Previously,
our Face ID terminal camera will automatically perform facial identification
during the verification process and or in the situation when users can be
detected within the vicinity of the terminal.
Responding
to our customers’ feedback, our R&D team have come out with a new firmware
enabling users the option to select whether they want the terminal to
automatically perform face identification.
You can download the latest face ID 3 firmware
here.
New
Feature
In
addition to that, we have also come up with a new feature for Face ID 3. This
feature makes it compulsory for users to select any status key on the screen of
the terminal (i.e. Check-in, OT-out, etc.) before switching on the camera for
verification.
Go
to Menu > System > Log Settings > Limit Face > Select either ‘Yes’
or ‘No’.
If
‘Yes’ is selected, users must press the status key before verification in order
for the camera function to be activated.
If
‘No’ is selected, the camera will automatically scan the users even though they
are just merely passing by. However, this function will speed up the
verification process as you do not need to press any key before verification.
As our endeavour to serve you better, we have upgraded
our FingerTec Data Processor (FTDP) to version 1.7.8. The arrival of the
all-new FTDP comes with an additional feature in which it allows users to synchronize
the time of their devices on a daily basis.
This feature allows you to set a specific time
for terminal synchronization and as a result, all your FingerTec devices will
be synchronized automatically when you have booted your computer.
In this month’s update for Ingress, we
have added 5 new features for Ingress users.

New Features:
Viewing
Employee’s Photo
1.
You can download
and view an employees’ photo which was captured during the process of verification
under Data Audit List. In order to do so, you must first check the Display
Attendance Photo in Data Grid box. After that, the system will display the
selected employee’s photo. Please note that only selected FingerTec models
comes with this function.
Upload/Download
Employee Photo
2.
You can now upload
and download your employee’s photo. What will happen during this event is that
during verification, the option to upload and download will appear. In the
event that you have chosen to download the selected employee’s photo, it will
then transfer the photo from the device and upload it into our Ingress
software. Please note that this function is only available for FingerTec colour
screen models.
Display

With the new
Ingress update, we have updated the calendar’s function to display holidays in Access
Level Module as an effort to ease your configuration. You can find a similar
function under the Attendance module too .

great news for you. Apart from the languages that Ingress currently support, we
have now added German to the language selection list for the convenience of our

Data
consumption will occur when a GPRS enabled device connect to the software via a
wireless connection. When data is transmitted via the GPRS connection, you will
be charged accordingly depending on the telco services. Your data consumption
rate will be measured based on the data plan and rate package that you have
signed up with your telco provider and the GPRS service terms and conditions
that they have stipulated.
From
the legend provided below, you can check and refer at which step the data will
be transmitted and the heaviness of the data in order to ensure that you will
not be overcharged by your telco provider for heavy GPRS data usage.

The FMM 100 new core board is loaded with 800MHz microprocessor, 128MB
RAM and 256MB flash memory. With these new specifications, it allows the
introduction of a new firmware with enhanced features to improve our products.
For a start, we will introduce this FMM 100 core board in TA100C and AC100C
series, the other colored models will be loaded with the new core board soon
after. One major apparent change that you will see and experience will be the
freshly designed icons when you access into the operation menu.
The video guide of the new firmware is now ready. The video guide will
show you the new and existing functions of the terminal and simple ways to
configure them step-by-step.
Click the following link to watch the Video Guide.
FingerTec will be releasing its new core board FMM
100, which carries 800 MHz microprocessor and 128 MB of RAM, together with 256
MB flash memory. The improved hardware allows our R&D to build a new firmware
which carries a lot more useful features.
However, the new core board and new firmware links up
with our software perfectly and allow users transfer from all old devices. Thus,
the new hardware and firmware can still work in the same ecosystem perfectly.
Apart from retaining the existing features of our
firmware, we will also be adding more powerful features to enhance the
firmware’s accessibility. Here are some of the features:
1. The quality of
graphics for the main screen during standby has been enhanced.
2. The new design
icons when you access into operation menu.
3. The User Role feature
allows you to create a secondary administrator. You can control his/her access
to specific modules and features in the device. There are total 3 different
user roles that you can configure. You can assign specific roles to him/her as
secondary administrator.
4. The new firmware
allows you to backup or restore its data (user information, setup parameters
and transaction logs) into its internal memory or USB flash disk. You no longer
need to worry about the data stored in the device if you wish to reset and everything
back to default settings.
5. The attendance
data downloads into USB flash disk is encrypted to avoid users to amend the
data. You can only load the data into TCMS v2 or Ingress software to process
attendance. However in the new firmware, you can set the device not to apply
any encryption to the attendance data download into USB flash disk. You can use
the attendance data with your own software to process calculation. Please take
note, you must apply the encryption if you want to use attendance data in USB
flash disk with TCMS v2 and Ingress software.
You can now configure the settings so
device can delete the old attendance data after the download into USB process.
You do not need to clear the storage everytime after download into USB flash
disk.
