Appendix A. Tips for Scanning Fingerprint

Recommended Finger

Forefinger, middle finger or the third finger.

Correct Scanning

The figure displayed below is the correct way to scan your finger:

Illustration of two hands pointing at a square button with dashed lines indicating alignment or measurement (no text or symbols)

You should press your finger on the scanner horizontally. The center of your scanned finger should align with the scanner center.

Incorrect Scanning

The figures of scanning fingerprint displayed below are incorrect:

Illustration of a finger pressing a square button with motion arrows, next to a dashed rectangular frame (no text or symbols)

Vertical

Line drawing of a finger pressing a square with dashed border (no text or symbols)

Edge I

Simple line drawing of a finger pressing a button on a square panel (no text or symbols)

Side

Simple line drawing of a hand pressing a square object on a rectangular surface (no text or symbols)

Edge II

Environment

The scanner should avoid direct sun light, high temperature, humid conditions and rain.

When it is dry, the scanner may not recognize your fingerprint successfully. You can blow your finger and scan again.

Others

If your fingerprint is shallow, or it is hard to scan your fingerprint, we recommend you to use other authentication methods.

If you have injuries on the scanned finger, the scanner may not recognize. You can change another finger and try again.

Appendix B. DIP Switch Description

No.1 to No 8 is from the low bit to the high bit.

Appendix C. Custom Wiegand Rule Descriptions

Take Wiegand 44 as an example, the setting values in the Custom Wiegand tab are as follows:

Custom Wiegand Name	Wiegand 44
Total Length 44
Transformation Rule (Decimal Digit)	byFormatRule[4]=[1][4][0][0]
Parity Mode XOR Parity
Odd Parity Start Bit Length
Even Parity Start Bit Length
XOR Parity Start Bit 0 Length per Group 4 Total Length 40
Card ID Start Bit 0 Length 32 Decimal Digit 10
Site Code Start Bit	Length Decimal Digit
OEM Start Bit	Length Decimal Digit

Wiegand Data

Wiegand Data = Valid Data + Parity Data

Total Length

Wiegand data length.

Transportation Rule

4 bytes. Display the combination types of valid data. The example displays the combination of Card ID and Manufacturer Code. The valid data can be single rule, or combination of multiple rules.

Parity Mode

Valid parity for Wiegand data. You can select either odd parity or even parity.

Odd Parity Start Bit, and Length

If you select Odd Parity, these items are available. If the odd parity start bit is 1, and the length is 12, then the system will start odd parity calculation from bit 1. It will calculate 12 bits. The result will be in bit 0. (Bit 0 is the first bit.)

Even Parity Start Bit, and Length

If you select Even Parity, these items are available. If the even parity start bit is 12, and the length is 12, then the system will start even parity calculation from bit 12. It will calculate 12 bits. The result will be in the last bit.

XOR Parity Start Bit, Length per Group, and Total Length

If you select XOR Parity, these items are available. Depending on the table displayed above, the start bit is 0, the length per group is 4, and the total length is 40. It means that the system will calculate from bit 0, calculate every 4 bit, and calculate 40 bits in total (10 groups in total). The result will be in the last 4 bits. (The result length is the same as the length per group.)

Card ID Start Bit, Length, and Decimal Digit

If you use the transformation rule, these items are available. Depending on the table displayed above, the card ID start bit is 0, the length is 32, and the decimal digit is 10. It represents that from bit 0, there are 32 bits represent the card ID. (The length here is calculated by bit.) And the decimal digit length is 10 bits.

Site Code Start Bit, Length, and Decimal Digit

If you use the transformation rule, these items are available. For detailed information, see the explanation of the card ID.

OEM Start Bit, Length, and Decimal Digit

If you use the transformation rule, these items are available. For detailed information, see the explanation of the card ID.

Manufacturer Code Start Bit, Length, and Decimal Digit

If you use the transformation rule, these items are available. Depending on the table displayed above, the manufacturer code start bit is 32, length is 8, and decimal digit is 3. It represents that from bit 32, there are 8 bits are manufacturer code. (The length here is calculated by bit.) And the decimal length is 3.
