TimeTec Patrol Latest Enhancement - Auto Scan NFC Checkpoint

Wednesday, May 30, 2018 TimeTec 0 Comments

Introduction:
TimeTec Patrol operation is made easier with the latest enhancement on the system. Now, guards can just scan the checkpoints without having to select the checkpoint assigned to him or her. The system will automatically detect which checkpoint is scanned whenever the security guards tap their mobile onto the NFC Tag. This latest enhancement works in “Follow Sequence” or “Random Scan”, simplifying the patrol process altogether.

Below are a few quick simple steps that show how the Auto Scan enhancement works for TimeTec Patrol:

Steps:
1) Using the system Admin account, first assign 2 checkpoints in Patrol Route by proceeding to Route > Patrol Route > Add > Assign 2 checkpoints to this Route.


2) Next, assign the Patrol Route into a Schedule by going to Schedule > Add  > Insert time for patrol > Click on User Icon and assign Route and Guard into this schedule > Save.


3) Lastly, in TimeTec Patrol mobile application, login to the Guard account and go to Routes & Checkpoints > Select Route Name > Click Start Tour > Tap your smartphone onto the NFC Tag, and it will automatically detect which checkpoint is being scanned.



Previously, after Start Tour has been initiated, security guards will need to select on the Checkpoint that they wish to start first and then only tap their smartphone onto the NFC Tag. But for this latest enhancement, security guards can now just tap their smartphone after starting the tour and the checkpoint will instantaneously be detected.
