Chapter 1. Introduction
iA-thenticateÂŽ is a hardware and software system for testing the authenticity of travel and ID
documents and for checking the identity of document owners.
Basic document testing includes verifying the checksum digits in a document’s machine-readable
zone (MRZ), checking its expiration date, and confirming the proper use of IR-absorbent (B900)
ink.
With optional software and hardware, the system can test documents in additional ways and also
check a document owner’s identity. For example:
•
With ID-PassportÂŽ software, the system can verify additional features such as UV patterns
and security laminate.
•
With ID-License™ and DL-Alert™ software and a magnetic stripe and bar code reader, the
system can read and verify driver’s licenses and non-driver IDs.
•
With TextWatchÂŽ software, the system can compare information read from the document
against a custom database of names, stolen document numbers, or other important data.
•
With an integrated smart card reader, the system can read, verify, and cross-check
information from an embedded smart chip.
Introduction
PUB-00052-B-00

Administrator’s Guide
BorderGuard and ID-Guard
The system includes a BorderGuardÂŽ or ID-GuardÂŽ unit and a PC running iA-thenticate software.
BorderGuard
BorderGuard processes passport-size documents as well as smaller wallet-size cards. It captures
document images using a color camera and often uses an attached reader to read magnetic
stripes (magstripes) and two-dimensional (2D) bar codes. Some units have an integrated smartcard reader for reading chips embedded in the front and back pages (covers) of documents.
Note:
The BorderGuard unit has also been called an iA-thenticate unit. Your unit may have
either label.
Note:
12
Some older BorderGuard units have a monochrome camera.

ID-Guard/J1000
ID-Guard/J1000 processes standard wallet-size cards such as driver’s licenses and IDs. It
captures document images using a color camera, and has an integrated magstripe reader. It
can also read 2D bar codes directly from the captured document images without additional
hardware.

Chapter 2. Setting Up a Color BorderGuard Unit
This chapter explains how to set up your iA-thenticate system if you have a BorderGuard (iAthenticate) unit with a color camera. This includes:
•
Color BorderGuard units, which have a text panel above the document platform
•
Color BorderGuard B4500/5000 units, which have indicator lights instead
Before you proceed with installation, check the Release Notes for new information.
If you are upgrading from a previous version, you may need to follow additional steps. Refer to
the iA-thenticate 5.5 Release Notes for additional information.
Note:
Although setting up this system is similar to setting up a PC, there are important
differences. Follow the instructions in this chapter carefully, or your system may not work
properly.
If you are not experienced in setting up and managing PCs in a networked environment,
you should not attempt to do the setup yourself.

Connecting Hardware and Installing
Drivers
Connect the BorderGuard hardware only after you have installed the software as described in the
previous section.
Connecting Hardware
Each BorderGuard unit ships with a USB cable and a power supply and cord. Some units also
include a standard serial cable.
Note:
The included power supply might not have a power cord suitable for your country. In this
case you must obtain and use a 3-conductor grounded supply cord with a plug cap
suitable for your country. It must have a minimum internal conductor area of 0.75 mm2
and have a standard IEC 320 female connector.
  

1. Restart the PC after installing the software, and log on as an administrator.
2. Plug the BorderGuard power cable into the connector on the back of the Border-Guard unit,
and plug the line cord into a surge-protected power source (100–240 VAC, 47–63 Hz, 170
W).
3. Turn on the power switch on the BorderGuard unit, and wait for the Welcome message to
appear on its text panel.
4. If your unit includes a serial cable, connect it from the serial port on the back of the unit to the
appropriate COM port on your PC.
5. Connect the USB cable from the USB port on the back of the BorderGuard unit to an
available USB 2.0 port (high-speed, 480 Mbps) on your PC. When you do this, Windows
automatically starts installing drivers.
Installing Drivers
Driver installation varies with the version of Windows and the type of BorderGuard unit. When the
unit is connected and powered on, the drivers should install automatically. If Windows indicates
that there was a problem with the installation, follow the problem-solving instructions in the
Drivers Do Not Install As Expected section of Appendix B for color BorderGuard units.

document (on the glass).
2. Process a smart card document that has its chip in the back cover side of the document (on
the platform in front of the glass).
3. Check the smart card test results for both documents.
If iA-Examiner displays smart card test results for both documents, the unit is operating correctly.
If iA-Examiner fails to recognize the smart card, follow the instructions for fixing the problem in
Repairing the OmniKey Registration Settings on page 172.
To test the smart card reader using the OMNIKEY applet:
1. In Control Panel, run the OMNIKEY 55x3 Driver Applet.
2. Right-click in the title bar of the applet and select Antenna Configuration.
3. On the Antenna tab, verify that Enable Multi-Antenna Mode is checked.

