Shut Down Ingress Properly If You Login Through A Client Server To Avoid Being Block Access

Thursday, October 30, 2014 TimeTec 0 Comments

As a server-client software, users can login to Ingress server via Ingress clients installed at any other computers. To secure the system, Ingress server always makes sure there is no duplicated login credentials from different computers running at the same time. Ingress will block access if it detected the login credential is still in-use from any client.

 
In case you do not sign out properly from a client, for example you clicked the X button on the right top of Ingress to shut down the software, Ingress server will block you from accessing the system by using the same credential next time you want to access the system. This is because, Ingress considers that you are still in the system because you did not sign out properly. To resolve this issue, please restart the Ingress server to clear its cache.

 
And next time you sign out, please make sure that you use the Shut Down button.

Verification Fail Alarm in FingerTec Access Control Devices

Thursday, October 30, 2014 TimeTec 0 Comments

FingerTec’s access control devices are equipped with a Verification Fail alarm feature. The Verification Fail alarm will trigger the device’s alarm (internal or external alarm) if a user failed to verify for a pre-determined number of times. This feature is made to warn the administrator that the device is being vandalized or if someone is trying to break in into a building. Assuming that you had set the Alarm threshold to allow a maximum of 3 tries, if a user fails to verify after 3 times, the alarm will be triggered.

To set up this feature, you can refer to the following steps. This may vary depending on the model of the device you are using.

 

Monochrome Terminals (Kadex, R2, AC900)

You can select the Alarm Count Option following the steps below.

Menu> Options> Access Options > Alarm CNT > Define the value

*To disable this feature, you can set the value to 0.


 


Color Screen Terminals (Q2i, Ikiosk 100+)

You can set this feature in 1:1 Match Retry Times, and Password Retry Times in Display option:

Menu> System> Display > 1:1 Match RetryTimes > Define the value (1-9)

Menu> System> Display > Password RetryTimes > Define the value (1-9)

*Please note that for colored screen devices, the Retry Times cannot be disabled. You can only set it to the maximum value, which is 9. This will give the users enough time to verify.
 

 

FaceID (FaceID 2,  FaceID 3, FaceID 4d)

You can configure this feature in Access Parameter Settings:

Menu> System> Access Control Settings > Access Control Parameters > Failure Alarm Thr > Define the value (1-9)

* Please note that for FaceID series, the alarm threshold cannot be disabled. You can only set it to the maximum value, which is 9. This will give the users enough time to verify.

Webserver Operation Manual is Now Available Online

Monday, October 13, 2014 TimeTec 0 Comments


FingerTec Webserver is a basic web version of our TCMS V2 software. We highly recommend that you install the webserver into a PC that can double as a server. The designated PC will need to have a fixed IP address in order to transform into a workstation that links together the FingerTec terminals via GPRS or the internet. No IP address is required on any of the terminals as the terminals will search for any GPRS or Internet signal available to establish the connection.
Installing Webserver is hassle-free as it contains only a single installation file. This installation file consists of all the necessary components required for the software to run smoothly.

We have made the process of installing the Webserver even easier by publishing an operation manual for the convenience of our users. The manual is intended to guide the users on every single step of the software installation and this will reduce the amount of mistakes and errors that they may encounter.

You can download the operation manual from here.
