CONFIGURATIONS OF TIME ZONES

Every time a fingerprint is captured and sent to FRIS for verification, the process occurs

as below,

A time zone consists of a Start time and an End time. If the user’s clocking time falls in

between the Start time and End time, FRIS considers this is as a “valid time period”.
Example, time zone 1 = 08:00 – 20:00, any time that fall between 8:00am and 8:00pm

is consider as a valid time period. Other than that, it is considered as an“invalid time

period”

If you would like to allow all day access to your

users, you must use a free access time zone,

which is 00:00 to 2:59.

If you would like to block a user from accessing all days, you must use the forbidden

time zone, which is 2:59 to 00:00.
FRIS, offers a total of 50 time zones. The default time zone is 00:00 to 2:59
After configuring time zones, a time zone group is required. A time zone group can sup-

port up to time zones. This is applicable if users have multiple time zones.

For example, a cleaner can enter a premise to

do cleaning during office hours, but she is not

allowed to enter before or after working hours

and lunch break. Therefore there are time

zones assigned,
Therefore time zone group = (Time zone 1,

Time zone 2, Time zone )

FRIS, offers a total of 5 time zones groups. Each new enrolled user is added into Default

Time Zone 1 by default, Time Zone Group 1 = free access time zone, time zone 1.
In short, if you would like to use time zones, you need to perform the following

Configure time zone

Assign time zone into time zone group

Assign users into time zone group.
