1 • INTRODUCTION
The FingerTec Data Processor (FTDP) is a basic software designed to interact with all
FingerTec terminals. The FTDP was developed to help ease the system integrator or soft-
ware developer’s job of fully integrating their FingerTec terminals with their company’s
existing systems.
The FTDP software’s main functions are:
Downloading / uploading user information from/to terminals
Downloading transaction logs from terminals
Configuring settings of terminals
Exporting user information and transaction logs into various file formats for input into
a 3rd party system
Storing data into a Microsoft Access database as a centralized database which is acces-
sible by using the ODBC Manager
Previously a system integrator or software developer had to use the BioBridge SDK (Soft-
ware Development Kit) to develop their own solutions or software to obtain data from
FingerTec terminals. ” Previously, a system integrator or software developer would have
to use the BioBridge SDK (Software Development Kit) to develop their own solutions
or software to obtain data from FingerTec terminals. With the FDTP, you will be able to
perform the basic functions such as adding/deleting users, as well as able to export the
raw data out of the terminal, to be processed by a third party software of your choice. In
short, the FDTP is a basic version of the TCMS v2 and the BioBridge SDK combined.
Software developers can now integrate the information and transaction logs from the
via Microsoft Access to build up or customize a total solution for users”
