MorphoAccess® SIGMA Extreme Series Terminal

Congratulations for choosing a MorphoAccess® SIGMA Extreme Series Automatic

Fingerprint Recognition Terminal.

MorphoAccess® SIGMA Extreme Series provides an innovative and effective solution

for access control applications using Fingerprint Verification or/and Identification.

Among a range of alternative biometric technologies, the use of finger imaging has

significant advantages: each finger constitutes an unalterable physical signature,

developed before birth and preserved until death. Unlike DNA, a finger image is

unique to each individual - even identical twins.

MorphoAccess® SIGMA Extreme Series integrates Safran Identity & Security image

processing and feature matching algorithms. This technology is based on lessons

learned during 25 years of experience in the field of biometric identification and the

creation of literally millions of individual fingerprint identification records.

We believe you will find the MorphoAccess® SIGMA Extreme Series fast, accurate,

easy to use and suitable for physical access control.

The MorphoAccess® SIGMA Extreme Series offers the following advantages:

 high quality optical sensor (IQS quality sensor) with false finger detection option,

 supports multiple input/output interfaces used in the physical access control

industry,

 Local Area Network interface for easy interaction with other host systems ; LAN

and WLAN possibilities (Wi-Fi™ as an option),

 intuitive man machine interface with touch panel and display, that is easy to use in

both setup and operational modes,

 sturdy wall mounting with easy holding of product during cabling or maintenance,

 ruggedezied design for harsh environment (IK09 and IP65).

To ensure the most effective use of your MorphoAccess® SIGMA Extreme Series

terminal, we recommend that you read this Installation Guide completely.
