In some models you can use the TIME BASED RESET method to Reset the Admin Password for ZKTECO Fingerprint Device.

  • 1. Once you are in the Main Screen, Check the Time on the Screen.
  • 2. Take a Calculator and deduct the time by "9999"
    • i.e. If the time on the screen is 13:50
    • then 9999-1350=8649
    • Multiply the answer by same
    • then 8649 X 8649 = 74805201
    • The super password is 74805201
  • 3. Now on the fingerprint device Press Menu
  • 4. Enter "8888"
  • 5. Press OK
  • 6. Enter the Super Password and click ok.
  • 7. Now you will be able to Enter the Menu and Clear the Admin Password.

(Note: From my testing it seems to work only on some models of the finger print device. )
