Priviledge (Status) Levels
The status levels define the ability of a user to perform specified
administrator and other tasks including the ability to view, edit, add, and
renew specified information categories. Four status levels can be
assigned at the FPT-40 terminal or from the Time & Attendance
software, and modified as required. These four (4) levels (see Defining
Privileges with Enrolling Admin Option on page 2-28) are:
 User
– person whose identity must be verified to punch and have
their attendance recorded in the Time & Attendance software.
Cannot perform any enroller, supervisor, and administrator functions.
 Enroller
– person who is authorized to enroll users or delete them
from the FPT-40 Fingerprint terminal.
 Supervisor
– person who can perform all operations, except set
advanced options and enroll a user with Admin priviledges.
 Administrator
– person who has access to all functions, including
system setup. (see procedure for clearing).
Proper Finger Placement
Make sure the fingerprint image captured contains the core part of
desired finger, because a fingerprint is the impression of the friction
ridges of all or any part of the finger. Also when enrolling a finger, use a
slightly adjusted angle for each finger press, i.e, one to the center, one
inclined slightly to the left, and a third inclined slightly to the right. If these
techniques are followed; the success rate should increase dramatically.
The correct way to place a finger on the sensor is:
 Place the finger flat on the center of the sensor surface
(see figure for front and side view).
