Battery
Terminals operate using power supply from a standard power outlet. Inside the terminal,
there is an RTC battery for the running of the clock. Charge the terminal for at least 3 hours
straight before you start using it. When there is a serious delay in time or the clock keeps
on restarting, the RTC needs to be replaced.
External power supply

to the terminals. Charge the mini UPS sufficiently for optimum performance.

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 attend-
ance.
Privileges can be assigned accordingly based on individual permissions. Likewise, a Sys-
tem Administrator can have his rights restricted or be given full control. Access controls
such as the ability to modify settings within the menu will be barred when a System Ad-
ministrator has been assigned to a device. The role of an administrator plays a crucial role
in the vitality of the data in these devices.
For example, Network Administrator(s) can be allowed to configure communication set-
tings but not to enroll new users.
Three levels of authority govern each device:
• Super Administrator
The top of the hierarchy, Super Administrators have, full access to all functions.
• Administrator
The rights of an Administrator are limited by the permissions granted by the Super Ad-
ministrator. For example, a Network Administrator can be allowed to configure commu-
nication settings but are not allowed to enroll users.
• User
Normal users have no access to any functions within the device.
By default, every user enrolled is a normal user. Super Admin and Administrator roles are
allocated from the list of normal users, either directly from the terminal or assigned via
our software.
