Chapter 1. Introduction
1.1 Product Introduction
 Overview
The use of biometrics system continuously increases in various
authentication systems and in areas that require a higher level
of security because of its ease of use and economical benefits.
Among a number of biometrics system, a fingerprint recognition
system is not only easy to use but also enables economical
product development. It takes up the most part of the market
as it allows a wide variety of application. NITGEN, a leader
in the fingerprint recognition area, has provided fingerprint
recognition solutions for the management of PC security,
knowledge, safe, access control, electronic payment and
financial clearings. Continuous R&D activities and quality
management ensure that NITGEN meets evolving needs and demands
of the market and the customers.
NITGEN access control system is a culmination of world-renowned
technologies from NITGEN including fingerprint recognition
algorithms, optical sensor, embedded design and software
applications. Unlike legacy access control systems that use
only password and ID card, it provides the ease of use and tight
security with no risk of forgetting password, stolen cards or
forgery. The system is designed to provide maximum operational
efficiency over the network by enabling remote monitoring on
terminals that have been independent so far.
NITGEN access control system allows various combinations of FR
card, password and fingerprints. It also meets the common set
of requirements and special needs in the corporate and

government sectors with such functions as shortened ID, 1:N
matching and voice guidelines.
The manual gives in-depth explanation as to how to use NITGEN
access control terminal (NAC-2500).

2.3 Fingerprint Use
To prevent authentication errors from occurring during the
registration and authentication of fingerprint, please follow the
methods below.
① To maximize the contact area and press the surface evenly.
On a scale of 0 to 100% (0%: minimum power 100%:
maximum power), please press the surface with
approximately 50%~70% power.
② Please place the core of fingerprint shape in the center. In
general, the core of fingerprint is located in the same line
with half moon in user’ s fingernail and therefore, place the
half moon in the center of fingerprint sensor.

2.4 Authentication
NITGEN Access Control System recognizes fingerprint, password,
and RF CARD (optional) for authentication. Users can get
authentication by freely choosing any method depending on
their own environment.
2.4.1Fingerprint
The following methods can be used to check access right with
fingerprints.
• 1:1 Match
It is to input fingerprint after feeding an ID that is already
registered. It matches input fingerprint with an already
registered fingerprint for a specific ID on a 1:1 basis. The
time required for authentication for 1:1 match is substantially
short regardless of the number of users. There is no need to
set the mode in a system. Authentication procedure begins
when fingerprint is input after ID is typed in.
First, please input user ID and then press ENTER or place your
finger on a sensor if Auto-ON is enabled.

• 1:N Match
It does authentication only with a registered fingerprint. The
authentication procedure is simple but it can take relatively
longer time than the 1:1 match when a number of users try to
access the system. There is no need to set the mode in a
system. A simple input of fingerprint will initiate the
authentication process. If it takes too long for 1:N authentication
due to too many users, please try ‘ 1:N time set’ in which
authentication is retried by typing in ID when authentication is
not completed within in the set time. Please refer to the following
details for ‘ 1:N authentication time.’
• Authentication with Shortened ID (SID)
Users can select ID with characters between 4~15
depending on default setting. Shortened authentication is
designed to simplify an ID input procedure in which the
authentication begins with only a couple of characters from a
S u c c e s s !

S u c c e s s !

set ID to be input. For example, if a user uses an ID of 1234
567, the 1:N match against any IDs starting with 12xxxxx is
initiated in the system when the user inputs 12 followed by a
fingerprint. There is no need to set the mode in a system.
• Authentication for attendance mode
It does authentication by using function keys (F1~F4).
Before trying authentication, please press an appropriate
function key and proceed with authentication. In this case,
the result associated with the pressed function key remains
in log history which can be used for attendance data. For
example, if a user presses F1 and then inputs an ID, the
ID+F1 remain in log history. Also, if a user presses F1 only
and then proceeds with 1:N authentication, an appropriate ID
is searched to remain ‘ ID+F1’ record.
The following shows an LCD display when pressing F1.

• Authentication failure message
The following messages are displayed depending on authentication
method and causes of failure.
An error message for matching failure.
The following message is displayed when image capturing is
failed. When the message is displayed, please check if
your fingerprint is too dry or too wet.

2.4.2Password
It checks the right to access by using 4~8 digit password and
it is used in special occasions including damaged
fingerprint.
Password can be set up to 8 digits.
2.4.3RF Card (optional)
User identity is confirmed through a RF CARD that he or she has.
By registering RF CARD numbers in the system, the use of lost
or stolen card can be prevented. To initiate authentication
by using a RF CARD, you can either contact RF card when the
initial screen appears or contact RF card when the following
message is displayed after typing in user ID.
Please place your card in front of the fingerprint sensor when
the following message appears.
The following message appears in case of success.
