Chapter 2 – Introduction to Fingerprint
Recognition Technology
Prior to operating the B2000, it is essential to understand how fingerprint recognition technology works. Adding and
verifying fingergprints is the core function of the B2000. Once a thorough understanding of fingerprint recognition
technology is obtained, you will find your experience with the B2000 to be very productive and rewarding.
2.1 How Fingerprint Recognition Technology Works
When the user places his/her finger on a Fingerprint Recognition Device (i.e.the B2000) for the first time, the fingerprint
is scanned and converted into a computer-generated “biometric Template”. The templates can only be recognized by
each respective biometric manufacturer’s devices. Also note that these “templates” are NOT actual fingerprint images.
“Real” fingerprint images cannot be re-generated from these templates.
All fingerprints contain a number of unique physical characteristics called minutiae. Minutiae include certain visible
aspects of fingerprints such as ridges, ridge endings and bifurcation (forking) of ridges. Most of the minutiae are found
in the core points of fingerprints, and the core points themselves are found near the center of the fingerprint on the
fleshy pad of the finger.
The figure below shows the positions of core points within fingerprints. The core points are represented by the red
dots in the figure below.
A core poirnt is defined as the topmost point on the innermost upward recurring ridge line.
A user is considered “enrolled” in the B2000 after his/her fingerprint(s) or password has been successfully registered in
the clock’s database.
When the user places his/her finger on the B2000 fingerprint sensor during the enrollment process, the B2000 takes a
picture of that finger’s key minutiae points. The B2000 then uses its proprietary mathematical algorithm and converts
that picture into a unique mathematical template which is comparable to a 60-digit password. This unique template is
then encrypted and stored in the B2000 database.

6
B2000 User Manual
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Privacy issues should never be a concern when using the B2000 as no real image of a user’s fingerprint is actually
stored. In stead, ONLY the minutiae-based templates are actually stored.
Each time a user’s fingerprint is scanned, the B2000 searches its database for a matching fingerprint. If the B2000
finds the user’s matching fingerprint, then his/her “attendance” is recorded in the B2000 “audit log” and will be noted in
subsequent reports.
2.2 Achieving Good Fingerprint Images
The quality of fingerprint images is relative to the number of minutiae points captured by the B2000’s sensor.
Fingerprint images not possessing an adequate number of minutiae points may be unreadable. For those users
whose fingerprint images lack sufficient minutiae points and cannot be read by the sensor, it is advised to issue a
password instead.
The images below show poor-quality fingerprints, characterized by smudged, faded or otherwise distorted areas on the
fingerprint. These conditions can be caused by excessive dryness or wetness, excessive or insufficient pressure, or
scarring of the skin at the fingertip.
The B2000 fingerprint matching algorithm is often capable of extracting the correct minutiae even without the benefit of
a perfect print. However, the positioning of the finger and the relative moisture and pressure of the fingerprint when it
is placed on the sensor are important contributing factors in achieving a good, consistent fingerprint match.
2.3 Correcting Wet or Dry Fingerprint Images
When the temperature is very cold or just after washing hands, fingerprints often become very dry. In this case, the
user should moisturize his/her fingerprint simply by breathing on the fleshy pad of his/her fingertip prior to placing the
finger on the sensor. The moisture from his/her breath should improve the recognition of his/her fingerprint.

7
B2000 User Manual
Conversely, if the fingerprint is too wet, the ridges and valleys are rendered indistinguishable. The lack of
recognizable minutiae causes wet fingerprints to be rejected by the B2000. This can be remedied simply by swiping the
finger on a clean, dry towel or cloth.
2.4 How Much Pressure is Required for a Good-Quality
Fingerprint?
If too much pressure is applied when pressing down on the fingerprint sensor, the finger’s ridges become pressed
together and create an indistinguishable image. Applying too much pressure (similar to fingerprints that are too wet)
will create a “blurred” image which the B2000 sensor might not recognize.
If too little pressure is applied, the resulting image will be similar to the dry fingerprint.
Be sure to maintain contact with the fingerprint sensor for 2 full seconds, until the B2000 responds. The
B2000 has both audio and visual indicators which respond when the B2000 senses a finger.
2.5 Proper Finger Placement
The user’s finger should completely cover the sensor. The finger should be placed flat and in the center of the sensor.
The finger should cover at least 80% of the sensor as shown below:

