Operating Basics
Fingerprint Single-Swipe Sign-On feature
General
This is a feature that allows the user to complete the authentication for both
the User Password (and optionally, the HDD user and Supervisor
passwords) and logging on to Windows using only one fingerprint
authentication when booting up. It is necessary to register the User
Password and Windows Logon password before using the fingerprint Pre-
OS feature and this fingerprint Single Sign-On feature. Please use
TOSHIBA HW Setup to register your User Password.
Only one fingerprint authentication is required to replace the User
Password (and, if selected, the HDD user and Supervisor passwords) and
Windows Logon password.
How to enable fingerprint Single-Swipe Sign-On feature
It is necessary to first enroll your fingerprint with the TrueSuite Access
Maganer application prior to enabling and configuring the fingerprint Single
Sign-On feature. Check that the fingerprint is enrolled before configuring
the settings.
1. Swipe your finger across the fingerprint sensor. Or enter Windows
password and click Next.
2. Click settings.
3. The Administrator Settings screen is displayed. Place a checkmark
in “Enable Pre-OS Fingerprint Authentication”.
4. Then, place a checkmark in “Enable Single Sign-On Fingerprint
Authentication” and click OK.
The modified configuration for the fingerprint Single Sign-On feature
becomes effective the next time the system is booted up.
Fingerprint utility limitations
TOSHIBA does not guarantee that the fingerprint utility technology will be
completely secure or error-free. TOSHIBA does not guarantee that the
fingerprint utility will accurately screen out unauthorized users at all times.
TOSHIBA is not liable for any failure or damage that might arise out of the
use of the fingerprint software or utility.
The fingerprint sensor compares and analyzes the unique
characteristics in a fingerprint. However, there may be instances where
certain users are unable to register their fingerprints due to insufficient
unique characteristics in their fingerprints.
The recognition success rate may differ from user to user.
