Chapter 1 Users Introduction FingerTec devices recognize users by face recognition, fingerprint, card access or a set of pin numbers. The Date, Time Data and User ID will be stored in its internal storage upon verification and will be used to generate reports in accordance with the user’s attendance. Privileges can be assigned accordingly based on individual permissions. Likewise, a System Administrator can have his rights restricted or be given full control.
Methods of Enrollment Fingerprint Enrollment Please assign an enrollee as a Super Admin before you proceed to enroll any other credentials, as the menu options are only available to a Super Administrator. It is recommended that all users enroll two fingerprints for each user ID. The first fingerprint will serve as a template for primary access where the other fingerprint will be used as a backup in the rare event that your first fingerprint is unreadable.
Card Enrollment Please check the technical specifications of the device to ensure that this function is supported before continuing. The default card type is 64-bit, 125kHz RFID card. MIFARE and HID card systems are available upon request.
