  Veri-Series Setup Guide  © Copyright 2005 Bioscrypt Inc.  All rights reserved.  Document #430-00111-18 8 The Veri-Series Product Line  The Veri-Series fingerprint readers are used in access control and other related fields.  There are a variety of features common to the various products, but there are differences as well, as described below.  For more on the operational differences between the products please see Basic Operation on page 30.  Common Features The various products in the Veri-Series line have some features in common such as both RS-232 and RS-485 serial communications protocol support for connection to a PC, Wiegand input and output protocol support for connection to access control equipment, a wide power input range (9-24 Volts DC) except for the V-Smart (9-12 Volts DC) and V-Station (12.5-24 Volts DC), and a requirement for earth ground connection to dissipate static electricity (ESD).  Product Specific Differences V-Prox™: The V-Prox has a built-in HID proximity card reader that negates the need for external Wiegand input, and provides one-to-one fingerprint authentication.  The V-Prox is capable of storing up to 4000 fingerprint templates (a “template” is a mathematical model of the fingerprint that is generated during enrollment).  The device can be mounted on door Mullion or single-gang electrical box. V-Flex™: The V-Flex has all the capabilities and features of the V-Prox described above except that there is no built-in HID proximity card reader.  Therefore the V-Flex requires an external Wiegand input signal.  The V-Flex is designed for
  Veri-Series Setup Guide  © Copyright 2005 Bioscrypt Inc.  All rights reserved.  Document #430-00111-18 9 retrofit applications and for applications where a card technology other than HID is desired. V-Pass™: The V-Pass provides one-to-many fingerprint identification for small user populations (the system is optimized for user populations up to 100, but can be used for populations up to 200).  The V-Pass provides fingerprint only identification – no cards or PINs are required to use the system.  The V-Pass is also small enough to be mounted on a door mullion or a single-gang electrical box. V-Smart™: The V-Smart supports one-to-one fingerprint authentication by means of an industry standard MIFARE®-compatible or iCLASS™ contactless smart card reader.  The fingerprint template is stored on the smart card, not on the reader, so the user population is unlimited – simply issue a smart card to each employee. V-Station™: The newest addition to the Veri-Series product line, the V-Station contains a backlit LCD display and keypad, enabling template management and unit configuration directly from the unit; a PC is not required.  Variations of this product are offered with an HID proximity card reader, a Smartcard reader (MIFARE or iCLASS), or as a searching unit.  Also, this is the first product to offer Ethernet support.  It is probably the most versatile product in the Veri-Series.     MIFARE® is a registered trademark of Philips Semiconductors iCLASS™ is a trademark of HID Corporation

  Veri-Series Setup Guide  © Copyright 2005 Bioscrypt Inc.  All rights reserved.  Document #430-00111-18 14  Use one pair (e.g. blue/white and white/blue) for RS-485 connections.  Connect readers identically at each reader (e.g. blue/white on Cat5 to RS-485 (-) on pigtail/Weidmuller Connector and white/blue on Cat5 to RS-485 (+) on pigtail/Weidmuller Connector). 5. [RS-485 network only]: At converter, jumper TD(A) with RD(A) and TD(B) with RD(B).  Connect Blue/white from Cat5 to either of A terminals and White/blue from Cat5 to either of B terminals.  Make certain to connect power correctly.  6. [RS-485 network only]: RS-485 supports distances up to 4,000 feet (1,200 meters) and/or 31 readers.  To extend these limitations, contact Bioscrypt Technical Support.  Typically no end-of-line termination is required unless the total run exceeds 2,000 feet.

  Veri-Series Setup Guide  © Copyright 2005 Bioscrypt Inc.  All rights reserved.  Document #430-00111-18 15 7. [RS-485 network only]: Set up network using 9600 baud rate.  Only increase this data rate after the system is operating properly at 9600. 8. [Ethernet network only]: Typically a star network topology is used with a network switch or hub, but a bus topology may be used.  Be sure to connect all devices using straight-thru (as apposed to cross-over) cables.  The exception to this is when connecting a single device directly to the computer Ethernet adaptor.   9. [Ethernet network only]: Up to 254 readers can reside on a single Ethernet bus, although repeaters may be required to boost the signal over longer distances.  The V-Station supports 10base-T Ethernet (10 Mbps)*.  A 10 Mbps Ethernet network supports distances up to 100 meters (328 ft.) between readers (2,500m with repeaters). Bioscrypt recommends isolating your network of readers from computers (other than the admin PC) and other devices to maximize security.  A firewall is highly recommended if the network will include other devices or PCs.  For obvious reasons, it is not a good idea to expose your network of readers to the outside world (i.e., the Internet).         *Ethernet communication is supported in firmware versions 7.10 and higher.  VeriAdmin 5.10 or higher is required for administration over Ethernet.

