  • Q:

    What phenomena might occur if lack of power supply?

    A:

    1) ICR switches frequently.

    2) The camera’s image looks dark.

    3) Some ripples appear in the image.

    4) The camera might reboot frequently.        

  • Q:

    Why is the camera’s image unclear?

    A:

    1) Unmatched lens mount. There are two types of lens mount for box cameras,respectively are CS mount and C mount, the lens and camera must be matched with the same type.

    2) Use Focus in / focus out to control the Clarity.

    3) Check whether the lens or housing gets dirty.

    4) In case of strong light condition, please select electronic iris as the lens type.        

  • Q:

    What is SMART Face Detection?

    A:

    Face Detection: Face Detection function is fulfilled by the camera. The face features such as eyes and mouth would be recognized. The detection highly demands the size of face shown in the image and the angle to the lens. We recommend users have the camera installed close to the desired detection region and make sure people face the camera directly. Notice: Face Detection is different from Face Recognition. In Face Detection, the detection of faces in the whole image would trigger the alarm and notify surveillance center. The regions of detected faces would not be captured. The Face Recognition Camera is able to capture face images and upload to server for face comparison.

  • Q:

    The registration speed of the SLK20R connected to the ZKAccess 3.5 software is normal, but the registration is slow when ZKBiosecurity3.0 and ZKTime web2.0 are connected.

    A:

    Please update the latest ISSonline SDK test. SLKID 1.4 or less and 1.4 or more are different. Old SDK Under 1.4 Firmware USB2.0 fetched original map at SDK layer probe speed acceptable Before 1.4~2.0, the firmware used USB1.1. If you continue to transfer the original image, the speed is very slow. After the SDK upgrade, the correction map is read. The data is much smaller than the original image and is not so slow.        

  • Q:

  • Q:

    When integrating the SLK20R into an Android application, customers cannot find liblibzkfp.so for the ZKFPService class in the JAVA SDK.

    A:

    Here comes the instructions in our development documentation. 2. Development Environment Setup 2.1 Importing libzkfinger10.so libzkfinger10.so is a fingerprint algorithm library, which supports the fingerprint template extraction, comparison, storage, and deletion functions. Enter the libs/armeabi and libs/mips directories and check whether libzkfinger10.so exists. If yes, the interfaces of the ZKFinger SDK can be normally used. If no, contact ZKTeco technical engineers.


  • Q:

    Demo error: 'System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException' occurred in System.Windows.Forms.dll Additional Information: Unregistered class (HRESULT exception: 0x80040154 (REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG))

    A:

    Unregistered class, confirming the client's operating system and the number of used SDK bits, suggesting that the client's debugging platform be changed from x64 to x86        

  • Q:

    The ZKFingerModuleSDK command MD_READ_USER can only obtain the number of templates when acquiring user data from the SLK20M. Cannot obtain the template number?

    A:

    There is a field in the structure of user information for how many fingerprints the user has stored.If a fingerprint is deleted, the word value of the field is reduced.In addition, the index inside the module is self-maintaining. If you want to or fingerprint the index number, you can only read and download all fingerprint templates to query.


  • Q:

    The ZKFingerModuleSDK command MD_ENROLL_TMP issued a fingerprint to SLK20M failed.

    A:

    When the command issued a fingerprint, base64 format encoded fingerprint needs to be decoded        

  • Q:

    Does ZKFingerSDK provide fingerprint template conversion interface?

    A:

    ZKFingerSDK is not provided, there is another conversion library that can provide conversion interface.However, only ZK10.0 fingerprint templates are currently supported for conversion to ISO/ANSI templates. ISO conversion to ZK fingerprints is not supported.        

  • Q:

    How to get a 300*400 fingerprint image?

    A:

    Need to use PIV standard SLK20R        

  • Q:

    How big USER ID does the SLK20M support?

    A:

    Our biometric identification SDK does not involve user IDs.Since a person has 10 fingerprints, we only have a finger index, which is a 32-bit unsigned integer, a pure number that does not exceed 9 in length. Our SDK only cares about the information he collects, then compares it and does not care about logical data.        

  • Q:

    Is it possible to convert our 10.0 fingerprint template into a picture (jpg, png, etc)?

    A:

    Fingerprint template can't convert pictures. The binarization process of extracting fingerprint feature points from a picture and saving it as a fingerprint template is irreversible.We can get the original fingerprint image from the fingerprint reader through the SDK interface ZKFPM_Acquire Fingerprint Image. It does not support converting from a fingerprint template to a picture.        

  • Q:

    Fingerprint comparison always fails

    A:

    1. Confirm whether the fingerprint template of the customer is correct
    2. Confirm that the customer's own development process has judgments on algorithm library initialization and fingerprint reader connection. The algorithm library initialization may fail but the client still invokes the comparison interface.        

  • Q:

    Connected fingerprint reader and not, the result is not the same

    A:

    Due to the limitation of the algorithm, a fingerprint reader must be connected in order to initialize the algorithm library and the comparison interface can be invoked.        

  • Q:

    When installing the ZKBiolock on the win10 pro operating system, the software prompt database is incompatible with the operating system.

    A:
