Chapter 2
Management of Device and Door
This chapter guides you on how to install and manage FingerTec devices into Ingress and
assigning them to doors.
Devices
Devices refer to the FingerTec physical terminals installed to guard every door/entrance.
There are 3 types of physical terminals:
Ingressus door controller
FingerTec standalone terminal
Keylock series (7700 and 8800)
Ingressus door controller can work with slave terminals. It is the master that will store &
transfer data, control door and alarm activities. Ingressus door controller can link up to a
maximum of 4 slave terminals (R2c, i-Kadex or k-Kadex). Slave terminals only work as capturing station for fingerprints, cards or password. The captured data is sent to Ingressus for
verification before Ingressus can grant access to users. Ingressus can work with AUX input
(e.g.: heat and smoke sensor, PIR motion detector) and output (e.g.: alarm siren, strobe light,
IP camera).
FingerTec standalone terminals refer to all FingerTec terminals, for example R2, AC900, Q2i,
Face ID series. The terminals have individual processors and memory, to verify and store users’ data. Standalone terminals can be paired with slave terminals as an entry-exit system.
Slave terminals capture fingerprints, card or password data then sends them to master for
verification.
Keylock series refer to FingerTec biometric mechanical door lock. The Keylock series has
integrated processor and memory, to verify/store users’ data. However, it does not communicate with Ingress directly as it only has a USB port for data transfer.
Add Device Manually
You must add each device into the list in Ingress before you can manage any of it. Adding
devices to Ingress requires the device to connect to Ingress via network (TCP/IP or RS 485).
However, standalone terminals and the Keylock series supports USB flash disk for transferring data and settings with Ingress.
Every device has a unique serial number, which is important for activation in Ingress. Contact your local resellers or support@ fingertec.com by providing the serial number of the device in case you fail to activate online.

can know the storage status of the device at the Record section.
Network: You can change types of communication mode in this page, for example change from TCP/IP to
RS485. You can update the TCP/IP settings (e.g.: change to new IP address) or RS485 settings (e.g.: change
baud rate to 9600bps). All new settings will take effect after you upload the new settings to the device.
Biometric: This page is only effective when connecting to devices that support fingerprint or face recog-
nition. Amend these settings accordingly after you click the Edit button:
Only 1:1 verification: Set to No by default so users can gain access immediately after verifying their finger or
face. Change this to Yes if you want users to insert their ID before fingerprint/face verification.
Fingerprint algorithm: VX 10.0 is the latest fingerprint matching algorithm supported by the device. Only
change to VX 9.0 if your environment is using the older algorithm. This option is not applicable to Ingressus because it only supports VX 10.0.
Face/Fingerprint 1:1 Threshold: The level of matching security if you want users to insert user ID before fingerprint/face verification. For fingerprint, the range is from 0 to 50, where 50 is the highest. For face, it ranges
from 0 to 99 where 99 is the highest. The default values are 15 for fingerprint and 70 for face.
Face/Fingerprint 1:N Threshold: The level of matching security if you allow users to verify by fingerprint/face
without inserting user ID. The default values are 45 for fingerprint and 75 for face.
Power: You can configure the duration (in minutes) for device to wait before going into idle mode.

sess the level of fail verifications happening at this device and adjust the biometric settings to improve
the verification process. Select No and the device will not store this record.
Master Record State: You must define the device as Master or Slave If two standalone devices are installed to
control one door. Normally the standalone device controlling entry is set as Master, and at the exit is the
Slave. Ignore if you are installing slave device with a standalone device. This is important if you are using
Antipassback function. The Master device stores all entry-exit records to justify Antipassback status.
Antipassback: Feature that forces users to verify every time he/she comes in or leaves a zone. In case he/she
is tailgating another user without verification to access a zone, the device will block his/her verification to
gain access again. You can select any of the following settings to suit your environment.
20
In: Activate this to force users to verify when leaving a zone. Users can skip verification when coming
into the zone.
Out: Activate this to force users to verify when coming into a zone. Users can skip verification when
leaving the zone.
In/Out: Activate this to force users to verify both when coming in and leaving a zone.

the system. System creates 1 door if Ingressus I is added as device,
2 doors if Ingressus II is added. You will find the IP address of Ingressus display at the left panel.
In Ingressus II, you will send 2 lines of the same IP address to indicate 2 doors. Under each door, there is an in and out device (slave
devices). Refer to Ingressus installation guide to understand how
to define door and IN-OUT slave devices. This is all controlled by
the wiring between Ingressus and slave devices.
Right click at the IP address of Ingress to rename, for example Ingressus II – R&D office. Rename the
slave device by their models for
easy reference.
23
Add Keylock to Door

add the device into the system. Ingress adds the device to the door immediately. You can rename the device for easy reference.
Conguring Settings to Doors
You can configure access settings in Ingress and upload to both devices paired with the
door. This ensures both standalone devices apply the same access settings during operation. If you are using a standalone device with a slave to guard the door, settings will only
be sent to the standalone device.
Ingress treats Ingressus II as 2 different doors even though it is from one device. You can
configure access settings for each door individually. Ingressus II can store and apply the
settings to doors accordingly.
Ignore this if you are installing with the Keylock series. Due to the lack of communication
cable, Ingress cannot upload any settings to Keylock. Thus you do not need to configure
anything in Ingress.

Door Sensor Type: Select the type of door sensor installed at the device. The most general type is NC. Door
sensor is an important component to monitor door activities. In case of door force open or door remain
open, the door sensor reports it to the device. You can see the status of door under the Monitoring page
in Ingress. Select None if you did not install door sensor, but you can no longer monitor the activities
from this door.
Configurations to apply to door with Ingress only
Permanent Door Open/Close Holiday Time Zone: Select to follow time range settings to allow free access (without
verification at the device) to the zone during holiday. Requires setup of Holiday list and Permanent Door
Open Close Holiday Time Zone. Leave this blank to ignore this feature.
Punch Interval: Set the time duration between 1st and 2nd verification from the same user, for example 10s.
Ingressus will not grant access to the user if he/she verifies twice within 10s from any slave devices.
Verify Mode: To select combination of verification to gain access.
Duress Password: Same as Duress Alarm Password Trigger.
Emergency Password: During emergency, users can enter an emergency password to unlock any door (con-
trolled by Ingressus) at anytime. Time zone or access control settings will not affect it. This is normally
done by the administrator.
Door sensor delay: Set the time duration before Ingressus triggers the alarm if door remains open.
Close and Reverse State: Activate this if you want EM lock or dropbolt to lock immediately once door closes.
You must install door sensor together with the door lock. When the door sensor touches each other, Ingressus receives the signal and activates the door lock system immediately. This overrides the Door Open
Duration settings and can avoid unauthorized access or tailgating incident.

Chapter 3
Setup of Zones
This chapter guides you on setting up zone installations using Ingressus.
This chapter is only applicable for Ingressus. Skip this chapter if you are not installing any
Ingressus controllers in your environment. You can set up zone installations with Ingressus
to perform more secure access control settings.
There are a total of 5 types of zones, which are:
Antipassback
Fire alarm
Interlocking
First Card Unlock
Multi Card Open
Antipassback
Apply Antipassback to force all users to verify every time when coming in or leaving the
work place. Ingressus blocks user access if the user missed his/her previous verification
record. This is an important feature to stop users from tailgating others during access. Ingress can collect the full IN-OUT records of every user.