Select the serial (COM) port(s) you intend to use or Ethernet and click OK.  It is recommended that you check “Auto”.
  Veri-Series Setup Guide  © Copyright 2005 Bioscrypt Inc.  All rights reserved.  Document #430-00111-18 18 b. This will bring you to the Network Configuration Manager dialog.  First click on the Comm port or Ethernet within the network tree which you have connected the unit to (the   or   icon).  Then click on the “Add Unit” button (lower left).
  Veri-Series Setup Guide  © Copyright 2005 Bioscrypt Inc.  All rights reserved.  Document #430-00111-18 19 c. VeriAdmin should establish communication with the unit.  The Unit Status field should indicate ONLINE, you may hear the unit beep, and other fields on the right side should populate.  If you are connecting via Ethernet, you must first assign the unit an IP address from the unit’s keypad and then type in the address under Ethernet Settings and click the Refresh button. d. If VeriAdmin shows NOT RESPONDING, check the connections and then press the Refresh button to try again. e. You may assign the unit a name (default is “New Bioscrypt Unit”) if desired.    f. The network tree shown on the left will show a small icon representing the current unit  , just below the   icon under the port you selected.  Double-click on this icon to open the Unit Parameters dialog.
  Veri-Series Setup Guide  © Copyright 2005 Bioscrypt Inc.  All rights reserved.  Document #430-00111-18 20   g. Change desired parameters.  Typical changes are: i. Communication Tab: Network ID (default is 0, but each unit must have a unique ID number such as 1, 2, 3, 4, etc.) ii. Wiegand Tab: Wiegand parameters NOTE: We do not recommend changing the Aux. port Baud rate at this time.  4. Repeat steps 2-4 (skipping 3a) for the next reader until all readers are configured.
  Veri-Series Setup Guide  © Copyright 2005 Bioscrypt Inc.  All rights reserved.  Document #430-00111-18 21 5. If placing units on a RS-485 network, you will also need to set up the computer for RS-485 communications. a. Connect the RS-232/RS-485 converter to the PC’s COM port (must support Send Data – a means of automatically sensing data sent from the RS-232 port – we suggest the B&B Electronics, www.bb-elec.com, model 485TBLED or equivalent). b. Run category 5 rated cable from the converter to the first reader in the daisy chain.  6. V-Smart considerations a. The V-Smart does not require an RS-485 network.  There is no need to distribute templates because the templates are carried by the users in the cards.   b. One security aspect of the V-Smart is that a site key is used to secure the information on the smart card.  If a card is presented to the V-Smart it uses the programmed site key to unlock the data from the card.  The V-Smart is shipped with a default site key (a blank field).  If the programmed site key does not unlock the data from the card, the user cannot verify their fingerprint.  This provides system administrators with a means to further protect their facilities from unauthorized access.   c. If the system administrator wants to periodically change the site key (to further minimize the risk of compromised or lost cards), then this can be done through an RS-485 network or by making the appropriate changes to the reader through the Aux port.
  Veri-Series Setup Guide  © Copyright 2005 Bioscrypt Inc.  All rights reserved.  Document #430-00111-18 22 7. V-Station considerations a. The V-Station does not require configuration via a PC.  Nearly all configuration options can be set using the menus on the unit.  However, it may be more convenient to administer the device from the PC due to the limited size of the LCD screen. b. To distribute templates to other V-Stations, you will need to place all V-Stations on a network and administer them via the PC.  Alternatively, templates can be stored on the PC and transferred to each V-Station separately, via the Host, Aux, or Ethernet ports. c. To access some advanced features such as the transaction log, you will need to communicate with the V-Station from the PC.  d. Connecting to a V-Station via Ethernet should be done by a network administrator or one familiar with TCP/IP operations.  The V-Station should be assigned an appropriate IP address or be set to use DHCP*.  Caution should be exercised when manually assigning IP addresses: it should be appropriate for the given network and should not conflict with other devices or PCs on the network.  Bioscrypt recommends isolating all V-Stations on a closed Ethernet network, both for security reasons and to avoid conflicts with other computers and devices on the network.       * DHCP may not be available in some firmware versions.

