12 Working with the Biometric Reader Employees can use a finger to punch In/Out on the time clock. This section describes biometric technology, how to enroll a finger correctly, and how to punch In/Out. Understanding Biometric Technology and Enrollment All fingers contain a number of unique physical characteristics called minutiae which include certain visible aspects of fingerprints such as ridges, ridge endings, and bifurcation (forking) of ridges. Most of the minutiae are found in the core point of fingerprints. A core point is the topmost point on the innermost upward ridge line. The quality of finger image is relative to the number of minutiae points captured. Please note: The IDpunch 7 Finger Reader does not store or read finger prints. It uses the physical characteristics of the finger to create a unique template to store and compare when an employee punches. To ensure a smooth finger enrollment process, consider the factors influencing finger enrollment and follow the rules listed here. Finger selection. Use index, middle or ring fingers with good core points. Avoid using thumb and little fingers since they are awkward to consistently position on the sensor. Good core points are found near the center of the finger on the fleshy pad. Good core point Bad core point Finger position. Always place the finger in the center of the sensor reader to ensure consistent finger positioning. If the scanned minutiae remain consistent whenever an individual punches, the finger image is successfully matched to the pre-existing template. Placing the finger far from the center of the sensor reader increases the rejection rate. Finger area. Maximize the surface area of the finger to capture the most minutiae. Correct placement

©2011, Attendance on Demand®, Inc. Information in this document is subject to change without notice.

13 Avoid the following most common mistakes made during the initial phase of enrollment. Incorrect placement Finger rotation. Avoid or minimize finger rotation during enrollment and verification. Finger condition. Avoid using a finger that is too wet or dry. Excessive or lacking moisture can result in poor-quality finger images, characterized by smudged, faded or distorted areas on the finger. Poor quality finger images Finger Pressure. Apply moderate pressure when making contact with the sensor reader. If too much pressure is applied, the ridges adhere to each other, which is similar to the wet finger image. On the other hand, if too little pressure is applied, the resulting image is similar to the dry finger. A little practice is needed for employees to get the feel of it. Enrolling Employees Before employees can be enrolled at a time recorder, those employees must have badge numbers and belong to a clock group that is assigned to the time clock. Then employee finger enrollment can be performed at the time clock. To enroll an employee, you can use the time clock configuration menu or set up a function key for enrolling employees. To enroll an employee using the time clock configuration menu: 1. Press MENU on the time clock. 2. Enter the administrator’s PIN to access the IDpunch 7 Finger Reader menu if the menu is locked. The Enrollment Menu is highlighted. 3. Press OK. Employee Enrollment is highlighted. 4. Present the employee badge or enter the employee’s badge number. 5. Press OK. Follow the following instructions on the display to place or remove the finger on or from the platen. First, a notification message, such as “Preparing to enroll 1 of 1 finger(s)” is displayed. Place the finger on the platen after the message “Place Your Finger Firmly” is displayed. Remove the finger from the platen after the message “Remove your Finger” is displayed. Place the finger on the platen again when the message “Place Your Finger” is displayed.

©2011, Attendance on Demand®, Inc. Information in this document is subject to change without notice.

