TCP/IP PORT POWER PORT
SERIAL PORT
USB PORT
Wiring for Power Supply
Connection points for power and communication are available on top of the terminals.
Refer to the following diagrams for the terminals you require.
USB PORT
Linking with USB flash disk for remote data transfer.
TCP/IP PORT
Connect with CAT 5 cable for LAN connection, one end to this port
and another end to the computer’s TCP/IP Port.
TCP/IP for Single Connection – Linking the terminal to a single computer
using TCP/IP requires Ethernet 10/100Base-T Crossover Cable. The cable can be
used to cascade hubs or to connect Ethernet stations back-to-back without a
hub. It works with both 10Base-T and 100Base-TX.
TCP/IP for Network Connection – Linking
the terminals to multiple computers using TCP/IP
requires Ethernet 10/100Base-T Straight Thru Ca-
ble or “whips”. The cable works with both 10Base-
T and 100Base-TX, connecting a network interface
card to a hub or network outlet.
POWER SUPPLY PORT
Insert the Power Adapter point to this port for power.

10
RS232/RS485/WIEGAND CONNECTION PORT
RS232 – Connection to a computer using RS232 cable.
RS485 Single Connection - Connection to a single computer using RS485 wire.
RS485 Network Connection - Connection to multiple computers using Daisy Chain connec-
tion.
Wiegand Output – Connecting with third party connector or terminal(s).
TCMS V3 Online Activation
TCMS V3 is a genuine software by FingerTec. Every FingerTec time attendance mod-
el comes bundled with a unique license key. To start using the terminal with TCMS
V3, you must connect the terminal to TCMS V3 and perform an online activation.
TCMS V3 reads the serial number of your terminal and sends it for verification at the
FingerTec server via the Internet.
In case you do not have an Internet connection, you need to do offline activation.
Please send the serial number and model of your terminal to your local reseller or
[email protected] to request for a product key.
t
Installation and Setup of TCMS V3
Install TCMS V3 in a PC that fulfils the software’s minimum requirements. Refer to
http://www.fingertec.com/customer/download/postsales/SUM-TCMSV3-E.pdf for
the TCMS V3 user guide online. Setup Wizard will require you to do online activation
before any connection is established between TCMS V3 and the terminal(s).
Connecting the Terminals to TCMS V3
DETERMINING TERMINAL NUMBER
Identify the number of your terminals to differentiate them between one another.
TCMS V3 can connect up to 999 units of terminal. Press Menu > Options > Comm
Opt > Dev Num > Select the number.
USING TCP/IP
IP address is important, as it is a unique address of the terminal in LAN. Without the
IP address, locating the specific terminal is not possible. To input the IP address of
the terminal: Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt > IP Addr > Key in IP address.
SETTING UP ETHERNET
It is important to setup the Ethernet to connect the terminals using TCP/IP connec-
tion. Setting up the Ethernet is done by enabling the Ethernet function:
Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt > Ethernet > Yes.
Turn off the terminal after you have set the Ethernet setting to Yes. Now, plug-in the
network plug to the Ethernet interface and turn the power on.

please configure the netmask, gateway and netspeed for the terminal.
Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt > NetMask > Insert the numbers.
Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt > Gateway > Insert the numbers.
Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt > NetSpeed > Choose the speed of your Ethernet
connection.
USING RS232 CONNECTION
For connection via RS232,baudrate is the determinant of communication speed be-
tween the terminal and the software. The higher the baudrate, the faster the speed is.
To turn on RS232 connection and set the baudrate: Press Menu > Options >
Comm Opt > RS232 > Change the RS232 connection to Y.
To change baudrate: Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt > Baudrate > Change the
Baudrate accordingly.
USING RS485 CONNECTION
For connection via RS485, baudrate is also the determinant of communication speed
between the terminal and the software but the speed must be according to the speed
of theconverter. Check your converter for the speed.
To turn on RS485 connection and set the baudrate: Press Menu > Options >
Comm Opt > RS232 > Change the RS485 connection to Y.
To change baudrate: Press Menu > Options > Comm Opt > Baudrate > Change the

Understanding the Need for USB Flash Disk
Communication between the terminal and a PC is very important to upload and down-
load transaction data for time attendance and door access reports. The terminal offers
a few communication options such as LAN and serial cable connections but sometimes
there are scenarios that require USB (Universal Serial Bus) connectivity. USB can con-
nect to the terminal with a computer for download and upload of user information and
transaction logs. In the terminal, the USB Flash Disk function is known as Pen Drive Man-
agement.
Type of USB
There are various types of USB available in the market. The terminal can only work with
USB flash disks that support minimum Linux Kernel 2.4.x, working fine with Imation,
Transcend and Pen Drive (minimum support Linux Kernel 2.4.x) To determine the type
of USB compatible by FingerTec terminal, please refer to this link http://www.fingertec.

The fingerprint terminals are versatile and it can accept card verifications. This chap-
ter covers the Radio Frequency Identification or better known as RFID system. The
terminals accept RFID card with specifications of 64-bit, 125kHz.
Enrollment of RFID Card
RFID can be enrolled alone, with fingerprint or with password. Each RFID card comes
with a unique ID and the terminals will read from the numbers and match it with the
card.
Enrollment of RFID is easy. Press Menu > User Manage > Enroll User/Admin > Reg
RFID > OK > Do you want to do new enrollment? > OK > Insert the user ID > OK >
Wave the card to the induction area and the machine will display the card number on
the LCD along with the User ID > OK > The terminal will display User ID-C meaning
that the ID is enrolled with card > OK(Save)
Deleting RFID Card
RFID card can be used again and again but the information in the card must be de-
leted first before inserting new information.
Press Menu > User Manage > Delete > Input the User ID and wave the card at the
induction area > The LCD will ask whether you want to delete the User ID-C > The
terminal will ask whether you want to delete User ID > And to delete user. Press OK
to all.
Once the card has been emptied, it can be used again.
Changing Card ID
Press Menu > User Manage > Enroll User/Admin > Reg RFID > ESC > Change Card ID
