- The event logging of access events can be configured for each component (for a limited time as well), and also deactivated, e.g. for a Works Council conference room for which no event logging is allowed.
- The event logging in the backend and in the components is audit-compliant. This means that every locking process can be retraced precisely with a date and time. Consequently, this event logging cannot be tampered with and allows for more transparency than with any mechanical locking system.

If you use a smartphone to unlock the component, the battery status is also indicated in the online administration and saved as a maintenance task or even shown as a notification on the smartphone. If you prefer to rely on an emergency power device to also supply your cylinder with power once the battery has died, your locksmith will be able to provide you with one.
What happens if my smartphone's battery has died?

What happens if I lose my smartphone?
You can immediately delete any access authorisations you granted in the event that the smartphone is lost. You can immediately authorise an alternative smartphone (e.g. via the smartphone replacement function, which automatically deactivates the old smartphone).
What happens if I lose an identification medium?
We recommend you immediately deactivate this identification medium in the online administration and transfer this information (blacklist) to your cylinder using your smartphone. You are not on site? Each smartphone with maintenance authorisation to your locking system can also transfer this security information to your cylinder (without operating the component in the process).
