ZKTeco SpeedFace V5L Face Recognition Access and Attendance Terminal

Overview

The ZKTeco SpeedFace V5L is a face recognition terminal for door access and time attendance at an indoor entrance, such as an office or factory door. Staff walk up, the terminal recognises them in a second or less from 0.3 to 2 m away and releases the door or records the clock-in, with nothing to touch. Fingerprint, card and PIN are there as backups, and a 5-inch touchscreen handles enrolment and menus on the unit itself.

Is it right for you?

• It suits an indoor doorway away from direct sunlight and glass reflections, which upset face reading.
• It suits up to 10,000 staff, with face, fingerprint and card capacities of 10,000 each.
• Three versions: Standard, QR Code and Wi-Fi. Fingerprint is on the Standard and Wi-Fi versions; confirm the QR Code version with us before ordering.
• It needs a lock, exit button and door sensor to control a door; for attendance only, none of those are needed.
• For an outdoor or weather-exposed entrance, choose a weatherproof model such as the FaceDepot-8AL.

Key features

• Face recognition in 1 second or less at 0.3 to 2 m, with head rotation and tilt of up to 30 degrees either way, using the ZKFace V5.8 algorithm.
• Anti-spoofing against printed photos (laser, colour and black and white), video and 3D mask attacks.
• Fingerprint on the Z-ID sensor with the ZKFinger V10.0 algorithm, plus card and PIN on the 12-key virtual keypad.
• Holds 10,000 faces, 10,000 fingerprints and 10,000 cards, with 200,000 transaction records.
• 5-inch touchscreen and a supplement light for dim doorways; 1 GHz dual-core processor with 8 GB storage on Linux.
• Reads 125 kHz EM cards or 13.56 MHz S50/S70 IC cards, depending on the card module fitted.
• TCP/IP, Wiegand input and output and RS485, with Wi-Fi on the Wi-Fi version; drives a third-party electric lock through a NO/NC/COM relay, plus door sensor, exit button, alarm output and auxiliary input.
• Access levels, groups, holidays, anti-passback, record query, tamper switch alarm, ADMS (network data push to server), DST (daylight saving time) and 9-digit user IDs; 91.93 x 202.93 x 21.5 mm.

What else you need

A 12 V DC supply rated at least 3 A (12 V plus or minus 10%); a 12 V 3 A supply is needed if one is not supplied with your unit, and a higher rating if the lock shares it. To control a door: an electric lock such as an EML280 maglock or BL34-2 bolt, with a separate lock supply recommended, an exit button such as the EX86-S, EX28-L or K1-1D, and a door sensor for door status and alarms. A network point on the same segment as the software server. Only if you manage doors in ZKBio CVSecurity, you also need its licence to cover this door.

Installation

An access control installer should fit it. The job involves choosing an indoor spot clear of sunlight and glass, fixing the back plate at about 1.5 m and securing the terminal with the security screw, wiring 12 V DC to the power terminals, the lock to NO1 or NC1 and COM with the FR107 diode, and the door sensor, exit button and alarm as needed, then connecting Ethernet (default IP 192.168.1.201) and setting the address. On the unit, register a super administrator first, enrol users (face, fingerprint, card, password) and set time rules, then add it to the software.

Software and licences

ZKBio CVSecurity for door management, and easy TimePro or BioTime Cloud 2.0 for attendance and payroll export. ZKBio CVSecurity is activated with a serial licence from ZKTeco and its licensed door count must cover this terminal; if you already run it, check that a door licence is free. BioTime Cloud 2.0 connects through the terminal’s Cloud Server setting (ADMS).

Before you buy

• Indoor use only, 0 to 45 °C; avoid glass refraction, direct sunlight and exposure.
• Tell us which version you need (Standard, QR Code or Wi-Fi) and which card technology you use (125 kHz EM or 13.56 MHz S50/S70), because the card module is fitted at build time.
• A 12 V 3 A supply is needed if one is not supplied with your unit.
