Glossary

Administrator

zA special user who are authorized to manage the settings and user information of a device.

Administrators can enroll or delete users and change settings of the device.

1:1 Mode

zIn 1:1 mode, a user should enter his/her user ID first. After then, the user is requested to place a

finger or enter a PIN. In this mode, user’s scanned fingerprint is matched against only one

fingerprint specified by the user ID.

1:N Mode

zIn 1:N mode, a user places his/her finger without entering any ID. Then the device compares the

user’s scanned fingerpint with the whole enrolled fingerprints in its internal database.

Fingerprint Enrollment

zA process of extracting features of a fingerprint image obtained from a fingerprint sensor and

saving them into the internal memory of a device. The fingerprint data is called a fingerprint

template.

Before Start

Basics of fingerprint recognition

What is fingerprint recognition?

zFingerprint is an individual’s own biometric information and does not change throughout his/her life.

Fingerprint recognition is a technology that verifies or identifies an individual using such fingerprint

information.

zFree from the risk of theft or loss, fingerprint recognition technology is being widely used in security

systems replacing PIN or cards.

Process of fingerprint recognitioan

zFingerprint consists of ridges and valleys. Ridge is a flow of protruding skin in a fingerprint while

valley is a hollow between two ridges. Each individual has different pattern of ridges and valleys

and finger recognition makes use of such originality and uniqueness of these patterns.

zFingerprint sensor generates 2-dimentional fingerprint image using different technology. According

to the sensing technology, fingerprint sensors are classified into optical, capacitive, or thermal.

zFingerprint template is a collection of numeric data representing the features of a fingerprint.

Fingerprint templates are saved inside the memory of BioStation and used for identification.

Secure way to protect personal information

zTo avoid privacy concern, Suprema’s fingerprint products do not save fingerprint images itself. It is

impossible to reconstruct a fingerprint image from a fingerprint template which is just numeric data

of the features of a fingerprint.

Before Start

How to place a finger

Select a finger to enroll

zIt is recommended to use an index finger or a middle finger.

zThumb, ring or little finger is relatively more difficult to place in a correct position.

How to place a finger on a sensor

zPlace a finger such that it completely covers the sensor area with maximum contact.

zPlace core part of a fingerprint to the center of a sensor.

People tend to place upper part of a finger.

The core of a fingerprint is a center where the spiral of ridges is dense.

Usually core of fingerprint is the opposite side of the lower part of a nail.

Place a finger such that the bottom end of a nail is located at the center of a sensor.

zIf a finger is placed as in the right picture, only a small area of a finger is captured. So it is

recommended to place a finger as shown in the left picture.

Suprema’s fingerprint products show an outstanding recognition performance regardless of the user’s fingerprint

skin condition or the way of fingerprint positioning. However, following tips are recommended to get more optimal

fingerprint recognition performance.

Before Start

How to place a finger

Tips for different fingerprint conditions

zSuprema’s fingerprint products are designed to scan fingerprint smoothly regardless of the

conditions of a finger skin. However, in case a fingerprint is not read well on the sensor, please

refer to the followings tips.

If a finger is stained with sweat or water, scan after wiping moisture off.

If a finger is covered with dust or impurities, scan after wiping them off.

If a finger is way too dry, place after blowing warm breath on the finger tip.

Tips for fingerprint enrollment

zIn fingerprint recognition, enrollment process is very important. When enrolling a fingerprint, please

try to place a finger correctly with care.

zIn case of low acceptance ratio, the following actions are recommended.

Delete the enrolled fingerprint and re-enroll the finger.

Enroll the same fingerprint additionally.

Try another finger if a finger is not easy to enroll due to scar or worn-out.

zFor the case when an enrolled fingerprint cannot be used due to injury or holding a baggage, it is

recommended to enroll more than two fingers per user.

Finger No zSetting : 1/…/5/None

z1-5 fingers can be enrolled for each ID.

zEnrolling more than two fingers per user can be useful in a case of

injury of a finger.

zFor a user whose fingerprint is weak or worn-out, enrolling the same

finger twice or more can reduce failure rate.

zIf you want to use PIN only instead of fingerprint, select None.

zSetting : None/Last Finger

zDuress is of vital importance in a situation when user is threatened

to open a door by an intruder. If a duress finger is entered, a door

opens normally but the device can send a duress signal to ring an

emergency call or alarm.

zIf you select Last Finger on the durress menu, the last fingerprint

enrolled is assigned as a duress finger. For example, if you enroll

three fingers and select Last Finger for duress, the first and second

fingers are enrolled as normal fingers and the third finger as a

duress finger.

zTo use duress finger, more than two fingerprints should be enrolled,

ie., Finger No. should be more than 2.

zDuress finger should be different from normal finger enrolled in

advance.

FAR refers to the percentage of acceptance by unregisterred

fingerprints. Therefore, the lower the percentage is, the higher the

security level is. However, as the FAR and FRR (False Reject

Rate) are in reverse proportion to each other, the higher security

level will indue bigger FRR, ie., more failure for registerred fingers.

zFor general T&A applications, normal level is recommended.

However, in case of an access control application requiring a

higher security level, it is recommended to apply the security level

as secure or most secure.

case, you can change the fast mode to Fast or Fastest. By doing so, identification speed becomes

faster in sacrifice of a little higher FRR.

zSetting: Weak/Normal/Strict

zQuality level decides the strictness of quality check of the input images. With a strict quality level, the

device may reject a low quality input fingerprint more.

zSetting : Visible/Invisible

zProper enrollment can be induced by showing the image of the entered fingerprint on LCD screen upon

enrollment.

zSetting : 0(min)/1/2/3/4/5/6/7(max)

zSet sensitivity of fingerprint sensor in a capture of a fingerprint. At a high sensitivity level, it is easier

and faster to capture a fingerprint. On the other hand, at a low sensitivity level, the image quality of the

captured fingerprint can be more stable.

zIn normal applications, maximum level is recommended. If the recognition is not satisfactory for wet

fingerprints, reducing sensitivity may solve the problem.

zSetting : 1/2/…/10/…/19/20

zSet standby time for fingerprint enrollment. If a user does not place a finger within the time, a timeout

message appears on the display.

zSetting : Not Use / Use

zShows whether the BioStation is curretnly using the template encryption or not. Encryption can not be

set on the device itself, but should be set using BioAdmin program on PC.
