Elock RFID Unlocking Alert

Definition / Description

The Elock RFID Unlocking Alert is triggered when the electronic lock (Elock) is unlocked using a registered RFID card or tag. This alert records and monitors every instance of RFID-based unlocking, helping ensure that only authorized personnel access secured cargo compartments, vehicles, or containers. By tracking RFID unlocking events, fleet managers can maintain access control, enhance accountability, and quickly detect any irregular or unauthorized unlocking attempts during operations.
