The default number of tries is 3. If a user exceeds the number of tries without a
valid hand read, the HandReader will refuse all subsequent attempts with that
user ID number. This means the user will be locked out until another user is
verified successfully.
Set Passwords
Use the Set Passwords command to change the passwords assigned to each of
the five command menus. To increase the security of the HandReader, the
password for any or all menus can be changed to a new number, up to 10 digits
long. This means that to enter a command menu, a user must have the correct
Authority Level (refer to page 65) and must enter the correct password.
Clear Memory
Use the Clear Memory command to clear the user data from the HandReader,
but retain the setup data. This allows you to clear the HandReader's user
database of all templates and ID numbers, but retain all HandReader setup
information. Typically, this is done when moving the HandReader to a new
location with different users but the same setup requirements.
Use this command with caution. Once user data is cleared from the
NOTE
HandReader's memory the user data is not recoverable.
Special Enroll
Allows a user to be enrolled such that the ID number is the primary criteria for
determining access. A hand read is required, but is not verified against any
stored identification data. A time zone value can also be applied to the Special
Enrollment ID number to increase access limits. The default is for no time zone
to be applied.
Special Enrollment affects the integrity of the HandReader network and should
NOTE
only be used as a last resort. Anyone who knows a Special Enroll ID number is
granted access when the ID number is used. Before specially enrolling a user,
try to alleviate verification problems by adjusting the individual user's reject
threshold (see page 64).
