Station mode refers to a workstation or office environment where there is typically one daily user of the lock. The lock is used repeatedly with one keypad code and/or a key fob. If the user has a key fob, that same key fob can be added to as many locks as desired enabling the user to have one key fob to operate all his or her locks. In addition, a total of 3 unique access codes and/or key fobs can be added for enterprise security management.
Locker mode refers to an environment such as a club, hotel, or school where the user selects a temporary code for access to a given locker or storage unit.
