b. Touch Unlock
The EZlock has a built-in touch
sensor, with your smartphone and the
Mobile App must run on the
background (provide authentication
to the EZLock Device) . The distance
between EZlock and smartphone is less than 30 cm (12 inches).
When you come back from outside (approaching to the lock),
EZlock detects the BLE is enabled and connects to the
smartphone, EZlock enables ‘Touch Sensor’. You can use two
fingers to touch Keyway and Key house at same time (as shown
on Fig-14) to open the door at this moment. You can use ‘Touch
Unlock’ at any time, the EZlock will flash Blue light few time. This
message indicates the BLE link* is established and unlock/lock
door function will perform within 3 second for you.
Hint: *BLE link issue: Because Bluetooth use battery power,
smart phone will turn-off Bluetooth to conserve the energy.
EZlock App will try to wake your smart phone and ask OS to
enable BLE link. This will take few seconds to complete. You
can remove the App from background to disable this function.
