FAQs about the ekey bionyx system
Answers to questions about devices and administration
Why do I need an ekey bionyx account?
For security reasons, the ekey bionyx account is required for registration. This means that your account is linked to the components (ekey fingerprint scanner and ekey control unit) and to the authorized mobile devices. An ekey bionyx account is required for anyone who makes changes or adjustments to the system – i.e. for system administrators and administrators. Persons do not need an ekey bionyx account.

Can I select the Plus mode right away during activation?
Yes, you can choose between Local mode and Plus mode during activation.
What do I have to consider before activation?
Some functions such as remote opening or sending push messages are only activated if your ekey system is connected to the internet. A stable, password-protected 2.4 GHz WLAN network with at least WPA-PSK2 encryption is essential in the wireless range of the front door. You can also set up activation via a hotspot on your mobile device. The procedure for setting up the hotspot can be found in the operating instructions for your mobile device.