14 It is important that the finger is placed on the platen in the same manner every time. See Understanding Biometric Technology and Enrollment on page 12 to ensure enrollment is successful. During the enrollment process, if the finger is not placed on the platen within 10-15 seconds after the message “Place Your Finger Firmly” or “Place Your Finger” is displayed, the message “Operation was Not Successful. Please Try Again Later” followed by “Enrollment Failed” is displayed. 6. Once the enrollment is successful, the message “Completed. Thank you!” is displayed. Otherwise, the message “About to Try Again.” is displayed. 7. Depending on the configuration, enroll other fingers or other employees or press ESC to exit the menu. 8. The finger can be tested immediately after the enrollment. Place enrolled finger on the platen. If the finger is read successfully, the employee’s badge number and the message “Transaction Accepted” is displayed on the screen. If the finger read is not successful, error message “Unable to Identify” is displayed with the score number. 9. Once the enrollment is successful, the employee badge number is displayed with the score number on the screen. The score reflects how accurately your hand is placed on the platen and should average above 80. To enroll employee use the designated function key: 1. Press the function key to access the Enrollment Menu. Enroll Employee is highlighted. 2. Press OK. 3. Follow the instructions on how to enroll an employee using the time clock configuration menu in Enrolling Employees on page 13. Punching In or Out After employee fingers are enrolled in the system, they can punch. 1. (For Verify mode) Enter the employee badge number in this step or in step 3. 2. (For Verify mode or Identify mode) Place enrolled finger on the platen. It is important that the finger is placed on the platen in the same manner every time. 3. (For Verify mode) Enter the employee badge number in this step or in step. 4. If the finger is read successfully, Employee name and “Transaction Accepted” are displayed on the screen. If the finger read is not successful, error messages are displayed, such as “Access Denied”. Customized messages can be displayed for different situations, such as “Double Punch”, or “Not a member of this unit”. Make sure the employee is enrolled using the correct badge.

15 Working with Proximity Badges The IDpunch 7 Finger Reader reads proximity badges to punch employees In and Out and perform transactions. This section describes how to prepare and use badges with the IDpunch 7 Finger Reader. Understanding Proximity Technology The proximity technology used in IDpunch 7 Finger Readers is simple and effective. Proximity badges store a small amount of information, a series of digits, using an encoding that the proximity reader can scan and process. Instead of having to remember a PIN, employees simply wave their badges in front of the proximity reader to punch. Punching In or Out After badges are assigned to employees, they can punch In/Out. 1. Wave a proximity badge 3¼ inches away from the reader (or closer) or type the employee’s badge number at the clock. 2. If the badge is read successfully, no messages are displayed on the IDpunch 7 Finger Reader screen. If the badge read is not successful, error messages are displayed, such as “Access Denied”. Customized messages can be displayed for different situations, such as “Double Punch”, or “Not a member of this unit”. Make sure the employee is enrolled using the correct badge. Preparing Badges for Use Before proximity badges are ready to use, some preparation is required. Scan the badges at the clock to register them with the system. See Registering Badges in the System on page 15. Issue badge numbers to employees, print badge labels, and give badges to employees. See Issuing Badges to Employees on page 16. Registering Badges in the System Badges must be registered in the system so employees can easily be assigned an appropriate badge number. This operation is performed at the IDpunch 7 Finger Reader. 1. Press MENU on the IDpunch 7 Finger Reader. If needed, identify an administrator at the clock with a PIN. 2. Use the arrow keys to navigate to Settings and press OK. 3. Use the arrow keys to navigate to Allocate Badges and press OK. The IDpunch 7 Finger Reader displays Register RFID’s. 4. Pass each proximity badge over the sensor, one after the other, to register the badges.

16 5. Press ESC to exit the menu. The clock performs a synchronization automatically to upload badges to the system. Issuing Badges to Employees Before badges can be used they must be issued to employees (with or without labels). This procedure is different depending on whether you are issuing badges to all employees (typical when a clock is first being installed) or to just one employee (typical when a new employee is hired). Issuing Badges to All Employees Use the Comprehensive Employee Import or the Simple Employee Import to import employees with their badge numbers in Attendance on Demand. Issuing Badges to One Employee Use Add New Employee Wizard to issue a badge to a new employee when he/she is added in Attendance on Demand. Printing Badge Labels To print labels from Attendance on Demand, see Appendix E: Printing Badge Labels on page 36. Changing Badge Assignments Badge assignments must occasionally be changed when an employee leaves the company, no longer punches, or loses or damages a badge. When an Employee Leaves Work If an employee leaves the company or no longer punches, ask the employee to return his or her badge. If the badge is returned, a label can be reprinted and the badge number reused.
