Fingerprint Scanning

Fingerprints biometric scanning is one of many ways Loan Performer uses to identify individuals and verify their identity. You can use Loan Performer fingerprint verification for the following:

You need to install a biometric device for this purpose and it is recommended that you use the Hamster III or Hamster IV fingerprint devices for this purpose.

Please note that for Windows Vista and Windows 7 you have to run LPF as an administrator so that you don't run into any security conflicts after the installation of this device.

You also need a special Loan Performer license so that you can activate the biometric features in the software.

Before you can fully use the fingerprint scanning functionality you will need to do the following:

If you want to change the default settings for the options above during the fingerprints capture, then you must tick the checkbox User can Chenge ... to the right of the relevant option, e.g., "Default Sensitivity".

The user can set own settings for the Sensitivity, Brightness, Contrast and Quality by running some tests using the option “Configure”.

After clicking on “Configure”, place your thumb on top of the biometric fingerprint scanner and click on “Preview”. The image will be displayed and you can edit the brightness, contrast and gain to the most optimal one for your setting

To activate the module, tick the checkbox on “Activate Fingerprint Scanning”. Once the fingerprints are activated, they can be used for logging into Loan Performer (for users of the system) or for transactions (by clients for withdrawal of from Savings Accounts, Disbursed Loans, Time Deposits withdrawal, etc)
