General
PeopleKey’s customers arrange for the network, electrical power cabling, and mounting of the V30 Plus Finger
Scanner to the wall or location of operation. PeopleKey prefers that its customers use their own electricians, IT
staff and handymen to do the installation of the V30 Plus Finger Scanner.
An “Installation plan” must consider where the power source, communication and control cables are laid, and
where users have convenient safe access.
Where the installation is for access control, the client arranges for the door wiring, lock smith, supply of the
electronic door locks, and any required security control systems.
The FingerLan software, which manages the finger templates and communication with the V30 Plus Finger
Scanners, is installed on a Server or PC accessible to the V30 Plus Finger Scanner’s on the network.
Training on enrolment and general use of the system can commence once the system is fully operational.
The Time & Attendance application can be installed once the system is fully commissioned and as a separate
process.

Clients need to choose an area which is easily accessible to all staff required to use the V30 plus Finger
Scanner. The following points need to be taken into consideration for the placement of the V30 plus Finger
Scanner:
Height The height to the top of the scanner is recommended to be installed at 1.2 meters from the floor
Clearance
The V30 plus Finger Scanner requires a minimum clearance of 100mm all around for installation and
service requirements.
Left and Right handed operation
Please allow for enough clearance all around the V30 Plus Finger Scanner allowing for left and right-
handed users. Consider enough space for bent arms and elbows.
Line of sight to the door
When physical door access is required (the V30 plus Finger Scanner unlocks a door) the V30 Plus
Finger Scanner should at least be in line of site to the door that it is controlling, so as to limit
unauthorised access by tail gating (more than one person entering at the same time).
Avoid collisions/ congestions
Area’s with high traffic usage; where a person scanning will block the flow; should be avoided. Door
openings should not swing into the area colliding with the person operating the V30 plus Finger
Scanner.
Avoid tight passage ways.
Area’s that have trollies, people carrying box’s, pallet or forklift operations, the position and height for
the V30 Plus Finger Scanner should be adjusted to avoid being damaged.
Cable requirements
Networking / interfacing. The V30 plus Finger Scanner location and mounting position will dictate the
communication mode. The V30 plus Finger Scanner connectivity default is via Ethernet –10/100Mbps.
Options include RS485 or RS232, Wiegand, 3G and wireless modem. These options are detailed later
in this manual.
Power cabling, as detailed in the “Power for the scanner” chapter in this manual, the cable run, length
and access require planning prior to installation.
Additional cabling requirements can also include Door strike relay, Door monitor, REX input, Alarm
outputs. The cabling run, length and access require planning prior to installation.
Concrete wall mounting
If the V30 plus Finger Scanner is mounted on a concrete wall, holes should be drilled into the wall and
adequate fastening hardware used depending on the mounting surface. There is a round knockout
located on the bottom of the rear housing if external cable ducting is required.
Environmental conditions.
The V30 plus Finger Scanner position should be positioned taking into consideration the following
environmental conditions:

- 6 -
Operating temperature range: -10oto +50o Celsius.
Not Exposed to water, ingress protection (IP) rating = IP65.
Not exposed to direct sunlight.
Should not be mounted underneath an Air Conditioner drain.
Service requirements.
Cabling lengths should be sufficient to allow the V30 plus Finger Scanner to be removed from the wall
and remain in operation.
To facilitate servicing, the V30 plus Finger Scanner shroud requires removal. Refer to Figure 4.

Power for the V30 Plus Finger Scanner unit
The V30 Plus Finger Scanner requires a direct current voltage (DC) supply to operate. The scanner will operate
from +8vDC to +18vDC, ideally a regulated +12vDC supply. Do not connect to AC or Mains power.
Operating input voltage range
There are four external power options:
1. 12Volts DC from a “plug pack” as supplied from PeopleKey.
2. Power Over Ethernet (POE). [Note:- Additional hardware required]
3. 20 way Cable loom.
External DC Power
The 12v DC power pack would normally be plugged into the nearest GPO power outlet. A 12 Volt DC power
pack is supplied by PeopleKey with the V30 plus Finger Scanner - its cable may need to be fed through the wall
or conduit by an electrician. The low power (12VDC) cable provided is approximately 1.5m in length. This can
be lengthened by an electrician as required, or an extension can be purchased (known as a CCD camera power
extension cable at some electrical outlets).
The V30 plus Finger Scanner DC socket input “Tip”is a “Positive” centre.
Power consumption is very low, at less than 120mA per finger scanner when in standby (assuming no other
devices such as door strike mechanisms are powered). Max power during a scan is typically 200mA.
Clients should consider using a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supplies) where power outages are common. The
same considerations as for other IT equipment in terms of “filtered” or “clean” power and protection against
lighting strikes should also be taken with the V30 Plus Finger Scanner equipment.
Some clients prefer to have their electrician’s mount the power pack in a ceiling, wall or a small plastic box to
hide the 12V power supply or protect it from tampering. Access in the instance of a failure should also be
considered.

