Black-and-White Screen Series IV

1 Instruction for Use
Thank you for using our black-and-white (B&W) screen series fingerprint recognition terminal (FRT). Please read this
manual carefully before using this product for a comprehensive understanding so as to avoid causing unnecessary
damages to the product.
Protect the FRT from exposure to direct sunlight or strong beam as strong beam greatly affects the fingerprint
collection and leads to fingerprint verification failure.
Avoid using the FRT outdoors in summer. The working temperature of B&W screen series ranges from 0–40C. The heat
dissipated during long-term operation may easily lead to response slowdown and verification pass rate decrease. It
is recommended to use sunshades and heat sink devices for protection of the FRTs outdoors. We recommend you to
use the FRT properly so as to achieve the optimal recognition effect and verification speed.
1. Recommended fingers
Recommended fingers: The index finger, middle finger or the ring finger; the thumb and little finger are not
recommended (because they are usually clumsy on the fingerprint collection screen).
2. Finger Placement
1) Correct finger placement:
Place the finger to the centre of the sensor and keep flat.
2）Incorrect finger placement:

Not flat to the surface Off-center
Slanting Off-center
Note:
Please enroll and verify your fingerprints by using the proper finger placement mode to avoid degradation of
verification performance due to improper operations.
3. LED Colors and Their Meanings

B&W screen FRT works normally: The green LED blinks once every other second.
Verification fails: The red LED is solid on for 3 seconds.
Verification succeeds: The green LED is solid on for 3 seconds.
Note:
If the LED display is inconsistent with the above conditions, please contact our technical personnel.

Black-and-White Screen Series 2

2 Basic Concepts
This section introduces the definitions and descriptions of the following basic concepts:
 User enrollment
 User verification
 Match threshold
 User ID
 Authority class
The most important two functions supported by B&W screen series are user enrollment and verification.
2.1 User Enrollment

A user can enroll up to 10 different fingerprints using one ID number to have multiple verification selections.
Theoretically all the fingers of a user need to be enrolled so that the user can use any of the enrolled fingerprints for
recognition even if he/she forgets which fingerprint has been enrolled.
Generally it is recommended that a user shall enroll at least two fingerprints, for example, the index fingers of both
hands, so that the user can still perform fingerprint matching even if one or more of his/her fingers get cut or
damaged.
2.2 User Verification

When a user scans his/her fingerprint on the fingerprint reader(1:N); or enters a password / placing his/her finger
after entering an ID number(1:1), the device compares the newly scanned fingerprint with a fingerprint stored in
template. The fingerprint template is used to check the user ID. Upon verification, the system displays a prompt
about whether the verification succeeds or not and then stores the successful matching record in the device.
2.3 Match Threshold

The match threshold is set to achieve a trade-off between the possibilities of false rejection and false acceptance.
The false acceptance means the fingerprint recognition device mistakes the fingerprint of user A for that of user B,
while the false rejection means the fingerprint recognition device refuses to recognize an enrolled fingerprint.
You can set a match threshold for all users. For fingerprints that fail to pass the verification, you can adopt the “ID +
Fingerprint” verification mode (that is, 1:1 match) so that the system adopts the data set in 1:1 match threshold
when matching the fingerprints.
If a user’s fingers are severely worn out or damaged, lower the match threshold (see Table 2-1).
 Note: The false acceptance rate (FAR) and false rejection rate (FRR) mutually influence each other. Reducing the
FAR will increase the FRR, and vice versa. The default match threshold is 35 and the default 1:1 match threshold
is 15. Table 2-1 lists the settings of match thresholds in different scenarios.
Table 2-1 Match Threshold
Match threshold
FRR FAR
1:N 1:1
High Low 45 25
Medium Medium 35 15
Low High 25 10
2.4 User ID
When enrolling fingerprints, a user will be allocated with an unused ID. When the user starts to verify his/her identity,
this ID is used to associate the fingerprint feature template or password.

You can enter the ID through the mini keyboard or other storage means, for example, the RF card (the fingerprint
recognition device must be configured with the RF card reader).
2.5 Authority Classes

The B&W screen series FRTs include four authority classes:
 Users: refer to those who are required to verify their identity for a purpose, for example, opening the door
through the B&W screen FRT or keeping their entry/exit records.
 Registrars: refer to the users who are granted the right to enroll or delete users.
 Administrators: refer to the users who are granted the right to perform all operations except performing
advanced settings and enrolling administrators and super administrators.
 Super administrators: refer to users who have access to all system functions and modify all system settings.
Note: When the super administrators are not enrolled, the registrars can enroll the administrators and super
administrators. Similarly, the administrators can enroll super administrators in the absence of super administrators.
Once super administrators are enrolled, administrators of lower class cannot enroll those of higher class.
2.6 Main Interface

The first interface displayed on the screen upon equipment power-on is referred to as the “Initial Interface”, as
shown in the following figure.

3 Enrollment and Verification
This chapter introduces how to enroll users on the B&W screen series. Further, it describes how to verify the validity
of enrolled fingerprints.
This chapter includes the following parts:
 Enroll users
 Enroll backup fingerprints
 Prompts for successful enrollment
 Verify identity.
 Administrator enrollment
 Delete enrollment data
Note:
To enroll a new user, you must have the authority of a registrar, administrator or super administrator. For details, see
2.5Authority Classes.
3.1 Enroll a User

If no administrator has been enrolled, any user has the right to enroll a new user. If an administrator has already
been enrolled, you can only enroll a new user after passing the administrator verification.
The RFT supports the following three enrollment modes that respectively apply to the general public with three
different types of fingerprint quality:
 Fingerprint enrollment: This enrollment mode applies to the majority of the general public with good quality
fingerprints.
 Fingerprint + Password enrollment: This enrollment mode applies to a small portion of the general public who
can enroll their fingerprints successfully but have difficulty in fingerprint verification due to their poor
fingerprint quality.
 Password enrollment: This enrollment mode applies to about one percent (the actual number may vary slightly)
of the general public who are unable to enroll their fingerprints successfully.
If an administrator has already been enrolled, you need to verify the administrator identity by pressing MENU. The
system then prompts you to swipe your finger or enter a password for administrator verification.
Note: If no administrator has been enrolled, administrator verification is not required.

1). Access Control Function Description
The setting items for each user include: the group that the user belongs to, and the available access time segments
for group and user. User grouping means the allocation of a user to a certain group, for example, Group 1 or Group 2.
A group or user can be set with three preset access time segments at most, and these time segments have an “OR”
relation with one another (that is, unlocking is available for a group/user at any one of these time segments). For
details on the relationship between the use of group TSs and the user TPs, see 4.5.3 User Access Control Settings.
In a simple word, the unlocking conditions for an enrolled user are as follows:
① The group to which the user belongs must lie in an access combination (or it can share the same access
combination with other groups and unlock together with them).
② The current unlocking time must remain within any one of valid access time segments.
Newly enrolled users are classified into Group 1 by default. The default group time segment is “1”. When Group 1 and
time segment 1 both adopt factory defaults, the newly enrolled users are in Open state. (If a user modifies the access
control settings, the system will also change these settings accordingly.)If the group to which a user belongs is
inexistent in access combination settings, the user can only mark his/her attendance but cannot unlock.
2). Access Control Verification Flow

4.5.1 Define Time Segments
Time segment is the minimum time unit for access control setting. The entire system can be defined with a
maximum of 50 time segments. Each time segment is divided into 7 time buckets, that is, one week. Each time
bucket is the valid time segment within 24 hours every day. Every user can be set with up to 3 time segments which
have an “OR” relation with one another. The verification time is deemed valid only if it remains within one of these
time segments. The time bucket format is HH:MM-HH:MM using a 24-hour clock.
If the end time is earlier than the start time (23:57–23:56), unlock is prohibited for a whole day. If end time is later
than the start time (00:00–23:59), unlock is valid within this time bucket.
Valid time segments for unlock: whole day (00:00–23:59), or the period from start to end time.
 Tip: The default time segment 1 indicates the whole day access (that is, the newly enrolled users are allowed to
unlock).

