choose [Fingerprint OR Password]. You can improve the security of this choice by
making your Windows password more complex (add numbers, letters, symbols,
upper/lowercase) and also making the Puppy password (see Step 4) a 'complex'
password.
In any case, it's always a good idea to keep a copy of your Windows password in a
safe, secure place, just in case something happens to your Puppy or your PC.
You can always add or change the authentication methods later.
4. The [Register Password] dialog box will appear if you chose [Password] for your
authentication method in the previous step. Enter your password into both [Password]
and [Confirm Password] boxes and click [OK]. You must enter less than 127 characters.
If you chose [Password] only, user creation is complete.
NOTE: This Puppy password is NOT your Windows password, and does not need
to be the same. Think of this Puppy password more like a PIN code for your Puppy
unit.
5. The [Practice Finger Placement] dialog box will appear if you chose [Fingerprint] for
your authentication method in step 3. You can practice how to place your finger on the
sensor in this dialog box. Follow the instructions in the message box near the bottom.
Once you are finished practicing, click [Next].
If fingerprint verification succeeds, the Puppy image in the center of the dialog box will
turn green. If fingerprint verification fails, the Puppy image in the center of the dialog
box will turn red.
Note
•
Verification performance will vary depending on how you place your finger on the sensor. When
using the Puppy unit for the first time, please practice until you can achieve success consistently.
For more information and advice, refer to Section 2 of this manual.
•
Another dialog box will be displayed showing good and bad finger placement samples. Place your
finger following the "good" example.
If you continue to fail fingerprint verification, try the following:
