Zusammenfassung:	A method is provided for operating an electronic lock system having a long range capability and a close proximity range capability, including identifying via the long range capability an initial contact between an electronic lock and a credential, authenticating the credential via the electronic lock, and unlocking the electronic lock when the authenticated credential is sensed via the close proximity range capability. An electronic lock system is also provided which includes a credential, an electronic lock configured to communicate with the credential and having a long range capability and a close proximity range capability. The long range capability identifies initial communication between the electronic lock and the credential, the electronic lock authenticates the identified credential, and the electronic lock unlocks when the authenticated credential is sensed via the close proximity range capability.