2. If you are using iA-DataPort, configure it to use the reader:
a. If you have already followed step 1 to configure iA-Examiner, find the reader’s port
number by going back to System Configuration Page 1 and noting the Comm Port
Number assigned to the E-Seek reader. Then skip to step e.
b. Otherwise, with the system running, open the Device Manager. (Right-click My
Computer, choose Manage, and click Device Manager.)
c. Expand the Ports (COM & LPT) item so you can see any entries under it. The list may
already contain an entry named USB Serial Port. In the next step an additional entry
named USB Serial Port will appear with a different COM number.
d. Plug the reader’s USB cable into an available USB port. As you do, watch for the new
USB Serial Port entry to appear. Note the COM number assigned to the new entry. For
example, it might be listed as USB Serial Port (COM4).
e. Start iA-DataPort by double-clicking its icon on the desktop or by selecting
Start>Programs>iA-thenticate>iA-DataPort.
f. Choose Settings>Comm Ports Settings.

Installing a Flatbed Scanner
The iA-thenticate system is designed to work with any TWAIN-compliant USB flatbed scanner. L1 has tested and qualified two models: Canon CanoScan LiDE 500F and Epson Perfection 3490
Photo.
   
Note:
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for installing the scanner software and hardware.
To configure the system to use the scanner:
1. Run iA-Examiner (Start>Programs>iA-thenticate>iA-Examiner). Click Mgmt Funcs, and
then System Config.
2. On System Configuration Page 1, under Peripherals, select Scanner.
3. From the drop-down list, select the scanner you have installed. If you see two similar entries
for your scanner, select the one that does not start with WIA.
Note:
Be careful not to select the iA-thenticate camera, listed as OVT SuperCam.
Note:
If your scanner does not appear in the list, make sure it is properly installed. Test it using
the software provided by the manufacturer.
4. For Pixel Type, select either Color or Grayscale to choose the type of image you want to
scan, display, and store. Because of JPEG compression, color images take only slightly more
disk space than grayscale.
5. For Resolution, select a value that provides the readability and detail you need. The default
value of 100 dpi gives decent readability, small files, and quick scanning. Higher resolutions
give better detail but also larger files and slower scans. The system stores scans in JPEG
format using the Image Quality setting specified under Saving Data. Here are some sample
file sizes for an 8.5x11-inch document with Image Quality set to Medium:

6. For T/O (timeout), use the default value of 60 seconds unless you have a reason to change it.
This is the amount of time the system will wait for a scan to finish before it cancels the scan.
7. Select Crop Scanned Image unless you always want to display and save the scanner’s
entire platform area.
Note:
The automatic cropping option does not currently work properly with the Canon model.
8. Under Saving Data, be sure to select Save Document Images and Visible, or the scanned
images will not be saved. Whether you select Convert Images to JPEG or not, scanned
images are always saved as JPEGs using the Image Quality setting.
9. Click Apply. Restart iA-Examiner to put the changes into effect.
Note:
If you see an error message or unexpected behavior when using the scanner, refer to the
problem-solving section in Appendix B.
You can also change the scanned document types and how they are grouped, if necessary.
When scanning a document, the operator sees these types displayed on the screen and chooses
one:
You can change the name above each group of buttons, the number of buttons in each group,
and the document type that appears on each button.
This procedure requires you to directly edit an important configuration file. Do not proceed unless
you are comfortable editing such files. Make no changes other than to the indicated text, and be
sure to keep all quotation marks as they are.