Multiple time segments can be defined as required and the entire system can be defined with 50 time segments at
most.
4.5.2 Define Grouping Functions
By using the grouping functions, you can divide users into different groups and combine diverse groups to form
different access combinations, so as to facilitate access control management. The system defines 5 groups: Group 1,
Group 2, Group 3, Group 4 and Group 5. Newly enrolled users belong to Group 1 by default, but they can also be
reassigned to other groups.
Group TS: This parameter is used to set the unlocking time of groups. In Group TS, select a set TP No.
The newly enrolled user adopts the time segment of Group 1 by default, but after resetting the group that he/she
belongs to, the user will use the related time segment of the new group. Therefore, the default time segment of
every group shall be defined in advance.
For details on how to Use Grp TPs, see 4.5.3User Access Control Settings.
Tip: The time segment of Group 1 is numbered “1” by default. (That is, the newly enrolled users are allowed to
unlock by default.)

4.5.3 User Access Control Settings
The user access control settings can be performed based on user requirements.
You can access the User Acc Opts menu to query the access control setting state of a user.
The User Acc Opts menu includes the options: Belong to GRP, Group TS, User TS, Group VerType, and Individual
VerType. .
 Belong to GRP: Divide the enrolled users into several groups to facilitate management.
 Group TS: Set whether the user adopts the default time segments of the group that he/she belongs to.
 User TS: Set the user's unlocking time and select a set time segment number.
 Group VerType: Set whether the user adopts the verification types of the group that he/she belongs to.
 Individual VerType: Select a verification type for an individual user without using group verification types or
affecting other group members’ verification types.
 Note: 1. Relationship between group time segments and user time segments.
The value of the option Use Grp TPs only works for the following user time segments:
(1) If “Use Grp TPs” is set to Y, the user time segment will be automatically assigned the time segment No. of the
group that the user belongs to. (Group time segments must be set in advance.)
(2) If the user time segment changes, “Use Grp TPs” will be automatically set to N.
2. Relationship between group verification types and individual verification types.
(1) If the option Group VerType is set to Y, the user will use the group verification type.
(2) If the option Group VerType is set to N, the user will use the individual verification type.
Examples:
A. Users 00001 and 00002 are classified into Groups 1 and 2 respectively.

Belong to GRP 1
Use Grp TPs Y
TP 1 1
TP 2 8
TP 3 40
VERType FP
Use Grp VS Y
User 00001:
i. User 00001 belongs to Group 1 and adopts the time segment of Group 1 (The user time segment No. is the
group time segment No).
User 00001 is allowed to unlock within the time segments 1, 8 and 40.
ii. If user 00001 adopts a group verification type (password verification), this type shall prevail even if user 00001
selects another individual verification type.
B. Select User Acc Opts and set the UserID to 00002.
User Acc Opts ▲
UserID: 00002
ESC OK
Press OK to display the setting interface of user 00002.
If the user time segments are numbered 1 and 20, the system will automatically set the option Use Grp TPs to N.
To set “Group VerType” to N, set the option VERType (individual verification type) to FP as shown in the following
figure:
User 00002 Opt ▲
Belong to GRP 2
Use Grp TPs N
TP 1 1
TP 2 20
TP 3
VERType FP
Use Grp VS N
User 00002:
i. User 00002 belongs to Group 2 and adopts the user time segment instead of group time segment (which means
user 00002 is allowed to unlock within the time segments 1 and 20).
If user 00002 wants to adopt the group time segments, he/she can select Y, and then the user time segment No. will
be automatically assigned the group time segment No. If user 00002 wants to adopt the user time segments, he/she
can directly modify the user time segment No. and the system will automatically set the option Use Grp TPs to N.
ii. The individual verification type adopted by user 00002 is fingerprint verification.
4.5.4 Definition of Unlock Combinations
The unlock combinations are defined to control the unlocking. For example, to make all enrolled users unable to
unlock, leave all the ten unlock combinations BLANK.

The unlock combinations are user-defined combinations to unlock the door, and each combination consists of
different groups. The unlock combinations specify the group number(s) permitted to unlock the door, leaving the
user verification sequence out of account. For example,
 “123” means the door unlocks only after at least three users respectively from Group 1, Group 2 and Group 3
pass the verification within the specified time segment.
 “4” means the door unlocks after one user of Group 4 passes the verification.
You can define a maximum of 10 unlock combinations for the FRT and the door unlocks as long as one of them
passes the verification.
Tip: The default unlock combination is "1” (that is, new enrolled users can unlock the FRT by default).
On the initial interface, press Menu → Options → Access Options → Access Comb, as shown in the following
figure:
Access Comb ▲
Comb 1 1
Comb 2
Comb 3
Comb 4
Comb 5
Comb 6
Comb 7
Comb 8
Comb 9
Comb 10
The default unlock combination is "1” and other unlock combinations are left blank.
To make all users unable to unlock, leave all these ten unlock combinations BLANK.
To enable unlocking for some of the groups, you need to define the unlock combinations, as shown below:
Example 1:
Access Comb ▲
Comb 1 123
Comb 2 4
Comb 3 24
Comb 4 45
Comb 5 15
Comb 6
Comb 7
Comb 8
Comb 9
Comb 10
As shown in the figure above, five unlock combinations are set in total:
Unlock combination 1: 123.
Unlock combination 1: The door unlocks only after at least three users respectively from Group 1, Group 2 and
Group 3 pass the verification within the specified period.
Unlock combination 2: The door unlocks as long as one user from Group 4 passes the verification.
Unlock combination 3: The door unlocks only after at least two users respectively from Group 2 and Group 4 pass
the verification within the specified period.

To sum up, the door unlocks only when users of each group in an unlock combination pass the verification within
the specified period.
 Note:
1. The verification will fail in any of the following cases:
 The user time segment number is not selected.
 The default group time segment number is not selected (when the group time segment is used).
The verification does not remain within any of the user-defined time segments.
 The time segment is defined as “Disabled”.
2. Users set a time segment within which the verification fails:
If the conditions of unlock combination 2 are met, users of “Invalid Group” cannot unlock but are allowed to
register attendance. (If there are other users meeting the unlocking condition in Group 4, then the unlock
combination 2 is allowed to unlock)
If the conditions of unlock combinations 1, 3, 4 and 5 are met, users of “Invalid Group” cannot unlock but are
allowed to register attendance.
2) Example 2:
To set the vault of a bank to unlock only in the presence of three people, proceed as follows:
These three people respectively belong to Group 2, Group 4 and Group 5 and are granted the right to unlock within
the same time segment. Select “Comb 1” and press OK. Then enter “245” through the numeric pad and press ESC to
exit and save the setting.
 Tip: Once the “245” combination is set, combinations such as 24, 25 and 45 are not allowed.
4.5.5 Lock Driver Duration
The time duration of electronic lock works from open to close when user's verification succeeds (In case the door is
closed).
To set this duration, proceed as follows: Select Lock, and press OK. Then enter a desired number through the
numeric pad, and press ESC to exit and save the setting.
The unit of quantity for this duration is 40 ms, and you can set it to 254 at most. (some devices can set “S (second)”
for the unit of lock driver duration).
If set the duration to“0”, means Lock driver duration is closed. Normally, we do not suggest set it is“0”.

