Applications

These SIGNO readers function in a Public Key (standard key) environment. If you use iCLASS SE or SE legacy readers with Keyscan Elite Key, you may still add or augment your system with these HID Signo series readers - but you must use IDSESO “bridge” credentials that will function with both iCLASS readers and Signo readers.

Keyscan Elite Key is no longer available
