The EVO 3.5 Pure is our most compact and cost-efficient terminal – ideal for projects that require a small display and straightforward interaction. It is particularly suitable for budget-sensitive environments, installations with limited space, or where individual design is not a priority.
Despite its price advantage, it offers full functionality for time and job tracking.

The EVO 5.0 Pure shares its housing and base features with the EVO 3.5 Pure, but offers enhanced usability through a larger 5.0” display.
This allows for a more comfortable user experience, especially where extended keypad layouts or visual feedback are required.
The device can be equipped with either a capacitive or resistive touch interface, making it adaptable to various environments and usage scenarios.
It is available in both anthracite (RAL 7016) and signal white (RAL 9003).

The EVO 5.0 Flex combines the compact size of the EVO Pure series with the premium build quality of the Flex line. It features a solid aluminium frame with a durable real-glass front, offering an elevated look and feel, as well as IP65 front protection.

For companies seeking a visually branded setup, this terminal supports custom printing on the housing – beyond just logo display on screen.

The configured identities (RFID, PIN, Fingerprint) can be assigned to a PBX user via the Application buttons.

==Version==




Product versions used for interop testing:

* Datafox EVO Version XYZ

* innovaphone PBX V15r1
* innovaphone Buttons App 15r1
* innovaphone Working App 15r1

==Configuration==
This only applies to the connection to Innovaphone, not the complete configuration of a Datafox terminal.

The configuration of terminals is carried out via Datafox Studio. This is available from https://www.datafox.de/unternehmen/downloads/software

=== Settings for Buttons App ===
* The innovaphone buttons app has a reachable webpath for datafox terminals
* The app receives all communication from the terminal via http-get
** The Buttons app has opened a web path ‘datafox’ below the app path for this purpose.
*** For example => <nowiki>http://ap.domain.de/domain.de/buttons/</nowiki>'''datafox'''
**** ap.domain.de => FQDN of the AppPlattform
**** /domain.de/buttons/ => the webpath for the buttons app
**** datafox => the subpath as destination for GET-Variables
* The needed settings for the terminal can be edited via Datafox Studio.

=== Settings in Datafox Studio ===

* You have to setup the Configuration for Devicecommunication (in view on the example above)
** com.http = 1
** com.http_mode[0].host = '''''ap.domain.de'''''
** com.http_mode[0].port = 80
** com.http_mode[0].send = GET '''''/domain.de/buttons/datafox'''''?
* There are still some fieldnames, you have to choose in the input chain of your setup. All other configuration depends on your setup.
** Create a Dataset Table "working".
*** df_name
*** df_serial
*** action
*** mac
*** Date or Datum
*** maybe other fields you need
** Assign the Table to your controlpanel
*** for the operating menu you have to assingn "working" as dataset table
*** for your Chip/RFID assign "mac" as datafield
*** for come or leave assign constant values
**** come => assign 1 to field action
**** leave => assign 2 to field action

===== Example Configuration Files =====
[[File:Datafox - Example.zip|left|thumb|datafox_-_example.zip/]]

=== Assign IDs to Users ===

* After you have done the steps before, the Datafax Terminal will send your data to the Buttons in OnlineMode
* You can assign actions to your ID (RFID Token)
** working-start
** working-stop
** ...also all other actions, which can be triggered via buttons App are available.
