The new large 7″ touch screen key register systems give you a common smart device interface. But that’s not all that’s new. Software database changes and transaction collection updated in real-time! If your company has multiple KeyWatchers, with users that need access to one or more KeyWatchers, there’s now a global user database allowing you to simply select which KeyWatcher(s) each user can have access to. Global Profiles determines a user’s access. There’s an on-screen scrollable list of key sets and groups the user has access to creating an intuitive user experience. We just keep making key management better.
Of course, you still get our fully scalable modular design. The latest KeyWatcher Key Management System offers you a new touch screen for easy user navigation. Its illuminated key storage system makes finding keys a cinch, while using minimal wall space. The random key return comes standard to allow you to return any key set to any slot, eliminating the confusion and worry of misplaced key sets. feature allows you to return any key set to any slot, eliminating the confusion and worry of misplaced key sets. That’s Morse Watchman’s’ outside the box thinking – right inside the box.
The Morse access control and audit tracking key management systems offers tight security and eliminates manual log errors with an indisputable audit trail. Reduces the number of times you might need to re-key from people unintentionally take-home keys and frees up manpower for other important duties!
Removing key sets from the KeyWatcher is as simple as a user entering their User ID and PIN, or as sophisticated as requiring 1 to 3 users to login in using an access card or fingerprint reader. You have peace of mind in knowing that the door does NOT open until an authorized user(s) login in and the user(s) has access to the pre-selected key set(s). Multiple Sets only require a single login for each authorized user. The KeyWatcher automatically records this information in a database to provide you with a complete and indisputable audit key report trail. Unauthorized access can trigger alarms locally and centrally. You can also locate which KeyWatcher Touch a specific key is in, or determine who has it out, with the new KeyFind feature.

KeyBank Touch
Budget friendly and limited security…
The KeyWatcher and KeyBank systems are identical with exception to one feature. The KeyWatcher has locking locations. The KeyBank has non-locking locations, and therefore is less secure and available for a substantial lessor price. With the KeyWatcher, when the door is open, only the key set(s) that were requested and determined authorized can be removed. All other sets are locked in place. With the KeyBank system none of the key sets are locked in place. Therefore, even users that are not supposed to have access to a key set can still remove it. However, a record of authorized and unauthorized key set removals will be created.

A variety of access control devices to interface with
Like a door to a building or room, the KeyWatcher stands by waiting for a valid signal from your preferred method of access validation. The KeyWatcher comes with a standard touch screen. Users enter a 4-6 digit UserID and a 4-digit PIN. There are also other available access methods as detailed below.
The initial standby Start screen mode.
4-6 Digit UserID + 4-Digit PIN Combination Login
From this screen a user can either enter a 4-6 digit UserID and a 4-digit PIN or use one of the other two optional methods below. Note that you can also optionally disable UserID login when Fingerprint or card readers have been implemented.
Fingerprint (most common method)
An image of the fingerprint is NOT stored. Instead the unique reference points of a fingerprint called minutiae points or PK’s. These are bifurcations (splits), end of ridges, etc. Using algorithms, a mathematical score is created from these PK’s for referencing against future biometric comparisons. The information from a stored template CANNOT be recreated to duplicate the user’s fingerprint. The stored template is proprietary to a MorphoTrak system and CANNOT be used for any other function such as background checks, law enforcement, or civil identity systems.
Card Reader Login Option
Your choice of magnetic card strike or proximity RFID card readers and be integrated to eliminate entry of UserID. The system can be configured to optionally require a PIN number with the card read.
Card Reader Relay Input Option
This feature allows the KWTouch login to be locked at all times, unless the relay input has been triggered by a valid reply from your access control system.
How it works:
The KWTouch has an input connection on the optional Card Reader/Relay board. This normally open input is monitored by the board. When there is a momentary closure between the RLY and GND connections, the system will unlock the touch screen and allow login input.
Login Input methods allowed after unlocking:
- Fingerprint scan
- Secondary card reader directly interfaced with the KeyWatcher
- Single card reader: The weigand wiring can be split to connect to your access control system and directly to the KWTouch. The 1st card swipe would unlock the KWTouch and allow for a 2nd swipe on the same card and reader to login to the KWTouch for key access.
Once the user logs out, the system is automatically relocked.
Note: Once the relay input is activated, the system will be unlocked waiting for a login for 10 seconds. If no activity is detected, then the system will relock waiting for the relay input.
Example of Use:
- If the KeyWatcher is in an active area or has public access where the system could be subject to tampering.
- A card reader connected to an access control system would be placed next to the KWTouch.
- The access control system would need to verify the card swipe, then make a momentary closure across our relay input contacts. This would activate our system.

The new "Home KeyWatcher" configuration options! Have it your way!
This unique unparalleled configuration provides flexibility in where your key sets can be returned.
- Random: Return key to any KeyWatcher and any slot on the same site. Otherwise known as "KeyAnywhere".
- By KWTouch: Return to specific cabinet, but any slot within a specific KeyWatcher system
- By KWTouch and Box: Return to specific slot and cabinet within a specific KeyWatcher system
- By KWTouch, Box and Slot: Return to specific a KeyWatcher, cabinet and slot
If the need arises, there's unique configuration called "KeyAnywhere" that allows a key set to be returned to AnyWhere in ANY KeyWatcher, and easily locate which KeyWatcher it's in.
Remote Touch Screen
This is an example of the optional Remote Display for use in an industry such as casino's were the KeyWatcher cabinet would be mounted just outside the cage securing sensitive key sets, and the remote display on the inside. Or in a correctional facility the cabinet would be inside the control room and the remote outside it. This configuration is beneficial when there are key sets that require more then one user login before they are released.
Multi User Key Removal & Returns
Key Removals: The ability to control how many total logins will be required for a user to remove the key. Changing this will default the number of logins required for returning the key to the same setting. The number of logins required for returning the key can be independently changed, however. This feature is useful in cases where two people are required to be present during the key removal.Key Returns: The ability to control the total number of logins that will be required for a user to return a key. The number of logins required will be initially set by the number of logins required for removal. However, it can be changed to another setting if desired. This feature is useful in cases where three people are required to be present during the key removal.
