Before enrolling and verifying fingerprints, please read the following helpful hints for
Fingerprint Enrollment and Verification:
Tips on Enrolling Fingerprints
 The center of the vortex (swirl) of the fingerprint pattern is the key data point. It
should be placed in the center of the sensor’s glass window in a consistent way.
The fingerprint should be well defined with the peaks and valleys of the vortex
ridge pattern clearly visible.
 Light pressure when placing the finger or thumb on the scanner gives the best
image. The finger should be held flat and must not move during scanning.
 Adjust Fingerprint Sensitivity settings per Section 5.3
 Moist fingers and thumbs give better images than dry ones. On cold, dry days it
may be helpful to moisten the finger by breathing on it or applying a small
amount of lotion.
 Dry, dirty fingerprints or prints with cracks or scars are not recommended.
 Wait until the fingerprint scanner activates to place the finger on the scanning
window. This is true for both fingerprint enrollment and verification.
 Shade the sensor when trying to enroll or verify fingerprints in direct sunlight.
This will prevent sunlight from reflecting off the sensor mirror.