The readers come disassembled, however, if your reader has previously been assembled then disassemble the reader body and smart card module (for V-Smart only) from the wall plate. a. On V-Smart remove security screw securing smart card module  b. For products other than V-Station, remove security screw securing the Aux. port cover, and remove the Aux. port cover by twisting (see graphics on page 25). c. Remove #4-40 screw securing reader body to wall plate. d. Remove smart card module (on V-Smart only) and reader body by sliding up and pulling away from the wall plate. e. Keep screws and Aux. port cover for re-assembling the device. 2. Define a location.  A good location will have these qualities: a. Comfortable height for finger placement NOTE: If readers need to be mounted above 54” or below 48”, please contact Bioscrypt for available  accessories  to  properly  readjust  the angle of the reader for optimal finger placement. Mounting a reader above or below the recommended height will not be ergonomic  for  the  user  and  will  not  promote good finger placement on the sensor.  b. ADA considerations 48” – 54”
  Veri-Series Setup Guide  © Copyright 2005 Bioscrypt Inc.  All rights reserved.  Document #430-00111-18 24 c. Provide clearance above and below for access d. The access hole in the wall for wiring should be less than 1 ½ inches wide so that wall plate will cover it.  It should be less than 1 ½ inches tall if mounting into dry wall so that there is enough material to hold the anchor.  The recommended size is 1 inch wide by 1 1/8 inches tall to match the opening in the wall plate. e. For V-Smart, the access hole in the wall for wiring should be less than 4 ½ inches wide so that wall plate will cover it.  It should be less than 2 ½ inches tall if mounting into dry wall so that there is enough material to hold the anchor.  The recommended size is 3 ½ inches wide by 2 ½ inches tall. f. For V-Station, the rear of the unit will protrude past the wall plate and into the wall approximately 1 inch (depending on the Weidmuller connectors attached).  The access hole must be exactly the size of the hole in the wall plate (136mm (~5 3/8”) wide by 69mm (~2 ¾”) tall).  It may be helpful to trace the edges of the hole in the wall plate in pencil before cutting. g. Please see pages 26 – 28 for templates for the single-gang and double-gang mounting plates.  These templates are dimensioned in millimeters (mm). 3. Make pigtail (or Weidmuller for V-Station) wiring connections to power, Wiegand or other connections prior to mounting wall plate. 4. For the V-Smart, feed pigtail cable from Smart Card Module through hole in wall plate from the front and connect to pigtail cable already wired in wall cutout. 5. For the V-Smart, connect Smart Card Module to wall plate. Line up four tabs, push forward and then down.  Secure smart card module with the security screw at the bottom.

Choose the security level, 0 – 6 (0 = none, 1 = very high, 2 = high, … 5 = very low, 6 = Password Only).  You may press   for the default (3). i. Choose the admin level 0 – 2 (0 = user, 1 = enroller, 2 = full admin).  You may press   for the default (user). j. Enter a password for the template, if desired, or   for none. k. If the unit is a V-Station MIFARE or V-Station iCLASS, the next menu will ask if you would like to save the template to the unit (1) or to a smart card (2).  If saving to a smart card, you will need to enter the current site key (it must be numeric, and is set using VeriAdmin) and then present an appropriate fresh or blank smart card. l. Finally, you may elect to enroll an alternate finger with the same ID.  Press 1 for  yes or 2 for no  3. Verification is as simple as:  a. Present the card to reader (unless using a V-Pass in which case, skip to b) or enter your ID number at the keypad if using a V-Station (when in idle mode). b. When the light turns yellow place the finger on sensor in same position as when it was enrolled and hold.  Use the RidgeLock to position your fingerprint on the sensor.  This will help to generate consistent finger placement.  The ridge should fit comfortably in the first crease of your finger. Verification is the process of comparing a live fingerprint scan to the fingerprint data stored during enrollment.

