LOGIN AND BADGE AUTHENTICATION

Due to the variety of badge types and badge readers, CribMaster will need to test a sample badge from the customer in order to mount the proper badge reader.

Embedded badge codes are more complex than a simple string of characters. Codes are hexi-decimal and often segmented into sections.

BEST PRACTICES

While on an installation, don’t change SHOWLOGINLIST to True if you don’t have a working badge with ADMIN rights.

Make Sure you set the WEB SERVICE URL. This allows automatic downloads of new ATR versions. Usually this is the same URL as the Data-Source.
