The ZKTeco IN01-A is a standalone fingerprint terminal designed for time attendance and basic access control applications. Featuring a 3-inch colour display, built-in 2,000 mAh backup battery, and TCP/IP connectivity, it delivers reliable workforce management for small to medium businesses.
The ZKTeco IN01-A is a fingerprint time attendance and access control terminal built for standalone or networked operation. It combines biometric clocking with single-door access control functionality, making it suitable for offices, warehouses, and commercial premises requiring both workforce management and basic door security.
Powered by ZKTeco’s latest coreboard and user-friendly firmware, the IN01-A delivers fingerprint verification in under 0.5 seconds. The 3-inch TFT colour screen provides an intuitive interface for employee self-service queries, clock-in/out operations, and on-device administration. A built-in 2,000 mAh backup battery ensures continued operation during power failures—critical for maintaining accurate attendance records.
Time Attendance Functionality
The IN01-A is purpose-built for workforce time tracking. Standard features include work codes, automatic status switching (e.g., Clock In, Clock Out, Break), SMS notifications, and self-service query for employees to check their own attendance records. Multiple verification modes support fingerprint, card, PIN, or combination authentication.
Built-in Battery Backup
A 2,000 mAh internal battery maintains full operation during mains power interruptions, preventing lost attendance records and ensuring access control remains functional.
Fast Fingerprint Matching
Verification completes in less than 0.5 seconds with capacity for 3,000 fingerprint templates. The device stores up to 100,000 transaction records locally.
Optional RFID Support
Add optional card modules for ID (125 kHz), MIFARE (13.56 MHz), or HID credentials, supporting up to 10,000 cards. Useful for visitors or employees who cannot enrol fingerprints.
Access Control Interface
Built-in terminals support direct connection to:
Wiegand Input & Output
Wiegand input accepts signals from external card readers. Wiegand output enables integration with third-party access control panels when using the IN01-A as a reader-controller.
Network & Software Integration
TCP/IP connectivity enables centralised management through ZKTeco BioTime software for multi-device time attendance deployments. The optional ADMS (Automatic Data Master Server) function allows cloud-based data synchronisation. Optional Wi-Fi and GPRS modules provide flexible connectivity where wired networking is impractical.
Advanced User Management
User IDs support alphanumeric characters (letters and numbers), accommodating existing employee ID schemes. Chip-level encryption protects firmware integrity.
BioTime
The IN01-A connects to ZKTeco BioTime software for centralised time attendance management, shift scheduling, leave management, and payroll integration across multiple terminals.
ADMS (Optional)
Automatic Data Master Server enables cloud-based device management and data synchronisation without dedicated server infrastructure.
Webserver (Optional)
Browser-based configuration and basic reporting without additional software installation.
Small to Medium Offices
Deploy as a standalone time clock with optional door control for main entry points. Built-in battery ensures attendance records are never lost during power interruptions.
Warehouses & Distribution Centres
Rugged enough for industrial environments with high employee throughput. Self-service query reduces administrative burden.
Retail & Hospitality
Work codes enable tracking of different job functions (e.g., front-of-house, kitchen, storeroom). Automatic status switching simplifies shift transitions.
Multi-Site Deployments
Connect multiple IN01-A units to BioTime software for consolidated attendance reporting and centralised user management across locations.
The IN01-A is designed for wall mounting with the included back plate. Dimensions are 221.7 × 159.5 × 47.8 mm (L × W × D), suitable for reception areas, staff entrances, or time clock stations.
