6.1 Initial Power-Up and Admin Setup
Upon first power-up, the system will typically be in an uninitialized state. Follow the manufacturer's specific instructions (usually involving a default admin password or a master card) to enter programming mode and set up the initial administrator.
6.2 Ndebanye aha onye ọrụ
To register new users, the system must be in programming mode (accessed by the administrator).
- Ndebanye aha mkpịsị aka: Place the user's finger on the scanner multiple times as prompted until the fingerprint is successfully enrolled.
- Ndebanye aha kaadị: Present the RFID card to the reader when prompted.
- Password Registration: Enter the desired numerical password using the keypad and confirm.
6.3 Ịnweta Sistemu
Once users are registered, they can gain access using their assigned method:
- Mkpisiaka: Place a registered finger on the scanner.
- Kaadị: Present a registered RFID card to the reader.
- Okwuntughe: Enter the registered password using the keypad, followed by the '#' key (or as specified by system configuration).
A successful access attempt will typically be indicated by a green LED and an audible signal, followed by the unlocking of the connected door.
