This is a ruby client that communicates with Hanvon Time & Attendance devices over the network.

Hanvon provides an SDK consisting only of a file named HwDevComm.dll. There is no official Linux support. Hence, I decided to reverse engineer the protocol. When used without a commukey / password, you can easily communicate with the device via a TCP socket and send the commands in plain text. However, when a key is used, messages sent and received are encrypted.

This is not official code from Hanvon. This is tested on the F710, but should work for the other models.
