Questions

Common questions

What is the ZKTeco F18 best suited to?

Internal doors — server rooms, stores, cash rooms and back-of-house areas. Where it is the wrong choice: optical sensor, so not the right choice for dusty, wet or gloved hands. No Wi-Fi — the door needs a network or RS-485 cable.

How does the ZKTeco F18 connect?

It supports TCP/IP, RS-232/485, USB host, Wiegand in/out. In UAE installations we normally run terminals on wired Ethernet, keeping wireless as the fallback where cabling is impractical.

What software runs the ZKTeco F18?

It works with ZKTeco's access control software over TCP/IP; we confirm the attendance software pairing on the quotation. We connect the attendance data through to payroll and produce a WPS-ready export, so punches become a payable file rather than a report someone has to retype.

Do you install and support the ZKTeco F18 across the UAE?

Yes. We supply, install, configure, train your team and support it across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain. Call +971 56 614 2543 or message us on WhatsApp for a fixed written quote.
