Veri-Series Setup Guide The Veri-Series Product Line The Veri-Series fingerprint readers are used in access control and other related fields. There are a variety of features common to the various products, but there are differences as well, as described below. For more on the operational differences between the products please see Basic Operation on page 30.
Veri-Series Setup Guide retrofit applications and for applications where a card technology other than HID is desired. V-Pass™: The V-Pass provides one-to-many fingerprint identification for small user populations (the system is optimized for user populations up to 100, but can be used for populations up to 200). The V-Pass provides fingerprint only identification – no cards or PINs are required to use the system.
Veri-Series Setup Guide Required Connections The following table shows required and optional connections to the various products. Product Power Input V-Prox Wiegand Wiegand Input Output *** V-Flex *** V-Pass *** V-Smart V-Station * * Serial Earth Comm. Ground ** ** *** *** ** The power input on V-Smart is 9-12 VDC and 12.5-24VDC on V-Station instead of 9-24 VDC on the other products. * RS-485 communication is typically used for template distribution to multiple units.
Veri-Series Setup Guide Preparing Wiring 1. Wiring connections to be made: Wiegand – should be 18-22 AWG (10-7 MWG) wire, between 3 and 6 conductors depending on which signals will be carried, shielded cable is recommended, and typically the conductors are made of stranded wire. Minimum connections: Data0, Data1, Wiegand Ground RS-485 – use category 5 shielded cable. Ethernet – use category 5 shielded cable Power – should be 18 – 22 AWG (10 – 7 MWG) wire, 2 conductors.

RS-232 /RS-485 Converter Computer Use one pair (e.g. blue/white and white/blue) for RS-485 connections. Connect readers identically at each reader (e.g. blue/white on Cat5 to RS-485 (-) on pigtail/Weidmuller Connector and white/blue on Cat5 to RS-485 (+) on pigtail/Weidmuller Connector). 5. [RS-485 network only]: At converter, jumper TD(A) with RD(A) and TD(B) with RD(B).
Veri-Series Setup Guide 7. [RS-485 network only]: Set up network using 9600 baud rate. Only increase this data rate after the system is operating properly at 9600. 8. [Ethernet network only]: Typically a star network topology is used with a network switch or hub, but a bus topology may be used. Be sure to connect all devices using straight-thru (as apposed to cross-over) cables. The exception to this is when connecting a single device directly to the computer Ethernet adaptor. 9.

Set up a configuration station a. Wire the unit for power: • V-Prox/V-Flex/V-Pass: Connect the RED pigtail wire to 9-24V DC power and the BLACK wire to power ground. • V-Smart: Connect the RED pigtail wire to 9-12V DC power and the BLACK wire to power ground.
Veri-Series Setup Guide 3. Configure the device using the VeriAdmin software provided a. If running VeriAdmin for the first time, you will be directed to the Network Setup dialog. This dialog is also reached by clicking on this icon: . Select the serial (COM) port(s) you intend to use or Ethernet and click OK. It is recommended that you check “Auto”. © Copyright 2005 Bioscrypt Inc. All rights reserved.
Veri-Series Setup Guide b. This will bring you to the Network Configuration Manager dialog. First click on the Comm port or Ethernet within the network tree which you have connected the unit to (the or icon). Then click on the “Add Unit” button (lower left). © Copyright 2005 Bioscrypt Inc. All rights reserved.
Veri-Series Setup Guide c. VeriAdmin should establish communication with the unit. The Unit Status field should indicate ONLINE, you may hear the unit beep, and other fields on the right side should populate. If you are connecting via Ethernet, you must first assign the unit an IP address from the unit’s keypad and then type in the address under Ethernet Settings and click the Refresh button. d. If VeriAdmin shows NOT RESPONDING, check the connections and then press the Refresh button to try again. e.
Veri-Series Setup Guide g. Change desired parameters. Typical changes are: i. Communication Tab: Network ID (default is 0, but each unit must have a unique ID number such as 1, 2, 3, 4, etc.) ii. Wiegand Tab: Wiegand parameters NOTE: We do not recommend changing the Aux. port Baud rate at this time. 4. Repeat steps 2-4 (skipping 3a) for the next reader until all readers are configured. © Copyright 2005 Bioscrypt Inc. All rights reserved.
Veri-Series Setup Guide 5. If placing units on a RS-485 network, you will also need to set up the computer for RS-485 communications. a. Connect the RS-232/RS-485 converter to the PC’s COM port (must support Send Data – a means of automatically sensing data sent from the RS-232 port – we suggest the B&B Electronics, www.bb-elec.com, model 485TBLED or equivalent). b. Run category 5 rated cable from the converter to the first reader in the daisy chain. 6. V-Smart considerations a.
Veri-Series Setup Guide 7. V-Station considerations a. The V-Station does not require configuration via a PC. Nearly all configuration options can be set using the menus on the unit. However, it may be more convenient to administer the device from the PC due to the limited size of the LCD screen. b. To distribute templates to other V-Stations, you will need to place all V-Stations on a network and administer them via the PC.
Veri-Series Setup Guide Mounting Readers On The Wall 1. The readers come disassembled, however, if your reader has previously been assembled then disassemble the reader body and smart card module (for V-Smart only) from the wall plate. a. On V-Smart remove security screw securing smart card module b. For products other than V-Station, remove security screw securing the Aux. port cover, and remove the Aux. port cover by twisting (see graphics on page 25). c.
Veri-Series Setup Guide c. Provide clearance above and below for access d. The access hole in the wall for wiring should be less than 1 ½ inches wide so that wall plate will cover it. It should be less than 1 ½ inches tall if mounting into dry wall so that there is enough material to hold the anchor. The recommended size is 1 inch wide by 1 1/8 inches tall to match the opening in the wall plate. e.
Veri-Series Setup Guide 6. Feed main pigtail DB15 connector (not applicable to VStation) through wall plate from the back and proceed to mount wall plate: a. Optionally mount to a gang box using #6-32 screws provided. b. Optionally mount on wall. i. Use 4 outer mounting points (6 for V-Station). ii. Up to #6 screws can be accepted (screws and drywall anchors are provided). c. Use template provided to mark holes. 7.

Veri-Series Setup Guide h. If templates are saved to the PC or the unit and are to be distributed to other readers, then this can be done using the Template Manager functions. In the case of VSmart, the template is stored on the smart card and does not need to be distributed. 2. Using the keypad to enroll a new fingerprint (V-Station only): a. From the idle screen (showing ”Bioscrypt” with the date and time), press 0-0-0 (three zeroes) and . You will be warned about no admin ID. b.
Veri-Series Setup Guide h. Choose the security level, 0 – 6 (0 = none, 1 = very high, 2 = high, … 5 = very low, 6 = Password Only). You may i. press for the default (3). Choose the admin level 0 – 2 (0 = user, 1 = enroller, 2 = full admin). You may press for the default (user). j. Enter a password for the template, if desired, or for none. k. If the unit is a V-Station MIFARE or V-Station iCLASS, the next menu will ask if you would like to save the template to the unit (1) or to a smart card (2).
Veri-Series Setup Guide c. When the light turns off, remove the finger and the door lock will release if the verification was successful (reader will indicate green for success or red for failure). 4. Cleaning and care of the sensor The fingerprint sensor is a solid-state device designed to provide years of trouble-free service. Although there is little to do in terms of maintenance, a few basics in caring for the sensor will help to ensure a high level of performance over the life of the sensor.
