Privaris plusID Manager Operators Manual V1.1
If the plusID device will be used in place of passwords for computer logon in a Microsoft
domain environment, follow the instructions below.
With the device connected via USB to the plusID Manager application:
1. Select “Settings” from the menu tree. (See plusID Manager Operator’s Manual for
the distinction between “Settings” and “Default Device Settings” menu options.)
2. Under “User Logon Settings,” select the desired authentication mode for logon:
Biometric and PIN or Biometric Only, and press “Apply Changes.”
3. If Biometric Only is chosen, instruct the user to enter “1234” when prompted for a
PIN during logon. Skip steps 4 – 9 below. Their plusID device is now ready to be
used for logon.
4. If Biometric and PIN is chosen, select “PINs” from the menu tree.
5. Select the “User” tab. This screen sets the User PIN required for logon and stores it
on the plusID device.
6. Enter the current (default) User PIN: 1234.
! This is different from the Administrator PIN that was entered when the device was
registered.
7. Ask the user to select a new User PIN (from four to eight letters, numbers and/or
characters).
8. Allow the user access to the keyboard to privately enter their User PIN.
9. Press “Change PIN” for the new User PIN to take effect.
* Logon requires Microsoft Windows 2000 Server or later configured as a domain controller and running
Microsoft Certificate Services, and the Privaris minidriver (included with Privaris plusID Manager
software). See Appendix E for a full description of system requirements.
! If the device is going to be used for logical/IT access only, and it has already been enrolled,
disconnect the plusID device from the computer, hand it to the user along with the USB cable
and plusID Quick Start Guide that was enclosed in the device box. Device issuance is
complete. If the device is also going to be used for physical (door) access, see Section 7.
9. Settings
The “Settings” screen includes three tabs across the top for access to Device Settings, Device
Utilities, and Reset Options.
a. Device Settings
The first tab of the “Settings” screen, “Device Settings,” (Figure 11) lists the settings that
will be applied to the plusID device connected to the plusID Manager software. Unless
changed, these settings will be the same as the “Default Device Settings.” Changing
these settings override the Default Device Settings only for the device that is connected.
