PORTABLE TEMPLATE MANUAL / VER. 1.0.0 5
INTRODUCTION TO PORTABLE TEMPLATES
EyeLock’s Portable Template solution continues the evolution of the industry leading nano NXT. Portable Template
allows customers to save iris templates on EV1, EV2 smart cards or on BLE enabled mobile devices. Templates are trans-
ferred to the nano NXT® via Smart Card or Bluetooth LE, depending on the customer’s preference.
EV1 / EV2 SMART CARDS
Smart Card – A single user template can be written to a 4k (or larger) ISO/IEC 14443-4 Type A DESFire EV1 or EV2
card at the time of enrollment. This contactless technology utilizes the 13.56MHz transmission standard. During
authentication, the user presents their card to the reader and the template is transferred to the NXT for authentication.
The user then presents their eyes to the nano NXT to be authenticated. The template is not permanently stored on the
nano NXT as it is removed from memory shortly after the authentication is complete.
MOBILE
Mobile Device – A single user template can be written to a Bluetooth LE compatible mobile device (iOS: 8.0 and
Android: 5.0 (Lollipop)) at the time of enrollment. This low power variant of the Bluetooth standard allows a user
to transfer their template to the nano NXT for authentication at a distance of up to approximately 10 feet. The user
then presents their eyes to the nano NXT for authentication. The template is not permanently stored on the nano NXT;
it is automatically and permanently removed from memory shortly after the authentication is complete. Readers can be
configured to automatically transfer the template when in range or can be configured to prompt the user for transfer via
Tap-to-send or PIN.
All data stored on the Smart Card or Mobile Device is encrypted using industry standard AES-256 encryption.
Additionally, templates can be configured to be activated or deactivated based on specific date ranges, providing
customers with an unprecedented level of security. Data can optionally be stored on the customers’ database for
back-up and recovery.

CONFIGURATION
NANO NXT
Access the web config on the nano NXT. See p.19-22 of the nano NXT instruction manual (version 1.0.9 ) for detailed
instructions (nano NXT manual can be downloaded from https://www.eyelock.com/index.php/login). Once logged into
webconfig, navigate to the Database Tab and check Portable Templates.

PORTABLE TEMPLATE MANUAL / VER. 1.0.0 11
OPTIONS
Mobile Mode: The drop-down menu allows the user to select the activity mode for how the EyeLock mobile device ap-
plication works with the nano NXT and the wall reader. When using a mobile device (as opposed to an EV1 or EV2 card),
one of three modes must be selected:
• Walk-Up: The user’s template is automatically sent to the wall reader when the mobile device is in range.
Background scanning must be enabled in the mobile application.
• Tap-to-Send: The user must tap a button in the mobile application to send the template to the wall reader.
• Pin-to-Send: The user must enter a pin on the mobile application to send the template to the wall reader.
Iris Wait Time: This configuration determines how long the nano NXT will temporarily save the iris template while waiting
for the user to present their eyes. Default is set to 10 seconds and can be changed to any value between 10 seconds and
600 seconds (10 minutes).
Key Management Settings: Templates are encrypted with a Certificate through RSA and AES encryption to maximize the
security of the template. Select the certificate (“key”) that the nano NXT will use to decrypt the template.
• Use Default Key: Use the same certificate that is used for standard nano NXT communication.
• Use Custom Key: Use a certificate provided by EyEnroll or a third party certificate. Third party certificate must
be 1024 bit encryption. A custom certificate should be used to maximize security as the default certificate is
available to all Eyelock customers. EyEnroll can generate the required certificate.
Click Save to commit changes to Portable Template options.
CHANGES TO OPERATION WHEN USING PORTABLE TEMPLATES
NOTE: When engaging the portable template mode, the nano NXT’s local database is automatically cleared. The nano
NXT will no longer respond to database push requests from EyEnroll.

EYENROLL CONFIGURATION
To configure portable templates, open the EyEnroll application and access the settings page. From the Database Type
dropdown menu, select one of the Portable Template options:
• Portable Template (Card): Templates will be enrolled to a card.
• Portable Template (Mobile): Templates will be enrolled to the mobile device application.
Selecting either option changes the settings screen shown below.

PORTABLE TEMPLATE MANUAL / VER. 1.0.0 13
CREATING A CUSTOM CERTIFICATE FOR PORTABLE TEMPLATES
To create a certificate for portable templates, click the Create New Certificate button. This will prompt the user to save
the certificate to the computer, which will be uploaded to the nano NXT(s) via Web Config. Once created, EyEnroll
automatically selects the new certificate as the Portable Template certificate. The certificates generated through the
Create New Certificate option are 1024 bit.
USING A THIRD PARTY CERTIFICATE
To use a third party certificate or a certificate generated from another EyEnroll install, click the Load Existing Certificate
button. If the certificate requires a password, enter it in the box to the left. If EyEnroll needs a password and one was not
provided, it will prompt you to create a password. Use only a 1024-bit certificate for portable templates. The system is
not compatible with other certificate bit lengths.
OTHER OPTIONS
• Use Default Certificate: This option will revert EyEnroll to use the Default nano NXT Certificate for portable
templates.
• Default Template Validity Duration: The templates encoded to cards or mobile devices have a built-in valid
date period. This period is displayed on the Edit User screen of EyEnroll. The portable template will not
authenticate a user outside of that date range. For convenience, the default date validity period can be entered
as a range (in days) from when the template is written. Date range may be modified at the time of writing. Any
updates to template credential or validity duration must be completed at enrollment station.
• ID Type: Set the card format for the underlying access system at the facility.
NOTE: When portable template mode is activated, EyEnroll deletes all devices from the On Device list. As a result,
EyEnroll will not write any access system test data to the nano NXTs. User templates will still be stored on the database
configured in EyEnroll.
