Reading keys in Space

Overview

If a lost key is found and the owner is unknown, you can read the key details by placing the key on the encoder, only if they belong to your Space system. If they do not belong to your system, the message "Invalid system code" displays.

See Encoder settings and Ethernet Encoders to know more about this device.

The action of reading keys only applies to physical keys.
