Key Devices are inserted into a USB Key Device Reader that is attached to your computer's USB port. Key Devices contain Advanced (Hardware) Keys.

When a Key Device is properly attached, all of its Advanced Keys, both Advanced System Keys (ASKs) and Advanced WACN Keys (AWKs), are automatically loaded every time the CPS is opened. To manually load Advanced Keys, also see Load Advanced Keys.

 

All System Keys (including Software System Key Files) currently loaded into the CPS can be viewed at any time from the System Key Report.
