1. Introduction
The Voxio biometrics fingerprint reader is a robust, stylish reader, equipped with the proven Sagem optical sensor for fingerprint reading.
The fingerprint reader is designed for situations where an elevated level of security is required. This reader can provide access, when an employee provides a personal card and a finger. (authentication)
1.1 Features
All-in-one solution
Easy to use
No additional software
Fingerprint template on the card
Two finger templates possible on one card
Enrollment mode through enroll card possible
1.2 Versions
The fingerprint reader is available in two versions:
Enrollment station: desktop model with stainless steel stand
Wall reader
2. Support and license
Below is an overview of support for both the hardware and the software, including the necessary license:
Version | License |
---|---|
| iProtect basic license |
| Sufficient reader licenses |
Protocol | PHG Crypt |
2.1 Specifications of initial version.
2 fingerprints are stored on the card.
1 of the 2 stored fingers must be presented.
1 card per reader(s) can be used to enter the enroll mode (Based on the UID of the card).
The reader must be initialized for use with TKH cards.
Depending on configuration, Desfire 3DES or AES256 (ev1) can be used.
Connecting the PHG reader to a Polyx™ or Pluto/Orion, the Controller must be configured for use with the
card coding like 4 sitecode and 4 cardnumber or 6 sitecode and 6 cardnumber.
2.2 Supported cards
TKH coded DESFire cards
TKH coded Mifare classic cards
Mifare classic cards (UID)
The cards must be prepared in order to be able to store fingerprints.
The card reader must be provided with key material to be able to read the desired cards.
Other cards or custom keys on request.
3. Installation
There are 2 reader types, so there are 2 ways to connect the reader. The table model can be connected directly to the Workstation with a straight serial cable.
The wall mounted reader can be connected to a Reader Orbit/ bus Orion (clock data protocol) or a Polyx™/ Pluto with stacked Orion (RS485 communication).

5. Using the reader
5.1 Using the reader in Enrollment mode
The reader is programmed to store 2 fingerprints on the card. Each finger has to be presented 3 times to get a high accuracy.
Present the enroll card, the fingerprint sensor will flash red. The LED will blink Red.
Start enrolling:
present the first finger 3 times
present the second finger 3 times
5.2 Using the reader in normal mode
When the reader is in normal read mode, present your Enrolled card to the fingerprint reader. The LED will blink blue. The finger sensor lights-up RED and the LED starts flashing yellow. Present one of the two Enrolled fingers.
When there is a match the status LED will blink Green, and one beep is given. When there’s no match, the status LED will blink Red and gives two beeps. Now you get a second chance to present your finger. When the second chance also fails you have to re-present your card.
