Description
ucc.allow_biopin_us
er_rule
0 or 1
Set this parameter to “0”, to disable BIOPIN check
Set this parameter to “1”, to enable BIOPIN check
Set this parameter to “2”, to set PIN check
User Interface
The authentication process starts when the user presents his contactless card instead of placing
his fingers on the biometric sensor of the terminal. The card is placed near the antenna of the
contactless card reader. If it is compatible (same authentication keys, and mandatory data
present on card), the user is asked to enter Biometric PIN (BIOPIN) using keypad, instead of
requesting the user to place his finger on the biometric sensor.
Figure 328:
Authentication with user's BIOPIN on contactless card
The terminal compares the BIOPIN entered, with the BIOPIN read from user's card.
The authentication process is successful (identity confirmed) if the entered BIOPIN matches with
the BIOPIN stored on user’s card.
The result of the authentication process is notified to the user by a specific signal, as described
in “Terminal States” section.
The terminal reverts to its initial state, when the authentication process is completed,
irrespective of its outcome. This implies that the terminal will now look for a card detection.
Step 1: Present Card
Step 2: Enter BIOPIN
