1.4 Work Principle

1.4.1 Fingerprint T&A
Fingerprint sensor reads human fingerprint and makes it into corresponding encrypt documents stored in device.
When verifying, sensor will compare it with the registered fingerprint. It verifies successfully if fingerprints are
accordant. It can not identify in some situations, such as, too dry, too wet, too dirty, bruised skin and so on (see
pictures below). So its better to register backup fingerprints. The thumb, index finger and middle finger are
recommended. Each user can register maximum ten fingerprints.

After putting fingers on the sensor, the fingerprint information and verifying time are recorded into device and can
be transmitted to computer by appropriate connection, such as, TCP/IP or RS485. Attendance logs can be checked
in device or downloaded as excel sheet.
Note: User should put his/her finger in correct posture to register fingerprint. Refer to the following picture:

1.4.2 T&A with Card Reader (optional)

Card reader is a kind of storage equipment which can record digital information of card. It can connect to external
equipments like E-lock, door switch, etc.
Card reader can only identify specific cards which have been registered in device. When swiping card, the
information of the card will be identified and stored in device. Check records directly in device or connect device with
computer by TCP/IP or RS485 to check identification records in software.
Response distance of card identification varies according to swiping postures. 2.5-5 cm is the most suitable
distance. The best posture is keeping card parallel with the keypad. And keep it in induction zone until card reader
identify successfully.
Note: Please do not slap device when swiping cards.

time attendance. Its suitable for some situations, while inconvenient for some others. For example, during office
hour, user needs to access in and out many times, if all the verifications count as time attendance records, the
records will be messy and hard to manage.

attendance and opens the door at the same time.

Select this option and set value. The value range is 0-30. For example, set 4 as NC-Time Group; it means lock
keeps closed during all the time zones of Time Group 4. (Refer to 3.4.2 TIME GROUP for time group setting.)

3.5.1 Timetable
Enter MENU, select ATTENDANCE > Timetable

3.5.5.1Timetable
Total 3 timetables are available to set. See the following picture:

Select timetable 1 as an example, it shows as follows:

Here you can set valid time period of checking in and out. Begin & End Check In time and Begin & End Check
Out time all range from 0-180 (Minute). After setting, select Yes in Startup Timetable to enable it.
For example: Set timetable 1 as 8:00-17:00, Begin & End Check In time and Begin & End Check Out time as
20, it means 7:40-8:20 and 16:40-17:20 are valid time periods to check attendance.
Note: Begin Check In: 7:40, Check In time: 8:00, "End Check In": 8:20
Begin Check Out: 16:40, Check Out time: 17:00, End Check Out:17:20
If you havent check in or check out during valid time attendance period, it is absent.
If you check in during the period between Check In and End Check In, it is late. (8:00-8:20)
If you check out during the period between Begin Check Out and Check Out, it is leave early.
(16:40-17:00)

Select Yes to enable timetable. After setting, press OK and it shows Continue to set? Yes is to enter into next
users timetable setting. No to return to previous menu.

3.5.2 Time Period

Function: Set valid period for signing in, namely users are only allowed to check attendance during valid Time
Period. Checking attendance out of this period is rejected by device. It can be used to avoid casually changing of
shifts, such as in the case of three-shifts per day.
For example, a company has 3 attendance Timetables everyday: 00:00-08:00, 08:00-16:00 and 16:00-24:00.
Staff takes 3 shifts one after another week by week, namely taking one shift for a week and change to another next
week. Its valid to check time attendance in any of 3 Timetables. To avoid staff changing shifts by themselves, you
can set valid period for signing in. Take shift 08:00-16:00 for example: the Begin & End check in time and Begin &
End check out time are all 30 minutes; you can restrict users in this shift by setting valid Time Period for signing in
as 07:30-16:30. Thus user can only check attendance during this period, otherwise verifying is rejected.
Enter MENU, select ATTENDANCE > Time Period. Total 3 Time Periods are available to set (Time Period 1,
Time Period 2 and Time Period 3). Select Time Period 1 for example, it shows as follows:

You can set maximum 24 time ranges for each Time Period, and bind each user with one Time Period, namely
each user can bind with at most 24 different valid periods for signing in per day.
Note: 00:00-00:00 means the whole day is invalid for signing in. 00:00-23:59 means the whole day is valid for
signing in. Default setting is that all users are bound with Time Period 1 (00:00-23:59), namely all users are
allowed to check attendance all day.

Chapter 4 Questions & Answers

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
Question 1: Are there any notes about installation and operation of fingerprint device?
Answer: The following 3 aspects should be noted:
(1) Initialize device before using to clear all lawless fingerprints or passwords that may exist.
(2) Since the installation of fingerprint device affects its future performance directly, people who install it should be
professional and meet the requirements of ZKS Company strictly. Please dont change installation requirements and
parameters optionally.
(3) Pay attention to maintenance of fingerprint device in daily operation to ensure that it is running in good condition.

Question 2: Could it still verify if Fingerprint Window is dirty?

Answer: It can work even if the Fingerprint Window is dirty. But you must pay attention to the maintenance of
device all the time, especially fingerprint window. If device is dirty, please wipe it with soft cloth and avoid using
organic solvent of viscous liquid, alcohol or oil, etc.

Question 3: What about the durability of fingerprint module? How long is the service life under normal condition

and operation?

Answer: Our fingerprint device adopts the most advanced fingerprint module, which is processed with tough and
thick glass material with strongly wearable degree. The normal operation life can reach five years.

Question 4: Fingerprint could be copied, can copied fingerprint be used to verify?

Answer: Fingerprint picture can be copied, but the copied fingerprint picture cannot be identified by fingerprint
sensor, because ZKS fingerprint device adopts the most advanced living fingerprint identification technology and
finger sensor just verify living fingerprint.

Question 5: Is it possible that someones fingerprint is the same as mine so that he/she can verify as me?
Answer: Fingerprints vary from one person to another, so other persons fingerprints could not be the same as
yours. Even 10 fingerprints of one person are different from each other.

Question 6: What can I do if my registered finger is scratched? Can I verify freely?

Answer: If your finger is just scratched a little, it won't affect the verification of fingerprint too much. ZKS fingerprint
device adopts the automatic restoring function which is able to restore the rupture of fingerprint according to the
fingerprint structure. But it cannot restore completely if the finger is scratched seriously. So we suggest that you
register one or more backup fingerprints for exceptional circumstances. If your fingers are all injured, you can use
password or card for identification.

Question 7: Most of other fingerprint devices adopt Capacitance Fingerprint Sensor, while ZKS fingerprint device
adopts Optics Fingerprint Sensor, which is better?

Answer: Currently, technologies used for collecting fingerprint image are mainly two kinds: Optics Technology and
Capacitance Technology.
Capacitance Technology gets complete fingerprint based on chip size. Chip is expensive and its collection scope is
small. In addition, its fingerprint collection is not reliable which makes it difficult to use. Whats more, its hard to read
fingerprint if its affected by static interference, salinity of sweat, dirt or slight abrasion of finger.
While for Optics, it collects fingerprint by reflection of light. With the improvement of the primary optics
image-capturing technology, optics fingerprint collection sensor provides more reliable solution. Newest optics
fingerprint sensor adopts the imaging technology with 500 DPI, which is suitable for people aged 6-80 to verify. Its
newest optical path imaging system improves the anti-interference ability. The fingerprint sensor surface is made of
nanometer plating film which is more wearable. All the advantages with favorable price make Optics Sensor
outshine Capacitance Sensor.
