The document details the integration of ekey finger scanners with Crestron and Beckhoff automation systems, highlighting the benefits of security, access control, and personalized scene selection. Specific part numbers and descriptions for various mounting options are provided.
The finger scanner should be positioned to facilitate easy finger swiping, improving recognition. It is suitable for both right and left-handed users. Ensure ample space in front of the scanner to avoid straining. The scanner's ergonomic use depends on correct mounting height: wall-mounted at 135 cm, outlet-mounted at 100/155 cm, and integra/arte at 155 cm.
Optimal detection requires a good finger swipe technique. Stretch all fingers, place the scanning finger on the swipe area with the first phalanx over the sensor, and swipe evenly with moderate pressure. The pressure varies with skin type; soft skin needs less pressure, dry skin more. Practice to find the best method.
Best fingers for scanning are the middle, index, and ring fingers. Avoid using the thumb and little finger. Use the hand you write with for better sensitivity. Clean fingers without cuts are ideal. Store one finger from each hand for convenience and backup.
Children should use their index finger. For difficult scans, store the same finger multiple times to increase detection likelihood. The software adapts to changes like finger growth or minor injuries.
Avoid mechanical stress on the sensor. Do not scratch or clean with abrasive materials. Damaged sensors need replacement.
For assistance, contact ekey support in various countries. Additional resources, including wiring diagrams, are available on the ekey website.
The document lists part numbers for service kits and tools, detailing their use for software updates and maintenance.
