• Maximum contact area: Place your finger to completely cover the scanner
with maximum contact surface.
• Place on the center: Position the center of your fingerprint (core) at the
center of scanner.
After placing your finger on the scanner, lift it up and place it down again. You
should slightly move your finger between each reading. Repeat this action
several times (normally between 12 and 16 times) until the fingerprint is
enrolled.
Fingerprint Login
NOTE: The fingerprint login process can take a while. This is because the system
has to check hardware devices and security configuration before initiating the
fingerprint scanner.
With an enrolled fingerprint, the user can log on by tapping the Fingerprint option in
Windows login screen and then placing the finger on the scanner. The user can
also dismiss the lock screen with the fingerprint.
The fingerprint scanner has 360-degree readability. You can place your finger in any
orientation for the scanner to recognize an enrolled fingerprint.
If fingerprint login attempts fail three times, you will be switched to password login.
