Network Identification Number

In a networked environment, a unique number must be assigned to each unit

before adding that unit to the network (The default setting from the factory is “0”).

If two or more units have the same Network ID on the same COMM Port, data

collisions will cause poor communication on that COMM Line (See “Concepts of

Operations” section).

Setting the Number

1 In the Assign Unit Network ID field, type the new Network ID

number.

2 Click the Set button.

Global Security Threshold

There are two types of security settings: the local security level associated with the

individual template; and, the global security level associated with the individual

Veri-Series unit. You may recall that the system will authorize using the lower of

the two. See the appendix for a discussion of security settings and algorithm

performance.

Example: If the template is set for Very High, and the unit is set

for Medium, the authorization will be performed at the

Medium setting.

Because of the unit’s high accuracy rate, which practically negates the possibility

of a false read, the above affords the unit a high rate of true authorization.

Setting the Security Threshold

Select the threshold level:

• Very High

• High

• Medium

• Low