12 FAQs
Question: How do I address the problem that some employees fail to pass the fingerprint verification more
often than not?
Answer: The following factors will make fingerprint verification hard or even impossible for some employees:
. The fingerprints of some fingers wear out.
. The fingers have too many wrinkles which change frequently.
 The skin on the fingers peels off badly.
For users whose fingerprints are beyond recognition, they can delete these fingerprints and enroll them again or
enroll a fingerprint of another finger.
It is recommended to select fingers with good fingerprint quality (few wrinkles, no peeling-off and distinct
fingerprint) for fingerprint enrollment. Press the finger flatly on the fingerprint sensor and be sure that the pad (not
the tip) covers as much of the sensor window as possible. Perform fingerprint match test after finishing enrollment.
It is recommended to enroll the fingerprints of several fingers as backup.
Furthermore, the FRT provides the 1:1 matching and password verification functions especially for users who have
difficulty in or cannot pass fingerprint verification.
Question: What are the possible causes of FRT communication failure?
Answer: The possible causes are listed as follows:
 The setting of communication port is incorrect. The port set for communication is not the COM port actually used.
 The setting of the communication port baud rate of the PC is not consistent with that of the FRT.
 The FRT is not connected with the power supply or the PC.
 The FRT is connected with the PC but not powered on.
 The No. of the connected terminal is incorrect.
 The data cable or converter is faulty.
 The COM port of the PC is faulty.
Question: What are the possible causes of incomplete display (sometimes half-screen display) or blurred
screen after the FRT is powered on? How to fix it?
Answer: The possible causes are listed as follows:
 The main board is faulty.

inconsistent.
 If the beep sound occurs in RS-485 communication mode, it is possible that the two communication cables of the
converter are inversely connected or stuck together.
Question: Why does the FRT constantly display “Please press (remove) your finger again”? How to fix it?
Answer: The possible causes are as follows:
 There is dirt, grease or scratch on the surface of the fingerprint sensor, which may lead the fingerprint sensor to
mistakenly think there is a finger pressing on the surface. Remove the dirt or grease on the surface of the fingerprint
sensor with an adhesive tape.

 The connection cable of fingerprint sensor comes loose or disconnected.
 The chip of the main board is faulty.
For the last two cases, contact the supplier and return the FRT for maintenance.
Question: Why does a failure or error occurs when I read the attendance data while I can download
fingerprint and password data properly? How to fix it?
Answer: This problem may relate to the data cable, converter or the COM port setting of the PC. You may try
decreasing the baud rate of the PC and FRT, for example, set it to 19200 or 9600 before reading the attendance data
again.

13 Appendix
The functions described in Appendix are all optional. If you need FRTs that support these functions, please consult
our commercial representatives or pre-sales technical support engineers.
13.1 USB
USB Host
The FRT is used as the USB Host to externally connect with a USB pen drive for data exchange.
The conventional fingerprint readers transfer data only through the RS232, RS485 or Ethernet. Bulk data transfer
may take a long time due to the restriction of physical conditions. The USB far outperforms any other previous
transfer modes in terms of data transfer rate. Insert the USB pen drive to the USB slot on the FRT, download data to
the USB pen drive, and then connect the USB pen drive to a computer to import the data to the computer. Further,
the FRT also supports the exchange of user information and fingerprint data between two devices, which helps
dispense with the hassle of conventional cable connection for data transfer between the FRT and computers.
For the operations of the FRT used as the USB host, see 7. USB pen drive Management.
USB Client
Connect the FRT with the PC as the mobile storage device, and transfer the data stored in the FRT to the PC through
the USB connection cable.
When the FRT is used as the USB Client, the USB communication options will be displayed in the FRT
communication setting menu. For details, see 5.3 Communication Settings.
Note: When the FRT connects with the PC as the USB Client, the PC must be installed with related driver.
13.2 Status Key

Different events relate to different statuses. For example, the attendance involves such statuses as sign-in, sign-off,
sign-in for overtime work, sign-off for overtime work, leave and return. The access control system involves such
statuses as entry and exit.
Some FRTs have 6 status keys on their keyboards to set current status, while others have the ▲/▼ key to select
current status. But these statuses must be manually set, that is, to use a status, press related status key. To reduce
manual options, our company has developed the timed status switchover function that enables the FRT to
automatically switch over current status at user-specified time and display the status on the initial interface.
For details, see 5.2.2 Timed Status Switchover.
13.3 Scheduled Bell

Lots of companies need to ring their bells to signal the start and end of work shifts, and they usually manually ring
their bells or use electric bells. To save costs and facilitate management, our company integrates the scheduled bell
function into the FRT. The options Bell Delay and Bell Time Segment are available on the FRTs that support the
scheduled bell function. There are 8 time segments available every day of a week. You can set the ring time as
required. The FRT will automatically ring at the specified time every week and stop the ring after the ring duration
times out.
The FRT rings the bell in the following two ways:
Ring the bell through the speaker configured on the FRT.
Connect an electric bell to the FRT. The FRT will send a relay signal to trigger the electric bell at the specified
time.

13.4 External Connection with the Fingerprint Reader
This function is especially for devices configured with USB interfaces. Insert the fingerprint reader into the USB slot,
select the fingerprint reader Menu → Options → Adv Option → Connect with FP Reader and set the option
Connect with FP Reader to Y. After that, the externally connected fingerprint reader and the built-in fingerprint
reader of the FRT can be used concurrently.
When used for time & attendance management, the externally connected fingerprint reader can help siphon off
some of the users at peak time; when used for access control, the externally connected fingerprint reader can be
placed outside of the door and the host is placed inside, which not only implements the fingerprint access control
both inside and outside of the door, but also ensures the host security.
Note:
1) After connected, the fingerprint reader can only be used after restart.
2) Only the fingerprint readers with the SDK license can be used for external connection.
13.5 Modem
[Overview]
To enable remote communication between a PC and the FRT in areas where Internet access is unavailable, some
FRTs support the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) connection. The PPP connection is a type of end-to-end connection
over telephone cables. The PC implements dial-up network access through a Modem. The FRT must also connect
with a Modem which is then connected with the PSTN over a telephone cable. The FRT accesses the network upon
successful dial-up.

