Chapter One: Handling Instructions
1.1 - Operation Environment
Dear Customers, First of all thank you for purchasing our product, the Fingerprint Time
Attendance Machine! For the optimal use and maintenance of the product, please
read the manual carefully before using it.
1. Do not please leave the machine under the strong sunshine. It evidently
effects the collection of fingerprints and lead to failure of fingerprint
recognition.

2. The temperature span of the fingerprint’s working is 0°C - 45°C.

1.2 - A brief introduction for the System

The fingerprint time attendance system consists of two parts: the fingerprint time
attendance terminal and fingerprint time attendance management software.

The terminal is mainly responsible for the registration of the employees’ fingerprint and

daily check on work attendance. And the software is mainly to read the work

attendance record of the terminal, to process the statistics by following the attendance

rules set by the administrator, and to generate various kinds of statistics report forms.

There are four modes for the communication of the terminal and the software: RS232,
RS485, TCP/IP and U disk. RS232 and RS485 are the standard communication
modes of the terminal.

1.3 - Press Method

When installation of the terminal is completed, the fingerprints will be registered first
and then followed by the validating operation. The fingers recommended for
registration are the forefinger and middle finger.

Correct press method: Press with your finger right on the fingerprint gathering window,
with the fingerprint’s centre aligning to the centre of the gathering window as much as
possible. Finger press method is shown as the following:

data on inductive card of the users or the administrators, and to perform the
functions such as examining records, setting arithmetic, security and
downloading records etc..

2. Setting: To set the system information of the terminal.

3. System Information: To examine the information recorded in the terminal.

Chapter Three: Basic Usage Instructions

3.1- Basic Usage

3.1.1 - Installing finger print time attendance terminal

A. Location: according to the place of the screw holes which are used to fixed the iron
board, locate four holes on the wall district of hanging the finger print time
attendance terminal

B. Punching holes: Use tools to punch holes on the decided wall districts of four holes
and its size should meet the standard screw

C. Fasten the iron board: place the iron board on the appropriate place of the four
holes.（The influence of strong magnetic and electric field should be avoided when
fastening）Then put the screw into the holes and fasten the iron board

D. Hanging the terminal: hang the terminal on the iron board and fastening them with
the bolts.

E. Turn on the terminal: Connect the electrical wire one side with the terminal and the
other side with 220V electric socket. Then Press button.

3.1.2 - Fingerprint Registration

There are three registration validation modes available for the terminal: fingerprint,
password and inductive card. Generally speaking, machine of a certain type will have
two registration modes: one is fingerprint and password mode and the other is
fingerprint and inductive card mode.

When registering the fingerprint, each person will have an exclusive ID number, which
is the corresponding number of the user information in the time attendance
management software to the record in the terminal. Each ID number can register 3
fingerprints and 1 password (or inductive card) at most. When the machine is in
normal function, the interface will be as follows:

 Fingerprint Time Attendance Terminal Manual
2> When in the registration, at the time of inputting ID, only to input the non-zero part
and the latter numbers is ok. For example, the staff number is 00050 but the input
number should be 50.
3> When in the inductive card registration, after entering the “inductive card input” and
inducting your card, the ID number will automatically display on the screen, then press
“OK” to reserve and the registration finished.
4> After registration, please check your fingerprint to make sure the efficiency of the
fingerprint registration. The checking steps are as following: on the common working
interface, press your registered fingerprint and if the verification is success, your
fingerprint is clear, the registration is good. If the verification is difficult to pass, the
registered fingerprint is unqualified or the fingerprint is not clear. Please over register
or change another finger to register.
3.1.6 Users Verification
When verifying the fingerprint, firstly ensure whether registered. Fingerprint
verification should notice the path must be correct.

User 1: N when verifying the fingerprint, if the verification is successful, then a vocal
instruction of success verification “Thank you” will be prompted

User 1:1 Fingerprint verification firstly input your registration number then press
fingerprint, a vocal instruction of success verification “Thank you” will be prompted,

Safe security level setting is the balance value of FRR and FAR. Misrecognition
means to fingerprint terminal recognize the fingerprint of user A as use B. The FAR
means to the terminal has denied the registered fingerprint. The safety number of 1: N
is based on the safety-level value of all users however the safety number of 1:1 is
based on the safety-level value of the special user which is hard to pass.

Generally, users can set the safety-level value of all users （the default value of 1：N

is 1）But for some special user who are hard to pass, they can use validation of 1:1

(ID + fingerprint). If their fingerprints are hurt, manager can decline their safety-level

value to advance the rate of validation.

Setting Items Explanation

The terminal will not give out alert when the records are
overflowed. If the management records are overflowed,
No
then the terminal is incapable to store the overflowed
management record

The terminal will give out alert according to the value set
to inform the overflow of management record. If the value
is 100, then the alert will be given out from the 900th
1-255
record. If the management records are overflowed, then
the terminal is incapable to store the overflowed
management record.

2> System log warn

Setting Items Explanation

Indicates that the terminal will not give out alert when the
outgoing and incoming records are overflowed. If the outgoing
No
and incoming records are overflowed, then the overflowed
records can not be stored.

The terminal will inform that the records are overflowed

according to the value set. If the outgoing and incoming
1 - 1500
records are overflowed, then the terminal will be incapable to
store the overflowed records.

Factory Setting 1000

Note: Users are informed by message and voice prompt that the management record
storage space is about to be full. Once record alert is given out, please download the
record as soon as possible.

3> Re-verify

Indicates that the terminal will not inspect the repeat

No
checks on work attendance.

Indicate the terminal will inspect the repeat checks on work

1 - 255 attendance according to the value set with the unit
“Minute”.

Factory Setting No

Note: To inspect whether users check on work attendance repeatedly, if the user
check on work attendance repeatedly, no repeated record will be stored.

Factory Setting 1

Note: Machine number is the unique ID for the machine. If there are two machines
with the same machine number in the network, not only can they not work properly,
but also the management software will be confused when acquiring the time
attendance record. So the uniqueness should be attached with attention in network
use.

5.1 - Interface Definition

There are three types of interfaces for the fingerprint time attendance terminal: 9-pin
RS232 interface, RJ45 interface and expand 8-pin external extension interface.

RJ45 Figure5‐1 RS232

RS232 interface provides RS232 communication, Lock or Wiegand output function;

while RJ45 interface provides RS485 and TCP/IP communication function.

5.2.2 - RJ45 Interface

The interface provides RS485 and TCP/IP communication function。 For different
terminals, some of them provide two RJ45 interfaces and thus the definition depends
on the number of RJ45 interfaces of the terminal. And the definition is as follows:
