1 Open the plusID Manager software application.
2 Hand the user their new plusID device.
3 Review the “How to Swipe” instructions with the user, letting them practice swiping
until they can do so properly and comfortably (see Section III.5.b. or the Help section
from the main menu)
4 Insert the largest end of the mini-USB cable, packaged with the plusID
device, into the computer's USB port, and the smallest end into the port at the
base of the plusID.
5 For each new device the “Device Registration” screen will appear (Figure 3).
i. Enter the user's first and last name. Employee number is optional,
but recommended. Employee number is any unique identifier, i.e., an
official employee i.d., or social security number. Note: None of this
user information is stored on the device. It is stored only in the plusID
Manager’s database for record keeping purposes.
ii. Each device is shipped with a default Administrator PIN of 4321.
Enter the default Administrator PIN as the “Current PIN.” Before
entering a new PIN, see the warning below. The new Administrator
PIN can be from four to eight letters, numbers and/or
characters.
! It is highly recommended that each organization select a single Administrator PIN
for all plusID devices. This PIN should be selected by an Officer of the company or by
Security Personnel. The Administrator PIN should be treated as a corporate secret and
guarded in the same manner as other keys/passwords that grant access to valuable
resources. If the Administrator PIN were ever to be compromised, issued devices would
be susceptible to manipulation by outside organizations, and the security of corporate
physical and logical assets would be placed at risk. There is no way to reset the
Administrator PIN. For more information on the Administrator PIN, see #9 under
Getting Started.
d. Enroll the First Thumb
Note: Sit near the user to watch closely and ensure that they are following the
Enrollment Guidelines. An enrollment cannot be stopped once begun, but can be
easily erased and redone.
1. Always enroll the primary thumb first. Ask if the user is right or left handed.
! If the plusID will be used only for computer logon, it may be advisable to enroll the
primary index finger (in place of the thumb), assuming that the device will regularly be
positioned flat on a desk connected to a computer, as opposed to being held and
operated in-hand.
1. Select “Enrollment” from the menu tree.
2. Select the “Enroll” button from the Enrollment screen
3. To initiate enrollment, select the respective thumb from the on-screen hand
diagram.