6） On the next screen you will be prompted to enter a name for the dial-up connection. You can name this
connection anything you wish (e.g. 1019). After you have entered your connection name click the Next button.
7） On the next screen you will be prompted for the phone number for the ISP. Enter the number of the telephone
cable connected with Modem. When entering the local access number, pay attention to the following cases:
i. Extension-to-extension dialup within a company: Enter the number of extension connected with Modem.
"1019” in the figure above is an extension number.
ii. Dialing extension from an external line: First you need to enter the exchange number and then the extension
number. The exchange and extension numbers are separated with comma(s). Each comma indicates a pause of 3
seconds. Add several commas in between if necessary. Note that you need to prefix an area code to the exchange
number if you dial the extension from another city.
iii. Direct dialup: Enter the telephone number to be dialed and prefix an area code to the telephone number if you
dial the direct line from another city.
iv. Direct outward dialup: Enter 0 or 9 and then the number to be dialed. The number 0 or 9 and the number to be
dialed are separated with a comma, for example, “9,02150814442”.
8） After entering the phone number, click the Next button.
9） After finishing the connection setup, double-click the new connection and the interface as shown in the
following figure is displayed:

2. Use the delivery-attached C1 control box (12V) to power the Modem.
3. Before connecting Modem with the FRT, set the option Extern MODEM (MENU → Options → Comm Opt →
Extern MODEM) on the FRT to Y.
4. When Modem is used, the RS232 and RS485 functions of the FRT will be disabled; when the option Extern
MODEM is set to N (that is, Modem is not used), the RS232 and RS485 functions are enabled.
5. The PPP Server is integrated into the FRT. Please adopt Windows-based PPP client dialup program to connect
A11. The default user name and password are both “ppp”. After the PPP connection is set up, the IP address of A11 is
192.168.1.100 and that of PC is 192.168.1.133 by default.
13.6 GPRS Functions

The General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) is a new packet data bearer service developed based on the Global System
for Mobile Communications (GSM). As a packet switched system, the GPRS is especially suitable for intermittent and
sporadic or frequent and small packet data transmission and also suitable for occasional bulky data transmission.
This feature is ideal for a majority of mobile applications, for example, the mobile office and Internet access. The
GPRS demonstrates outstanding capabilities in terms of transmission rate, radio resource management and billing.
Our FRT is also GPRS-capable. It supports either built-in or external GPRS module to implement data transmission
over the GPRS.
For detailed GPRS operations, see related operation instructions.
13.7 WIFI Functions

Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) is also known as the 802.11b standard. The greatest advantage of Wi-Fi is its high
transmission rate up to 11Mbps. Wi-Fi also features long transmission distance and excellent compatibility with
various existing 802.11 DSSS devices. IEEE 802.11b is a radio-based variant of IEEE 802.11. The bandwidth of IEEE
802.11b can be up to 11 Mbps and automatically adjusted to 5.5Mbps, 2Mbps and 1Mbps depending the signal
strength and interference level, thus effectively ensuring network stability and reliability. Major advantages: High
transfer speed and reliability. The communication distance can be up to 305 m in an open area and 76 m to 122 m in
an enclosed area. Wi-Fi can be conveniently integrated with the existing wireline Ethernet, making the networking
cost even lower.
Our FRT is also WIFI-capable. It supports either built-in or external WIFI module to implement wireless data
transmission over the WIFI.
For detailed WIFI operations, see related operation instructions.

13.8 Attendance Query
You can query the attendance data of an individual or all employees directly on the FRT that supports the
attendance query feature. This helps remove the hassle of installing software and connecting device for attendance
downloading and query, and facilitates employees to query their own attendance data.
You can query the attendance data of not only an individual but also all employees on the FRT.
For details, see Chapter 10 Query Attendance Record.
13.9 Print
[Function Description]
The FRT supports only the serial port print function. The printed contents are output in RS232 mode and each time
after a user passes the verification, the verification result is output through the serial port. If the FRT is connected

13.10 MP3 Function Description

The MP3 function enables the play of hi-fi MP3 music by real-time decoding MP3 files with an MP3 player. The
MP3-capable FRTs have a built-in MP3 player to play MP3 voice files of MPEG1.0 Layer III format. Similar to the
scheduled bell, the MP3 function allows users to set 8 time segments and automatically plays MP3 files at
user-specified time segments.
You can also set an MP3 file to signal the start of work and noon break, or place an announcement into an MP3 file
for the FRT to play at the specified time, thus making your office more employee-friendly.
The FRT can either play MP3 files through its own speakers or through an external sound box.
MP3 play setting

Under the menu item Menu → Options → Power Mng → Scheduled Bell, there are 8 time segments available for
you to select. You can set the time segment as required. The FRT automatically plays an MP3 file at the specified time
segment.
Note:
1. All the 8 time segments adopt the 24-hour time system.
2. The time segment 1 relates to file 1.mp3, the time segment 2 relates to file 2.mp3 and so on and so forth.
3. You cannot perform other operations while the FRT is playing an MP3 file.
4. While the FRT is playing an MP3 file, you can press any menu key to stop the play.
MP3 file access
The FRT itself cannot store MP3 files, but it can access MP3 files in the following two ways:
 Access MP3 files through webserver.
Step 1: Select Menu → Options → Power Mng → WEB Server IP on the FRT and enter the IP address of the PC
where the web server is installed.
Step 2: Copy MP3 files to the web server.
If you have already installed web server (IIS, or Apache) on the PC, you can create a folder with the name of “MP3”
under the root directory of the virtual host of the web server. Then copy MP3 files to this folder. Type
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/mp3/y.mp3 in the IE address bar to check whether you can access the MP3 file normally.
If you have not installed WEB server in your PC, you can install the web server software provided the software in the
following way: Decompress the “web server .rar” file to a certain directory (take d:\ as an example). Double-click
webs.exe under the directory d:\webserver\main to run the Web server and ensure the Web server runs in the
entire process. Copy the MP3 to be played to d:\webserver\web\mp3. Type http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/mp3/y.mp3 in the
IE address bar to check whether you can access the MP3 file normally.
Note: “xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx” refers to the IP address of the PC where the Web server is installed and “y” in “y.mp3” refers to
the number of an MP3 file.
Step 3: The FRT reads and plays the mp3 file through web server at user-specified time segment.
 Access MP3 file through a USB pen drive.
Copy MP3 files to a USB pen drive. The FRT automatically searches the set MP3 file in the USB pen drive to play at the
user-specified time segment.
Note: The FRT searches and plays MP3 files in the following sequence:
Search MP3 files on the Web server.
Search MP3 files in the USB pen drive if no MP3 file is specified on the Web server or the Web server cannot
be accessed.
Play its own ring-tone if the USB pen drive is not inserted or the specified MP3 file is not found in the USB
pen drive.
MP3 play modes
The FRT can either play MP3 files through its own speakers or through an external sound box.
 Volume control
The FRT supports the volume control function. If the volume of the MP3 player is too high or low, you can adjust the
volume by selecting Menu → Options → System Opt → Adv Option → Volume Control on the FRT.
 MP3 file format
The FRT supports MP3 files of MPEG1.0 Layer III format. (The MPEG1.0 Layer III format is the common format for MP3
files. If an MP3 file cannot be played by the FRT because it is compressed by a standard (e.g. MPEG I Layer 1 or Layer
2) that the FRT does not support, replace it with another MP3 file.)
 MP3 file detection
To check whether an MP3 can be played, select Menu → Options → Auto Test → MP3 Test on the FRT.

