To add fingerprints, do the following:

  1. On the settings panel of the BioSmart2 object, click the Control fingerprints button.
  2. Find a user by the ID or surname by clicking the Find button (1).
  3. Select the user (2) and click the Add fingerprint button (3).
  4. Select an available fingerprint reader and click the Select reader button (1-2).
  5. A dialog box showing fingerprint reading status opens.
  6. Put a finger on the reader and hold it until you hear a beep. When reading of the fingerprint is finished, a number of fingerprints read is displayed in the Fingerprint reading dialog box. A dialog box instructing to put the finger to the reader again opens.

  7. Put the same finger on the reader and hold it until you hear a beep. Click Yes in the opened dialog box to save fingerprints or No to cancel input.

    Two copies of the same fingerprint, i.e. a comparison pair, are read per one cycle (steps 6-7). A Biosmart controller allows 5 comparison pairs per user.


  8. The number of fingerprints added for the selected user will be displayed in the Control fingerprints box.

  9. Add fingerprints for all required users.

    To delete fingerprints, select the user in the box and click the Delete fingerprints button.

  10. Write the VMS data to controller (see Writing the VMS data to controller). If the Send VMS data dynamically checkbox is set, then there is no need to perform this action.

For correct user identification it is required to fill the Object code and the Card fields in the Visitor Management System interface module (see Adding user access cards using a reader).

Fingerprints are now added to the system.
