Mifare Card Writer
As mentioned in Chapter 1: An Introduction, the FingerTec Info Manager is a basic tool that
is to be used with the Mifare Card Writer and OFIS Scanners. This chapter will discuss all the
functioning of the InfoManager with the Mifare Card Writer only. The program has a set of
limited functions to enroll fingerprints, issue Mifare cards and update terminals which are
described below.
De ning the Mifare Card Key Password
Some Mifare cards have a preset security feature in them programmed in by the supplier. This is referred to as the MF Card Key. The MF Card Key is basically a password that is
needed by a system before enabling any enrollment or changes to be done when issuing
the Mifare card. This feature exists to prevent unauthorized users from changing the card
settings on their own.
Before proceeding with enrolling or making changes to your Mifare card, you might need
to enter the Card Key password into the Info Manager first.
