How it works

Installation

1. BioEnable FRT comes preconfigured and ready to use. Provide power supply to the system and start using.

2. It has no fingerprints registered in the database and show "Database Empty" message on pressing ENTER key and scanning finger.

3. First finger registered by pressing MENU key automatically becomes top administrator.

4. Once the admin is registered more users can only be registered after verifying admin fingers. Admin can also give admin rights to other users.

5. Plug your Ethernet LAN network cable into network port provided in FRT.

6. You can change few settings and configure BioEnable FRT to work with your Ethernet LAN network. It is also possible to configure it to use central database residing on your server in case you have multiple FRT machines. To do this you can connect standard keyboard and CRT monitor to FRT and do configurations the way you do with a computer.

7. Before registering employees fingerprints, install TimeTRONIX TA Time Attendance (TA) software software on your office computer or server.

8. Enter company, department, shift, calendar and other details particular to your company.

2. FRT scans his finger and matches the scanned fingerprint with the database of registered fingers stored in its memory

3. Employee is identified and success sound is played along with SUCCESS [#ID] message on the LCD  and green LED blinks

4. Employee's IN time is recorded with date and time in the FRT database itself

5. When employee leaves the office his OUT time is recorded in the same way

Administration

1. BioEnable FRT is connected to the company's  10/100 base-T Ethernet network and its data is accessible anywhere on the LAN. BioEnable FRT can be assigned its own IP address.

2. Administrator imports log data in time attendance software, he may edit few records if required or remove invalid entries.

3. This data is then processed further to generate data for reports

4. More complex scenarios with lunch IN/OUT, tea breaks, overtime are also supported.

5. Reports can be generated and printed using the software
