Press M/OK or M/↵ and navigate to the Edit option
The Enroll FP (Fingerprint) option will be pre-selected. Press OK
Ask the user to place their finger on the green, illuminated fingerprint scanner. The Terminal will display an image of the fingerprint, and assign it a 'Quality' rating. It's best to aim for 80% or more, as this minimises the risk of errors in the future. Each fingerprint needs to be registered three times, and the terminal will display a 'tick' to confirm each successful registration. Users should remove the finger between each registration.

Once the first finger has been registered, press OK to continue to the next. We recommend registering at least two fingers per employee.
When all required fingers have been registered, press ESC to return to the previous screen. To return to the list of users press ESC again and finally OK to save. You should now see a figure detailing the number of registered fingerprints against the name of the person you have enrolled.

Users can start clocking as soon as their Fingerprint profiles are registered. If some people are having difficulty it's usually down to the quality of the
initial registration. Particularly dirty hands can confuse the Terminal, so we'd recommend asking users to wash their hands before clocking if they're working with them during the day.

Tips and Common Errors
All registrations should look similar to the image on the right. In this example the entire fingerprint is clear and defined, with no smudges or distortions.
It's best to be gentle but firm, and important not to move or roll the finger until the quality rating has been given.
In this example only the tip of the finger has registered.
It's important to register the entire fingerprint, applying pressure evenly on the reader.
In this example the fingerprint is distorted due to movement or rolling the finger during registration.
It's important to keep the finger stationary, and not press too hard.
Each fingerprint is registered
3 times. If these registrations differ significantly the user may have trouble clocking. It's important to be consistent across all three registrations of each fingerprint.
