NOTE

3.2 TERMINAL ACTIVATION VIA TCP/IP

Make sure that you have connected the terminal and the computer

installed with TCMS V2 to a switch using a CAT5 cable. Once the cable
is connected, assign a fixed/static IP address to your computer. Refer
to 3.2.1 for instructions on how to configure your IP address. You can
then start activating your terminal.

The terminal of which its Product Key is being used to install TCMS V2

will appear on the first line in the

FingerTec Terminal

window. Proceed

by clicking on the relevant cell below the

Model

header and choos-

ing the model of terminal. Please go to

product.fingertec.com

to find

out more about FingerTec products.

Proceed by clicking on the relevant cell below the

IP Address

header

and specifying the IP address for your terminal. The default IP address
is 192.168.1.201. You might have a different IP address; find the details
from your IT personnel.

There is a checker labeled

Disabled

on the far right of the FingerTec

Terminal window. Uncheck the

Disabled

button for the system to start

connecting to the terminal. The software may take a moment to do
so.

Once the

Disabled

checker is disabled, the system reads the IP ad-

dress and displays the correct serial number of the terminal. Once the

Apply

button is enabled, click it to proceed.

You will now be prompted with a pop-up window requiring an Activa-

tion Key. Insert the correct key and the

Apply

button will be enabled

when you have typed in the Activation Key. Click on the

Apply

button

and the system will prompt a

Congratulations

message. Click

OK

to

proceed.

It is crucial that you save the information to avoid connection loss be-

tween TCMS V2 and the terminal. Once the terminal is activated in
TCMS V2, all icons on the software will be activated, and you are now
ready to configure and use TCMS V2.