Setting Options for Saving Images and
logs
You can configure the system to save captured document images as well as text logs containing
document information and test results. You may want to save these files for various reasons
related to security, operations, and record-keeping.
Two Ways to Save Images and Logs
You can set options for saving images and logs here in iA-Administrator or in iA-Examiner. The
two ways are independent of each other, and you can use either one.
•
If you use iA-Examiner to process documents, it’s generally easiest to use iA-Examiner to
save images and logs as well. And it offers more options than iA-Administrator.
•
Unless you have a special reason to do so, you should not save images and logs using both
iA-Administrator and iA-Examiner.
The following table compares the two ways:
Using iA-Administrator…
Using iA-Examiner…
You can save images in JPEG (.jpg) format with
several levels of compression, or in uncompressed
Bitmap (.bmp) format.
The same.
You can select the image types you want to save—
any combination of visible, IR, UV, seal, and
tamper.
In addition to the visible, IR, UV, seal, and tamper
images, you can save the ID photo from the visible
image, the ID photo from a 2D bar code, and the ID
photo and fingerprint image from a smart card.
On monochrome BorderGuard systems you can
save grayscale images. On Color BorderGuard,
Color BorderGuard B4500/B5000, and IDGuard/J1000 systems you can save color images,
grayscale images, or both.
On monochrome BorderGuard systems you can
save grayscale images. On Color BorderGuard,
Color BorderGuard B4500/B5000, and IDGuard/J1000 systems you can save only color

Save
Saves color or grayscale images, or both, to
the location specified.
Names each file using the document type
and number (if known), date and time
processed (if needed to make the name
unique), and image type. For example, for a
typical ICAO document:
USA_P_12345678_VC.jpg where USA is
the country code, P is the ICAO document
type, 12345678 is the document number,
and VC is the image type (can be I, S, T, U,
or V, plus C if the image is color).
Set these options to suit your
needs. Be sure the location you
use for saving images has
enough disk space. If the disk
fills up, the system will no
longer operate properly.
To reduce file sizes, use the

Temporary Images and Logs
As the system captures images and creates logs, it holds them in memory while it processes the
document. As explained above, you can have the system preserve these images and logs by
saving them to a disk directory; otherwise they are discarded.
In addition, you can have the system write the images and logs from memory to the work
directory, where they stay only until the next document is processed. Because this takes extra
time, you should not use this option unless you have a reason to do so.

the image is color. Other image types are SCP
for smart card photo and BCP for bar code
photo.
Select this if you want to
save some or all of the
images for later reference.
Color images take a lot of
disk storage space. To
avoid problems, your drive

Save in Subdirectory with
Unit’s Name
Saves each unit’s images in a subdirectory of
the images directory (previous item) rather
than in the images directory itself. The

Using a Networked Database
Examiner saves document data and test results in the BGExaminer.mdb database, located by
default in directory \BorderGuard\Bin on the drive designated for storing data.
If you have several networked iA-thenticate systems, you can save their data in a single database
on a mapped network drive. You can then review the combined data and generate reports from it,
as explained in chapters 3 and 4 of the iA-Examiner User’s Guide.
If you want to review captured images along with the combined data, you can also save the
images from all the units to a common network location.
 .%
Before you decide to use a networked database, you should consider performance and reliability.
•
Saving data on a network takes longer than on a local disk, especially if you save images as
well. Be sure your network is fast enough for your application. Instead of saving
uncompressed Bitmap images, use JPEG compression to reduce file size.
•
A problem with the network or the file server can disrupt your operations.
If a system loses its connection to the database, it tries several times to reconnect, as
specified by the Maximum Database Retry Count (see the table in the Configuring Data
Saving section on page 87). During this time it displays a progress bar and prevents any
operator actions.
If it cannot reconnect, it lets you proceed but displays No database connection in red. As
long as this message appears, the system is not working normally. You should not continue
using it for production work until the connection is restored.
When the network or server problem is resolved, the system reconnects automatically within
10 seconds, the red message disappears, and normal operation resumes.

Configuring the Processing of
Unidentified Documents
*%  9  '  ! 
Note:
For information about creating and using a custom document database, contact
Customer Support.
The system can automatically identify ICAO documents and, with optional document databases,
many non-ICAO documents as well. But what should happen if the operator processes a
document that the system cannot automatically identify?
If you have an optional document database such as ID-License or Global-ID, iA-Examiner can
display selection screens that let the operator manually identify the document, or iA-Examiner can
process every unidentified document in a predetermined way.
The following table explains the four available options. In most cases, either the first or last option
is most suitable:
•
If you have an optional document database such as ID-License:
- Use the first option (Go to the document selection screen) for the most flexibility in
identifying and testing documents.
- Use the last option (Process as a nonstandard document) if you usually want to simply
capture unidentified documents without trying to identify or test them.
•

If you do not have an optional document database, always use the last option (process as a
nonstandard document).

