Preferences

This section allows users to set the Verification Method, Authentication Session time and Language.

Figure 27. System Settings menu - Preferences

 Authentication Method:

1. Fingerprint: Only use fingerprint to verify user identity.

2. Password: Only use password to verify user identity.

3. Both: Both Fingerprint and Password will be required to verify user identity. After successful

fingerprint verification, you will need to also input the correct password associated with that

fingerprint.

4. Either: With this setting, users will be prompted for Fingerprint verification first, then if fingerprint

authentication fails, password verification will be used instead.

 Authentication Session Timer:

This setting lets you adjust the duration of time each authentication stays valid for. After a successful

authentication, you will be able to continue using all functions and access files without any further

verification until the timer runs out.

 Language:

This setting lets you change the language of JetFlash® 220 software user interface. *Note: this

feature is only available when using Windows® 2000/XP. When using Windows Vista/7, the language will

automatically be set to your operating system’s default language.

Figure 28. Preferences Window

Stop Authentication Session

This setting is related to the Authentication Validity Timer mentioned above. When accessing the

JetFlash® 220’s functions or protected files, users will be required to verify their identity via fingerprint or

password authentication. The authentication will expire when the Authentication Validity Timer expires

(unless the timer is set to 0). However, Stop Authentication Session will force the current authentication

session to end (log out), meaning you must re-authenticate again before you will be able to access

protected files or any of the JetFlash 220’s menu functions.

Backup User Profile

All of the user information stored on the JetFlash® 220 including, your User Information, Passwords and

Fingerprint information can be backed up to the computer you are using in the form of a *.bak file. It is

important to create a Backup User Profile because if the JetFlash® 220 software ever needs to be

re-installed, you will not be able to open any protected files on the computer without first restoring the

user profile file.

1. To use the Backup User Profile, right click on the “Fingerprint Application Suite” icon on the

Windows System Tray and select “System Settings.” In the drop down menu select the “Backup

User Profile” option.
