FingerTec Webserver - Manual (Page 3)

Introduction to webserver
Fingertec Webserver is a basic web version of our TCMS V2 software. We highly recom-
mend that you install the webserver into a PC that can double as a server. The designated
PC will need to have a fixed IP address in order to transform into a workstation that links
together the Fingertec terminals via GPRS or Internet. No IP address is required on any of
the terminals as the terminals will search for any GPRS or Internet signal available to estab-
lish the connection.
Webserver installation is hassle-free as it contains only one single installation file, which are
packed with all the necessary components for the software to work.
The information downloaded from the terminal will be stored in MySQL database. In order
to retrieve information for time attendance calculation or reporting, you will need to link
the TCMS V2 software to MySQL database. You can also fully utilize the information in the
MySQL database by using your own software or application.
