FAQ - Setting
What are the best practice for implementing the
ATMS?
The ATMS is designed to be placed at entrances
indoors. Although outdoor placement is possible,
the system would need to be placed in the shade,
such as under a tent, so the thermometer and iPad
are not in direct sunlight or rain. We recommend
marking the measurement waiting areas with yellow
tape to clearly guide users on maintaining social
distancing standards.
What is the estimated set up time?
Stand assembly takes approximately 30 minutes
while the iFORA TM app configuration takes less
than 10 minutes if the Wi-Fi connection is ready.
What should I pay attention to when setting up the
ATMS?
• Angle the thermometer sensor toward the
forehead (vertical to the ground).
• After powering on the iPad, allow 8 seconds for
calibration.
• Keep the area in front of the thermometer clear
from heat, light, or windy sources.
• We recommend marking the standing position
on the ground to guide users on maintaining the
proper distance with the thermometer.
How much space does the station require?
Approximately 4 square feet and 5'5" height.
What if someone is too tall or too short and they
touch the station?
We suggest adjusting and setting the thermometer
at a lower height so that taller people can squat or
bend their knees during a temperature scan. Another
approach is to set up two stations to accommodate
different height ranges: one adjusted at a higher
height and one at a lower height. We also suggest
sanitizing the easily accessible places regularly in
case a person does make their own adjustments.
Are the instructions for the public to see or should
someone be manning the ATMS?
An instruction board is attached to the ATMS.
Additionally, instructions like "Stay closer/Stay still"
will appear on the screen. There is no need to assign
someone to survey the devices; however, there
should be someone nearby to guide anyone with
higher readings.
At what temperature will the alarm go off?
The default temperature for the alarm is set at 99.5°
F and above. You can reset the threshold in the
settings, but please be sure to assign a proper value
suitable to your environment.
May I turn off the photo function?
Yes, you can turn off the photo function in settings.
