Window Logon via FingerPrint Authentication

If required, you are also able to use FingerPrint authentication in place of

the usual Windows logon process using your username and password.

This method is specially useful where there are many users using the same

computer as it removes the need for actual user selection when the system

is started.

FingerPrint Authentication Procedure

1. Start up the computer.
2. At the Logon Authorization screen, choose any of the enrolled fingers

and swipe the FingerPrint on the sensor - If the authentication process

is successful, the user will automatically be logged into Windows.

FingerPrint Power-on Security

General

The FingerPrint authentication system can be used to replace the keyboard

based password authentication system that is used when the computer is

turned on.
If you do not want to use the FingerPrint authentication system for

password authentication when the computer is turned on, but instead prefer

to use the keyboard entry method instead, simply press the BkSP

(backspace) key or the ESC/Rotation button when the FingerPrint Power-

on Security screen is displayed. Using this process will switch the

password input screen across to the keyboard based entry screen.

If the FingerPrint authentication process fails you will need to log into

Windows using the appropriate username and password. In addition, you

should use this manual login process if Finger Print authentication fails for

three consecutive tries - a warning message will be displayed when

authentication is not normal or is not successful within a fixed duration.
