SYNERGETIC ARRIVAL / DEPARTURE TERMINALS
Synergetic Arrival/Departure Terminals integrates with your school’s Synergetic Absences system allowing automated sign in and out by students entering the client premises late, leaving early or being absent for appointments (eg medical/dental). The end result is a streamlined process that can effectively use student identification cards to allow for better workflow, duty of care monitoring and evacuations/emergencies.
The terminal enables students to sign in and out themselves when arriving late and departing early from school. Students can either enter their ID number or scan their barcode via a Barcode reader (subject to additional cost and configuration). The terminals are configurable to an extent and can enable schools to brand the terminals, show particular sign in/out options on particular terminals, and enable students to select specific reasons for signing in/out. The terminal can also be configured to allow students to print out a receipt to take to their class teacher upon late sign in.
A terminal is essentially a windows based PC connected to the Synergetic database and the school's network, however it is devoted entirely for the purposes of acting as an arrival/ departure terminal. A touch screen is higly recommended as this will elimate the need for a keybouard and mouse pointer requirement. A barcode reader and docket reader can be connected to this PC. Note that all hardware* eg touch screen PC or keyboard based PC, barcode reader, and docket printers are to be supplied by the school at their own cost.
