A method of staging a listed property for a real-estate showing including: receiving authorization information to access and control one or more internet of things (IoT) connected devices at the listed property from a first person via a first computer application accessed through a seller computing device; receiving showing settings and timing settings for each of the one or more IoT connected devices; and adjusting each of one or more IoT connected devices for the real-estate showing in accordance with the showing settings and the timing settings.

Method to operate the devices for real estate showings

An access control system includes a controller having a credential analyzer, a lock controlled by the controller, and a bezel. The bezel has a power jack electrically connected to the credential analyzer and lock such that the credential analyzer and lock can be operatively powered by an external power source through the power jack.

Bezel interface providing backup power to relay control circuitry

A key management system for controlling access to vehicle keys includes a key set, a key container and an electronic access device. The key set includes vehicle keys to a particular vehicle and a key tag associated with the vehicle keys having an electronically readable identifier. The key container has a key set storage area secured by an electronic lock and a circuit that detects when the key set is stored in the key set storage area. The access device is carried by a user to access the key container, and has a memory that is updated with at least the identifier of the key tag when the key container is successfully accessed.

System for managing physical assets

A decentralized key management system for controlling access to multiple vehicles among multiple users includes vehicle keys for the respective vehicles, individual locking key containers for the vehicles, electronic access devices for assignment to the users and a database. Each of the containers has a storage area within which a vehicle key or keys for one vehicle can be stored operable to unlock key containers if authorized. The access devices are operable to unlock the key containers if authorized. The access devices are programmable with information from the database such that an assigned access device is programmed with a specific user's access privileges for obtaining access to one or more of the vehicles in the system.
