A multiplexer for scannings a plurality of controlled accesses, or doors, for determining if access or entry has been attempted. The scanner is coupled to a multiplicity of such accesses for determining if a key has been placed in its receptacle for operating a controlled latch. The key is preferably an electrical key having unlocking and identification information recorded thereon. If a key-in condition is determined, the scanner is momentarily stopped to allow the information derived from the key to be processed for determining the validity of the unlocking information and the key user identification information. This I.D. control information is also recorded for providing a record of the key usage relative to the time of day, the door and the recorded control information. If the control information is completely valid as to the unlocking information and the identification information only, then is the controlled latch operated.
