I. TW9900 Description

The TW9900 System is the only interface with the readers effective in maintaining
an online, networked, and monitored entry accesses valuable for time and attendance
and preserve the authenticated entries done by PIN, Card, Fingerprint, and the
combination of these three access modes.

The software application is identified to be an ODBC compliant. This feature

enables to be easily integrated with existing systems sharing and reusing of databases.
This interfacing includes the importation of Cardholders or easily identified to as
system users and exportation of messages or logs parallel to the log generation in text
files.

II. How to install

Run or double-click Tw9900vdge.exe. This executable

files automatically opens the application right and then. It can be place anywhere on
your PC drive but just make sure it will be located at the safest drive.

TW9900 Software is a communication that connects the Long range reader and
the 986 Controller thru the server. It has 20 nodes to convert thru computer. It is
installed in server to recognize the vehicle enters and out by using the card that identify
by long range reader.

the toolbox .

C. There is several different situration of node will display in the node box.
a. : It means that node No.1 is on-lined right now and it is set as a
master node. Be care that there can be only one node to be “Master
Node”.

b. : It means that node No.2 is on-lined right now and it is set as a

slave node.

c. : It means that there is definition of node No.3 in database but the

node is off-lined right now.

d. : It means that node No.2 does exist in network but it is set as

ignored (disable) mode or there is no definition in database about
node No.2.

D. Cardholder - This lets you append and register Card holder and assign

Each cardholder has its unique number that is from 1 to 20000 for software.
Every identifier has a code inside it. When reader reads the code and controller will
decide whether to allow access or not. The code inside a card sometimes will be divided
into two parts. One is called “Sitecode”. The other is called “Cardcode”. Both these two
codes will be read and be compared in controller. When both codes are correct and the
others condition are correct, then the cardholder will be allowed access.

access.
b. Card only – If a cardholder has the correct card identification. Time zone
and door group is also authorized, then he can be allowed access.
c. Card and Password – It is to specify a cardholder must have a correct
card and his personal password, then he can be allowed access.

it will also check whether time is authorized or not. Time zone is from 0 to 61.
Specially, for time zone No.0 that is initially defined to be authorized for 24 hours
for everyday. If a cardholder is specified to use No.0, then he can be allowed
access any time in a day for seven days a week.

F. Door Group - This field is to select the access door group

for a cardholder. Same as “Time Zone” idea, access control system also will
check whether door number is authorized or not. Door Group is gathering many

associated password. The password is 4 digits that is from 0000 to 9999.

H. Expiry - The
cardholder may be limited the expired date. If is out of the date, the controller will
reject the cardholder access. When check box is then the authorization of
cardholder will be expired on specific date.

I. S/C Code Code(P): - It is to key-in the

sitecode and cardcode, the digit is from 0 to 99999 and it means that TW-990
series of controller can identify 10 digits code. User also has to make sure the
