PoE-Enabled Hub Connected Directly to MiY Device 2 Connect a CAT-5 Ethernet cable between the Ethernet port of the MiY device and a midspan power injector unit Hub Connected to MiY Devices via Midspan 3 -Installing a MiY Device Proprietary 15
3.5 Panel-in Wiring The Panel in wiring can be done by placing the wire into terminal block slot (B4) LED – like Panel Input (0) as well as connecting a ground cable from the panel to either terminal block slot (A4) Power GND or (C4) Wiegand Input GND. If your device is connected via Wiegand to an access control panel, then you can connect a wire from (C3) Wiegand Output GND to (C4) Wiegand Input GND.
3.7 Securing the MiY Devices on the Wall Once the wires are connected, run the wires downwards so that they pass the compression pad. The wires should be evenly distributed to create the best possible seal between the top and bottom compression pads WARNING: Grouping wires together can create a gap, allowing water and dust to enter the device. Also not screwing down the compression pad will reduce the Industrial Protection capabilities of the device.
Proper Wire Distribution 3 -Installing a MiY Device Proprietary 18
1 Screw down and tighten the screws on the compression panel so the compression pads conform to the wires and create a seal Compression Panel Screw Position 2 Pivot the device on the bracket hinge and bring it up over the wall mount.
3 Secure the device by using the security-screw driver to insert and tighten the security screws on both sides of the MiY-Device. Location of Security Screws 4 Verify that the security screws are in place by attempting to rotate the device off the mounting bracket by its hinge at the bottom. The device should feel secured and not loose. 3.8 Balancing the Termination For the last device on the line, you should add a termination resister to the terminal block before plugging it into the device.
A good rule of thumb is that if the propagation delay of the data line is much less than one bit width, termination is not needed. This rule makes the assumption that reflections will damp out in several trips up and down the data line. Since the receiving UART will sample the data in the middle of the bit, it is important that the signal level be solid at that point.

A Optimizing Fingerprint Images A.1 Positioning the Finger on the Fingerprint Sensor During enrollment, be sure to properly position the finger on the sensor. Figure A-1 illustrates poorly placed fingers. The Cogent algorithm will reject images that do not contain enough minutiae points. Figure A-1 Improper Finger Placement Finger Issue Finger 1 The finger is positioned too high on the sensor and does not offer enough information to accurately enroll an image.
Figure A-2 Proper Finger Placement A.2 Capturing High-Quality Fingerprints The condition of the finger itself may affect the image quality of the fingerprint. The following table provides descriptions of typical finger conditions and Cogent’s recommended solutions for ensuring the capture of the highest quality fingerprints. Image Condition Solution Dry Finger Perform one of the following actions: The finger is very dry and difficult to capture.
Image Condition Solution Not Enough Pressure The user should apply moderate but steady pressure; about the same pressure as pressing a button on a telephone. The user did not apply enough pressure. As a result, the image looks very light and some of the surrounding areas are not captured. Too much Pressure The user is applying too much pressure on the sensor. This distorts the fingerprint image and will make it difficult to identify in the future.