13.11 Short Message
FRTs of some models support the transfer of public and private short messages at the specified time and for a
specified individual. You can edit public or short messages through the background software and then upload them
to the FRT. The public short messages are displayed on the screen all the time once the FRT is started, while private
short messages are displayed upon the fingerprint verification. This function helps reduce the workload for the HR
department and greatly enhance working efficiency.
A short message for an individual: For example, if an employee's birthday is October 20th, then you can edit a short
message “Happy birthday to you!” through the background software, upload the short message to the FRT, and set it
to be displayed on October 20th. This message will be displayed on the screen once this employee verifies his/her
fingerprint.
A short message for a group of employees: for example, for a plenary meeting scheduled to be held on June 19th,
you can edit a short message “Please attend the plenary meeting at ×× in the ×× meeting room” (you can edit it as
required) through the background software and upload it to the FRT. Then on June 19th, this short message will be
displayed all the time on the screen once the FRT is started.
Setting of short messages: After setting the short message in the attendance software, upload it to the FRT. The FRT
supports the import of short messages in two modes:
 Direct import by connecting the software to the FRT.
 Import from a USB pen drive.
Operation Description:
1. Edit a short message by selecting the External Program→ SMS Mng menu item of the attendance software,
connect the attendance software to the FRT and upload it to the FRT.
2. Edit a short message by selecting the External Program→ SMS Mng menu item of the attendance software.
Select External Program→ PenDrive Mng→ Export → Export to PenDrive to export the edited short message to
the USB pen drive. Insert the USB pen drive into the slot on the FRT upon successful export, and select Menu →
PenDrive Mng → Upload SMS to upload the short message from the USB pen drive.
Display of short messages: Public short messages are displayed all the time on the screen once the FRT is started.
Private short messages are displayed upon fingerprint verification.
Note: You can upload a maximum of 1024 public or private short messages to the FRT.
13.12 Multiple Verification Modes

Currently the FRT falls short of the requirements for high-security access control by providing the fingerprint only,
password only and ID + fingerprint verification modes. To provide feature-rich access control systems, we support
customization of multiple verification modes for individuals or groups to meet the most stringent security
requirements of customers. Apart from the fingerprint only, password only and ID + fingerprint verification modes,
the FRT also supports a combination of the ID (PIN), fingerprint (FP), password (PW) and RF verification to achieve
up to 15 verification modes as listed in the following tables.
Note: 1) Mifare can be deemed as RF in the verification process and Mifare card verification is only available for
Mifare-card-capable FRTs.
2) Except for some FRTs of specific models, the B&W screen series FRTs support only the fingerprint and password
verification modes. The Mifare-card-capable FRTs also support the Mifare card verification apart from the fingerprint
and password verification modes.
3) The FRT supports up to 15 verification modes to meet the requirements of different customers. “/” means “or”, “&”
means “and” and “←” means confirmation (OK).

2) It is recommended to enroll both fingerprints and passwords for the combined verification mode; otherwise, it
may lead to verification failure.
For example, user A only enrolls his/her fingerprint, but the verification mode is PW, so user A will fail the
verification.

13.14 Master-slave function 

Two devices, a master and a slave, both controlling the same lock, are connected by RS232/RS485/Wiegand.
1. The Applications of the Master and the Slave
1) Record storage:
By default, the master status is exit and the slave status is entry. The records of entry and exit are both saved on the
master.
2) Anti-Passback function:
Whether to perform the anti-passback function is determined by the latest record of the user's entry and exit. With
this function, the exit record must match the entry record. The function supports "Out", "In", "In Out", "None and save
" or "None". anti-passback. By default, the identification status of the master is exit and that of the slave is entry, so if
" out anti-passback " has been set and when the last record of the user's entry is not "entry", the system will prompt
anti-passback refusal" and refuse to open the door if the user wants to exit. The logic is the same with "out
anti-passback" and " in out anti-passback".
For example, now A wants to exit.
① If the last record for A is not entry, the device will prompt anti-passback refusal and refuse to open the door.
② If the last record for A is entry, after the fingerprint identification is passed, the device will open the door.
3) Alarm function
If the slave is equipped with alarm function (e.g. F10), when an alarm incident occurs, the slave will forward it for the
master to process. There is no such function on device that is not equipped with alarm function.
2. The Connection of the Master and the Slave
Currently, three modes－RS232, Wiegand and RS485 are applicable for the connection of the master and the slave.
Of the three, RS232 is less often used due to its deficiency that its connection distance is short. For example, it can
be used when the master and the slave are just installed respectively inside and outside a door. Its connection
principle is similar to that of RS485, which is omitted here. The Wiegand connection is widely used, most of whose
devices on the market are applicable to the master and the slave. RS485, whose transmission distance is great

(however it is recommended that the distance should not be over 600 meters), applies to most occasions, but the
slave must be equipped with the inBIO reader (which is used for collecting fingerprint or swiping card).
If Wiegand connection is to be used, the connection and setting for anti-passback are as follows:
1) Select model:
Master machine: Machine with Wiegand in function, except for F10 Reader.
Slave machine: Machine with Wiegand Out function.
2）Master-slave menu setting:
This machine supports out, in, out-in, No, No and saved anti-pass back (enter Menu -> setting -> system setting ->
advanced setting -> anti-passback).
3) Modify device’s Wiegand output format:
If the two devices are communicating, only Wiegand signals without device ID can be received. Enter device Menu
-> Comm. Opt -> Wiegand option or enter software: Basic setting -> device management -> Wiegand, to modify
“defined format” as “wiegand26 without device ID”.
4) Enroll user:
The user must be on master machine and slave machine at the same time, and user PIN must be the same. Therefore,
it is necessary to enroll user on master machine and slave machine at the same time.
5) Connection instruction:
Wiegand communication is adopted for master machine and slave machine. Refer to the following for connection:
Master Slave
IND0 <-----> WD0
IND1 <-----> WD1
GND <-----> GND
If RS485 connection is to be used, the connection and setting for anti-passback are as follows:
The mode of RS485 is a new application in the connection of the master and the slave. In this mode, user
information, fingerprint verification, card verification and authority verification are all processed on the master and
the slave is only used as a collector. Therefore, the software only needs to manage user information and record
information on the master.
1) Choosing devices:
The master: It must have the 485 communication function (upgrade firmware required).
The slave: It must use the inBIO readers (reader only responsible for collecting fingerprint, such as F11 and SR200).
2) Setting the menu on the master:
Setting the master:
①Access Menu>Settings>System Settings>Advanced Settings>Anti- passback. The setting can be "Out", "In", "In
Out", "None and save " or "None".
②Access Menu>Settings> Access Options>485 reader. If "Yes" is chosen, the master and slave function of 485 mode
is started and at the same time the communication function with PC is forbidden. If "No" is chosen, the machine
runs normally the communication function of PC.
Setting the slave:
Set the device number, identical to the master.
3) Connecting the master and the slave
The master and the slave are for RS485 communication, whose connection is shown as in the figure:
Master Slave
485+ <-----> 485+
485- <-----> 485-
GND <-----> GND

3. The Use of the Master and the Slave
After the devices are started, the master works the same as common access control. The slave cannot verify. When a
fingerprint is pressed or a card is swiped on the slave, the indicator will blink and "click, click" will sound to prompt
and the verification result will be displayed on the master.
13.15 Remote Identification Server (RIS)

Due to the capacity and speed constraints, it is unlikely to store a hefty amount of fingerprints (for example,
thousands of fingerprints) offline on the FRT. Even if the FRT is highly scalable, the offline running speed of the FRT is
way too slow as opposed to the PC. Therefore, the offline RFT falls short of the requirements raised by some large
verification system for large fingerprint storage capacity and high match efficiency. To accommodate to these
requirements, our company delivers the Remote Identification Server (RIS) solution.
Operating Principle of the RIS
The RIS solution uses the FRT as the fingerprint reader while retaining its offline verification function. By using the
network function of the FRT, it sends the data such as the fingerprint verification templates and fingerprint images
to the background for verification, stores verification results in background database and displays them on the LCD
screen of the FRT.
The RIS solution is especially suited to large database match of factories with a headcount of 1000 to 3000
employees, making time & attendance tracking highly efficient. Furthermore, to address the issue of cross-factory
staff mobility, we also propose the zone and quasi-DNS solutions. By logically dividing server locations and
dynamically identifying staff mobility, the FRT realizes free staff mobility and dispenses with manual configurations.
The quasi-DNS solution developed based on the DNS ensures stable system running and even and efficient resource
allocations even in the case of traffic burst.
RIS Architecture
The basic mode of the RIS is client/server (c/s) mode, as shown in the following figure. The FRT only serves as the
fingerprint reader and sends fingerprints to the RIS. The RIS verifies the fingerprint templates from the FRT by taking
advantage of the powerful processing capability of PC, stores the verification results in the center database and
returns them to the FRT for display at the same time. At present the verification speed of the FRT is less than 2s when
the total number of fingerprints is 5,000.
RIS Operation Description

Menu setting
Select Menu → Options → System Opt → Adv Option on the RIS-capable FRT and you can see the following two
options:
 Remote Verify: This option includes four values: “NO”, “NL”, “LO” and “LN”.
 Server IP: This option is used to set the IP address of the RIS.
After the FRT is successfully connected with the RIS, select Menu → User Manage → Enroll User and the following
option is displayed:
Remote FP Enroll: The remote fingerprint enrollment is available after this option is set to Y.

