Introduction to H2i

FingerTec H2i is a simple master terminal, functioning as a time attendance and
door access device and it can be used as a time attendance recorder as well. The H2i
has a simple and sleek design as it comes without a keypad or any form of a display
screen. It communicates with its users mainly through its voice commands, as well
as its dual color LED light. To perform administrative functions on the terminal, an
administrator card is needed. However, the H2i also has the option of using a nu­meric USB keypad as an administrative tool. As usual, more advanced management
of FingerTec H2i can be done via the included software in the package.

Security Features