When the light turns off, remove the finger and the door lock will release if the verification was successful (reader will indicate green for success or red for failure).  4. Cleaning and care of the sensor The fingerprint sensor is a solid-state device designed to provide years of trouble-free service.  Although there is little to do in terms of maintenance, a few basics in caring for the sensor will help to ensure a high level of performance over the life of the sensor. Oily deposits from your finger accumulate on the surface of the fingerprint sensor after repeated use.  These deposits can degrade the performance of the system.  Cleaning can be done regularly but is only required when a significant amount of residue builds up on the sensor. To clean the sensor, use a clean, soft cloth dipped in isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol.  Use a sweeping motion to remove deposits from the sensor.  Do not use a soiled cloth or any abrasive brushes, pads or detergents.

Document #430-00111-18 36 Bioscrypt One Year Limited Warranty Policy  Bioscrypt warrants to the original consumer purchaser (“Customer”) that new Bioscrypt products will be free from defects in material and workmanship for one year from the date the product was shipped from Bioscrypt.  For replacement products the warranty on the replacement unit is the remainder of the warranty on the original product or ninety (90) days, whichever is longer.  The Customer is responsible for making any claims for shipment damage (evident or concealed) with the freight carrier.  Bioscrypt must be notified within thirty days of shipment of incorrect materials.  If a defect is discovered, Bioscrypt's sole obligation shall be to repair or replace the Bioscrypt product(s) at its sole discretion at no charge, provided it is returned to Bioscrypt during the warranty period and is shipped freight and insurance prepaid.  Merchandise must be properly packaged to prevent damage during shipping.  Before returning a Bioscrypt product, contact Bioscrypt Technical Service to obtain a Return Material Authorization (RMA) number.  No product may be returned whether in warranty or out of warranty without first obtaining approval from Bioscrypt.  The model number, invoice number, and serial number may be required for warranty service.  This warranty shall not apply to any product or any part of a product, which in the judgment of Bioscrypt, has been subjected to misuse, negligence, alteration, accident, improper maintenance, or damage by excessive physical or electrical stresses.  Tampering, such as opening the housing of a biometric reader or replacing parts will void this warranty.  The warranty is void if the serial number of the Bioscrypt product has been
  Veri-Series Setup Guide  © Copyright 2005 Bioscrypt Inc.  All rights reserved.  Document #430-00111-18 37 defaced, altered, or removed or if the product has been modified.  Repair and replacement parts will be furnished on an exchange basis and may be either reconditioned or new.  All replaced parts or products become the property of Bioscrypt.  This warranty may also be voided for failure to comply with Bioscrypt’s return policy.  The warranty is not applicable to: • Abnormal wear and tear • Damage caused during installation • Damage caused by the equipment or system with which the biometric reader is used • Damage caused by modification or repairs not made or authorized by Bioscrypt • Damage caused by improper packaging • Damage caused by lack of ESD protection • Merchandise that is determined to be stolen  All Veri-Series units have an operating temperature range of 0°-60° Celsius (32°-140° Fahrenheit). In addition, the Veri-Series product line has a relative humidity operating range of 0-95% non-condensing.  Any device used outside that temperature or humidity range requires an enclosure with thermal or humidity control that can maintain a consistent environment within the stated operating ranges.  The newest Bioscrypt Veri-Series products are designed to be weather resistant but no sensor technology exists today that can work in all weather environments. If a Bioscrypt Veri-Series product is not used in a completely indoor environment, then a protective enclosure is required to shield the unit from moisture, dust, other contaminants and temperatures outside the stated operating
  Veri-Series Setup Guide  © Copyright 2005 Bioscrypt Inc.  All rights reserved.  Document #430-00111-18 38 range.  Product failures resulting from exposure to these conditions are not covered under the product warranty.    For outdoor installations, Bioscrypt does offer an enclosure to protect the device from exposure to moisture, dust, other contaminants and temperatures outside stated operating range. To maintain the Bioscrypt warranty, the Veri-Series unit must be installed in a Bioscrypt certified outdoor enclosure. When used properly, this enclosure will protect Veri-Series devices in most environments, but not all.  The Customer is responsible for determining whether the offered enclosure will appropriately shield Veri-Series devices in their specific installation.  Product failures resulting from exposure to moisture, dust, other contaminants and temperatures outside stated operating range, even if an enclosure is used, are not covered under the product warranty.  This warranty is exclusive and in lieu of all others, whether oral or written, expressed or implied.  Bioscrypt specifically disclaims any and all implied warranties, including without limitation, warranties of merchantability and fitness for any particular purpose. No Bioscrypt dealer, agent, or employee is authorized to make any modification, extension or addition to this warranty.
