I Introduction
Operation Principle
Fingerprint processing includes two parts: fingerprint enrollment and fingerprint matching (the
matching can be 1:1 or 1: N).
When enrolling, user needs to enter the finger two times. The system will process the two time
finger images, generate a template of the finger based on processing results and store the template.
When matching, user enters the finger through optical sensor and system will generate a template of the
finger and compare it with templates of the finger library. For 1:1 matching, system will compare the
live finger with specific template designated in the Module; for 1: N matching, or searching, system will
search the whole finger library for the matching finger. In both circumstances, system will return the
matching result, success or failure.

IV System Resources
use. To address demands of different customer, Module system provides abundant resources at users
4.1 Notepad
The system sets aside a 512-bytes memory (16 pages* 32 bytes) for user's notepad, where data
requiring power-off protection can be stored. The host can access the page by instructions of
PS_WriteNotepad and PS_ReadNotepad.
Note: when write on one page of the pad, the entire 32 bytes will be written in wholly covering the
original contents.
4.2 Buffer
There are an image buffer and two 512-byte-character-file buffer within the RAM space of the
module. Users can read & write any of the buffers by instructions.
Note: Contents of the above buffers will be lost at power-off.
4.2.1 Image buffer
ImageBuffer serves for image storage and the image format is 256*288 pixels.
When transferring through UART, to quicken speed, only the upper 4 bits of the pixel is transferred
(that is 16 grey degrees). And two adjacent pixels of the same row will form a byte before the
transferring. When uploaded to PC, the 16-grey-degree image will be extended to 256-grey-degree
format. That's 8-bit BMP format.
4.2.2 Character file buffer
Character file buffer, CharBuffer1, CharBuffer2, can be used to store both character file and
template file.
4.3 Fingerprint Library
System sets aside a certain space within Flash for fingerprint template storage, that's fingerprint
library. Contents of the library remain at power off.
Capacity of the library changes with the capacity of Flash, system will recognize the latter
automatically. Fingerprint template's storage in Flash is in sequential order. Assume the fingerprint
capacity N, then the serial number of template in library is 0, 1, 2, 3……N-2, N-1. User can only access
library by template number.
4.4 System Configuration Parameter
To facilitate users developing, Module opens part system parameters for use. And the basic
instructions are SetSysPara & ReadSysPara. Both instructions take Parameter Number as parameter.
- 7 -
When upper computer sends command to modify parameter, Module first responses with original
configurations, then performs the parameter modification and writes configuration record into Flash. At
the next startup, system will run with the new configurations.
4.4.1 Baud rate control (Parameter Number: 4)
The Parameter controls the UART communication speed of the Module. Its value is an integer N,
N= [1, 12]. Corresponding baud rate is 9600*N bps.
4.4.2 Security Level (Parameter Number: 5)
The Parameter controls the matching threshold value of fingerprint searching and matching.
Security level is divided into 5 grades, and corresponding value is 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. At level 1, FAR is the
highest and FRR is the lowest; however at level 5, FAR is the lowest and FRR is the highest.
4.4.3 Data package length (Parameter Number: 6)
The parameter decides the max length of the transferring data package when communicating with
upper computer. Its value is 0, 1, 2, 3, corresponding to 32 bytes, 64 bytes, 128 bytes, 256 bytes
respectively.
4.5 System status register
System status register indicates the current operation status of the Module. Its length is 1 word, and
can be read via instruction ReadSysPara. Definition of the register is as follows:
Bit Num 15 4 3 2 1 0
Description Reserved ImgBufStat PWD Pass Busy
Note:
- Busy:1 bit. 1: system is executing commands; 0: system is free;
- Pass:1 bit. 1: find the matching finger; 0: wrong finger;
- PWD:1 bit. 1: Verified devices handshaking password.
- ImgBufStat:1 bit. 1: image buffer contains valid image.
4.6 Module password
The default is 0x00000000,If the default password is not modified;If be modified through UART
communication or password, the first instruction is the host computer and the communication module must be
verify the password, only the password verification through, module can enter the normal working state, receiving
other instructions(That is, the serial communication must first perform a handshake signal processing).
Password modification, new password stored in Flash, power cuts are still preserved(The modified password
cannot be acquired through communication instructions, such as accidentally forgetting the modules cannot
communicate, please kindly with).
4.7 Module address
Each module has an identifying address. When communicating with upper computer, each
instruction/data is transferred in data package form, which contains the address item. Module system
only responds to data package whose address item value is the same with its identifying address.
The address length is 4 bytes, and its default factory value is 0xFFFFFFFF. User may modify the
address via instruction SetAdder. The new modified address remains at power off.

5.2 Check and acknowledgement of data package
Note: Commands shall only be sent from upper computer to the Module, and the Module
acknowledges the commands.
Upon receipt of commands, Module will report the commands execution status and results to upper
computer through acknowledge packet. Acknowledge packet has parameters and may also have
following data packet. Upper computer can't ascertain Module's package receiving status or command
execution results unless through acknowledge packet sent from Module. Acknowledge packet includes 1
byte confirmation code and maybe also the returned parameter.

1. The fingerprint wait time is to wait the longest finger presses each image acquisition, if there is no finger
presses on this parameter setting time, is that there is no finger. The domain values range from 1 to 255, the
higher the value, the more time. The 70 series, usually taken as 54 (36H), corresponding to a time of 3.5 seconds,
the other time intervals are listed in the following table:

2. Number of times for pressing the fingerprint is to Press the number of fingers to confirm the registration
fingerprint, only the value of 2 or 3. Value of 2 represents the two press fingerprint recognition, value of 3
represents the 3 press fingerprint recognition.
3. Number of times for pressing the fingerprint is 2, the command will gather two fingerprint to register as a
template, if collect the fingerprint success for the first time will sending a response code 56H
(PS_AUTOLOGIN_OK1), then continue the second fingerprint process. Number of times for pressing the
fingerprint is 3, the command will gather three fingerprint to register as a template, if collect the fingerprint
success for the first time will sending a response code 56H (PS_AUTOLOGIN_OK1), and if collect the
fingerprint success for the second time will sending a response code 57H (PS_AUTOLOGIN_OK2), then
continue the third fingerprint process.
4. Repeated registration mark is set whether to allow repeated registration. 0 representative does not allow
duplicate registration, i.e. if the current registration finger has been registered in the fingerprint database,
then this will no longer register. 1 representative allows repeated registration, namely the current registration
finger regardless of the fingerprint database whether registered, the registration of all.
