Windows Logon via Fingerprint Authentication

In place of the usual Windows logon by ID and password, fingerprint

authentication also allows logon to Windows.
This is useful especially when many users are using the PCs, as user

selection can be skipped.

Fingerprint Authentication Procedure

1. Start up the computer.
2. The Logon Authorization screen is displayed. Choose any of the

enrolled fingers and swipe the fingerprint on the sensor. If

authentication is successful, the user will be logged on to Windows.

Fingerprint boot authentication and Single Sign-on feature

Overview about Fingerprint boot authentication

The fingerprint authentication system can be used to replace the keyboard

based User Password authentication system when booting up.
If you do not want to use the fingerprint authentication system for password

authentication when booting up, but prefer to use the keyboard-based

system instead, click the user’s tile when the Fingerprint System

Authentication screen is displayed. This will switch the password input

screen across to the keyboard-based one.

If the fingerprint authentication fails, please logon using the Windows

logon password.

Please logon using the Windows logon password if the fingerprint

authentication failed for five times. To logon using the Windows logon

password, enter the Windows logon password at the [Welcome]

screen as normal.

A warning message will be displayed when authentication is abnormal

or authentication is not successful within a fixed duration.
