20 Chapter 3 How To Use The Device Diagnostic Tool Running the Diagnostic Tool Device Enroll Verify Fingerprint Quality Check General About
21Running the Diagnostic Tool 1. Click Start-Run to run the testing program. 2. Type ‘NFD’ and click “OK”.
22Device 1. Select a device you wish to use and then initialize. 2. Click “Device Scan” to display the list of all devices in the system. 3. Choose a certain device from the list and click “Init” to initialize the device, which makes it possible to capture or use other functionalities of the tab. Without initialization, other functionalities of the tab cannot be used. 4. Click “Init” to output device information.5. Click “Save” or right-click on the image to save the fingerprint image as BMP. If the fingerprint is not input, the image will not be saved.
236. There are options in capturing fingerprints. If the fingerprint is dry or wet, resulting in poor image quality, the fingerprint cannot be input properly. In this case, uncheck the “Latent Fingerprint Check” and then capture the image to view the fingerprint image. USB Device: At present, devices that can be supported are USB-typed HFDU01, MFDU01 and HFDU11. Click “Device Scan” with a driver installed to display types of USB devices that are connected to the system.
24Enroll 1. Enroll users using eNBSP SDK, based on the device selected from the Device tab. Enrolled fingerprint information is used to authenticate fingerprints in the Verify tab. 2. Click “Enroll” to display the UI for fingerprint enrollment. Select a fingerprint to register and click “finish”. 3. If the fingerprint is successfully input, the user ID is registered and “SUCCESS” is displayed.
25 4. A user ID automatically increments from 1000. A fingerprint ID is automatically selected from 1 to 10, each corresponding to from the thumb of the right hand to the little finger of the left hand in an orderly manner. A user ID can be changed within the range of 1000~9999. If a user ID and a fingerprint ID are identical, a message “Do you want to update it?” will be pop up. 5. Click “Delete FP” to remove the selected fingerprint information from the list. Click “Delete All” to delete all information in the list.
26Verify 1. User information input from the Enroll tab is displayed on the list. Using this user information, verification is performed. There are two types of authentication: Verification(1:1) and Identification(1:N). 2. Select “Identification” and then click “Match” to perform verification. If there is a fingerprint that matches, related information is displayed. 3. Or select a user ID and a fingerprint ID to attempt verification. Choose “1000-6” as a fingerprint but use the fingerprint input as “1001-7”. Then attempt to match both. The system displays the result by comparing the two.
274. Matching Score is output when authentication attempted. It is a result of matching an input fingerprint with existing fingerprint data. The score range is 0 ~ 9. The score is compared with the security level value of the General tab, determining success or failure. If the security level is 5 and the matching score is lower than 5, verification fails. If the score is higher than 5, on the other hand, verification is passed. If a fingerprint input is too dry or to wet or it is not properly input, the score can turn out to be low.
28Fingerprint Quality Check 1. You can check the status of fingerprints before enrolling fingerprints or attempting verification. 2. Input the same fingerprint twice. The picture on the left is an example of an image of an improperly input fingerprint. 3. This is an image of a properly input fingerprint. Make sure to input the core of a fingerprint.
29 4. It is recommended that a minimum value required to enroll a fingerprint be bigger than 3. It can be less than 2 but it can bring about low verification ratio. The same fingerprint with different positions on the sensor can change values because fingerprint features are located differently.
30General 1. Option values used in eNBSP SDK are set up. The values are applied to other tabs. If “Init” is not selected on the Device tab, Brightness and Contrast are set at “0”, which cannot be changed. 2. The pictures left shows images of a fingerprint with two different Brightness values. If a fingerprint is too dry or too wet, change Brightness and Contrast to get an optimal image. 3. The maximum number of fingerprint that can be input is 10 as a default. If it is changed to “1”, only one fingerprint is allowed to be registered from the Enroll tab. The Security Level is important, determining success or failure of verification on the Verify tab. Click “Default” to initialize.

33 Chapter 4 Troubleshooting USB FRD Problems Driver Installation without Installshield wizard
34USB FRD Problems <When the USB FRD doesn’t work > 1. Verify that the USB connector of FRD is connected to the USB port correctly. 2. Click Start-Setting-Control Panel-System icon and select the ‘Device Manager’ tab to verify that the Fingkey Mouse driver is installed correctly. If it is not installed correctly as shown below, repeat the installation process and be sure to select the USB Fingkey Mouse. 3. If you are using the FRD connected to a USB port in a USB keyboard or Hub, verify that the USB keyboard or Hub has it’s own power-supply. The USB FRD uses almost 110mA of electric power, so it should only be connected to hubs that are self-powered.
35<When you use the FRD with any other high-speed USB devices> 1. When the FRD is connected on your computer together with any other high-speed USB devices such as USB Camera or USB Scanner etc., it cannot be used at the same time as these devices. Close the programs that are using these devices before using the FRD. 2. Because the FRD is a high-speed USB device and uses almost 66% of your system USB limit, the USB device will not function concurrently with any other device using more than 40% of the USB bandwidth. 3. Fingkey Hamster II adopts a bulk type, enabling the user to use other USB devices simultaneously. This, however, can degrade the quality of fingerprint images. <When any other mouse driver is installed on your computer> 1. When the Logitech mouse driver is installed on your computer, FRD Fingkey Mouse performance is very slow. 2. Click Start-Setting-Control Panel-Mouse icon and “Motion” tab to adjust the speed of mouse pointer. 3. If you cannot adjust the speed of mouse pointer, remove the existing Logitech mouse driver to use FRD. <When be connected to the USB 1.1> 1. Performance of Fingkey Hamster II is maximized in USB2.0. There should be no problem with connecting to the USB1.1 port but this can display the message below.
