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 29.
Common Features
The various products in the Veri-Series line have some features in common
such as both RS-232 and RS-485 serial communications protocol support
for connection to a PC, Wiegand input and output protocol support for
connection to access control equipment, a wide power input range (9-24
Volts DC) except for the V-Smart (9-12 Volts DC) and V-Station (12.5-24
Volts DC), and a requirement for earth ground connection to dissipate static
electricity (ESD).
Product Specific Differences
V-Prox
: The V-Prox has a built-in HID proximity card reader that negates
the need for external Wiegand input, and provides one-to-one fingerprint
authentication. The V-Prox is capable of storing up to 4000 fingerprint
templates (a “template” is a mathematical model of the fingerprint that is
generated during enrollment). The device can be mounted on door Mullion
or single-gang electrical box.
V-Flex
: The V-Flex has all the capabilities and features of the V-Prox
described above except that there is no built-in HID proximity card reader.
Therefore the V-Flex requires an external Wiegand input signal. The V-
Flex is designed for 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
