1 Introduction
Chapter 1 Introduction
The fingerprint reader can work with GV-AS / GV-EV Controller and GV-ASManager to create a complete access control system. Three types of operation modes are supported: Card + Fingerprint, Fingerprint Only and Card Only.
Card + Fingerprint Mode
With the fingerprint reader only, you can enroll and manage users through the supplied Manager Enroll Card and Delete Card, along with optional MIFARE cards.
The fingerprint templates are stored in the user card. The user gains access by scanning both his/her finger and the card. The reader compares the presented finger with digital template stored in the card. If the finger is successfully authenticated, a signal is sent to momentarily activate the door relay of the controller.
Fingerprint Only Mode
The fingerprints are enrolled through a GV-GF1911 reader installed on the computer running the GV-ASManager software using RS485 connection or through a GV-GF1921 / 1922 reader using TCP/IP connection. The fingerprint data are distributed through GV-ASManager to the assigned fingerprint readers installed on GV-AS / GV-EV Controllers for access control.
Card Only Mode
This mode requires the users to present their cards only to be granted access.
Note: GV-GF1921 / 1922 can also work as a standalone device. For details, see 7. A Standalone Fingerprint Reader.

1 Introduction
1.2 Options
You can order the following optional accessories:
GV-AS ID Card & For Card + Fingerprint Mode, the GV-AS ID F Card or GV-AS ID GV-AS ID Tag F Tag is required. You can find the serial number Fxxx,xxxxx at
the bottom right corner of the card, or at the center of the tag.
|
For Card Only Mode, both the GV-AS ID F Card / Tag and the |
|
GV-AS ID Card / Tag are supported, but the GV-AS ID F Card / |
|
Tag cannot contain any fingerprint data. |
GV-HUB V2 |
The GV-Hub V2 adds four RS-232/RS-485 serial ports through |
|
the computer’s USB port, allowing connection between the |
|
fingerprint reader and the computer. |
GV-COM V2 |
The GV-COM V2 can convert the standard RS-232 signal, |
|
through USB connector, to RS-485 signal, allowing connection |
|
between the fingerprint reader and the computer. |
3
GV-NET/IO Card V3.1 The GV-NET/IO Card is a RS-485 / RS-232 interface converter GV-NET/IO Card V3.2 that provides 4 inputs and 4 relay outputs. Using the GV-NET/IO
Card, you can connect the fingerprint reader to the computer.
PC Service Package The package includes a USB cable for connecting the fingerprint reader to a computer and a reader mount to hold the reader for fingerprint enrollment. See 7. Upgrading Firmware later.
Note:
1.For Card + Fingerprint Mode, GV-GF Fingerprint Readers can only work with GeoVision’s user cards and tags.
2.For Card + Fingerprint Mode, be sure that your user card has the serial number starting with the letter F; otherwise, you cannot record the fingerprints to the user card.
3.GV-HUB V2, GV-COM V2, GV-NET/IO Card and PC Service Package are only compatible with GV-GF1911 / 1912.

1 Introduction
1.3 Serial Number / MAC Address
To find the serial number of GV-GF1911 / 1912, see the XID number on the back of fingerprint reader.
Figure 1-1
For GV-GF1921 and GV-GF1922, you can find the MAC address on the back of the device.
Figure 1-2
You can also find the serial number (for GV-GF1911 / 1912) or the MAC address (for GVGF1921 / 1922) using the GV-Net Module Utility supplied on the software CD. For details to use the utility, see GV-Net Module Utility, Chapter 10.

Chapter 2 Connecting GV-AS Controller
Depending on the model of the fingerprint reader, three types of communication links are provided: Wiegand, RS-485 and TCP/IP (LAN).
2.1 Connecting through Wiegand Interface
Supported models: GV-GF1911 / 1912.
2.1.1 Physical Connection
The fingerprint reader is connected with an unshielded 9-wire cable of 100 cm / 3.28 feet. Connect these 4 unshielded wires to the assigned pins on the Wiegand interface of the GVAS Controller: Red, Black, White and Green wires.
Figure 2-1
The table below shows the wire assignments of the fingerprint reader used for Wiegand connection.
