Iris Scanner

Another biometric clocking option Wageloch offers is Iris Scanners. This hardware requires Wageloch Time Kiosk to be installed on your Windows-based computer. You can find more information over at Installing Wageloch.

As the Iris Scanner has biometric functionality, this requires us to mention Biometric Privacy and how data is stored.

Driver Installation

Upon receiving your Iris Scanner from Wageloch, please contact Helpdesk for assistance in setting up Wageloch Time Kiosk and Iris Scanner.

Time Kiosk Setup

After following the steps in Installing Wageloch open Wageloch Time Kiosk from your desktop.
If this is your first installation, you'll be prompted for your Clocking Method.

To change your clocking method to Iris Scanner from another type:

Click on the Settings cog in the top right and select General.

On the Clocking Method selection screen, pick Iris Scanner and select Medium/High Quality.

Iris Registration

Please make sure that your computer and Iris Scanner are in a well-lit area - not having enough light can cause issues with registration and clocking in/out later.
Click on the staff member’s name
Hold the Iris Scanner about 10cm away from the eye, looking in the circle on the surface of the scanner with your eye wide open

A preview will be displayed on the Time Kiosk screen; this will highlight yellow if trying to scan
If the scan has failed, the system will let you know to hold the scanner closer to the face or improve lighting
If successful, you should see the “?” disappear from next to the staff name
You can now clock in/out!
