3.4 Logging of Transactions and Trace Events

The BioPointe device handles three types of log records listed as follows:

Transaction Log

A transaction log is recorded upon a successful Door Access Authentication or Door Access
Authentication Time-Zone Control. Each log contains the ID of the user performing the
authentication, as well as the date and time.

Trace Event Log

A trace event log is recorded whenever any critical event has occurred during local
administration or during operation (such as when the device was being tampered with).

Fail Attempt Log

A fail attempt log is recorded when the authentication process fails.

The BioPointe allocates a storage space for 22000 log records before they are over-written by a first-
in-first-overwritten basis. As a system administrator, you ought to upload the log record to the host
database periodically. Logging of the Trace Event and Fail Attempt can be disabled if these logs are
not required. You can refer to the Appendix for a full listing of the types of logs.

3.5 Interfacing to Keri System Controller

The BioPointe device supports the following Wiegand formats to interface to a Keri System
Controller:

26 Bits Standard

26 Bits Vendor 1

35 Bits Standard

36 Bits Standard

37 Bits Standard

40 Bits Standard

When Wiegand output is enabled, the device will be able to generate and send the Wiegand data (ID
with site code and system code) to the external controller upon a successful authentication. The
type of external controllers used must be able to support the above Wiegand formats.