Consider this option if:
• You have an optional document

• You have a custom document
database for a certain

You must make a choice for

type. To use this, you must know
the document’s type code—for
example, USA_AL_DL01 for a
USA Alabama (AL) driver’s

Consider this option if most of the

The operator can still use the

retest a document as a different
type.

For an unidentified document,

As explained under Configuring Data Saving (page 87), iA-Examiner can save document
information and test results in the document-results database.
In addition, iA-Examiner can create XML log files containing document information and test
results. In general, these log files are useful only if you have custom software that reads
information from them as they are created. If you have no specific use for such files, you should
leave all of the following Doc Log options deselected.
You can preserve the final document logs if you like. All the others are temporary files,
overwritten with each new document.

Chapter 9. Using iA-DataPort
iA-thenticate includes a data transmission feature called iA-DataPort™. It can route data captured
from a document’s MRZ, magstripe, and 2D bar code to:
•
A program running on the iA-thenticate PC
•
Another PC through a standard serial port
•
A virtual serial port (using third-party software)
Your own software can then process and store the data to meet your needs.
Note:
At this time iA-DataPort does not work with ID-GUARD or with smart card units.

Preparing to Use iA-DataPort
Choosing Where to Send Data
iA-DataPort can send captured data to a program, a standard serial port, or a virtual port.
Sending Data to a Program
If you want to send data to a program running on the iA-thenticate PC, select the Simulated
Keyboard option and choose related options as explained in the Configuring General Settings
section on page 139.
Sending Data through a Serial Port
If you want to send data to another PC through a standard serial port, you need:
•
An available serial port on your iA-thenticate PC
•
An available serial port on the other PC
•
A null-modem serial cable
  #
1. Attach the null-modem cable between the serial ports on the iA-thenticate PC and the other
PC.
2. Select the Communications Port option as explained Configuring General Settings section
on page 139. By default, iA-DataPort sends data through the COM 1 port. If your
BorderGuard unit is already using this port, you must change the port settings accordingly.
Note:
134
On a BorderGuard unit with built-in PC, COM 1 is the lower serial connector.
PUB-00052-B-00
Using iA-DataPort
Administrator’s Guide
Sending Data through a Virtual Port
Sending data through a virtual serial port allows another program running on the iA-thenticate PC
to receive and process the data as if it were coming in through a standard serial port.
 $ #
1. Install and configure appropriate third-party software for setting up a virtual serial port on your
iA-thenticate PC.
2. Select the Communications Port option as explained Configuring General Settings section
on page 139.
Using the Optional Keyboard Filter
Note:
If you use the E-Seek or Intelli-Check reader, you do not need this filter.
If you want to transmit data from a magstripe reader other than the E-Seek or Intelli-Check
combined magstripe and bar code reader, you may want to install and use the optional keyboard
filter provided with iA-DataPort.
A magstripe reader sends data as if it were typed on a keyboard. Depending on how you use
your unit, magstripe and keyboard data can sometimes be sent to the wrong program. The
keyboard filter can prevent this problem by recognizing magstripe data and sending it to iADataPort, no matter which other programs are running.
After installing the filter, you can enable or disable it anytime as explained on page 139.

specify that length under Max Len. iA-DataPort then truncates longer fields to this length. If
you don’t want a long field truncated, leave Max Len blank.
c. If you want the field to be at least a certain length when iA-DataPort sends it:
– Under Min Len, specify the minimum number of characters the field should contain.
– Under Pad Character, type the character you want to use to fill out a short field to the
minimum length. The default is a space.
If you don’t want the field padded to any minimum length, leave Min Len blank or enter 0
(zero).
d. If you want all spaces in the field removed, select Delete Spaces. For example, VAN LIND
would become VANLIND.
e. Under Termination Char, specify the character to insert immediately after a variablelength field to mark its end. You can select various untypeable characters (such as NUL)
from the drop-down list, or you can enter any typeable character (such as >) in the second
box.
Finally, specify the Date Format you want to use for sending dates. This determines the daymonth-year order, the punctuation used between elements, the month format (number or
abbreviation), and the year format (2 or 4 digits). For example, for August 14, 2003:
This date format...
Sends this data...
mm/dd/yy

