Configuring the Data Capture

The WB2000 Series Clock can run one of two clock programs, depending on the type of data capture hardware on the clock. The data capture hardware can be either a fingerprint scanner or a barcode or magnetic stripe card reader.

The biometric clock program is used for WB2000 Series Clocks with the fingerprint scanner installed. Clocks that do not use a fingerprint scanner run the standard clock program.

You must point each clock to use the appropriate clock program in the application; so for any clock that uses the fingerprint scanner, ensure the corresponding reader set up in the WFM application is using the biometric clock program.

To define which clock program readers use:

  1. Select Maintenance > Reader Setup > Readers.
  2. Click Edit next to the reader for which you want to set the clock program.

    The Readers Detail page is displayed.

  3. Specify the full path of the directory on the WBCS in which the WB2000 program file is stored in the Rdr Cmi Dlfile field.
  4. Click Save.