RIS software
The RIS software includes three parts: Fingerprint enrollment, verification server personnel configuration and
fingerprint verification server.
For details of the RIS, see RIS Specifications.

13.17 Web Server Access Control

Overview of Web Server Access Control Software
The Web server access control system is remote data collection/access control system based on the Web Server
technology and underpinned by the standard TCP/IP network structure. It adopts the common Web page requests
to handle and manage data. It is free from geographical restrictions and does not require the installation of other
software. You can download the employee data stored in the remote fingerprint terminal through various types of
browsers such as IE and Netscape, and prepare statistical reports for enterprise management and decision-making.
With the Web Server access control software, customers can really have real-time synchronization at hand anywhere
at any time.
Role of Built-in Web Server

See iClock Attendance.
Use of Webserver Access Control Software
When using the webserver access control software, you need to set the IP address of the FRT, for example,
192.168.1.115. Then type http://192.168.1.115 in the IE address bar. The default username of the super administrator
is “admin” and password is “admin888”.
For details of the webserver access control software, see Webserver Access Control Software Specifications.
13.18 Automatic IP Address Collection

It is possible that the administrator may forget the IP addresses of the FRTs when multiple FRTs are managed on the
same LAN. To remove the hassle of querying the IP addresses of FRTs one by one, we develops a type of software
that automatically collects the IP addresses of FRTs on the LAN.
All you need is to copy all dll files to the system directory System32, and select Start → Run to run regsvr32
zkemkeeper.dll. After the system prompts registration success, double-click DeviceSearch.exe to run the software.
13.19 Wiegand Protocol

Wiegand26 is an access control standard protocol established by the Access Control Standard Subcommittee
affiliated to the Security Industry Association (SIA). It is a non-contact IC card reader interface and output protocol.
Wiegand26 defines the interface between the card reader and controller used in the access control, security and
other related industrial fields. Wiegand26 helps standardize the work of the card reader designers and controller
manufacturers. The FRT is also designed in compliance with Wiegand26.
Digital Signals
Figure 1 is a sequence diagram in which the card reader sends digital signals in bit format to the access controller. In
this sequence diagram, Wiegand follows the SIA’s access control standard protocol for the 26-bit Wiegand card
reader (one pulse time ranges between 20us and 100us, and the pulse jump time ranges between 200us and 20ms).
Data1 and Data0 are high level (larger than Voh) signals till the card reader prepares to send a data stream. The
asynchronous low-level pulse (smaller than Vol) generated by the card reader is sent to the access control panel
(The saw-tooth wave as shown in Figure 1) through Data1 or Data0. Data1 and Data0 pulses will neither overlap nor
be generated synchronously. Table 1 lists the maximum and minimum pulse widths (a consecutive pulse) and pulse
jump time (time between pulses) allowed by the F series fingerprint access control terminal.
Table 1 Pulse Time
Symbol Definition Typical Value of Reader

Tpw Pulse Width 100 μs
Tpi Pulse Interval 1 ms
Figure 1 Sequence Diagram

Wiegand Format
The Wiegand format adopted by the FRT is the universal access control protocol.
26-Bit Wiegand Format
The composition of the open de facto 26 Bit Weigand industry standard contains 8 bits for the facility code and 16
bits for the ID number field. Mathematically, these 8 facility codes allows for a total of just 256 (0 to 255) facility

codes, while the 16 ID number bits allow for a total of only 65,536 (0 to 65,536) individual ID's within each facility
code.
26-Bit Wiegand format is of 26 bits in length, including 2 bits for parity bits.
1 2 9 10 25 26
EP FC CC OP
Table 2 Definition of Fields
Field Purpose
Even Parity bit (EP) is judged based on field 1 to 13 bit. EP is 1 if the number of
EP
“1” is even; otherwise, EP is 0.
Facility Code (0-255)
FC(bit2-bit 9)
Bit 2 is the Most Significant Bit (MSB).
CC (bit10-bit 25) Card Code (0-65 535). Bit10 is the MSB.
The value of Odd Parity bit is determined by 14–26 bit. OP is 1 if the number of
OP
“1” is even; otherwise, OP is 0.
Pyramid Wiegand format

Several alternatives exist for customers who require more codes. The first is to switch to Keri’s standard 39 bit
Pyramid format. This 39 bit Wiegand format contains 17 bits for the facility code field and 20 bits for the ID number
field. Mathematically these 17 facility code bits allow for a total of 131,072 (0 to 131,071) facility codes, while the 20
ID number bits allow for a total of 1,048,576 (0 to 1,048,575) individual ID’s within each facility code. Since there are
so many facility codes in the Pyramid format, a new facility code may be selected for each project. Additionally the
large number of ID’s per facility code makes the Pyramid format ideal for very large projects. For added security, Keri
Systems tracks credential coding to ensure that no duplication occurs. Table 3 provides a summary of the Pyramid
Wiegand format.
Table 3 Pyramid Wiegand Format
Bit Number Meaning

Bit 1 Even parity over bits 2 to 9
Bits 2 to 18 Facility code (0 to 131,071); Bit 2 is MSB
Bits 19 to 38 ID Number (0 to 1,048,575); Bit 19 is MSB
Bit 39 Odd parity over bits 20 to 38
Custom Wiegand Formats
The second alternative is to create a custom Wiegand format. Typically, up to 64 bits are available for creating a
custom Wiegand format. With certain limitations, formats with greater than 64 bits may be created. If a customer
currently has a custom Wiegand format from Wiegand or from other proximity manufacturers, Keri can normally
match that format. Although the customer is primarily responsible for custom format card coding, as an added
benefit Keri Systems tracks card coding for additional security. Table 4 provides an example of one possible custom
Wiegand format.
Table 4 Example of a Custom Wiegand Format
Bit Number Purpose

Bits 2 to 9 OEM code (0 to 255); Bit 2 is MSB
Bits 10 to 21 Facility code (0 to 4,096); Bit 10 is MSB
Bits 22 to 43 ID Number (0 to 524,287); Bit 22 is MSB

