and apply gentle, even pressure. Do not “roll” your finger as usually practiced in the traditional ink and paper fingerprint taking technique. Pressing too hard will distort your fingerprint. Pressing too lightly will not expose a large enough area of your finger. Also, make sure to hold your finger on the sensor until you see the sensor light blink; this may take longer for dry fingers. Then, lift your finger. Although you may use any finger with the sensor, your index finger of either hand works best. If the sensor is capturing your finger image as indicated by the sensor blink and you have tried all the above suggestions, you may need to reregister your finger.

d.Sensor Activation

There will always be a red light from the sensor to detect the presence of a finger when the sensor is activated. Failure to connect to a self-powered USB port will cause non-operation of the sensor. If you activate your terminal’s power saving functionality but your third party application does not support this, then your fingerprint sensor will enter “sleep mode” even though your workstation does not.耟If this occurs, you will need to disconnect and reconnect the sensor to the USB port. Please check with your application developer for compatibility.

e.Cleaning the Sensor

Depending on the amount of use, the sensor window may need to be cleaned periodically. To clean it, apply the sticky side of a piece of adhesive cellophane tape on the window and peel it away as in the drawing at right.

Under heavy usage, the window coating on some sensors may turn cloudy from the salt in perspiration. In this case, gently wipe the window with a cloth (not paper) dampened with a mild ammonia-based glass cleaner.

MAGNETIC STRIPE READER

The magnetic stripe reader in KP100 / KP110 connects to the host through KB port and therefore requires no driver installation to get it working. The magnetic stripe reader in SD100 / SD110 / SD200 / SD210 connects to the host through USB port working as a USB KB and therefore also requires no driver installation except setting up the USB keyboard to be enabled in system CMOS setup.

Besides the interface options there are also reader head options applicable to MSR in these security devices. The reader head can be either JIS

IItype or any of the possible configurations in ISO standard (tracks 1 & 2, 2 & 3, 1 & 2 & 3). For ISO MSR, some parameters on data readout can be set by jumper setting or by software provided by Posiflex as below. For MSR to read card of AAMVA and CA DMV, the reader head must be the 3 tracks ISO type.

There is a “Posiflex USB MSR Manager” program provided to control some parameter configuration for this MSR. The features controllable in this
