Diffi

cult to Read Finger

There are five possible causes of this:

ENROLMENT IS NOT PROPERLY DONE

Enrolment is the most important process to ensure that the i-Kiosk 100 captures the
best quality of your fingerprints. Refer to chapter 3 for how to do a good enrolment.

THE LOCATION OF THE I-KIOSK 100 IS NOT CONDUCIVE

The scanner does not work well in bright-lighted area. Cover the scanner a bit if this is
the cause of the difficulty. Shift the location area for a better performance.

FINGER IS NOT PROPERLY PLACED

To get a good read, make sure that your finger’s center points are located at the mid-
dle of the scanner. Adjust the position of your fingerprint as you see it onscreen.

THE SCANNER IS NOT CLEANED OR IT IS SCRATCHED

Check the quality of the scanner. If the scanner is dirty, please clean it with microfiber
cloth on the scanner. If it’s scratched, contact your local reseller for a replacement.

ANYTHING HAPPEN TO YOUR FINGER LATELY?

Make sure that the finger is not injured, cut or bruised because it could cause dif-
ficulty to read. The algorithm reads the minutiae points of your fingerprint, the more
it can read, the better the result.
