Honeywell VISTA Series Products User Manual 1 Instruction for Use Thank you for using our Honeywell VISTA CAFP100Fxx series fingerprint recognition terminal (FRT). Please read this manual carefully before using this product for a comprehensive understanding so as to avoid causing unnecessary damages to the product. Protect the FRT from exposure to direct sunlight or strong beam as strong beam greatly affects the fingerprint collection and leads to fingerprint verification failure. ° Avoid using the FRT outdoors in summer. The working temperature of CAFP100Fxx series ranges from 0–40 C. The heat dissipated during longterm operation may easily lead to response slowdown and verification pass rate decrease. It is recommended to use sunshades and heat sink devices for protection of the FRTs outdoors. We recommend you to use the FRT properly so as to achieve the optimal recognition effect and verification speed. 1.

Honeywell VISTA Series Products User Manual 2 Basic Concepts This section introduces the definitions and descriptions of the following basic concepts: Ø User enrollment Ø User verification Ø Match threshold Ø User ID Ø Authority class The most important two functions supported by CAFP100Fxx series are user enrollment and verification. 2.1 User Enrollment A user can enroll up to 10 different fingerprints using one ID number to have multiple verification selections. Theoretically all the fingers of a user need to be enrolled so that the user can still perform fingerprint matching even if one or more of his/her fingers get cut or damaged. Generally it is recommended that a user shall enroll at least two fingerprints, for example, the index fingers of both hands, so that the user can use any of the enrolled fingerprints for recognition even if he/she forgets which fingerprint has been enrolled. 2.2 User Verification When a user enters a password after placing his/her finger on the fingerprint reader, or scans his/her ...

Honeywell VISTA Series Products User Manual 9 FAQs Question: How do I address the problem that some employees fail to pass the fingerprint verification more often than not? Answer: The following factors will make fingerprint verification hard or even impossible for some employees: •. The fingerprints of some fingers wear out. ‚. The fingers have too many wrinkles which change frequently. ƒ The skin on the fingers peels off badly. For users whose fingerprints are beyond recognition, they can delete these fingerprints and enroll them again or enroll a fingerprint of another finger. It is recommended to select fingers with good fingerprint quality (few wrinkles, no peelingoff and distinct fingerprint) for fingerprint enrollment. Press the finger flatly on the fingerprint sensor and be sure that the pad (not the tip) covers as much of the sensor window as possible. Perform fingerprint match test after finishing enrollment. It is recommended to enroll the fingerprints of several fingers as backup. Furthermore, the FRT provides the 1:1 matching and password verification functions especially for users who have difficulty in or cannot pass fingerprint verification. Question: What are the possible causes of FRT communication failure? Answer: The possible causes are listed as follows: • The setting of communication port is incorrect. The port set for communication is not the COM port actually used. ‚ The setting of the communication port baud rate of the PC is not consistent with that of the FRT. ƒ The FRT is not connected with the power supply or the PC. „ The FRT is connected with the PC but not powered on. … The No. of the connected terminal is incorrect. † The data cable or converter is faulty. ...

Answer: This problem may relate to the data cable, converter or the COM port setting of the PC. You may try decreasing the baud rate of the PC and FRT, for example, set it to 19200 or 9600 before reading the attendance data again. 36 ...
Honeywell VISTA Series Products User Manual 10 Appendix The functions described in Appendix are all optional. If you need FRTs that support these functions, please consult our commercial representatives or presales technical support engineers. 10.1 USB USB Host The FRT is used as the USB Host to externally connect with a USB pen drive for data exchange. The conventional fingerprint readers transfer data only through the RS232, RS485 or Ethernet. Bulk data transfer may take a long time due to the restriction of physical conditions. The USB far outperforms any other previous transfer modes in terms of data transfer rate. Insert the USB pen drive to the USB slot on the FRT, download data to the USB pen drive, and then connect the USB pen drive to a computer to import the data to the computer. Further, the FRT also supports the exchange of user information and fingerprint data between two devices, which helps dispense with the hassle of conventional cable connection for data transfer between the FRT and computers. For the operations of the FRT used as the USB host, see 5.USB Pen Drive 10.2 Short Message FRTs of some models support the transfer of public and private short messages at the specified time and for a specified individual. You can edit public or short messages through the background software and then upload them to the FRT. The public short messages are displayed on the screen all the time once the FRT is started, while private short messages are displayed upon the fingerprint verification. This function helps reduce the ...

Honeywell VISTA Series Products User Manual Currently, three modesRS232, Wiegand and RS485 are applicable for the connection of the master and the slave. Of the three, RS232 is less often used due to its deficiency that its connection distance is short. For example, it can be used when the master and the slave are just installed respectively inside and outside a door. Its connection principle is similar to that of RS485, which is omitted here. The Wiegand connection is widely used, most of whose devices on the market are applicable to the master and the slave. RS485, whose transmission distance is great (however it is recommended that the distance should not be over 600 meters), applies to most occasions, but the slave must be equipped with the inBIO reader (which is used for collecting fingerprint or swiping card).