Power over Ethernet (POE)
The POE feature on PeopleKey V30 Plus Finger Scanners is available as an option in lieu of a 12V power
supply.
A separate POE board is required (Fig 7), it is housed within the V30 Plus Finger Scanners housing. This add-
on will be configured by PeopleKey prior to shipment. All I/O’s will only be available on the plug in 20 pin wiring
cable loom.

Data communications cable
Standard connections (Ethernet)
The data communication cable will need to be a standard 4 pair Cat5e UTP (or better). The termination is a
standard RJ45 plug.
If the V30 Plus Finger Scanner is connected to local area network (LAN) using a router or switch, a
standard Cat5e connection is required.
If the cable from the V30 Plus Finger Scanner plugs directly into a PC (into its network card), a cross-
over Ethernet cable has to be used.
The Cat5e data cable will need to be shielded in instances where the cable will be running near other high
voltage appliances or cables or where RF is a factor.

Physical Access Control
Where electronic door locks are to be controlled by the V30 Plus Finger Scanner the door lock wiring is
connected to the back of the V30 Plus Finger Scanner via the 20 way cable harness.
The V30 Plus can power door locking mechanisms that have a Maximum current draw of 150ma @12V. If you
are unsure please contact PeopleKey support for guidance.
Most door locks operate on 12V power, and a single “figure 8” wire pair is sufficient. Where a high voltage; high
power motorized door lock is required, or where other alarm equipment is used to power the door lock,
PeopleKey should be consulted to confirm the wiring requirement. Details for all connection options are listed in
the I/O table later in this manual.
Should customers require the monitoring of doors to report when the door is forced, opened or left ajar,
additional door switch detection wiring is required comprising of another pair of “figure 8” wire, Reed switch or
similar.

Card Readers and other I/O devices
Card readers, Barcode Scanners, PC Kiosks, printers, breathalyzers and many other types of equipment may
be connected to a PeopleKey V30 Plus Finger Scanner. In these applications, special cabling is often required
and PeopleKey should be consulted.
Some clients have their own unique card technology and/or specific card population. These can be external
devices connected to a V30 Plus Finger Scanner. Communications is either via RS232 or Wiegand.
Internal card reader
In high security environments, clients may require a card reader device to be fitted internally in the V30 Plus
Finger Scanner. The card reader potentially adds a second level of security due to the card reader/card security
mechanisms.
PeopleKey provides an optional iClass/Mifare or 125Khz internal card reader, so no additional external wiring is
required. (Figure 8)
Figure 8: V30 Plus with card reader installed internally.
Additional Equipment examples
Bar code reader

V30 Plus Web Interface Details
The V30 Plus web interface is a web based server application which displays information presented in a single
function screen. This interface allows interaction and configuration of the V30 Plus unit via a web browser like
Internet Explorer.
It is the responsibility of the client to set up the required security and access policies to allow its users to use the
application from other PC clients.
Figure 9: V30 Plus Web Interface
To access the V30 Plus web interface, enter the IP address of the V30 plus Finger Scanner into a web browser
i.e.:- 192.168.1.2.
If the unit has been configured for DHCP t the IP address may be obtained by running the command prompt
and type in “ping v30-3xxxxx” where “xxxxx” is the serial number of the V30 plus Finger Scanner.

