zk = zk.ZK(ip='192.168.1.201', port=4370, timeout=5)
try:
    conn = zk.connect()

    # disable (lock) the device, make sure no activity when process run
    zk.disable_device()

    # Do another task here
    firmware_version = zk.get_firmware_version()
    print 'Firmware Version: : {}'.format(firmware_version)
    users = zk.get_users()
    for user in users:
        privilege = 'User'
        if user.privilege == const.USER_ADMIN:
