Introduction
FingerTec® TCMS V2 Viewer is a web application which allows user to view his independent
attendance records online without having to request for administrator’s authorization.
A computer installed with TCMS V2 software which referred to as TCMS V2 Server, is a
requirement to use FingerTec® TCMS V2 Viewer.
Configuration of TCMS V2 Server to Activate Viewer
1. Enter the Viewer Activation Code (VAC) into the TCMS V2. The VAC is required for
FingerTec® TCMS V2 Viewer to gather user’s attendance records from the TCMS V2
Server. Each VAC is unique for each unit of FingerTec® reader. Hence, administrator
must enter the VAC for every unit of FingerTec® reader in use.
2. Install the FingerTec® TCMS V2 Viewer.
3.
Activate the FingerTec® TCMS V2 Viewer by entering the VAC. A VAC is applicable to
one TCMS V2 Server. If there is more than one TCMS V2 Server in use, a new TCMS
V2 VAC is required to activate the Viewer.
Login to Viewer
Any computer that is connected to the TCMS V2 Server via network connection can be used to
login to Viewer.
Administrator can login into FingerTec® TCMS V2 Viewer by 2 methods:
1. Password - If the administrator has a password enrolled in TCMS V2 software (TCMS
V2 Server), he can login by using the same password. It is recommended to change
login password in the initial login to secure future logins.
2.
Fingerprint - If the administrator did not enroll any password in TCMS V2 software
(TCMS V2 Server), instead he has enrolled his fingerprint, he can verify his fingerprint
using OFIS scanner to gain access. A separate OFIS scanner must be attached to the
computer to do the fingerprint scanning.
For first time login, the administrator can register a new login password, so he does not
need to use OFIS scanner in future logins. The Administrator can opt to login via
fingerprint verification using OFIS scanner if he chooses to for better security.
Administrator is allowed to do configuration in FingerTec® TCMS V2 Viewer and he can
check attendance records of all users. Administrator also has the authority to register
normal users to login into FingerTec® TCMS V2 Viewer.
Normal users can login into FingerTec® TCMS V2 Viewer by using password only. A user
can use the password created to access into TCMS V2 to login into Viewer. Else, user must
request for a new password from the administrator to login into Viewer.
Normal users have the authority to view and check independent attendance records in the
Viewer and to change login password only.
