Time budgets - SmartRelay 3 system

Time budgets are a convenient way to ensure regular identification media updating in the virtual network. If a time budget is issued, which must be uploaded to a gateway, users are forced to use their identification medium on the gateway on a regular basis. During this process, not only is the time budget uploaded, but other updates are also transmitted.

Identification media may become lost or stolen. Issuing a time budget ensures that identification media are automatically no longer authorised on the locking devices, because their time budget can no longer be uploaded once rights are withdrawn. Issuing a time budget thus increases security in the locking system.