13.20 Soap Interface
Definition of SOAP
SOAP is a lightweight protocol for exchange of information in a decentralized, distributed environment. SOAP
defines a type of scalable message handling framework by using the XML technology and provides a structure for
exchange of information through multiple underlying protocols. The framework has been designed to be
independent of any particular programming model and other implementation specific semantics.
Application of SOAP Interface
The FRT supports the XML-based SOAP data interface. By embedding the SOAP requests in the program, you can
upload and download the user information, fingerprint data and verification records to and from the FRT.
Furthermore, you can conveniently import the user information, fingerprint data and verification records to the
enterprise database or software to meet different software requirements as well as the special needs for personnel
management.
iClock-based SOAP Specifications
Convention:
All parameters are transferred in form of <Arg/>. The “<Arg PIN=”2”/><Arg>” in the parameter value is
equivalent to “<PIN>2</PIN></Arg>”.
All return values are returned in the form of <Return/>. The return values are returned in the form of
attribute values, for example, <Return PIN=”2”></Return>.
All SOAP requests are submitted by adopting the POST method.
If a fault occurs, the standard SOAP fault code will be returned.
<SOAP-ENV:Fault>
<faultcode>500</faultcode>
<faultstring>Internal Error</faultstring>
</SOAP-ENV:Fault>
Other faults comply with the HTTP fault status codes.
If the SOAP-XML format submit does not comply with WELL FORMAT or the accessed method name does not exist,
the system will return “500 Common service error”. For example, for the error of access service name, error 404 will
be returned in the HTTP header.
Service name: iWsService
This service name specifies the SOAP service to be provided by the Web Server.
HTTP header:
Follow the standard SOAP-HTTP header rules
POST /iWsService HTTP/1.0 ‘SOAP service is required
Content-Type: text/xml ‘The SOAP resolution format must be specified to be XML.
Content-Length: nnnnn ‘The XML size of the SOAP request must be specified.
SOAPAction:”uri:someuri” ‘Extended HTTP. It means the URI behind the action domain of the SOAP can be null.
For example, the acceptable formats include:
SOAPAction:
SOAPAction:””
SOAPAction:”uri:someuri”
The URI can be any valid domain name.
The server returns the following after responding to the SOAP request:
HTTP/1.0 200 OK ‘200 means success

Server: WEBSERVER

Content-Type: text/xml

13.21 POE Function

1. Overview
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a technology that enables DC power along with data to be provided to the
Ethernet-based terminal equipment (such as an IP phone or a wireless LAN access point) without any changes in
current Ethernet cabling architecture. A PoE system essentially consists of two major components; the Power
Sourcing Equipment (PSE), which delivers power, and Powered Devices (PDs), which receive and use the power. PoE
integrates power and data in the same cabling system, and delivers data and DC power through a Cat5/5E cable.
2. Application
If you connect an FRT with a built-in PoE module to the PoE system, the FRT can work properly by using the power
provided by the PoE system without any dedicated power adaptor. Thus it not only saves cost but also facilitates
cabling and installation. Table 1 lists the definitions of RJ45 wires on the FRT after the access of the PoE module.
Table 1 Pin Definition of RJ45
Pin (socket notch to top; from right to left) Definition

1 TX+
2 TX-
3 RX+
4 Power
5 Power
6 RX-
7 GND
8 GND
3. Advantages
Cost-effective
A PoE system only needs to support one cable. In many cases, the PoE system needs to be installed in the
places where AC power is hard to deploy. The PoE system enables an increasing number of devices over
Ethernet to dispense with local power and thus greatly reduces deployment costs and simplifies device
management.
Easy-to-install and easy-to-manage
The PoE can co-exist with the legacy devices and Ethernet cables on network.
Safe
The PSE only supplies power to the devices that need power supply. The Ethernet cable has a voltage only
when the PSE connects with the PD, which eliminates the creepage risk.
Ease of management of network devices
When a remote device connects with a network, the PoE can implement remote control, re-allocation or
re-set of this remote device.
13.22 Backup Battery (Mini-UPS)

A prerequisite for FRT’s proper work is the normal power supply in any cases. Apart from power adaptors, we also
provides 5V and 12V Mini-UPSs which can reduce the impact of power failure as a result of power supply problems
on the FRT operation to the greatest extent.

1. Operating principle
Usually the backup battery remains in idle state, and the power adaptor converts AC to DC power supply for the FRT.
If the backup battery is in non-saturated state, it will charge automatically. In the event of power failure, the backup
battery will automatically switch into the discharge state to supply power to the FRT.
2. Model
1) 5V Mini-UPS
Input: DC5V–2A
Output: DC5V–0.8A
Charge time: ≥7.5 H
Discharge time: 3.0±0.5 H
Indicator: The red indicator is on during charge. The green indicator is on when the battery is saturated.
2) 12V Mini-UPS
Input: DC12V/2A
Output: DC7–12V/0.8A
Charge time: ≥5.0 H
Discharge time: 3.0±0.5 H
Indicator: The red indicator is on during charge. The green indicator is on when the battery is saturated.
3. Connection mode
Tip: Please first connect the Mini-UPS to the FRP and then charge the Mini-UPS.
4. Storage
During long term storage (over 3 months), keep batteries with 50% of rated capacity (perform charging once every
3 months) and put them in a cool and dry place with an ambient temperature from -10°C–30°C, far away from
erosive substances, fire and heating sources.
5. Precautions for use of batteries
Failure to read the following precautions carefully may lead to battery leakage, overheat, sparking, explosion or
rupture.
 Do not connect anode and cathode of the battery directly.
 Do not use batteries in places with ambient temperature over 45°C.
 Do not expose batteries to water or get wet.
 Do not use or store batteries near heating sources (for example, fire or heater).
 Use the original factory charger.
 Do not reverse the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals.
 Do not connect the battery directly to any wall-mounted socket or vehicle-mounted cigarette lighter socket.
 Do not put the battery into fire or apply heat to them. Do not connect anode and cathode of the battery using
a conductor or other metal objects to avoid a short circuit. Do not transport or store batteries together with
necklaces, hair pins or other metal objects.
 Do not disassemble the battery or form a short circuit.
 Do not strike the battery with any sharp edge parts.
13.23 9-digit Enrollment Number

The standard user IDs supported by the FRT for user enrollment are 5 digits long (ranging between 1 and 65534). In
practice, customers may require user IDs with digits more than 5 digits. We can customize devices supporting 9-digit
user IDs to meet your needs.

13.24 Automatic Time Calibration
Considering the huge workload for one-by-one time calibration of multiple FRTs in a network, you can specify a
device or PC in this network as a time server, and set the Automatic Time Calibration option of the
to-be-calibrated devices to the IP address of the specified time server. Then other devices will automatically connect
with this server for time calibration. You only need to ensure that all the devices can access the time server.
For example, several FRTs in a network support the automatic time calibration function. Set FRT A to the time server.
The display time of FRT A is 11:00 on October 28th 2006, and its IP address is assumed “192.168.1.100”. You need to set
the time of devices in the quantity of M in this network to be synchronous with the FRT A. Access these devices and
select Menu → Options → System Opt → Adv Option. In the displayed [Adv Option] interface, check the
Automatic Time Calibration option and set it to the IP address of the time server. After completing these settings,
restart the devices. These devices will automatically search the time server after a period of time to keep
synchronous with the time of the time server.
13.25 Daylight Saving Time (Time Zone Settings)

