INTRODUCTION TO THIS MANUAL 1 Introduction to This Manual This manual provides a simple step-by-step procedure for installing a PIV-Station Contact or Contactless CHUID Reader. It covers the entire process of connecting the reader, defining the network, and enrolling users. This manual should be used in conjunction with the Bioscrypt provided PIV-Station Quick Start Guide and the PIV-Station Operator’s Manual.
EARTH GROUND 2 Earth Ground It is extremely critical for proper operation of the Reader that the earth ground be properly connected to avoid damage by ESD. Connect the terminal labeled EGND to earth ground. This wire should not be connected to the neutral, the cable shield, or any other wire except earth ground. See Figure 1 (PIV-Station Contactless CHUID Reader shown) below.

STEPS IN A COMPREHENSIVE INSTALLATION 4 Steps in a Comprehensive Installation Every installation is unique. Sometimes the issues are well defined and can be handled in a standard fashion; sometimes the issues are very specific and may not be immediately recognizable. This document addresses the issues that may be faced with during a standard installation.
PLANNING THE INSTALLATION 5 Planning the Installation Planning the installation is probably the single most important aspect to a successful installation. By the time you are installing the system all of these details should already be known. If not, take a moment to go through them now before beginning installation of any Readers. Planning for installation must take in to consideration: the access controller, the door locks, the readers, and the need for a network.
UNPACK ALL ITEMS 6 Unpack All Items 6.
COMPONENT INSTALLATION 7 Component Installation 7.1 Basic Component Installation The PIV-Station readers do not have built-in relays that would allow them to control a door lock, and therefore, they must be part of a larger access control system. System component selection is very specific to each installation but a minimum system would consist of a finger-scan reader mounted on or near an access point, an electric lock, cabling, and the access controller.
COMPONENT INSTALLATION Spec RS-485 RS-232 Mode of Operation: Differential DC Coupled Single-ended DC Coupled DC Isolation: No No Max. Distance: 4000 ft.* 150 ft.* Number of Readers on one line: 31 1 Max. Data Rate 56 kbps 56 kbps* *Communications distances are dependent on baud rate (bps). For example, with RS-232 at 9600 baud, a distance of 150 feet is possible with shielded cable, but at 56 k-baud (kbps) a maximum of 20 feet is recommended. Table 1: RS-485 / RS-232 Communications Comparison 7.2.
COMPONENT INSTALLATION 7.3.1 RS-485 Cable Lengths The total length of the communication cable (adding up all of the segments of the run) should not exceed 1200 meters (4000 feet) as outlined in the specification for RS-485. Although the RS-485 specification calls out a maximum cable length of 1200 meters and a maximum baud rate well above that of the PIV-Station reader, a more conservative system should be configured for no more than 1000 meters and running at a baud rate of 9600 bits per second.
INSTALL SOFTWARE 8 Install Software 8.
INSTALL SOFTWARE 8.4 Post-Install Software Configuration Once the installation is complete, a shortcut icon (See Figure 5) for the Administration Software will appear on your desktop. This icon will also be found under Start Menu > Program Files > Bioscrypt> VeriAdmin. Figure 5: VeriAdmin desktop icon When you launch the software you will see one of two possible welcome screens. • If re-installing or updating VeriAdmin, you will see the dialog shown below (See Figure 6).
INSTALL SOFTWARE 8.5 USB Driver Install V-Station products feature a USB interface for the Aux port, utilizing a Serial-to-USB converter (CP210x USB to UART Bridge). In order to use this interface, the proper drivers must be installed. You should install the drivers BEFORE attaching any of the Readers to your computer's USB port for the first time. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Log into the PC as any user with Administrative privileges. Locate the folder USB_Driver_CP210x_Bridge on the installation CD.
CONFIGURE PORTS 9 Configure Ports Bioscrypt PIV-Station readers communicate with the VeriAdmin software through the Host port or the USB Auxiliary (USB) port. Cables can be connected to either of the ports on the PIV-Station reader, but the reader can communicate through only one port at a time. The default settings are shown in Table 3.
CONFIGURE PORTS Click the Use checkbox to enable a COM port for serial communication. The Auto checkbox will auto-negotiate baud rates, except when broadcasting over an RS-485 network.

