Some user tips:
The Shepherd 210 uses exciting technology and design that
allows the opening of a locked door simply by pressing a finger on the lock.
Generally, the center of the vortex of the fingerprint
pattern is the key data point; ideally it is placed in the center of the small
glass window in a consistent way. Your finger should be flat, motionless and
held with firm pressure in the same way each time. A very firm pressure when
placing the finger gives the best image, but the finger must not move during
scanning.
Moist fingers give better images than dry ones. If on cold,
dry days you have difficulty then try moistening your finger with your breath
or a little moisture.
Very dirty fingers are obviously not recommended, not only
for obscuring the fingerprint but also for the risk of scratching the window.
The Shepherd 210 allows setting of security thresholds to
determine how precisely you must place your finger to open the lock.
Structure:
Outside:
The fingerprint window side
Inside: Side
with the programming buttons
When you slide the
dust cover up on the Outside you
will uncover the Power On
button.
Both Inside and
Outside parts
of the lock have Lock buttons
that extend the deadbolt, although the Outside one
(oval shape) is unmarked. The Inside part
also has an Unlock button
to retract the deadbolt. There are also three programming buttons (STORE,
DELETE, and SELECT) on Inside of
lock.
Registering
or Programming of Fingerprints:
This
is the process of acquiring the image of fingerprints of authorized persons and
storing them into the lock’s memory (i.e enrolling in bio-metrics language). Two images of each finger are scanned in the process, with the same
finger being placed two separate times on the window.
