Everything you need to know about using a card reader
At this point, the reader should be all set up and ready to use. If not, then here you can find more information about how to do it.
The first thing we need to do is enable the reader. You can do it in the Settings -> Modules tab, where can you find "Card reader"
Then, after refreshing the page, you will see a round button in the lower right corner of the screen (not visible on small devices):
This means that listening on your device is currently disabled . To enable , click the button.
It turns green when clicked "
X: means that card listening is disabled on the device. In case you will be using WodGuru at home, you probably do not want to see the profiles of the club members you have just read. In this case, we do not want to have listening enabled.
Assigning a card to a user. When we read a card that has not been yet assigned to the gym member , the system will ask us to select the person to whom we want to assign it. Remember that the gym member must first be registered in the system, then we can assign him to the card.
Displaying the gym member's profile. When the card is already assigned to a specific gym member, after reading it, this window appears:
What can we see here:
gym member profile
membership validation (whether it is valid or not, and when it expires)
member's presence at different times
What can we do here:
Extend the pass
Edit the profile
Sell a product
Book in a member for classes (the nearest ones are highlighted)
Write the card back from the club member
If you have ideas on how to improve the operation of the cards, let us know at: help@wod.guru
When the code is read by the scanner, system marks the club member's attendance at the upcoming class.
Our default time settings are as follows:
for club members with classic passes (price greater than USD 0) - we mark attendance at classes within 90 minutes when the code is read. That is: the club member is registered for classes at 5:00 PM and 6:00 PM. He comes at 4:40 PM and clocks in. The system will mark his attendance at both of these classes.
for Multisports (passes for USD 0) - it will mark attendance at classes within 40 minutes when the club member punches the code
We can edit the settings regarding the time of marking attendance for you - write to us on the chat with such a request :)