MOUNTING 11 Mounting 11.1 Mounting Readers The PIV-Station readers are designed to mount on either a double-gang electrical box or any flat surface. Consult with local professionals regarding the building and safety codes that will affect your installation. Bioscrypt provides wall plate for these applications. The following section describes the proper PIV-Station mounting. The mounting plate is detailed below in Figure 10.
MOUNTING Use the following procedure. Mounting is shown in Figure 11 below (V-Pass FX mount shown but procedure is same). 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Align reader body with wall plate. Slide reader body down, locking tabs into wall plate. Set reader body in place with Phillips-head #4-40 screw. Attach Aux. port door to bottom of reader with a twisting motion. Secure door to reader with pin-in-hex #6-32 screw. Secure reader to bracket with second pin-in-hex #6-32 screw on bottom right.

POWER DISTRIBUTION & READER HOOKUP 12 Power Distribution & Reader Hookup Each of the PIV-Station readers offers RS-232, RS-485, and USB communication channels for communicating with a PC or host controller. Each reader also uses the Wiegand protocol to interface with Access Control equipment, such as access controllers (outputs) or additional readers (inputs). The PIV-Station product will rely on power provided to the system for operation.
POWER DISTRIBUTION & READER HOOKUP The readers are connected to other components of an integrated system through the rear of the reader. This is made up of the connections described in Table 5.

POWER DISTRIBUTION & READER HOOKUP 12.3 Wiegand Connections Wiegand output lines should be connected to a Wiegand compatible controller. When connecting Wiegand output to a controller, you must make sure that the connection is using Data0, Data1, and a common Ground reference. See Table 5 above for the wiring of the Wiegand and Figure 14 for the layout on the back of the PIVStation. 12.
SYSTEM TURN-UP PROCEDURES 13 System Turn-Up Procedures System turn-up must follow a step-by-step procedure to avoid difficult troubleshooting. Never wire up a system and apply power to it all at once. 13.1 System Turn up Overview The following steps should be followed in order: 1. Do not apply power to any readers. 2. Check all wiring and reader configurations. 3. Disconnect all readers from communication line. 4. Check the supply voltage for correct voltage. 5.
USER INTERFACE 14 User Interface Once the system is installed using the PIV-Station is a simple procedure. 1. On the Contactless model, users simply place their PIV card on the reader. 2. On the Contact reader model, initiate verifications by inserting the PIV card into the reader. o The unit will prompt for PIN. o When the screen says Place Finger they may then place their finger. 3. The LCD will then say either “Accepted” (top LED will turn green) or “Rejected” (top LED turns red).
USER INTERFACE Figure 18: Position Finger on Sensor 5. Lower the finger onto the sensor and apply moderate pressure as if pressing a computer key. Too much pressure may cause smudging of the fingerprint. Too little pressure may not allow the sensor to recognize the presence of a finger. Figure 19: Apply Correct Pressure 6. Keep the finger on the sensor until the top LED turns green. Figure 20: Wait for Green LED 7. Lift the finger up and off the sensor. Figure 21: Lift Finger Up and Off Sensor 8.
USER INTERFACE Cover the entire area of the sensor with the fingertip to provide the most information. Figure 22: Cover Entire Sensor Do not touch the sensor as if pressing a button or it will create an image that lacks core data. Figure 23: Incorrect Placement Place the finger as close to the center position of the sensor to increase acceptance rate.
USER INTERFACE Figure 25: Do Not Rotate Finger Part # 430-00186-00 PIV-Station Installation Guide 32 ©Copyright 2007, Bioscrypt Inc. All rights reserved.
USER INTERFACE 1.3. Center the core A finger core is the area located within the inner most re-curving ridge. Normally it is located in the middle of the finger. When enrolling, place the finger on the sensor where the entire core can clearly be seen in the Fingerprint Image window. The green dots represent the center of the core. Every attempt should be made to ensure that the core is positioned in the center of the captured image.
