Put the scanner on the turnstile and attendance stops being a separate chore. An employee scans, the tri-bar releases, and the record is written at the same instant — there is no version of getting to your desk that skips it.
Whether the relay is driven at all is a setting. Decide it before the install, not after.
A valid scan physically releases the tri-bar. Nobody reaches the floor without a badge that checks out, so the attendance record is as complete as the building is secure.
The relay is never driven — the device simply records the scan. For an open office where a turnstile would feel wrong, or where the landlord won't allow one.
Available on the BMO TF, switched on only if you want them.
A blink is required, so a photograph held up to the camera doesn't open the barrier for anyone.
An optional temperature reading against a warning threshold, with the choice of logging it or acting on it.
On-screen badges can be set to stay valid for a limited number of seconds rather than indefinitely.
The turnstile works the same way on the way out, which is what makes the day's hours real rather than estimated. Time in, time out, and the hours between them all come from the same two scans.
