SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Warning
Never open the units. You may risk
an electrical shock or to damage sen-
sitive parts.
In case of any defect, please power
off the system and consult your local
dealer or the manufacturer.
This system is designed for use with
9 - 27 V low power supplies only.
While installation and usage don’t
handle with violence. In most cases
malfunctions have a reason.
Please install the system according
to usual precautions. Be aware of
unprotected electrical power wires.
Please clean the system with soft
cloth. Don’t use oily, acid or soapy
liquids.
Please use the sensor with your fin-
gers only. Sharp objects or extreme
force may damage it.
In case the sensor is very wet, please
use a dry soft cloth to clean it. Water
cannot damage the sensor, but it can
decrease the reading capability.
Safety advise
Even if the system locks or unlocks
your house or car, you will be held
responsible for proper locking.
Leaving your house or car, please
make sure that it is properly locked.
Before selecting and installing an
electromechanical locking system,
please check your insurance police,
if and which means are covered.
Please be aware that children‘s fin-
gerprints may vary during their ado-
lescence. Normally you should re-
enrol every six months.
Just to be on the safe side, it is rec-
ommended to enrol at least two fin-
gers per person.

BASICS
Technology
„Biometrics“ refers to all kind of methods for
uniquely recognition of humans based on
one or more specific physical or behavioural
characteristics. The more unique those char-
acteristics are, the more they are applicable
for definite identification.
The oldest of all biometric methods is the
finger print identification, the so-called
dactyloscopy (greek. dactylos „finger” and
scopein „view”).
1896 in Argentina the dactyloscopy was intro-
duced country wide for criminal investigations.
Nowadays these methods become more and
more accepted as access control method.
A biometric system uses three components,
the sensor, the trait extraction (enrolment)
and the comparison.
The sensor sends as result a fingerprint tem-
plate. This template is an extract that is ad-
justed for optimal results. After the enrolment
the template is digitally encrypted and stored.
It is not possible to re-construct a complete
image from the template.
While using the biometric system, the stored
template will be compared to the current one.
If the matching rate is within certain toleranc-
es, the template will be accepted as valid.
The most significant quality and reliability traits
of a biometric system are its failure rates: The
False Acceptance Rate (FAR) and the False
Rejection Rate (FRR).
More critical for consumer applications is the
FAR value. It is more dangerous when an un-
authorized person gets access than the rejec-
tion of authorized persons.
Besides a quick algorithm the sensor is the
most important part for the reliabilty, speed
and security of the biometric system.
The Easy Home / Easy Mobile is equipped
with a high performance sensor using the
latest available technology. It is a so-called
active capacitive hybrid sensor. This sensor
doesn’t take a “picture” of the finger surface, it
measures the conductivity of the saline layer
below the dry epidermis. Since the young skin
is “build” there, the skin ridge pattern is exact
the same than on the surface. Therefore this
sensor type is more applicable for children
with soft and people with dry and horny skin,
can also handle small injuries like scratches
or cuts.
Furthermore the sensor can recognize replica
fingers
In comparison to swipe sensors, at which the
finger must be drawn with the same speed
and accuracy at any time over the sensor,
the handling of a flatbed sensor is as easy as
pushing a simple button.
Because of all the above mentioned reasons,
the Easy Home / Easy Mobile system is suit-
able for all day usage for families and small
offices and contributes a high level conven-
ience.

BASICS
Applications
Easy Home
Easy Home was developed for the use in the
automotive industry. The approval regulations
are much stronger than for domestic applica-
tions, particularly with regard to more inten-
sive environmental impacts, such as sunlight,
moisture or temperature fluctuations.
Since our products meet those requirements,
they are most suitable for domestic usage.
To use the Easy Home you need to install an
electromechanical door locking system. The
most popular method is an electric strike, the
most elaborate seems to be an integrated
motorized door lock. Both methods differ not
only in security level, but also in cost and in-
stallation effort.
Every average DIY might install an electric
strike. If necessary, consult an expert.
Various kinds of locking systems can be con-
nected to the Easy Home. In case that large
electrical loads must be switched, heavy duty
relays can be integrated in-between. For ex-
ample sliding doors, garage doors, shutters
etc.
Another application field is the controlling of
alarm systems with the Easy Home.
Easy Mobile
As explained above, the Easy Mobile meets
the requirements of mobile applications. The
system is well protected against environmen-
tal influences and it is designed to consume
only a minimum of battery ressources in
stand-by mode.
But, of course, the system is only applicable if
an electro-mechanical door locking system is
installed, too. In best case your car is already
equipped with a central door locking system.
Otherwise, please contact your local dealer to
check the possibilities for backfitting.
There are at least two ways to connect the
Easy Mobile:
By wire
Both relay contacts can handle loads up to
130 mA to switch circuits directly. In all other
cases you may need to interpose heavy duty
relays. In both cases you should try to find the
connecting points to your central locking.
By remote control
If you own a remote controlled locking, the
easiest way is to get a free remote sender.
With a little experience you can connect the
relay outputs of the Easy Mobile to the push
buttons of the sender module.
Both solutions require good knowledge about
your car’s locking system. If necessary, please
consult your dealer or a specialist.

