VERIFY.NET FOR ADMINISTRATOR’S GUIDE
Getting Ready
To get started you will need the following:
• A CPS Email /Active Directory account. Please contact your tech coordinator or principal if you
do not know or have an active directory account so that one can be created for you.
• The appropriate security permissions in Verify.NET. This must be set-up by your principal or
tech coordinator through the CPS Online Data Acquisition system or ODA.
• A computer with the following hardware/software requirements:
o Pentium 4 1.8Ghz or faster
o 512MB RAM with 256MB free
o 1024x768 resolution
o Windows XP Service Pack 2 or above
o Internet Explorer 7.0 or above
o USB 2.0
o Adobe Reader 8.0 or above (for computers where IDs will be printed, it’s recommended
that Adobe Reader 9.0 or above is installed for better color matching)
o Computer speed and experience must be tolerable (for example if Internet browsing is
slow, Verify.NET will be just as slow)
o Computers where ID pictures will be taken must have the Sun Java Runtime version 6
Update 7 or above.
NOTE: In most cases, computers that were able to run the old Verify/LSIMSxp will be able to run
Verify.NET. However, because Verify.NET is built on new software and technology, there will be some
exceptions.
Getting Started
The best way to determine if you have access to Verify.NET and if your computer is up to par is to try
logging in. You must be inside the CPS network (at a school, central office, area office, or through a CPS
VPN connection). To begin follow the instructions below:
1. Double click on the IMPACT icon on your desktop. If you don not see one, open Internet Explorer
and browse to http://impact.cps.k12.il.us/application.asp.
2. The IMPACT Launchpad will be displayed. Scroll down until you see the Verify icon on the left hand
side of the screen.
3. Click on the Verify icon.
