1. A device for authenticating user access to a secured item that is secured by an electronic lock, the device comprising:
- a) a housing;
b) a hardware processor;
c) software configured with instructions for receiving and processing inputs;
d) storage media, said software being stored thereon;
e) communications components configured to transmit and receive communications over a network;
f) a biometric reader coupled together with the processor and software to provide biometric inputs;
g) an electronic reader;
h) a touch screen configured to receive inputs; and
i) a key port configured to receive an electronic key;
wherein said software includes instructions for comparing inputs from said biometric reader and at least one other of said electronic reader and said screen, to determine whether the biometric input and the at least one other input verify a condition for providing access to a lock; and
wherein said software is programmed with instructions not to verify the condition when a survey input matches a predetermined response.

Abstract
A method for commissioning a collection of electronic locks by inserting the same electronic key into each of the locks and recording in the electronic key and internal code unique to that lock which identifies the lock and is needed to open the lock and a method for biometrically permitted controlled secure access to a container having one of the commissioned electronic locks. A data processing machine is configured to make biometric identifications, credential identifications and input identifications to verify users using the system and control and regulate user access to locks or electronic cylinders.
