AEII KeyBox. To communicate with the AEII KeyBox, your PDA must have the Palm operating system and needs to be inside an eKEY shell. The eKEY shell fits into the recessed area on the front of the AEII KeyBox, with the contacts on the shell matching the contacts on the KeyBox.

iBox. Your PDA communicates with the iBox using infrared technology. The infrared port on your PDA transmits information to the infrared lens on the front of the iBox. The distance should be less than a foot between your PDA and the iBox. Direct sunlight can interfere with the infrared communication, so you may need to shade the area between the PDA and iBox when you are accessing the key container.