Outputs and Inputs, Signals and Controls
Wiegand communication
The V30 Plus Finger Scanner supports Wiegand In and Wiegand Out. It can interpret any incoming Wiegand
communications (such as remote Wiegand instructions or External Card Reader Wiegand signals) to control
various security features. Full formatting of the Wiegand word is available.
Wiegand IN
Digital signals from mostly card reader devices, provides the ID number of the user. This is used
instead the ID number entered from a keypad.
Wiegand OUT
A digital signal transmitted by the V30 Plus Finger Scanner to simulate a card reader to communicate to
alarm panels and security access control systems when a user successfully verifies on the V30 Plus
Finger Scanner.
Wiegand Thru
The inputted Wiegand signal is passed through the V30 Plus finger Scanner and is transferred directly
to the Wiegand out signal.
Door Access Control
A relay is fitted (Internal or external) to switch an electric door lock open or closed when a user scans a finger
(direct door access control)
Remote Unlock Module
For high security installations, the V30 plus Finger Scanners support an optional Remote Unlock Module which
can in turn lock/unlock a door. A control signal is used to control the module from the V30 Plus therefore
accessing the wiring of the V30 plus Finger Scanner will not allow a perpetrator to “Short Circuit” the door lock
wiring to gain access.
Timed door access control
This feature allows for specific door access times to be programmed by User ID, time zone or simply barred or
granted. 30 programmable time zones are available. Two zones can be applied simultaneously in one 24 hour
period, and two specific time zones are capable of allowing access only once, subsequently denying further
attempts at access. This functionality can be complimented by any existing door access control system. This
function is programmed within the FingerLan software.
Request to Exit (REX)
This is used to monitor a switch used to override Finger scanning to allow door access to bypass the need to
scan a finger when leaving a building where the V30 plus Finger Scanner is used to control entry access only.
Door monitor
Monitoring and reporting is available for the following situations; door ajar, door forced (breach) and request to
exit (REX).
Communications
Alternative communication connections are available, being serial options of RS232 / RS485

General IT requirements
Only Windows based operating systems are supported in the PeopleKey IT environment.
Clients will need to determine the following information for the connection of each V30 Plus Finger Scanner
A static IP address for the PC / Server (Host IP Address).
A static IP Address must be assigned for each V30 Plus Finger Scanner unit being installed, or
DHCP should be available on the network for the V30 Plus to obtain an IP address automatically. It
is important that the units “IP Address”is not used by any other device.
Gateway and subnet information.
Resolve any Firewall and Anti-virus related issues
PeopleKey continuously bench test all applications when new PC operating and Server systems are released.
Please contact PeopleKey Support when PC/Server system upgrade or migration is planned.
Hardware resources
Server resource use is minimal with FingerLan; it can often run on a desktop PC and even note-books
depending on the number of V30 Plus Finger Scanners supported. Disc space for the requisite software is
often below 150 Mb and space for data growth of 100 Mb per year is often sufficient depending on the number
of users, activity rate and IT data management policies.
In terms of memory overhead (RAM) a PC or server with 4GB of memory will be adequate for small numbers of
installed V30 plus Finger Scanners. Still it should be checked if the server has enough processing power
(memory free and processing power free) to enable PeopleKey applications to run.
Functions / Operation
The V30 Plus web interface can be used to perform configuration parameter changes of the V30 plus Finger
Scanner; FingerLan is used to manage users, user groups, access control and user administrative levels.
If 3rd party software is used to access the FingerLan data, the FingerLan server or PC hard drive will have to be
networked and mapped for this purpose.
If the clocked times and related data are to be used frequently, the V30 plus Finger Scanners are required to be
on-line permanently. A Windows based PC or Server permanently on line is strongly recommended to run the
Fingerlan software.
V30 plus Finger Scanners can collect data in “off-line mode” but the risk of data loss (in the unlikely but possible
event of hardware failure) is limited if distributed and duplicated on a live server.
Verification time and date data is sent via Ethernet to the Fingerlan software and stored in a Microsoft Access or
SQL Database. The software runs two services on the host server, enabling data collection from V30 Plus
Finger Scanners live, whether the FingerLan software user interface is opened or not.
Additional reporting / query software such as WorkForce Clarity is available from PeopleKey and can reside on
client PCs, utilizing ODBC connectivity to access the database file on the server.