Notes: One field you can select is Pass/Fail. This is not MRZ data but an extra field for sending
overall test results. Select this to send P when a document passes all tests, E when it
fails only the expiration test, or F when it fails any other test.
• Setting Max Len and Min Len to the same number results in a fixed-length field.
• If you select Delete Spaces, iA-DataPort removes the embedded spaces before
adjusting the field’s length using the Max Len and Min Len settings.

documents
iA-Examiner: user functions
iA-thenticate Administrators
Technical administrators,
security managers, and
operations managers
iA-Examiner: user and
management functions
iA-Administrator
All Users startup folder
(C:\Documents and Settings\
All Users\Start Menu\
Programs\Startup)

Scanning Produces Unexpected Behavior
174
If this happens...
The problem may be:
To solve the problem:
Images display incorrectly and
the system fails to identify
documents. The visible image
may look like an IR image.
This problem is usually due to
an underpowered PC,
especially if running a laptop
on batteries.
Each ID-Guard/J1000 unit
ships with a Y-shaped USB
cable for use with computers
that do not supply adequate
power through a single USB
port. For additional power,
plug the extra USB connector
into a second USB 2.0 port on
the computer.
You may be also able to
increase laptop power
changing the default battery
setting for higher performance.
Additionally, you may be able
to resolve the problem by
adjusting the capture timing for
the ID-Guard/J1000 unit (the
default value for Capture
Delay is 100). In iAAdministrator, click the
Configurations tab. Change
the Capture Delay to 200 and
reboot the PC. If the problem
persists, increase the value in
increments of 100, restarting
each time, until the problem
stops.
ID-Guard/J1000 system fails
to read bar codes after
installation.
Previous version of Regula
software was not properly
uninstalled before installing

Solving Problems
Administrator’s Guide
Appendix C. Periodic Maintenance
Follow these procedures to keep your BorderGuard or ID-Guard unit working accurately and
efficiently.
Periodic Maintenance
PUB-00052-B-00
181
Cleaning the Glass Platform
During normal use, the glass document platform becomes dusty and smudged with fingerprints. It
can also become sticky with adhesives from the documents you process.
To keep the unit working properly, you must keep the glass clean. You should clean the glass
routinely at least once a week, and immediately if it becomes sticky.
We strongly recommend using pre-moistened optical wipes to clean the glass. They are effective,
safe, convenient, and inexpensive.
Warnings:
Never spray liquid onto the glass or any other part of the unit.
Never use an abrasive cleaner or pad of any kind.
Use only wipes that are specifically for cleaning optical surfaces.
 #
•
Gently wipe the glass with a pre-moistened optical wipe.
As an alternative, you can use a clean, soft, lint-free cloth slightly moistened with denatured
alcohol or a nonabrasive glass cleaner.
182
PUB-00052-B-00
Periodic Maintenance
Cleaning the BorderGuard Sensor
Switch
Some BorderGuard units use a mechanical sensor switch to detect an inserted document. Dirt
and bits of paper can slip underneath this switch and interfere with its operation, so that the unit
doesn’t always respond when you place a document on the platform.
About once a month, or whenever a unit has problems responding to a document, you should
check and clean the sensor switch.
  

1. Raise the light shield and locate the sensor switch lever, at the back left corner of the
platform.
2. Gently vacuum the switch area, being careful not to mar the glass.
3. Carefully remove any bits of paper stuck under the lever.
Periodic Maintenance
PUB-00052-B-00
183
Defragmenting the Hard Drive
During normal use, the files and free space on your PC’s hard drive become fragmented. As
fragmentation becomes worse, your system runs less efficiently.
About once a month, you should use Disk Defragmenter to check your hard drive for
fragmentation and to defragment it as necessary. The check takes just a few moments;
defragmentation can take 15 minutes or more.
1    $
1. Log on as an administrator.
2. Run Disk Defragmenter (Start>Programs>Accessories>System Tools>Disk
Defragmenter).
3. Select the C drive and click Analyze.
4. If Disk Analyzer reports that the volume needs defragmenting, click Defragment to proceed.
Note:
Even if Disk Analyzer reports that the volume does not need defragmenting, you can
defragment it as a preventive measure.
5. If your system has additional drives, check and defragment them in the same way
