  • Biometric transactions: Kronos Touch ID Plus

    Templates

    The Enroll Employee transaction creates a template for an employees finger. A template is a mathematical representation of a fingertip that is stored on the InTouch device, in an encrypted format. The fingerscan device uses a composite of three different images of an employees fingertip to create the template. The Kronos Touch ID Plus technology does not store actual fingertip images. Furthermore, the mathematical representations of the fingertips cannot be used to re-create the original images.

    Each employee can enroll two fingersa primary finger and, if required, a secondary finger. InTouch uses these templates to perform biometric verification or biometric identification when employees perform a fingerscan.

  • Terminology

    A finger contains a pattern of ridges, with typically one innermost ridge that curves in on itself, near the center. The fingerscan device uses the unique characteristics of a fingertips ridges to construct the template.

  • Managers: Before you attempt to enroll employees, practice enrolling yourself several times, and observe how finger placement, pressure, and moisture affect the scan results. Then enroll a small group of employees to familiarize yourself with the process. Keep future enrollment groups as small as practical.

    Enroll Employee

    To enroll an employee for biometric validation:

    1. Tap Enroll Employee.

    2. Enter the employee ID and tap Enter.

    mdominicTypewritten Text2g.6

  • The Biometric Enrollment Wizard guides employees through the enrollment process.

    Managers: If the employee is already enrolled, the system offers you the option of re-enrolling the employees primary or secondary finger.

    Select Finger to Enroll

    On the Select Finger to Enroll screen, tap the button that corresponds to the finger you are enrolling. A check mark indicates a finger that you have previously enrolled. In order of preference, select your index finger, middle finger, or thumb. Enroll your ring finger or pinky only if you cannot successfully enroll the other fingers. If you do tap the ring finger or pinky, a warning message appears; you can then continue or change the finger.

    Note: Ensure that your finger is clean, and not too dry.

    mdominicTypewritten Text2g.7

  • Capture Fingerscan

    The system prompts you to place your finger on the sensor.

    Directly face the timeclock so that you can comfortably place your finger on the sensorwithout awkwardly extending your arm or hand.

    Position your finger core above the center of the sensor.

    Place your finger flat on the sensor. Do not twist, rotate, or slide your finger while it is on the sensor.

    Apply firm, even pressure. If you apply too little pressure, the sensor might not detect your finger. If you apply too much pressure, the image might be too dark. In either case, the enrollment can fail.

    Hold your finger on the sensor until the image frame turns green, the LED flashes green, and the timeclock emits a tone; then remove it.

    mdominicTypewritten Text2g.8

  • The system grades the scan as Good, Fair, or Poor, and prompts you to re-scan the same finger.

    Administrators: When an employee places a finger on the sensor, the timeclock displays a live image of the fingertip. The image helps the employee position the fingertip on the sensor to achieve a Good enrollment.

    mdominicTypewritten Text2g.9

  • If your finger is not positioned correctly, the system instructs you to reposition it for a successful scan, as in the following illustration.

    Note: If the system directs you to reposition your finger, do not slide the finger into place. Rather, lift your finger from the sensor and then place the finger in the recommended position.

    When instructed, re-scan the same finger. Repeat the Capture Fingerscan process until you have obtained three scans. The system uses the three images to create a single template.

  • The results pages for the three scans include the following information:

    The results pages vary, depending on the enrollment score: Good, Fair, or Poor.

    Good Enrollment

    After a few seconds, this screen times out. Go to Confirm Fingerscan.

    Parameter Description

    Quality Score A measure of the useful data that the sensor detected in the fingerscan. Some fingers have indistinct ridges, scars, or other characteristics that can lower the quality score. The system uses the following scale: Good: 60 or greater Fair: 4059 Poor: 39 or less

    Content Score Ignore this value.Threshold A measure of how closely an employees live fingerscan

    must match the stored enrollment template. There are four threshold settings: High, Normal, Low, and None.

    mdominicTypewritten Text2g.11

  • Fair Enrollment

    Do one of the following:

    Tap Retry. Return to Capture Fingerscan. Re-scan the same finger, and try to achieve a Good enrollment.

    Tap Change Finger. Return to Select Finger to Enroll and select a different finger.

    If you have tried enrolling each finger, without achieving a Good Enrollment, tap Accept Best. Go to Confirm Fingerscan.

    mdominicTypewritten Text2g.12

  • Poor Enrollment

    Note: A low Quality score might indicate that your finger is too dry. Moisten it using the PreScan fingertip enhancer pad.

    Do one of the following:

    Tap Retry. Return to Capture Fingerscan. Re-scan the same finger, and try to achieve a Good enrollment.

    Tap Change Finger. Return to Select Finger to Enroll and select a different finger.

    If you have tried enrolling each finger, without achieving a Good Enrollment, tap Accept Best. The following screen appears.

    mdominicTypewritten Text2g.13

  • If you tap Continue, and thereby accept a Poor enrollment, you can use only biometric verification with employee ID at the timeclock.

    Confirm Fingerscan

    At the Confirm Fingerscan screen, re-scan the same finger that you used in the Capture Fingerscan step. The biometric device compares the previously captured fingerscan image (or template) with your current live fingerscan.

    The following sections describe the possible results of the enrollment test.

    mdominicTypewritten Text2g.14

  • Accepted

    If you have enrolled only one finger, the system prompts you to enroll another, secondary finger.

    Tap one of the following:

    Yes: Return to Select Finger to Enroll, and select another finger.

    No: The enrollment process is completed.

    mdominicTypewritten Text2g.15

  • Failed

    Do one of the following:

    Tap Retry. Return to Capture Fingerscan. Re-scan the same finger, and try to achieve an Accepted enrollment test.

    Tap Change Finger. Return to Select Finger to Enroll and select a different finger.

    Managers: If the employee fails the enrollment test three consecutive times, please enter a HEAT ticketto have the employee enrolled for special handling.