The default PIN is „1234”. It is highly
recommended to change the PIN to a per-
sonal value.
The PIN might consist of 4 up to 12 digits. The
longer the PIN is, the more secure it is. Opti-
mal protection is achieved with a minimum of
5 digits. Usually PINs should not show any
relation to your personality, such as birthday,
age, etc.
The main unit of the BIOLOCK system will be
installed inside. The risk of spying out your
PIN by a third party might be considered as
relatively low.
However, if you feel that you have been
observed while entering your PIN, please
change immediately.
For professional applications periodical
changing of the PIN is recommended.

Fingerprints will be stored as so-called “Tem-
plates” in the memory of the control unit. It is
not possible to re-construct complete finger-
print images from the templates, but to com-
pare two templates with each other.
The memory is organized like a relational da-
tabase, i.e. every fingerprint will be assigned
to a unique storage index (ID) number. Every
new fingerprint will be allocated to the next
available ID. The ID can also be assigned
manually during the enrolment.
It is recommended to keep a separate list of
the assigned ID numbers and reference it to
user names. This will enable you to delete or
overwrite individual templates very easily.
If you want to overwrite a used memory ID,
you must confirm the hint in the display by
pressing .

Hints
For security reasons there is an inte-
grated time-out after 3 seconds.
For security reasons you will have
only three attempts for fingerprint
recognition. After that you have to
close and open the cover again.
If the sensor position is inconvenient
for using your forefinger, we recom-
mend to use your thumb.
Please find your way to place the fin-
ger with the biggest possible contact
area. Try to use the swilley for orien-
tation.

A single fingerprint template can be deleted
by its storage number, its ID.
Vice versa you cannot delete a fingerprint
without its ID. If you want to use the system
with a high volatile user group, it is recom-
mended to keep a separate list with user to ID
reference. Otherwise the database must be
erased completely and the remaining persons
must be registered again.
Alternatively, you might assign the storage
IDs manually to differentiate user groups, i.e.
0-19 for family, 20-39 for guests, etc. This will
enable you to distinguish between permanent
persons and guests.

How to use the alarm function.
The control unit provides a sensor input that
operates as normally closed (NC) door switch.
This means, the quiescent current will be
interrupted in case of opening the door. For
example you can connect a dry reed con-
tact (NC). The system can react with various
activities.
The alarm function is deactivated by default
and can be activated as explained in the right
side.
1 Enables the alarm function
2 Disables the alarm function
After activating the alarm function, you may
select one of the three modes:
1 Upon alarm event, output 1 will be com-
mutated.
2 Upon alarm event, output 2 will be com-
mutated.
3 Upon alarm event, the controller will indi-
cate optically and acoustically only, with-
out changing the outputs.
The alarm can be disarmed by a valid PIN
number or positive fingerprint matching only.
Best usage for optical alarm signal. When you
return to your home or car, you can see from
the distance that something happened.
Please consider local regulations for acoustic
alarms. In most cases the maximum duration
is limited to 1 minute.

The controller is equipped with a sensor input
that is prepared for a NC (normally closed)
door contact, i.e. a dry reed contact.
The system can detect that the door is open,
and react accordingly.
Please check the installation guide for proper
installation.
The door contact is disabled by default. You
may enable as explained herein.
1 Enables the door contact
2 Disables the door contact
When enabled and the door is open, the out-
puts will remain active until the door will be
closed again. The relay time will be ignored.
Example: If you use a magnetic door lock, the
magnet is inactive until the door is closed.
This will save power and extend lifetime of
the coil inside the lock.

How to set the system ID.
Due to security reasons reader and control-
ler must be paired. In case of exchanging the
reader, the system will not work.
The units are paired by factory settings. Un-
der normal conditions it is not necessary to
change the ID. Anyhow, if you like to change
the system ID, you may select a system ID
from 1 to 15.
You need to change the ID via DIP switch on
the back side of the reader and the settings in
the system menu.
An overview of the valid DIP switch settings
and its meaning you may find in the installa-
tion guide.
