Fingerprint Authentication Utility

Power-on security can be configured to operate with the fingerprint logon feature. If a fingerprint used for power-on security matches a fingerprint in an existing passport, the corresponding user is logged on automatically without having to enter the Windows® logon password.

NOTE

Your hardware must support Power-on security to use the

 

single logon feature. You must have administrative privileges

 

to change settings.

 

 

To enable power-on security single logon:

1Open the Control Center and go to Settings - System Settings.

2Select Logon.

3Check the Allow power-on security single sign-on check box. (Logon support must be enabled for this option to be accessible.)

Fingerprint Management

Fingerprints are stored in memory during enrollment. After a fingerprint is enrolled, it is displayed with a power-on button above it. The button appears “pressed in” by default, indicating that the corresponding finger will be used for power-on security. If you do not want to use a fingerprint for power-on security but only for logon, click the Boot button to delete the fingerprint from the fingerprint device memory.

The fingerprint device memory can typically hold up to 21 fingerprints. The number of slots remaining is displayed in the enrollment wizard.

Control Center

The Control Center contains various functions for fingerprint management and for setting up your fingerprint software. Available options depend on the software status, used hardware, and installed applications.
