Performing Authentication with the BioPointe

5.1 Performing Fingerprint Authentication
There are 4 ways to perform fingerprint matching.
The first is to use the keypad to enter your full ID. The second is to present your full ID to the
BioPointe through the hidden card reader by flashing the card across the device. These 2 methods are
also known as one-to-one-matching (verification). The third method is to use Quick Search. This
method also uses the keypad, but eliminates the need of having to enter your full ID. Only 2 or more
digits of your ID are sufficient to tell the device to search for a match.
The last method is to use one-to-many matching (or identification), where no ID is required to be
entered. However, the user should note that this method is carried out at a higher level of security, and
hence may be more difficult to match successfully for reasons such as the finger was not well enrolled
initially, or when it was not placed well on the sensor.
One-to-One Matching using the Keypad
Using the numeric keys, enter your ID.
If the ID exists, the sensor will light up and the 2 nd LED will blink fast in red.
Place your finger on the sensor, removing it only when the sensor light goes off.
If the 1
st LED lights up in green, the authentication is successful.
If the 1
st LED lights up in red, you will be allowed another try. Place your finger on the
sensor again when it lights up.
