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.
In use, the fingerprint authentication system will use the same
username and password as defined within the Windows operating
system. If no Windows password has been configured, you must do
this before starting the fingerprint registration process.
This sensor has the memory space for at least twenty fingerprint
patterns. You might be able to register more fingerprint patterns
depending on the sensor memory usage.
