Introduction
The KeyTag
The KeyAdvantage KeyTag is used to attach vehicles keys to KeyBoxes and to track the activity of the vehicle
keys.
•
Vehicle keys are securely attached to the KeyTag with a tamper-evident KeyTag attachment.
•
Because the KeyBox recognizes when a KeyTag is present, the KeyTag is used to track accesses to a
particular vehicle’s keys.
Physical Characteristics
•
The KeyTag has metal contacts that connect to the KeyAdvantage KeyBox. The contacts in the key
container recognize when the contacts of a KeyTag are present and therefore that the vehicle keys are
present.
•
When the KeyTag makes contact with the KeyBox, the KeyBox reads the serial number and the vehicle ID
information programmed into the KeyTag.
•
If the metal contacts of the KeyTag do not connect with the KeyBox, the key container will not completely
close, providing visible evidence that the vehicle keys are not present.
•
The KeyTag attachment is secured to the vehicle keys using a crimp tool. Do not use vehicle key rings on
the KeyTag.
KeyTag Programming
• KeyTags are assigned to and unassigned from specific vehicles using the KeyAdvantage software and
programming base.
See
“Assigning KeyTags” to Vehicles
