My key cutting machine must be sent back to Keyline for repairs, and I was told to send it by courier to Keyline's headquarters; should I do something in particular?
When the Keyline reseller states that the machine should be sent back to Keyline for repairs, there are two very important things to do: first, pack the machine back in its original packaging and secure it, if possible; then, place an adhesive label with the authorisation number, or write the authorisation number directly on the package, as provided by the reseller; this number must always be visible in order for the delivery to be accepted by Keyline.
In which countries does Keyline operate directly?
Keyline is structured so as to create a capillary network able to reach the greatest number of countries in the world, thanks to a thick distribution network; moreover, we operate directly in Italy (Keyline Italia), Germany (Keyline Germany, Velbert), China (Keyline Shanghai) and the USA Keyline USA, North Olmsted, Ohio).

My Versa/Power Lynx/Dezmo key cutting machine can be turned on, but the display remains blank, what should I do?

I cannot update the console of my 994 Laser via internet, how can I proceed?

I changed the sensor on my mechanical machine, can I calibrate the sensor-clamp group by myself?
This calibration may be carried out by the operator, save when it is discouraged by the manufacturer or supplier; in any case, it is strongly recommended to use the equipment supplied by Keyline together with its mechanical machines.
Are there any environmental limitations to the use of mechanical machines?
There are some limitations, which, however, are the limitations common to all power tools, such as excessive heat, strong humidity or the presence of magnetic fields in the surrounding areas; these factors, if significantly high, may compromise the correct operation of the machine, especially with regard to the electrical aspects.
Is it possible to use non-Keyline adapters or accessories on Keyline machines, and vice-versa?
It is possible in some cases, but never recommended; even when a non-original adapter can be mounted on a Keyline machine, the fact remains that it was not designed for that machine. For this reason, Keyline cannot guarantee that keys shall be cut correctly, and shall not be liable for damages or malfunctions caused by non-original products mounted on Keyline machines.
I need a spare part for my key cutting machine, but I cannot describe it with sufficient precision not to confuse it with other similar pieces; how can I order the correct spare?

I accidentally removed the original PH1D key from the Decryptor Ultegra machine during the cracking phase and now it no longer functions; what can I do?
In this case the key may be recovered with a special procedure carried out by the Decryptor Ultegra machine.

A message of "insert original key, then press write" shall appear: press F1 for 3 seconds, the "do not remove key! please wait" screen shall appear. Now you just wait, without removing the key from the machine. At the end of the procedure, test the operation of the key.

Why can the PH1A transponders of some Opel cars be cloned and others cannot?
This issue concerns the Opel and Vauxhall cars all over the world: usually the cars of these two brands do not have duplicable first generation Philips transponders, however, in a large number of cars the control units have a bug which allows their duplication; the Decryptor Ultegra machine, however, can know in advance which transponders can be duplicated and which cannot.
