11. Programming Users without PC Software
Programming new users without using the PC software is possible, but leads to certain
limitations in operation of the fingerprint module
The internally stored fingerprint files that have not been read in via the PC software are
not completely compatible with the enclosed software for system-related reasons. For
example, such directly taught-in fingerprints can only be used to switch the relay "REL 1".
Therefore, mixed operation with differently taught-in users is not permissible!
We recommend generally programming new fingerprints via the PC software. User
administration is performed via name assignment and the further functions of the soft-
ware are much more comfortable.
General progress when programming without PC software (this requires a fingerprint module
without any fingerprints already saved):
First, the "master" fingerprint must be programmed. Only this user can clear the programming of
additional fingerprints.
After release by the "master" fingerprint, other fingerprints of other users can be programmed.
All operating steps must only be performed without any extended breaks (max. 15
seconds). Otherwise, the process is interrupted for reasons of safety, ignored or the fin-
gerprint module can only be returned to regular operating mode by hardware reset (see
chapter of the same name). This serves protection from manipulation.
General Notes:
• Assignment of the switching outputs "REL2" and "REL3" to the fingerprints is only possible via
the PC software.
• If the LED state does not change when programming or reading a finger, the finger must be
pulled over the sensor again.
• Accidental double flashing of "LED1" and "LED2" without any user action is system-related and
does not influence the function.
