How does the FingerTec R2c connect?

It supports RS-485. In UAE installations we normally run it on wired Ethernet, with Wi-Fi kept as the fallback where cabling is impractical.

What software runs the FingerTec R2c?

Managed through the master terminal under Ingress / TCMS V3. We connect the attendance data through to payroll and produce a WPS-ready export, so the punches become a payable file rather than a report someone has to retype.

Do you install and support the FingerTec R2c across the UAE?

Yes. We supply, install, configure, train your team and support it across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain. Call +971 54 707 9900 for a fixed written quote.

Capacity	None of its own. All templates and logs live in the master terminal
Display	No LCD, LED indicators only
Communication	RS485 to the master terminal only
Access control	Provides the second (exit) read point so the master controls IN and OUT. The lock relay and alarm are handled by the master
Operating temp.	0 to 45 C, humidity 20-80%
Dimensions	64 x 42 x 135 mm
Power supply	Supplied and managed by the master terminal
Software	Managed through the master terminal under Ingress / TCMS V3
HOW MASTER AND SLAVE DIFFER	The master (R2, Q2i, Kadex) holds the user database and transaction log, has the display and menu for enrolment, drives the lock relay and alarm, and carries the network link to Ingress. The slave (R2c, i-Kadex) has no database, no log, no network port and no enrolment. It captures a credential on the other side of the door and passes it to the master, which decides, logs and opens.
