Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can the F18 biometric fingerprint access control system work as a standalone unit without a separate controller?

A: Yes! The Asia-Teco F18 is designed for fully standalone operation, meaning it can manage door access entirely on its own without needing an additional access control panel. It can also be integrated with any third-party panel that supports standard Wiegand signal if you prefer a networked or multi-door setup.

Q: What types of RFID cards are compatible with the F18 door access system?

A: The F18 optionally supports ID cards, Mifare smart cards, and HID cards — with a total card capacity of up to 5,000 entries. This makes it easy to deploy a hybrid fingerprint + card access solution for your facility.

Q: How does the F18 connect to a network or computer for management?

A: The F18 supports multiple connectivity options including TCP/IP (Ethernet), RS232, RS485, and USB-host. This versatility means you can manage it over your local network via TCP/IP, use serial communication via RS232/485, or transfer data directly via USB — giving you maximum flexibility for different installation environments.

Q: What happens to door security if there is a power outage?

A: The F18 operates in Fail Secure mode. This means that in the event of a power failure, the door remains locked, ensuring your secured areas stay protected at all times.
