Tips for a successful Installation
HandPunch
• Think of the HandPunch as a camera
• Clean the HandPunch before it gets dirty
• Use non-abrasive cleaners such as glass cleaners and a clean
non-abrasive cloth
• Make cleaning the HandPunch part of Janitorial program
• Do not remove the foam backing from the wall mounting plate
• Seal any holes made in the wall for wire routing, so that dust will
not blow into the HandPunch
Location
• Mount all HandPunchs in a network so that the top of the platen
is 40” off of the floor
• If an enrollment HandPunch is used make sure that it is placed
with the top platen 40” off of the floor and not sitting directly on
top of a desk, this will help to eliminate “bad enrollments”
• Mount the HandPunch so that it is not difficult or dangerous to
punch in and out.
• It is not recommended to mount the HandPunch in an area
where there is airborne dust, in the path of direct sunlight, or
where the HandPunch can be exposed to water or corrosive gas-

Ethernet Communications
• Plug in Ethernet card to network before power is applied to
Reader.
• Make sure that the IP address is leased from a DHCP Server.
• If the Reader can be pinged, but data cannot be sent back and
forth it is most likely a configuration issue i.e. one of the
addresses or Port 3001 is not open on one of the switches or
routers.
Enrollment
• Educate the Enrollee on Hand Geometry
• Explain enrollment process
