Using the Fingerprint Sensor This product has a fingerprint utility installed for the purpose of enrolling and recognizing fingerprints. By enrolling the ID and password onto the fingerprint authentication feature, it is no longer necessary to input the password from the keyboard.
Avoid swiping with your finger stiff or pressed too hard onto the sensor, and take care to ensure that the center of the fingerprint is touching the sensor before swiping. Either of these conditions may cause fingerprint reading to fail. Check the center of the fingerprint whorl before swiping and then ensure this is swiped along the center line of the sensor.
Enroll two or more fingers. Enroll additional fingers if a recognition failure often occurs when using already enrolled fingers. Check the condition of your finger - any conditions which have changed since enrollment, such as injury, rough skin, and extremely dry, wet, soiled, dirty, oily, soaked or swollen fingers, may lower the recognition success rate. Also if the fingerprint is worn down or the finger becomes thinner or fatter, the recognition success rate may be lowered.
In use, the fingerprint authentication system will use the same username and password as defined within the Windows operating system. If no Windows password has been configured, you must do this before starting the fingerprint registration process. This sensor has the memory space for at least twenty fingerprint patterns. You might be able to register more fingerprint patterns depending on the sensor memory usage. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.
