Electronic access control for pharmaceutical cabinets

Corvallis, Oregon (USA)

Videx unveils an access control solution for drug cabinets. For hospitals, long-term care facilities, and medical clinics that are experiencing problems securing their pharmaceuticals, CyberLock is a solution to that.

CyberLock quickly converts mechanical lock hardware to an electronic access control system. This is done by replacing the mechanical cylinders inside the existing cabinet locks with CyberLock electronic cylinders. No structural modifications or wiring are required for installation.

With CyberLock, healthcare facilities will gain key control and the ability to audit traffic to pharmaceutical cabinets throughout their departments. An administrator can track access to sensitive areas because both the electronic lock and key store a record of openings and denied entries. It is this detailed audit reporting that makes the CyberLock system very powerful. CyberLock eliminates incidents of unauthorized entry and provides reports of openings, and exceptions such as unauthorized attempts to gain access.

The system includes the CyberLock electronic cylinder that cannot be compromised by picking and the electronic key that cannot be duplicated. Each authorized user's key can be programmed to access selected locks on specific days and only during certain times on those days. A "lost" key can be quickly blocked from the system, making it inactive. In addition, keys can be set with a date to begin operation as well as an expiration date, eliminating the inconvenience and expense of re-keying.
