Biometric attendance systems are increasingly becoming essential for modern businesses seeking streamlined operations and enhanced security. The integration of ZKTeco biometric devices with cloud applications can be achieved smoothly using the Cams Biometrics API, which supports a variety of devices including those from ZKTeco. Cams Biometric Machines If you own biometric machines from Cams (listed…
Connectivity Setup: Wired Connection (LAN): For a wired connection, securely insert one end of the LAN wire into the designated port on your biometric device. Connect the opposite end of the LAN wire to an available LAN port on your router or network switch. This establishes a direct and stable connection to your network infrastructure,…
Managing 50, 100, or 500 biometric devices has always been a dashboard marathon – login, scroll, filter, check logs, repeat. For partners handling multiple client accounts, it’s even worse. That changes today. With our new MCP (Model Context Protocol) integration, clients and partners can now monitor devices from anywhere using any AI assistant, without even…
Biometric machines are used to record employee attendance—but did you know that anyone can access the settings if the machine is not protected? This guide explains how to lock your biometric device menu so that only authorized admins can access it—while everyone else can still mark their attendance as usual. This feature is supported in almost all major brands, including: 🔐 What…
If your device’s time settings are resetting upon restart, the issue might be with the internal button cell battery, specifically a CR1220 – 3V. This battery is crucial as it maintains the internal clock and preserves the time settings even when the device is powered off or restarted. To address this issue, you should replace…
Introduction Managing biometric access for employees across multiple branches is a common challenge for enterprises. When employees are temporarily transferred to another location, most biometric systems require them to be re-enrolled, causing inefficiencies and administrative burden. Cams Biometrics addresses this issue with its two-way API communication, allowing employee data to be pushed to specific devices,…
