activates the lock-release or another device. To do this, just run your finger along the
reader sensor.
- Reader with 2 status leds and a 4 digit, 7 segment display.
- Infrared Keypad for Programming. The system is programmed with the Master fingerprint/
card and a remote infrared keypad.
- Lock-Release Activation Relay
- Auxiliary Relay for other Functions
-Auxiliary Input for Exit Button
- Input for Open Door Sensor
Can operate as a centralised or autonomous system (configurable using dipswitches).
AUTONOMOUS configuration.
This is codified using the dipswitch on the back of the device. To function as a centralised
reader dipswitch 8 of the reader has to be set to ON.
System Features:
The fingerprint reader is an autonomous reader with an integrated controller.
This is a biometric recognition system based on the users’ fingerprints, which allows a
greater level of security than that offered by other systems which use different types of
identifiers. It has a built in proximity reader with the following functionality:
- Some people’s fingerprints do not have the information required to register them in a
biometric system. An estimated 1% of the population. In these cases we use the built
in Proximity reader.
- Security mode: double security is activated, Fingerprint+Card or Fingerprint+Code (if
the reader has a keypad), for the same User.
Introduction
- Fingerprint reader with a thermal sensor and capacity to store up to 4500 fingerprints.
- Number of users:
* 4500 in 1 fingerprint per person mode.
* 2970 in 2 fingerprint per person mode.
The use of one of these fingerprints (if registered on the system) will result in the
activation of a relay which

1. Not Set-Up. Default Status (as set in factory). A master fingerprint/card has not yet been
registered.
2. Standby. Normal mode, waiting for registered users to use fingerprint identification.
Where the user is recognised this will be indicated by way of an acoustic tone, a green
light and the lock-release relay will also be activated.

Add Users
To register new users. Every user has an associated "user number" from 0001 to maximum.
The codes are stored in the memory in sequence: user number - user fingerprint.
Number of Users:
* 4500 in 1 fingerprint per person mode.
* 2970 in 2 fingerprint per person mode.
NOTE:
- It is very important to compile a list linking the user names and numbers (fingerprint
recorded position) such that it will only be possible to delete a fingerprint if you know its
associated position. The only other option is to delete ALL fingerprints on the reader,
therefore we re-iterate the importance of compiling a list with aforementioned data.
Example of table:
The sequence for registering a user passes through all of the possible options
consecutively:
- 1 fingerprint user mode
- 2 fingerprint user mode
- With proximity card or code

6. Cancel the rest of the options with "X" until the new option d1.1 is shown, to continue registering users.
Repeat the aforementioned steps to register new users in mode 1 fingerprint.
NOTES:
- The same fingerprint cannot be entered twice on different registers (user number), therefore if it is
already registered on the system it cannot be re-registered.
- The master fingerprint cannot be the user fingerprint either.
Details: If the reader is unable to read the user fingerprint an
error message will appear and it will re-start. 1 beep
b) Add User in 2 Fingerprint Mode
Allows two fingerprints be registered for one user. The user can chose between the
following second fingerprint functions:
- Allows the use of the second fingerprint where there is a problem with the first one
(short-circuit, fire damage .....etc).
For this functionality choose the corresponding option: relay (to open the door).
- Intimidation Alarm. Using the second fingerprint instead of the first one the lock-
release will activate as will the alarm output. Where the first fingerprint is used only
the lock-release activates.
For this functionality choose the corresponding option: Au (to activate the auxiliary exit
and the lock-release).
