Tips for a successful Installation
HandPunch
• Think of the HandPunch as a camera
• Clean the HandPunch before it gets dirty
• Use non-abrasive cleaners such as glass cleaners and non-abrasive and
clean cloths
• Make cleaning the HandPunch part of Janitorial program
• Do not remove the foam backing from the wall mounting plate
• Seal any holes made in the wall for wire routing, so that dust will not blow
into the HandPunch
Location
• Mount all HandPunchs in a network so that the top of the platen is 40” off
of the floor
• If an enrollment HandPunch is used make sure that it is placed with the
top platen 40” off of the floor and not sitting directly on top of a desk, this
will help to eliminate “bad enrollments”
• Mount the HandPunch so that it is not difficult or dangerous to verify then
open the door
• It is not recommended to mount the HandPunch in an area where there is
airborne dust, in the path of direct sunlight, or where the HandPunch can
be exposed to water or corrosive gasses

• Explain enrollment process
• Train Enrollee on hand placement
-Practice placing hand on platen
-Rotate rings to be stone-up
-Make sure hand is flat on platen

• Let the enrollee enter in their own ID number during the enrollment
process, this forces the Enroller to step aside allowing the Enrollee to
stand in front of the HandPunch helping to eliminate “bad enrollments”
• If an enrollment HandReader is used make sure that it is placed with the
top of the platen 40” off of the floor and not sitting directly on top of a desk,
