transfer rates, such as some digital video cameras.
F INGER P RINT READER ( OPTIONAL ) — Helps to keep your Dell™ computer secure.
When you slide your finger over the reader, it uses your unique fingerprint to
authenticate your user identity. The controlling security management software,
DigitalPersona Personal, displays a fingerprint reader icon in the system tray that
shows whether the reader is ready for use, and provides convenient access to a few
major components and features on its menu. When the reader is ready to scan
fingerprints, the reader icon appears normally. Otherwise, a red X displays over the
reader icon. The icon also flashes in red color when a fingerprint scan is being
processed.
For more information on how to activate and use DigitalPersona Personal, click Start →
Programs → DigitalPersona Personal. The following sub-items are available in this
menu:
• Fingerprint Enrollment Wizard - To enroll your fingerprint
• Fingerprint Logon Manager - To add, remove or modify properties related to
Fingerprint Logons
• Import and Export Wizard - To export fingerprint information into a file for the further
import on another computer, or for the use as a user-level backup. This functionality
allows avoiding the need to re-enter the data when upgrading your computer or while
adding a fingerprint reader to a second computer. However, you need to enroll your
fingerprints on the computer that you are exporting the DigitalPersona Personal data to.
