Offline Locks

Offline locksets are battery-operated, stand-alone units, requiring no wiring from locks to CPU.

All electronics and batteries are mounted inside a durable, metal casing. The lock is opened using a standard, high or low coercivity magnetic stripe card, with tracks one or three open for encoding. This configuration provides maximum programming flexibility, allowing user information to be stored on one track (traditionally track two), while security access information is stored on another.

A manual key override is also provided for failsafe backup in emergency situations. The lock’s three-tiered operating mode of passage, card only, or cardplus-PIN code offers the flexibility to tailor security from building to building, room to room, even door to door. The lockset features an on-board memory, allowing you to control access privileges for cardholders down to exact location and time of day. It remembers who entered when and where. An optional feature also records if the door was propped open and how long it remained that way.
