Preparation
Facial Registration and Authentication
Cautions regarding facial registration
• When registering a face, keep a distance of 60–100cm between the system and face.
• Be careful not to change facial expression.
• Do not wear a mask, hat, or eye patch.
• Do not register a face while wearing a mask. Registering both a masked face and a non-masked face may increase
false recognition rates.
• Do not raise or lower your head.
• Do not wear heavy makeup.
• Do not close your eyes.
• Make sure both shoulders appear on the screen.
• Stand in front of the screen without moving while registering your face.
• Make sure that only one face appears on the screen. Register one person at a time.
• If you do not follow the instructions on the screen, facial registration may take a long time or may fail.
Cautions regarding facial authentication
• Make sure your face appears in the center of the screen. When the position guide is shown, follow the on-screen
instructions for facial authentication.
• If part of your face is covered by a hat, mask, sunglasses, eye patch, etc., facial authentication may fail. Ensure your
faced is not covered, so the system can recognize your eyebrows and face.
• Try facial authentication at a distance of 60–100cm from the system.
• Make sure both shoulders appear on the screen. If your shoulders are not even, facial authentication may fail. Stand
in front of the screen without moving during facial authentication.

60 ~ 100 cm
65°
• It is recommended that the system be installed at a height of 136cm.
• Do not install the system in a location where it will be exposed to direct sunlight or ultraviolet rays.
• Adjust the position of the system so that your face is not exposed to direct sunlight during facial
authentication.
2
Mount the bracket securely using the Bracket Fixing Screw at the position where the BioStation 3 is to be installed.

11
Installation
• When installing BioStation 3 on a concrete wall, drill a hole, insert a PVC Anchor, and then fix it with the Fixing
Screw.
• Ensure there is a minimum separation distance to avoid RF interference.

DC power
• Use an IEC/EN 62368-1 compliant power adapter suited to the device's power consumption. If you need to
connect other devices to the power adapter, use an adapter with a current capacity greater than the sum of
the power consumption of the system and the other devices.
• Be sure to use separate power sources for the Secure I/O 2, electric lock, and the product. Sharing a power
source with other devices may cause malfunction.
• When connecting power, pay attention to the distance between BioStation 3 and the power supply. The
system and the power supply should be as close as possible. The system may malfunction if not properly
connected. If the system and power supply are far apart, it is recommended to use 16-AWG or 18-AWG
cable. The connection distance available may vary depending on the size of the cable and the installation
environment. BioStation 3 supports both 24VDC and 12VDC, so check the maximum extension length of the
cable and ensure the power source is connected properly.
Cable Size
Maximum Extension Length
24 V DC 12 V DC

18AWG 136m 30m
20AWG 90m 20m
• When using a power adapter (24VDC (± 10%), 2.5A), do not arbitrarily extend the length of the power cable.
• Do not use CAT5 UTP 2-Wire cables for power supply.

LAN connection (directly to a PC)
BioStation 3 supports automatic MDI/MDIX, so it can be directly connected to a PC with a crossover cable or a normal
straight-type CAT-5 cable.

• See the information below when using a Gigabit Ethernet switch.
- Use CAT-5e unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable.
- Use all 4 pairs (8 wires) for network connection.
- Do not use some of the pairs or wires for other purposes.

Installation
Connecting to a Relay
Fail Safe Lock
To use the Fail Safe Lock, connect the N/C relay as shown below. While using the Fail Safe Lock, there is a current flowing
through the relay circuit, and when the relay temporarily cuts off the current, the door will open. In case of power
outage or system power loss due to external factors, the door will open.

• To protect the relay from the reverse current generated when the lock is activated, install the diode on both
sides of the lock wiring as shown in the illustration.
• Use separate power sources for BioStation 3 and the lock.
• For user convenience, Suprema's intelligent device has an independent built-in relay that can directly open or
lock the door without a controller. However, for access control applications requiring enhanced security, it is
recommended not to use the built-in relay, in order to prevent tampering that could potentially cause the door
to be unlocked. When using such access control applications, please use a separate relay such as Suprema's
Secure I/O 2, DM-20, or CoreStation installed in a safe location inside the door for lock control.
Pay attention to the orientation of the diode during installation. The diode should be close to the door lock.

Installation
Fail Secure Lock
To use the Fail Secure Lock, connect the N/O relay as shown below. While using the Fail Secure Lock, there is no current
flowing through the relay circuit, and when the relay allows the current to flow, the door will open. In case of power
outage or system power loss due to external factors, the door will lock.
