FPT-40 Installation & Operation Guide Page 3-13
Each time an employee punches at the FPT-40 Fingerprint terminal,
their finger template (map) will automatically be updated in the employee
database with the most recent template from the terminal. This feature is
for maintaining accurate fingerprint templates. However, if the employee
does not exist in the employee database, then a message will be
displayed in the message window at the bottom of the tab.
Once an employee is added to the Employee database, their template
will not automatically be uploaded unless the employee is removed and
re-enrolled at the terminal, or a punch is received from the terminal.
Once this is done, however, the employee’s template will be saved and
an assignment will automatically be created.
 Send Maps: Press the
button to send user(s) biometric
map(s) from the employee database in Time Guardian to the
selected terminals. Only employees assigned to terminals will be
sent. Employees are assigned to terminals from the Assignments
tab, or by polling. Because the “Send Maps” operation consists of
first clearing all templates from the terminal and then loading
assigned employee templates.
 Receive Maps: Press the
button to receive employee
templates from the selected terminal(s) to the Time Guardian
database. Only templates assigned to the selected terminals will be
uploaded to TG. Employees are manually assigned to the terminals
in the Assignments tab.
 Clear Maps: Press the
button to clear (delete) all assigned
employee templates from the terminal. Because the Clear Maps
operation consists of clearing all templates from the terminal, a
confirmation dialog box will appear before this command executes.
Caution! This command can be used to clear [reset] the terminal
if an Administrator has been setup and the password is
lost, etc. Access at the terminal to the menu options,
etc. maybe denied unless it is an Administrator.
