Embodiments of the present disclosure establish unlock codes for groups of physical locks and include a single code reset or override device to render the combination of each lock settable. In embodiments, based on a request to reset a first unlock code associated with one of the physical locks, a replacement unlock code is generated and transmitted to a mobile communications device, whereupon the first unlock code can be changed to the replacement unlock code.

An actuation system used to actuate one or more buttons on a remote control device, such as a key fob, based upon commands that are generated from a mobile device. The actuation system includes an isolation enclosure that prevents RF signals from entering into or leaving an open interior of the enclosure. The enclosure surrounds a controller, a button actuator and the remote control device. The controller receives the command signals from the mobile device and converts the command signals into position commands that are used to activate the button actuator to move the plunger into alignment with one of the buttons on the key fob. The button actuator moves the plunger into contact with one of the buttons which generates an RF signal from the key fob. The controller utilizes a transmitting antenna to communicate a vehicle command signal out of the isolation enclosure for receipt by the vehicle.

Embodiments of the present disclosure transmit and/or reveal unlock codes for locks based on trigger events and include associating unlock codes and lock identifiers with different physical locks in a database, receiving an indication associated with one of the physical locks from a communications device, retrieving an unlock code associated with the physical lock and transmitting the unlock code to the communications device and/or displaying the unlock code via the communications device. The display can optionally be through a specific URL associated with the physical lock in accordance with embodiments herein. Further, the indication received can be as a result of the communications device being in close proximity to the lock and scanning a code or reading a tag associated with the lock.

A user device of a user of a service for the provision of a vehicle is described, wherein the user device is set up to send first device-specific information of the user device to the backend unit during a sharing process for a digital verification key as part of a registration for the service. The user device is further set up to send second device-specific information of the user device to the back-end unit for using the service during a sharing process for a digital use key, wherein the second device-specific information and the first device-specific information are the same.

A server issues a service key for using a designated vehicle and a plurality of one-time authentication keys based on a request from the mobile terminal, and distributes the one-time authentication key to the mobile terminal. The one-time authentication key is a disposable authentication key generated based on the service key, and has an expiration date. The one-time authentication key is consumed when the vehicular device authenticates the mobile terminal as a communication partner. The mobile terminal replaces the one-time authentication key stored in the mobile terminal at any time.
