TCMSv3 with MySQL and Middleware Installation Guide (Supports Face ID5, Face ID6 and Kadex+)

Introduction 


We are excited to introduce the new version of TCMSv3 v4.0.0.1, now equipped with a MySQL database and middleware that enables connectivity with Face ID5, Face ID6, and Kadex+. 

 

As of February 2025, only the Beta version has been released, with the official release coming soon. For this Beta release, we aim to provide new users the opportunity to explore and experience the system, moving away from the Ingress software with AWDMS middleware. 

 

Please note that existing users who are currently using Ingress with AWDMS should wait for the official release if they wish to switch to the TCMSv3 software.
