Please make sure that the FingerTec
terminal you use for testing is listed above. Any terminals excluded from the list will not work with the Ingress Software. Next up, go to Ingress’s trial
version page to fill in the request form and submit it back to us. You are
required to insert your FingerTec terminal’s serial number for us to generate
the trial product key.
If you are not using a FingerTec terminal for testing,
you are still required to insert the testing terminal’s serial number,
and we will process it accordingly. If you do not have a terminal to test the
Ingress software, just leave the serial number text box empty and we will
provide you with an 8-digit device serial number and the trial product key. We
will email you once your Ingress trial application has been approved.
You can
access Ingress’s trial version page by clicking this link.
Once your application has been approved,
you may download the Ingress Trial Version software installer here.
Unzip the file, right click the
installation file and select Run as administrator to prompt the installation.
Follow the onscreen instructions to complete the installation.
Upon the Ingress installation, it is
mandatory to activate the device before you can use it to perform testing. There
are 2 ways to activate the device. While adding new devices to the software, tick
the checkbox for Device Online Activation.
Once the activation is completed, you
can see a “Successful Activation” message at the bottom left corner of the
window.
As mentioned above, if you do not have any
terminals to perform testing, please insert the given serial number at the IP
Address / URL text box and tick the checkbox for Device Online Activation. Click Add to
activate the serial number and then you may start to use the Ingress software
for testing.
Another way to activate the terminal is in Devices.
Click on the device that you want to activate and click Activate Device.
At the Activate Device window, there are 2
methods to activate the device; either Online or Offline. If you choose
to activate the device online, select Online and click Activate. The Ingress Software
will connect to our database server to verify and activate the device
accordingly. You will see the device’s activation status as well as the expiry
date.
If you choose to activate the device offline, kindly
contact us at [email protected] to request for the trial product key. Then insert
the given product key into the text box. Select Offline and click Activate to
proceed with the activation.
