Fingerprint Authentication Utility
Elevate Administrative Privileges for User
❖
Elevate administrative privileges for user.—By default, the
operating system assumes you are a user and not an
administrator, and renders most of the system settings in the
Control Center gray and unavailable. To access these system
settings, click “Elevate administrative privileges” on the main
Fingerprint Control Center window. Clicking this option
elevates your account from that of a standard user to an
administrator, and allows you to access all of the system
settings in the Control Center. It also removes this option from
the main Fingerprint Control Center window.
Password Bank
The Password Bank stores registration and logon information for
Web sites and dialogs, helping to automate the task of entering this
information.
You enter the required information only once, during Web page or
dialog registration. When the window is displayed again, all the
data is entered automatically when you scan your fingerprint on the
reader. Registered Web pages can also be accessed directly from the
Biomenu.
Biomenu
Biomenu provides access to the utility’s features and settings. It is
available in several variants or skins. To view or select other
Biomenu skins, open the Control Center and select Settings, User
Settings.
Swipe your finger to open Biomenu. If fingerprint verification is
configured to invoke another action (e.g., display a registered page),
press and hold the
Shift
key while swiping your finger.
The Biomenu contains the following menu options:
❖
Lock computer—Locks your computer. Use the reader to
unlock the computer again.
❖
Registered Sites—Displays a list of your Web pages registered
by Password Bank. To display and fill in a registered page in
your default Web browser, click it in the list.
❖
Register—Registers a new window (dialog or Web page).
❖
Lock/unlock My Safe—Opens or closes My Safe folder.
❖
Control Center—Displays Control Center.
❖
Help—Displays this help file.
