1.1 Basic Concepts
This section contains definitions and descriptions of the XD401’s features, including:
· User Enrollment
· User Verification
· Match Threshold Levels
· User ID Numbers
· Authority (Status) Levels
The two most important XD401’s Functions are User Enrollment and User Verification.
1.1.1 User Enrollment
• Enrollment is the process to create an ID number and scanning a user’s finger to create a template three times. This template is associated with a user ID number and stored.
• During user verification, the stored template is compared to the current fingerprint scan to confirm the user’s identity.
• Enrollment is performed at designated units. The user can verify on the time recorder that enroll his fingerprint. The enrollment process takes approximately 2 seconds.
• Up to ten fingers can be enrolled for the same ID number, so the user may have more verifications way.
• Ideally, everyone finger on each hand should be enrolled so that if the user injures the enrolled finger had, an alternate finger template is available. While recording the finger type is optional, it is recommended such as left or right index, so that at verification the user is prompted as to which finger to use.
1.1.2 User Verification
Verification occurs when a user either enters an ID number or places a finger in the fingerprint sensor, then input password for comparison with the stored template.
1.1.3 Match Threshold Levels
The Mach Threshold is a number that represents the degree to which the verification is examined to ensure that the person is the person claimed.
The Match Threshold Levels establishes a balance between False Acceptance Rate (FAR) and False Rejection Rate (FRR). FAR measures how often a non-authorized user is falsely recognized and granted access to the system. FRR measures how often an enrolled and
p 4
authorized user, who should be granted access to the system, is denied on the basis that the system did not recognize him.
• You can set match threshold levels on a per-use basis. For the fingerprint verification is difficult, you can adopt ID & Fingerprint verification (match one to one).
• Raising the threshold increases security, while lowering it increases throughout. The correct balance is essential.
• For users with worn or damaged fingers, match threshold levels can (and should) be reduced.
• Different sites have different requirements.
ID Numbers
Table 1—1 Suggested Match Threshold Settings
FRR FAR One-to-many One-to-one
High Low 45 25
Middle Middle 35 15
Low High 25 10
1.1.4 User
Before beginning fingerprint enrollment, a user is assigned User ID Number. This ID number is used to call up the fingerprint template each time that verification is requested.ID numbers are normally called up via the keypad, but they can be called up through other means such as RF Card.
1.1.5 Authority (status) Levels
XD401 has four authority or status levels:
• Users are people whose identity must be verified, such to gain access to a facility or to have their attendance recorded.
• Enrollers are Users who are authorized to enroll new users or delete on to the system.
• Managers can do other operations, except set advanced option and enroll manager’s authority.
• Supervisors are Users who access to all functions and change all setup in the system.
Note: Without Manager and Supervisor status in the system, the Enroller will enroll them. And if there isn’t a Supervisor in the system, the Manager will enroll him.

Cleaning when visibly dirty and hard to read. See cleaning the keypad and display below.
Do not over clean. The platen is designed to work under greasy or dirty conditions.
However, do clean if the platen is obstructed or people are reporting deteriorating performance. See cleaning the Optical Platen below.
2. Cleaning the Keypad and Display
To clean the keypad and display, use the same cleaning products as for the platen, and wipe dry.
3 Cleaning the Optical Platen
Clean the optical platen as follows:
• (1) If dusty or gritty, first blow on the platen to clean off any loose particles.
• (2) Spray on a light coating of a window cleaning product or other similar neutral detergent. Warning: Do not use any other cleaner or the platen may become damaged.
• (3) Using a non-abrasive and lint-free cloth, pat dry. Be careful not to scratch the platen.
If lint particles adhere to the platen surface, blow them off when the platen is dry.
