Generation 1 CyberKeys are based on the CyberKey design architecture revision from 2003. | CyberKey X is a hybrid of Generation 1 and Generation 2 CyberKeys. It features increased Audit Trail and Lock List capacity compared to Gen 1 keys but does not offer the lock programming capabilities of Gen 2 keys. | Generation 2 CyberKeys are a new, more capable design of CyberKey that originated in 2014 with CyberKey Air and CyberKey Plus in 2016. | |

CyberKey Air, CyberKey Plus, CyberKey Blue 2, CyberKey Flash, CyberKey Air2, CyberKey USB, CyberKey Blue 3, CyberKey X II, and CyberKey Go are Generation 2 CyberKeys. All come with the same durable fiber nylon case and replaceable brass tip. Red and Blue LEDs (Red LED on CyberKey X II) combine with a multi-tone beeper to provide feedback to the key holder.
-
CyberKey USB and CyberKey Blue 3 ...
- have a standard micro USB port for charging and communications
- can communicate to CyberAudit-Web using CyberLink 2 via the USB port
- have both LEDs and a beeper, for visual and audio feedback. The LEDs in the back of the key make it ideal for use with CyberKey Vaults.
- have an infrared port in the tip which may be used with an IR Encoder for communication
CyberKey Air and CyberKey Air2 have wireless radios that provides connectivity to
WPA2 PSK wireless LANs to enable the key to upload audit trail and update
operating instructions.
CyberKey Blue2, CyberKey Blue3, CyberKey Go, and CyberKey Flash have Bluetooth® radios that enable them
to connect to portable devices running the
CyberAudit Link application.
CyberKey Flash and CyberKey Air2 add a multi-line display with buttons to show a
customizable menu
of function and status operations. Both have IR transceivers in their key tips and can
open FlashLocks
(requires the FlashLock SEM). They can also open
Doors via a Flex II
FlashReader (requires the
Door Support Module).
In addition, CyberKey Flash can be a 13.56MHz RFID Access Card tag.
CyberKey Blue 3 has a button that when pressed and released,
turns on the Bluetooth radio for 45 seconds.
And like CyberKey Flash and CyberKey Air 2, pressing and holding the button for
1 second will cause CyberKey Blue 3 to look for a FlashLock or Door for two seconds via the
infrared tranceiver in its key tip.
CyberKey X II and CyberKey Go are powered with a replaceable CR-2 lithium battery.
All CyberKeys have memory that contains encrypted access codes, a list of locks it may access, schedules of dates and times for accessing locks, and a begin/end date range during which the key will operate. A CyberKey also contains an audit trail of up to 3,900 access events (12,000 with CyberKey X and Generation 2 CyberKeys). Each time the key touches a CyberLock, it records the lock ID, date, time, and authorization status.
