Logging into i-Neighbour with a different mobile device

Friday, September 18, 2020 TimeTec 0 Comments



Introduction
By signing up and later logging into the account via the i-Neighbour app, the owner will have to input the mobile ID which was first used for registration. In the event where the owner changes their phone number, the owner can request the change by inserting the login email address to get a 4-digit email from i-Neighbour for resetting purposes.

This feature is designed to protect all account intrusion. Despite it is inevitable to avoid email and password breaches, this will protect the owner’s account when a different mobile ID is detected. In fact, this is important when the owner's privacy is stored within such as invoices, family members' contact details, and IoT (internet of things) that allow them to get through barrier gates and doors via using the app.

This article will be demonstrating the steps to log in to i-Neighbour if you are using a different phone.

Process 
1. Install the i-Neighbour apps from Google Play Store / Apps Store and Login.


2. Enter your username and password and tap on 'Login'.



3. You will need to request an activation code from i-Neighbour to be sent via email due to the use of a different mobile ID. Click to get an activation code.



4. Check your email for the code for account activation.



5. Insert the activation code into the empty field and click Activate Now.



6. Click login.



7. Now you can enjoy the features in the i-Neighbour apps.

Note: If some of the screenshots or steps viewed here are different from the ones in the current system, this is due to our continuous effort to improve our system from time to time. Please notify us at info@i-neighbour.com, we will update it as soon as possible.

Introduction
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is a feature in i-Vizit, whereby printed texts are digitized to allow for editing, storing, and display. As such, i-Vizit OCR is capable of producing a high degree of recognition accuracy allowing it to capture information from the scanned ID, Licence, or Passport Card during the check-in registration process. To ensure a smooth and hassle-free process, it is advisable to perform the necessary settings and calibrate the OCR feature before using it. The usage of a tablet stand is highly recommended to achieve better accuracy and keeping the calibrated and actual ID placement at a constant position. Below will be the setup process for OCR features in the TimeTec VMS using the i-Vizit app.

9. Capture the photo of the card. 

10. Drag and drop the edges to set the area of the card to be cropped. Then, click Next to proceed.

11. Drag and drop the cropping area to set for the user's image. Click on Submit once it is completed.

12. Once the calibration is completed, a success message pop-up window will be prompted.

13. The green tick indicates that the ID type has been calibrated. Please note that re-calibration might be required if the cardholder placed at the back of the tablet has been readjusted.

14. You may click on Test Capture to test and verify if the ID type has been calibrated properly. 
15. Once you have completed the OCR calibration, you may use this feature during the check-in registration process. Click on Snap Photo (OCR) during the Visitor Registration Process and select the type of ID to scan. The Name and ID number information will be captured from the card. Please check and ensure the extract data is correctly inputted.

R3 - R3 Master -Slave Anti-Passback 2 Doors Wiring Diagram & Setting

Monday, September 14, 2020 TimeTec 0 Comments



Some companies look for full control of their own premises. Requirements such as having just one way in and out with two doors to control the access movement within the building. This can be done by setting in our R3 device using the anti-passback feature. This setting will not have any problem with our current device and can be done easily with our Master-slave connection. Due to the distinct requirements raised by certain customers, the Master-Slave setup for door access solution using the Master-Master setup is still valid. In this tips we provide, we are using two R3 devices as an example for this Master-slave Anti-passback setting configuration and connection, please follow the instructions below:

1) Configure both R3 to change its function to support the Master slave setting by following the previous tip “Modifying Setup from Master-Master to Master-Slave”

2) Connect the R3 ( MASTER) - R3 (SLAVE) follow the connection diagram below:

For your better understanding, here is the connection block diagram:

3) For this connection, the External Relay 12VDC required for controlling the EM lock only opens accordingly with an anti-passback setting.
