Operation Manual
Figure 2 –Rear view of the back cover of the reader and the purpose of the main elements
The reader, powered and connected to the BioSmart UniPass controller, enters into palm/card
standby mode, according to the set operating mode.
During operation, the controller cyclically polls the status of connected readers. When an object is
brought to the palm vein biometric scanner, this object parameters are analyzed. If the attached object is
recognized as the palm of a living person, and biometric data of sufficient quality may be read from the palm,
then the biometric data is scanned in the infrared range by PV-WM. The read biometric data is transferred
to the BioSmart UniPass controller. Next, the obtained biometric data is compared with the palm vein
patterns stored in the database. If a template was found in the database, deviations from which fall within
the specified limit, the access settings prescribe to grant access to the appropriate employee. BioSmart
UniPass performs the actions specified in the working model for this situation and sends a message about
successful identification to the reader BioSmart PV-WM. If the template is not found in the database or the
access settings instruct to deny access, then the controller performs other actions prescribed by the working
model. For example, controller sends a message about failed identification to the reader. A failed
authentication message is being sent. Then there is a return to cyclic polling of the reader’s state.
If the object attached to the reader is recognized as an RFID-tag (card), then the BioSmart PV-WM
reads the RFID-tag code and transmits it to the controller. Upon the code receipt, the controller compares it
with the codes stored in the database. If a match is found and the access settings instruct the corresponding
employee to be allowed access, then the controller performs the actions specified in the working model for
this situation. For example, the controller activates the relay and controls the reader indication. If no match
