How to configure Time Guardian for connection:
1. Create a new Location in Time Guardian for the FPT-40 Fingerprint
terminal by clicking on the New Location
the following:
Location Name: Enter a unique name that will be used to
describe the area or site where a terminal or a group of
terminals is located.
Terminal Type: Select Fingerprint from the drop down list as the
terminal type.
Connection Type: If you answered, "Yes" to the question, "Do
you have Terminal(s) other than direct-connect MTX,
Fingerprint?" in the Clock tab of the Wizard, you must configure
those terminals for remote operation. The FPT-40 Fingerprint
terminal can communicate with your PC via a direct connection
(RS-232C or RS-485C) or Ethernet (network) connections
(IP address required).
2. If you selected a Connection Type of Direct for your FPT-40
Fingerprint terminal, you should complete the following:
Time Zone Offset: This can be used if your PC and the
Location (terminals) are located in different time zones. The
default value is 0:00. Use the drop down lists to configure the
offset.
Active: When checked, the Location will begin sending and
receiving data.
Com Port: Select the Com Port for the PC [that the USB
CommStik is connected to] that will communicate with the
fingerprint terminal.
Note: If the terminal is connected to the PC with the CommStik
cable when during TG installation with the Setup Wizard, the
terminal will be auto-detected and you will not need to determine
the Comm Port number.
See the following for an example of how to determine the Comm
Port number using Windows
Select Start from the task bar and right-click on My Computer.
