Points to note about the FingerPrint Utility software
The user should back up the user profile information when using the 
functions provided in this software to encrypt files or folders. If this software 
or the user information is deleted without backing up the user profile 
information, the encrypted files will no longer be accessible. In addition, if 
the backup data is not used, the user will not be identified as the same user 
even if the same name is used again in user enrolment.
Please refer to the following procedures to back up.
If Windows Vista™’s file encryption function EFS (Encryption File System) 
is used to encrypt a file, the file cannot be further encrypted using the 
encryption function of this software. In the help file, it is stated that this 
softwares Password Bank function can be used for the Internet and general 
applications. However, the Internet Password Bank function in the 
FingerPrint utility provided in this computer can only be used with IE (Internet 
Explorer).
Set up Procedure
Please use the following procedure when first using FingerPrint 
authentication.
FingerPrint Registration
You should initially enroll the required authentication data using the ‘User 
Enrollment’ Wizard.
1. Click Start followed by All Programs followed by Protector Suite QL 
and then click User Enrollment.
 
2. Click Next.
You are able to backup saved FingerPrint data and information within the 
PasswordBank by using the import or Export User Data facility under the 
FingerPrint management software. However, please be aware that any 
encrypted files cannot be backup within FileSafe using this function - in 
these instances it is recommended that you backup these files to external 
media using standard file copy processes.
■In use, the FingerPrint authentication system will use the same username 
and password as defined within Windows operating system. If no 
Windows password has been configured, you must do this before 
starting the FingerPrint registration process.
■Up to twenty-one FingerPrint patterns can be registered on this sensor.
You are also able to start the User Enrollment Wizard by using the following 
method.
■Click the Protector Suite QL icon in the Task Bar.
■Swipe your finger across the FingerPrint Sensor.

ensure that the same Windows username is displayed before entering 
the appropriate password into the Enter you password field. Once this 
has been done, click Next.

security function, and then click Next.
9. At Finalization screen, click Finish - this will complete the FingerPrint 
registration process.
Window Logon via FingerPrint Authentication
If required, you are also able to use FingerPrint authentication in place of 
the usual Windows logon process using your username and password. This 
method is specially useful where there are many users using the same 
computer as it removes the need for actual user selection when the system 
is started.
FingerPrint Authentication Procedure
1. Start up the computer.
2. At the Logon Authorization screen, choose any of the enrolled fingers 
and swipe the FingerPrint on the sensor - If the authentication process 
is successful, the user will automatically be logged into Windows.
If the FingerPrint authentication process fails you will need to log into 
Windows using the appropriate username and password. In addition, you 
should use this manual login process if Finger Print authentication fails for 
three consecutive tries - a warning message will be displayed when 
authentication is not normal or is not successful within a fixed duration.

authorization, you will be required to provide authorization information 
such as a User Password (and, if applicable, the HDD (Hard Disk Drive)
