type, each finger print has a central area around which the remainder of the

pattern is distributed. This central area is the core of the finger print. Best

performance is achieved when the core of the finger print is placed in the center

of the sensor detection surface. It is essential to place the core of finger print

inside the sensor area to obtain a successful image capture of the finger print.

It is most advisable in real practice to register (enroll) for each ID more

than 1 finger and even better to register fingers from both hands into the system.

In this way, the identification procedure can less likely be obstructed even in

case of accidental injury. Please note that the finger print sensor is not suitable

for taking the finger print image of an infant.

installation except setting up the USB keyboard to be enabled in system CMOS

setup. However for the special MSR type in SD100 that utilizes a MSR

connector, it relies on the controller inside the MSR port of the host to

consolidate the MSR data into KB port of the system.

Besides the interface options there are also reader head options applicable

to MSR in these security devices. The reader head can be JIS II type or one of

the possible configurations in ISO standard (tracks 1 & 2, 2 & 3, 1 & 2 & 3). For

ISO MSR, some parameters on data readout can be set by jumper setting or by

software provided by Posiflex as below. For MSR to read card of AAMVA and

CA DMV, the reader head must be 3 tracks ISO type and it must be on KB4000

or KP100 or it has to be the USB interface type in SD100.

To manipulate the ISO MSR

in SD100, one has to alter the jumper

settings on the controller board in the
