Fingerprint Keyless Entry

Overview

The system uses biometric technology that enables an authorized user to gain access by scanning their fingerprint. The sensor strip on the unit makes a numeric template of the fingerprint that is unique to that user. The unit’s memory can store up to four fingerprints.

• The term “enroll” refers to scanning the fingerprint so the

device will recognize the user.

• The term “swipe” refers to the movement of the finger across

the sensor strip.

• The term “LED” stands for Light Emitting Diode. There are

6 LEDs located on the Fingerprint Keyless Entry

When unit is on, it is programmed to shut of

f after a short

period of time. The unit’

s sensor strip is sensitive so it is important to read the Tips for Success before attempting to use the Fingerprint Keyless Entry.

Tips for Success

CORRECT

1. Make sure finger is clean and dry. Place finger flat above the sensor strip with the top knuckle above the sensor.

2. Swipe finger straight down keeping firm contact with the sensor.

The swipe should be a slow, constant speed.

SPECIAL NOTES: Use the same finger for every swipe. It is important to swipe finger slowly and firmly as this is the reason most swipes fail.

The scan should end at the tip of finger.

INCORRECT

• Do not bend finger during swipe as this will only scan the tip of your finger.

• Swipe finger straight down, not at an angle.

• Swipe flat, not tilted or rolled to one side.
