A FINGERPRINT code identifies the user by their fingerprint. Each finger is enrolled with 3 samples.

Requirements

  • The local agent (InssaBio) must be running on the machine.
  • The reader must be connected.

The manager shows two indicators: Agent active / inactive and Reader connected / disconnected. If the agent does not answer you see Local agent (InssaBio) not detected: open it, connect the reader and retry.

Enrolling a finger

  1. Open Manage fingerprints on the code.
  2. Pick the finger on the hand diagram. Green ones are already enrolled.
  3. Capture fingerprint and place the finger; repeat until the 3 samples are complete. Each take can be retaken.
  4. Save fingerprint.

Restart discards the takes and starts over.

Recapturing

Recapture replaces the 3 samples of an already enrolled finger (useful when recognition fails). It can be cancelled before saving.

Deleting a finger

Delete finger removes that finger and its samples. Not undoable. The code still exists; with no fingerprints left it cannot identify the user at the machine.

Limits and messages

MessageMeaning
The code is not a fingerprint codeOnly FINGERPRINT codes support enrolment.
The code already has the maximum number of fingerprintsNo room for more fingers on that code.
No valid fingerprint receivedThe capture was unreadable: clean the sensor and repeat.
The fingerprint is already enrolledThat fingerprint exists (on this code or another).
Not available in bulk

Fingerprints cannot be loaded in bulk: they are always captured with the reader.
