Fingerprint Sensor Device

INTRODUCING THE OPTIONAL
FINGERPRINT SENSOR DEVICE

Your system may have an optional fingerprint sensor
device on the side of the display opposite the function
buttons. (See Figure 1-2 on page 3 for location)

Figure B-1 Fingerprint sensor

With a fingerprint sensor, you can avoid having to enter
a username and password every time you want to:

Log onto Windows

Recover from suspend mode

Cancel a password-protected screen saver

Log into homepages that require a username and pass-
word

After you have “enrolled” - or registered - your finger-
print, you can simply swipe your fingertip over the
sensor for the system to recognize you.

The fingerprint sensor uses Softex OmniPass which
provides password management capabilities to
Microsoft Windows operating systems. OmniPass
enables you to use a "master password" for all Windows,
applications, and on-line passwords.

OmniPass requires users to authenticate themselves
using the fingerprint sensor before granting access to the
Windows desktop. This device results in a secure
authentication system for restricting access to your
computer, applications, web sites, and other password-
protected resources.

OmniPass presents a convenient graphical user inter-
face, through which you can securely manage pass-
words, users, and multiple identities for each user.

GETTING STARTED

This section guides you through the preparation of your
system for the OmniPass fingerprint recognition
application. You will be led through the OmniPass
installation process. You will also be led through the
procedure of enrolling your first user into OmniPass.

INSTALLING OMNIPASS

If OmniPass has already been installed on your system,
skip this section and go directly to “User Enrollment” on
page 70. You can determine whether OmniPass has
already been installed by checking to see if the following
are present:

The presence of the gold key-shaped OmniPass icon in
the system tray at the bottom right of the screen.

The presence of the Softex program group in the
Programs
group of the Start menu

System Requirements
The OmniPass application requires space on your hard
drive; it also requires specific Operating Systems (OS’s).
The minimum requirements are as follows:

Windows XP Home Edition, Windows XP Profes-
sional or Windows 2000 operating system

At least 35 MB available hard disk space

Installing the OmniPass Application
If OmniPass is already installed on your system, go to
“User Enrollment” on page 70. Otherwise continue with
this section on software installation.

To install OmniPass on your system you must:

1. Insert the installation media for the OmniPass

application into the appropriate drive. If you are
installing from CD-ROM or DVD-ROM, you must
find and launch the OmniPass installation program
(setup.exe) from the media.

2. Follow the directions provided in the OmniPass

installation program. Specify a location to which
you would like OmniPass installed

.

It is recom-

mended that you NOT install OmniPass in the root
directory (e.g. C:\).

3. Once OmniPass has completed installation you will

be prompted to restart you system. Once your
system has rebooted you will be able to use
OmniPass. If you choose not to restart immediately
after installation, OmniPass will not be available for
use until the next reboot.

The installation program automatically places an icon
(Softex OmniPass) in the Windows Control Panel as
well as a golden key shaped icon in the taskbar.

For installation, OmniPass requires that the
user installing OmniPass have
administrative privileges to the system. If
your current user does not have
administrative privileges, log out and then
log in as an administrator before
proceeding with OmniPass installation.
