It is necessary to first enroll your fingerprint with the TrueSuite Access
Manager application prior to enabling and configuring the fingerprint Pre-
OS feature.
Check that your 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” and click OK.
The modified configuration for fingerprint Pre-OS feature becomes effective
the next time the system is booted up.
Fingerprint Single 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.
■ It is necessary to register the User Password before using the
fingerprint Pre-OS feature and its extended function, the fingerprint
Single Sign-On feature. Please use TOSHIBA HW Setup to register the
User Password.
■ If you fail fingerprint authentication more than five times, you must
enter the User Password or Supervisor Password manually to start the
computer.
■ When swiping, please do it slowly and at a constant speed. If this does
not improve the authentication rate, please adjust the speed.
■ If there are any changes in the environment or settings related to
authorization, you will be required to provide authorization information
such as a User Password and HDD password.
