      Hello,

      Can you please help me to connect a fingerprint reader installed in our branch office which is at a remote location to Lenvica HRMS software?

      Thanks in advance.

      In order for you to connect to you Fingerprint Reader remotely, you do not need to do anything in the Fingerprint Reader itself; instead, you need to configure your network settings where your reader is.

      Here what you need to know before you can proceed:

      • You need to know the IP of the Fingerprint Reader.  Make sure you can ping it from any computer on the same LAN as the Fingerprint Reader.

      • You need to have static IP or you can configure Dynamic DNS.  Lots of routers support Dynamic DNS option.  If you do not know how to do this, you can find lots of information on Google.

      • You router must support Port Forwarding and you need to have access to your router.

      Now that you have this information, you need to log into your router and configure port forwarding.  You need to open any UDP port and redirect it to the local IP address of your Fingerprint Reader with port 4370.

      Now you should be able to access your device by using your static IP or host name and the port you’ve chosen.
