Installing a New Biometric Device

You have received a biometric device and want to set it up for employee attendance tracking. Installing it correctly ensures accurate punch-ins and seamless integration with SalaryBox.


Installation Steps:

  1. Mount the Wall Plate

    • Find the metal back plate (it has two holes and a small screw).

    • Use two screws to fix this plate securely to the wall.

  2. Attach the Device

    • Hang the biometric device on the mounted plate.

    • Tighten the small screw at the bottom to secure the device.

  3. Power It On

    • Plug in the power adapter provided with the device.

    • The device will turn on automatically.

  4. Ignore Extra Wires

    • Wires like yellow and green are for access control—skip them unless you're using that feature.

  5. Set the Right Height

    • Mount the device at shoulder level for the average person to ensure accurate face recognition or fingerprint scans.
