How to import & export User & Log between BioStar 2 and Suprema reader using USB memory

In general, a project site where it is hard to connect the network or the reader is operated standalone, the information on Users and Logs can be imported or exported using USB memory for the purpose of T&A. For example, you can enroll new user through BioStar 2 server in the head office. Then, after exporting the user data to USB memory, the user information stored in USB memory can be imported to the reader which is located in real-site away from the main office. Like this scenario, the logs are also exported from the device operated standalone and then imported to BioStar 2 server in order to apply to T&A report for the employee.
