Temporary access codes

Temporary access codes allow you to grant access to an individual or a group of people without requiring them to create an iLOQ ID. Access is granted using a temporary code, making this function suitable for short-term or occasional access needs. You can define the locking devices that can be unlocked with the code and set how long the code remains valid.

Note: Temporary access codes can only be used with doors equipped with an iLOQ NFC reader with a keypad.
