SAFLOK Locks
Several lock models are available to function with System 6000. Saflok has two types of locks
which use different key media. The first type is a Magnetic reader lock that functions in
conjunction with Magstripe keys. The second lock type is RFID locks that use Mifare RFID keys
and FOB’s.
The locks contain a circuit board, which is connected to a battery pack. When a properly
encoded keycard is used at the lock, the circuit board reads the code on the keycard and sends
an electronic signal to release the locking mechanism. The guest then has approximately 5 ‐ 6
seconds to turn the lock handle and enter the room. If the lock handle is not turned within the
allotted time, the locking mechanism will automatically return to the locked position. The guest
will then reinsert the magstripe keycard or present the RFID key to gain access to the room.
Most SAFLOK locks feature a 1” steel dead bolt and a throw dead locking latchbolt with anti ‐
theft feature. When the handle is turned from inside the room, a panic feature retracts both
the latch and the dead bolt. With the automatic dead bolt ADB® feature, the locks have an
automatic dead bolt feature that projects a 1” dead bolt each time the door is returned to the
closed position, providing continuous deadbolt latching security. A privacy button or switch can
be activated from inside the room, preventing property personnel from entering the room,
except in emergencies.
Keycards
The keycard is the messenger to the lock, and provides the lock with the lock coding
information. The keycard carries the code information provided by the computer and keycard
encoder. When a properly encoded keycard is inserted or presented to the lock and removed,
the lock circuit board updates the code information in its memory, rendering previously issued
keycards invalid.
Emergency Lock Power Supply (ELPS)
The Emergency Lock Power Supply is used to restore battery power to a lock that has
insufficient internal battery power. When inserted into the lock, and inserting a cut valid
keycard, a lock with a dead battery can be activated. This capability eliminates the need to
forcibly remove a lock from a door because it has lost power. Once the door has been opened,
the batteries can be replaced.
Lock Programmer and Interrogator (LPI) Interface Probe / ELPS power override
The Lock Programmer and Interrogator Interface Probe serves as an interface between the LPI
Device and the lock. The probe can be used to program locks or to interrogate a lock when it is
necessary to obtain a history of the keycards that were used to access the lock. The smartcard
probe also allows an emergency override option when a dead battery condition occurs on a
lock. Once the door has been opened, the batteries can be replaced.
