General - G2 Transponder

Transponder 3064 is a digital "key" which is programmed with locking plan software and functions using contactless, wireless communication. All functions are activated by pressing a button. These include authorisation identification and the opening and locking of doors, gates, barriers, furniture locks and similar items. The transponder communicates with digital components – cylinders, SmartRelays and activation units – by sending and receiving constantly changing crypto codes, which ensure that the system cannot be misused.

As System 3060 functions using active transponder technology, the transponder features its own power source, a battery. Advantages over passive technologies include lower power requirements in the cylinder and the greater operating range.

SimonsVoss supplies different transponder models. These models are described in this document.

The second transponder generation G2 replaces the first generation G1. G2 features a more efficient communication protocol than G1. It will allow you to create larger, more efficient locking systems. Authorisations are also written on both the locking cylinder and the transponder, making programming more flexible.

A G2 system can also form a virtual network, i.e. authorisations and blocking lists are written on the transponder and transmitted to the locking system.

This manual looks at the specific differences between transponders. Read the G2 manual for more details.

The G2 transponder features both the G1 and G2 protocols and can thus be programmed for both locking system generations.
