Panasonic BM-ET200 User Manual

Iris Reader

BM-ET200

Highly accurate recognition with

fast capture engine and dual mirrors

Simple to configure and easy-to-use Iris Reader with recognition results in 0.3 seconds*

*Time required for recognition in a normal, ready-to-recognize condition after the eyes are aligned with the main unit mirrors.

The BM-ET200 offers more-accurate, faster, non-contact entry/exit control
utilizing biometric technology for iris recognition.
The system can be used to check IDs in a variety of applications,
including airports and entry/exit control for many types of industries.

SYSTEM DIAGRAMS

Network system

Integrates with Wiegand-compatible Systems

Compatible with standard Wiegand interface protocol
access control systems thus offering flexible system
configuration. Legacy PROX cards are also supported.*

Most card formats are supported-please check with your local Panasonic sales office.

*

To handle the protocol, it is necessary to install the BM-ETA201 optional Interface Board

*

(PAL only).

Maximum system specification

Maximum number of iris readers 256 units

Number of users that can be registered 10,000 users

Local matching 5,000 users

Fast, high-speed capture engine developed to
obtain recognition in only 0.3 seconds

Panasonic developed a unique high-speed capture engine
that obtains recognition in only 0.3 seconds after eye
position alignment with the mirrors. If recognition is not
achieved the first time, the operation is automatically
repeated at high prompting speeds.

Dual-mirror configuration
makes eye alignment easy

Two mirrors are mounted on the front panel.
Eye position is less likely to be out of side to side
alignment, making recognition easier. Positioning of
either left or right eye is simplified.

Distance guide indicator informs the
user of proper iris capture distance

To adjust the camera for the most optimal eye distance,
both voice instructions and distance indicator lamp
guide provide user guidance so the correct capture
position is achieved.

Distance

Too close

Suitable

Too far

High security, with false acceptance
rate of 1 in 1.2 million*

Iris recognition uses individual
differences in the complex
patterns found within the
iris of the human eye to
authenticate individual identities.
Iris recognition is the most precise
of all biometric identification systems.
The false acceptance rate is so low that the probability of
falsely identifying one individual as another is virtually zero.

Iris Characteristics

•

An extremely complex pattern that differs even between identical twins.

• Patterns stabilize between six months and two years of age and
then remain unchanged for life.

• They are extremely difficult to imitate.

captures images of the irises.

Live indicator

condition.

Results indicator

The lamp lights when recognition
is completed.

Tamper Detection

The tamper protection feature prevents data from
being extracted from the system. An audible alarm
is triggered via the integrated tamper switches.
Alarm signals are also transmitted to the access
control system and Administration Server.

5,000 User License Included

Iris data for up to 5,000 users can be registered
with the Base Administration Software BM­ES200A within the network mode. With
additional (optional) user licenses, the system
can register and manage iris data for up to
10,000 users. Contact Panasonic directly for
systems requiring more than 10,000 users. Up
to 50 users are included in the stand alone mode.

50 user licenses included in the BM-ET200 in stand alone mode
cannot be used in a network mode.

Access log can be searched by time

Using the time of image capture stored in the
camera, you can search the access log of a
specific user for the specified time.