The Daylight Saving Time (DLST) is a widely used system of adjusting the official local time forward to save energy.
The uniform time adopted during the implementation of this system is known as the DLST. Typically clocks are
adjusted forward one hour in the summer to make people early to bed and early to rise so as to make full use of
illumination resources and save electricity. Clocks are adjusted backward in autumn. The specific DLST regulations
vary with countries. At present, the DLST system is adopted every year by about 110 countries in the world.
To meet the DLST requirement, the FRT supports the DLST function to adjust forward one hour at ×× (Hour): ××
(Minute) ×× (Day) ×× (Month) and backward one hour at ×× (Hour): ×× (Minute) ×× (Day) ×× (Month).
For the operations of the FRT menu settings, see 5.1.6 Daylight Saving Time.
13.26 Play Voice Within Specified Time Segment (By Time Segment or
Group)
When the user operates the FRT, the FRT often plays voice prompts. For example, the FRT voices “Thank you!” after
the user passes the fingerprint verification, and voices “Place try again!” if the user fails to pass the verification.
To make the FRTs more user-friendly, we enables the FRTs to play the specified voice prompts in response to
different user operations.
For instance, if the employee signs in during 6:00–8:00 a.m., the FRT will voice “Thank you!” but if the employee signs
in during 8:00–10:00 a.m., the prompt will become “You are late. Thank you!”
The voice prompts can be set in two ways:
By time segment: The FRT plays different voice prompts in response to the same operation performed within
different time segments.
By group (which is available only on the devices supporting advanced access control functions): The FRT plays
different voice prompts in response to the same operation performed by the users from different groups.
To set voice prompts for different time segments, proceed as follows:
You can set a total of 8 time segment voice prompts for a whole day. Select Menu → Options → System Opt → Adv
Option, and select the option TZ Voice. Set the play of voice 001 during 07:00–09:00 a.m. and voice 002 during
10:00–12:00 a.m. as shown below:
TZ Voice
001 07:00–09:00
002 10:00–12:00
003 00:00–00:00
004 00:00–00:00
005 00:00–00:00
006 00:00–00:00
007 00:00–00:00
008 00:00–00:00

After completing the settings, press OK. These settings will take effect after the FRT restart.
13.27 Work Code

[Function Description]
The concept of work code is introduced to facilitate the software to handle the verification records according to
different cases. For example, we define “1” for eating, “2” for seeing a doctor and “3” for smoking, and input
corresponding value when performing a specific action. In this way, the software can easily differentiate among
events 1, 2 and 3.
[Operation Description]
You can set the “Work Code” by selecting Menu → Options → System Opt → Adv Option. The “Work Code”
includes three options: Mode 1, Mode 2 and None.
Select “Mode 1”, that is, input the work code (one to nine digits) upon the fingerprint verification, and press OK to
save the records together with the input work code.
Note:
If you press OK without entering any work code upon successful verification, the work code is left to the
default value “0”.
If you enter the work code upon successful verification without pressing OK, the work code is left to the
default value “0”
If you perform no operation upon successful verification, the FRT will automatically save the record and
leave the work code to “0” five seconds later.
Select “Mode 2”, that is, press “▲” and then input the work code (one to nine digits). Press OK and then place your
finger on the sensor by following the prompt. The records will be saved together with the input work code upon
successful fingerprint verification.
Note:
If you forget to press “▲” and perform verification directly, you still can pass the verification, but the work
code in the record is “0”.
If you perform no operation of the FRT after pressing “▲”, the FRT will return to the initial interface 10
seconds later.
If you select “None”, this function is not enabled. And you will not be prompted to enter the work code by the
system in response to any of your operations.
Note: 1. The existing attendance software can save the field to the database when downloading the attendance
records, but it cannot handle the work code.
2. The existing offline communication development kit supports the work code for users to handle the work code in
the second development. Users can perform classified handling of the records based on the different work codes so
as to collect statistics of different events and verification modes.
13.28 DHCP
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) provides a framework for allocating dynamic IP addresses to hosts
on a TCP/IP network. DHCP consists of two components: server and client. The DHCP server performs centralized
management of all the IP network configuration data and handles with the DHCP requests from client. The client
uses the IP address allocated by server.
When our FRT uses the DHCP, it needs a DHCP server and our FRT works as a client.
On the FRT supporting DHCP, select Menu → Options → Comm Opt → Dyn Host Opt, and set the option Dyn
Host Opt to Y. After accessing the network, restart the FRT and the FRT will send a message to the DHCP server,
requesting a dynamic IP address, and a prompt “Acquiring IP address” will be displayed on the screen. The DHCP
server will provide a usable IP address and a subnet mask for the FRT based on the configured address. After the FRT
acquires an IP address, you can select Menu → Options → Comm Opt to query the acquired IP address, subnet
mask, and gateway.

If you set the option Dyn Host Opt to N, the DHCP function will not be activated. You need to manually input an IP
address, subnet mask, and gateway.
13.29 User Grouping

Divide users into different groups. The user needs to first input the number of the group that he/she belongs to and
then place his/her finger on the FRT for recognition. You can also set the unlock time for every group to facilitate the
access control management. The system defines 5 groups: Group 1, Group 2, Group 3, Group 4 and Group 5.
Setting of the “Match by Group” function
On the FRT supporting this function, select Menu → Options → System Opt → Adv Option and set the option
Allow Group on the “Adv Option” interface. If you select Y, the user needs to first input the number of the group
that he/she belongs to and then place his/her finger on the FRT for match. If you select N, the match by group is
deactivated during user verification.
You can set and modify the “Default Group” on the “Adv Option” interface by selecting Menu → Options →
System Opt → Adv Option.
User enrollment
If “Allow Group” is set to Y, the following dialog box will be displayed during the enrollment of a new user. The new
user needs to first set the group that he/she belongs to and then enroll the system.
New Enrol
Input Group ID
1
ESC OK
Note: Current group number is a default value. If you want to change this group number, you only need to input a
new number.
“Match by Group” mode
When “Allow Group” is set to Y, the system adopts the “match by group” mode for verification. Therefore, users are
divided into different groups and they need to first input the number of the group that they belong to and then
place their fingers on the FRT for verification. For details, see 3.4.1 Fingerprint Verification.
Note: The users in “Default Group” can directly place their fingers on the FRT for fingerprint match without inputting
their group numbers. The system deems current group as “Default Group” by default.
Group attributes
Select Menu → Options → Access Options → User Acc Opts, and on the displayed “User Acc Opts” interface, you
can view the group that a certain user belongs to and modify related settings, including the group setting, group
time segment, user time segment, and so on. For details, see 4.5.3.3 User Access Control Settings.
View group information
Select Menu → Sys Info → Group FP Info and on the displayed “Group FP Info” interface you can view the number
of fingerprints contained in every group.
Note:
The default fingerprint count is 600 for every group. If you need to modify this capacity, please consult our
commercial representatives or pre-sales technical support engineers.
13.30 T9 Input Method

Every of the number keys 2–9 is distributed with 3 or 4 English letters, for example, key 1 has three letters A, B, and C.
You only need to type the key for the desired letter once, all the corresponding upper-case and lower-case letters
come up. You can press ▲/▼ to choose the desired letter. The user can type his/her name, department name, and
work shift by T9 input method.
The keyboard layout of T9 input method is as follows:

For example: To input a user name “Robert”, proceed as follows:
13.31 TTS Function

By use of the TTS technology, the FRT converts normal language text into the speech that can be output as WAV files.
The FRT dynamically edits and plays the speech so that users can enjoy clear natural voice. Users can modify or
customize individualized voice prompts as desired by using PC software.
For detailed operations, see 5. Voice Settings.
Note: The FRT supporting 9-digit user IDs must upload user data first and then fingerprint data instead of uploading
user and fingerprint data concurrently during the high-speed upload of fingerprint data in RS485 mode.
13.32 Menu Items

The menu items marked with “” in this manual are only supported by a specific or tailor-made device and they
