Biometric Wristband – User Manual – BWB01
1Overview
This document is a user manual for Assa Abloy’s Biometric Wristband. The Biometric Wristband is a
wearable device designed to hold a set of credentials allowing a user identified with a fingerprint
scan to open locks supporting Assa Abloy’s PoT protocol for BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) enabled
locks.
Credentials are temporary keys delegated by the lock owner to the user of the Wristband. The set of
credentials, or PoT Delegations, onboard the Wristband is automatically updated from the
supporting Assa Abloy Service Backend system.
Delegations can be used to open a lock when the Wristband and
lock are within range for Bluetooth communication. The
Wristband will connect with any lock that it has a valid
Delegation for. It will be up to the lock to validate the
Delegation and decide if it is ok to open or not.
The Wristband is “always on” and requires minimal interaction.
It includes two LED indicators, a buzzer and a fingerprint sensor.
LEDs and buzzer are used to provide feedback to the user about
successful/unsuccessful fingerprint scans, lock openings, low
battery and other actions and states.
The Wristband will periodically connect to the Service Backend
and check for changes in the set of Delegations. The
communication with the Service Backend is managed by
Wristband Connect, a required BLE Gateway App for Android available on Google Play. The
Wristband Connect app must be installed on an Android smartphone that is connected to the
Internet using 3G/4G or Wi-Fi.

3Setting up your Wristband
In order to be used to receive digital keys and open locks, Wristbands must
1) Be deployed for the user’s organization account
2) Be assigned by the account administrator to a particular user.
3.1 Deployment of new Wristbands
New Wristbands are delivered to customers in virgin mode and must first be registered for an
account by an authenticated account administrator. The administrator will use the Wristband
Connect smartphone app to claim ownership of new Wristbands which will enable them for
assignment.
The next step is to make them operational for users.
3.2 Assign Wristband to User
Authenticated account administrators using the Wristband Connect app can select a Wristband for a
user and initiate an assignment process. This process includes storing name and user id in the Service
Backend, and enrollment of two finger prints for biometric identification.
1) Account admin selects a Wristband in the Wristband Connect app.
2) The Wristband must be placed within Bluetooth range from the smartphone.
3) Provide name and user id for the user. The required user id is used to connect the requested
digital keys to a particular user.
4) The Account admin initiates the assignment process using the app.
5) The Wristband picks up that an assignment is pending and starts the finger print enrollment
process.
6) Completion of the enrollment requires 5 successful finger prints per finger. If a scan fails, try
again.
a. Waiting for next finger: 5 yellow blinks
b. Fingerprint accepted: 1 green blink, short vibration
c. Fingerprint failed: 3 red blink, long vibration
d. Full enrollment sequence completed: 10 green blinks
e. Enrollment sequence failed: 10 red blinks
7) With the full enrollment sequence completed, the Wristband is operational and ready to be
used with digital keys.
a. Note that the user must have the Wristband Connect app installed to enable sync
with Service Backend. See section below about installation of Wristband Connect.
3.3 Re-assign Wristband to new user
A Wristband that has already been assigned to a user can be re-assigned to another user.
1) Account admin selects a Wristband in the Wristband Connect app.
2) Place the Wristband within Bluetooth range from the smartphone.
3) Account admin clears currently assigned user from the Wristband from the app.
a. The Wristband is now ready for a new assignment, following the procedure
described above.
Note: This method must also be used if a user needs to enroll another finger for improved biometric
identification.

4Wristband Connect – The Companion Smartphone App
The Wristband’s communication with the Service Backend is
managed by Wristband Connect, a required Bluetooth Gateway App
for Android.
4.1 Installation
Wristband Connect is available on Google Play. It must be installed
on an Android smartphone that is connected to the Internet using
3G/4G or Wi-Fi.
4.2 Verification of Wristband to App Connectivity
1) Enable Bluetooth on the smartphone
2) pen the Wristband Connect app
3) Put the Wristband within Bluetooth range for the
smartphone (less than 5 m)
4) Check the LED status light on the Wristband
a. Slow blue blink indicates that the Wristband is
scanning for a Bluetooth connection
b. Fast blue blink indicates that the Wristband is
connecting to a device
c. A fixed blue light indicates that the Wristband has
connected to a device
5) Check the blue status area in the Wristband Connect home screen. If connected, it will show
the MAC address of the connected wristband (see Figure right)
4.3 Verification of App to Internet Connectivity
The blue status area in the Wristband Connect shows if Bluetooth and/or Internet is not available on
the smartphone. It includes a link to adjust the settings on the phone.
5Battery Life and Charging
The Wristband includes a Li-ion battery that must be charged using the supplied battery charger.
The charging clip attaches to the pins located on the backside of the device.
Figure 2: The Wristband Connect app
establishes a Bluetooth hotspot for the
Wristband’s communication with the
ervice Backend.

Figure 3: Wristband with pins for charging (left) and with charging clip attached (right)
The battery will support the Wristband up to 168 hours (one week) in standby mode, and more than
30 lock openings during a 12-hour period.
The Wristband must be charged using the supplied
charger. The charging time is typically less than 60
minutes. Note that the battery should not be charged in
higher temperature than 60 degrees C.
A fully charged Wristband is indicated by a green LED light.
When charging, the Wristband’s LED shows a blinking
turquoise light.
6Care
6.1 Replacing a wristband
The wristband has two separate straps (top and bottom) that you can swap with accessory bands
sold separately.
1. Turn over your Wristband and find the strap screws—there’s one on each end where the
strap meets the frame.
2. Use a screw driver to remove each strap

6.2 Updating your Wristband
Firmware upgrades are pushed automatically when available from the Service Backend and the
Wristband is connected via the BLE Gateway app. The upgrade will eventually take place during
charging when download of a new image has been fully completed, no user interaction is required.
7Troubleshooting
7.1 LED indicators are off
1) Charge the Wristband for 60 minutes.
7.2 Red blin ing LED
A red blinking LED indicates that the Wristband is not configured for a particular user and cannot be
used to retrieve digital keys from the Service Backend.
1) See section above on “Assignment to User” on how to set up the device.
7.3 Fingerprint not recognized
When a fingerprint cannot be verified, the Wristband LED shows three fast red indications. A
successfully identified finger is confirmed by three fast green indications.
1) Ensure that the finger is presented within the fingerprint sensor’s frame
2) Try to present the finger in a different angle.
3) Ensure that your finger is clean and dry
4) Try the second enrolled finger.
5) If the Wristband continues to not recognize the fingers, it needs to be reassigned by the
Wristband administrator.
7.4 Cannot open loc
1) Ensure that the Wristband and Lock are within acceptable range, i.e. < 5 meters.
a. A Wristband that is scanning for lock will show a blue blinking LED.
b. A connected Wristbands shows a green LED
2) Ensure that the Wristband has been recently synced using the Wristband Connect app.
7.5 Wristband is not charging
When charging, the Wristband LED shows a turquoise indicator.
1) Ensure that the charging clip is correctly positioned and fixed over the Wristband.
