Fingerprint Keyless Entry

Overview

The system uses biometric technology that enables an
authorized user to gain access by scanning their fingerprint.
The sensor strip on the unit makes a numeric template of the
fingerprint that is unique to that user. The unit’s memory can
store up to four fingerprints.

•

The term “enroll” refers to scanning the fingerprint so the
device will recognize the user.

•

The term “swipe” refers to the movement of the finger across
the sensor strip.

•

The term “LED” stands for Light Emitting Diode. There are
6 LEDs located on the Fingerprint Keyless Entry.

When unit is on, it is programmed to shut off after a short
period of time. The unit’s sensor strip is sensitive so it is
important to read the Tips for Success before attempting to
use the Fingerprint Keyless Entry.
