The ValidiKey Ring is designed to allow CyberLock ValidiKey vaults to control mechanical keys alongside CyberKeys. Several mechanical keys can be attached to each ValidiKey Ring. To check out the ValidiKey Ring and its associated mechanical keys a user presents credentials to the vault, such as an approved access number or RFID card. The vault then unlocks and the ValidiKey Ring lights up to inform the user which keyring to take. An audit event is created when the ValidiKey Ring is removed and when it is returned, tracking who took the key. A reminder may be triggered if the ValidiKey Ring is not returned within a specified time.
