Enrolling User
The FingerTec terminals can enroll fingerprint templates, passwords and card informa-
tion. This chapter covers all possible user enrollments in the terminals.
FINGERPRINT ENROLLMENT
It is recommended to enroll two fingerprints for one user ID. One template is the de-
fault fingerprint and another is used as for backup. You need to check the quality of
the fingerprint before doing any fingerprint enrollment. It is important to locate the
center points of the finger because the center points has to be placed in the middle of
the scanner during enrollment to get a good reading. You also have to make sure that
the fingers are not too wet or too dry for enrollment.
To enroll ngerprint: Press Menu > User Mgmt icon > New User > ID. No: (insert value)
> Select “Enroll FP” > Select Privilege > Place your fingerprint 3 times following instruc-
tions given by the terminal > OK to save.
CARD ENROLLMENT
For terminals that are using card system, the default card technology for the terminal
is RFID. MiFare and HID card modules are available upon request.
To enroll card: Press Menu > User Mgmt icon > New User > ID No: > Insert User ID >
Select “Enroll Card” > Wave the card at the scanning area until the screen displays the
Card ID > OK to save.
PASSwORD ENROLLMENT
The terminal offers different enrolment methods, and passwords can be used alone or
in combination with other verification methods. The maximum length of a password
is 8 digits.
To enroll password: Press Menu > User Mgmt icon > New User > ID No: (insert value)
> Select “Enroll Pwd” > Input password using the keypad > Reconfirm password > OK
> OK to save.
Verifying User
1:1 (ONE TO ONE) / 1:N (ONE TO MANY)
VERIFICATION METHOD PROCESS
1:1 (One to One) You have to identify your User ID before inputting any biometrics
feature for verification. For example, your user ID is 1008. One to
one method requires you to key in user ID followed by your finger-
print to get verified.
1:N (One to Many) You don’t need to identify your User ID before inputting any bio-
metrics feature for verification. Simply place your finger on the
scanner for verification.

VOICE MESSAGE
VOICE / MESSAGE wHAT DOES IT MEAN?
“Verified” Identity verification is successful, the terminal stores the transaction
logs and opens the door (if connected to door access)
“Try again please” Identity verification is failed because the finger is not properly posi-
tioned, the template is not available in the terminal or the password
is incorrect.
“Admin Affirm” You are not an administrator of the system and you cannot access
Menu page
“Duplicate Finger” This message only appears during registration when the finger that
you want to enroll has been enrolled before. “FP Enrolled Alrd” will be
displayed on the LCD screen.
“Invalid ID” For 1:1 verification, User ID entered does not match with fingerprint.
FINGERPRINT VERIFICATION
1:N – 1:N verification does not require any input of your user ID. Place your finger properly on
