Fingerprint USB Flash Drive
User Manual
Thank you for choosing our Fingerprint USB Flash Drive. This device integrates biometric identification technology and password for secure data
storage. Designed for those demanding the highest level of data protection, the drive can safeguard sensitive data against unauthorized access
attempts with comfortable fingerprint authentication. Data stored in the secure partition is safely protected and can only be accessed with regis-
tered fingerprints (or password as backup).
The physical memory on the stick is divided into two parts called partitions. There is the Public partition which can be accessed by any user.
And there is the Secure partition which can be accessed by registered users only. The Secure partition is invisible to unregistered users. It will
be unlocked by using the fingerprint. You can change the ratio between Public and Secure ratio (see 4.) An extra small part is used for the setup
software which is recognized by a Windows computer as CD drive.

2. Fingerprint Management Software
When using the Fingerprint Flash drive for the first time, please run the setup utility which is stored on the USB Flash Drive. This application is
designed to set a password, enroll fingerprints and manage users.
To run the fingerprint management application on your computer
Connect the device to an available USB port on your computer. The device should be recognized automatically.
Click “CD Drive” in “My computer”
Double click the app icon “FPDISK. exe”
to run the application.
Note:
Some security software may stop the app from running, please confirm if asked for permission.
If a fingerprint has not been set up yet, only the Public partition can be accessed using a mac OS or Linux system. Please use the setup utility
under Windows first. Then the Secure partition can be unlocked and accessed using the fingerprint on a mac OS or Linux system.
After an administrator has been registered, FPDISK will ask for authentication on each start of the software.
3. Registration for the administrators
Only when the registration of administrator’s account is complete, you as an administrator can create accounts and enroll fingerprints for general
users. Afterwards only an administrator can run the FPDISK utility and can change the partition size.
3.1 How to set Password for Administrator
Click on “Register” and enter a password. The password is used as backup only. We recommend to use a random and secure password with at
least 12 characters for optimum security. Please note the password and keep it in a safe place! Enter the same password a second time to make
sure it is correct. Then click “Next” and enter a unique name for the administrator, eg. your forename. Click on “Next” to enroll a fingerprint.
3.2 To enroll Fingerprint for Administrator
Please follow the instructions on the screen.
After you have enrolled your administrator’s fingerprint you can use your
fingertip to access the FPDSIK tool and to unlock the Secure partition.