Chapter 3: Identity Verification
This B2000 will NOT record an employee’s attendance OR allow door access UNTIL the individual’s identity is verified.
The B2000 uses various means to verify a user’s identify:
• Fingerprint Matching
• Password Matching
• Card Matching (optional)
3.1 Fingerprint Matching
The B2000 supports two methods of fingerprint matching, 1:N and 1:1.
3.1.1 1:N Fingerprint Matching
When using 1:N Fingerprint Matching, the B2000 will place the fingerprint (“1”) in its temporary memory and then
compare it to ALL (“N”) the fingerprint templates stored in the B2000 database (up to 2800 templates).
By using 1:N matching, the user enjoys the convenience of not having to additionally enter his/her User ID number prior
to placing his/her finger on the sensor. 1:N is the fastest and easiest method of fingerprint matching.
Using 1:N Fingerprint Matching
Start from the Main screen:

10
B2000 User Manual
Properly place the finger on the sensor. A confirmation screen similar to the following will appear:
The clock will also respond “Thank you” when the user has successfully verified his/her identify. If the B2000
responds “Please Try Again”, the operation must be repeated.
3.1.2 1:1 Fingerprint Matching (ID. NO + Fingerprint)
The B2000 can perform 1:1 fingerprint matching. 1:1 requires the additional step of first entering the user’s ID. No.
1:1 matching is more consistent then 1:N matching.
Using 1:1 Fingerprint Matching
Prior to placing his/her finger on the B2000 sensor, the user must FIRST enter his/her ID number and press the M/OK
key. If the fingerprint template registered with his/her user ID (“1”) matches his/her finger (“1”), the user’s identity has
been successfully verified using 1:1 fingerprint matching.

11
B2000 User Manual
Start at the Main screen.
Enter the User ID No and press the M/OK key. The screen will appear as follows:

B2000 User Manual
The user places his/her finger on the sensor. If the B2000 recognizes the user’s fingerprint, the screen will look similar
to the following:
The clock will also respond “Thank you” when the user has successfully verified his/her identify. If the B2000
responds “Please Try Again”, the operation must be repeated.
3.1.3 Password Matching
If too many users have difficulty with fingerprint matching, you can register them with passwords instead of fingerprints.
Using Password Matching
Start at the Main screen.

13
B2000 User Manual
Enter the User ID No and press the M/OK key. The screen will prompt for a password.
If the screen does not prompt for a password, the user has not been enrolled with a password. If the B2000 prompts
“Error Enroll No”, the incorrect ID number has been entered.
After entering the User Id, the user will enter his/her password and press the M/OK key. If a match is made, the
screen a confirmation screen will appear.
The clock will also respond “Thank you” when the user has successfully verified his/her identify. If the B2000
responds “Error Password”, the operation must be repeated.

Chapter 4 – User Management
4.1 User Management
To limit the privileges of administrators on the device and to avoid an unauthorized person changing the settings or
damaging the data of the device, there are three privilege levels of users: user, enroller and administrator.
• Users are people whose identify must be verified to gain access to a facility or to have their attendance recorded.
• Enrollers are authorized to enroll new users or delete users from the system.
• Administrators can perform the same functions as enrollers and all other operations.
User Verification: The device provides two types of verification modes for a user – Password Verification and Card
Verification. These will be discussed later in this document.
Administrator Verification: Press the M button. At the device prompt [Admin Affirm], input the Administrator ID and
press the OK button. Hold your administrator card to the card reader or input the password.
Note: If there is no administrator in the device, the user can enter the menu without Administrator Verification.
