Adding a fingerprint to a biometric padlock, such as the model shown in the referenced video clip, involves a specific process of scanning your finger multiple times to ensure accurate recognition. This is typically done during the initial setup to register authorized users.
Steps to Add Your Primary Fingerprint
Based on the instructions highlighted in the provided reference for the 4901 Biometric Padlock, here is the general procedure for adding your primary fingerprint:
- Initiate the Process: Ensure the padlock is ready for fingerprint enrollment. This might involve a specific button press or sequence, though the provided clip focuses only on the scanning action itself.
- First Scan:
- Place your primary finger directly onto the fingerprint sensor.
- Hold your finger firmly in place.
- Wait for Confirmation: Continue holding your finger on the sensor until the padlock's light indicator turns green.
- Lift Finger: Once the green light appears, lift your finger completely off the sensor.
- Repeat Scans: The padlock will require you to place your finger on the sensor multiple times (as indicated by phrases like "MorePlace" and "Place...repeat"). For each subsequent scan:
- Place your finger back onto the sensor.
- Lift it again once prompted or indicated by the light sequence (though the clip only explicitly mentions the green light for the first confirmation, repeating placement is standard for enrollment).
- Completion: Continue repeating the placement and lifting process as instructed by the padlock's lights or sounds until the enrollment is complete. This allows the padlock to capture different parts and angles of your fingerprint.
Successfully completing these steps registers your fingerprint with the padlock, allowing you to unlock it simply by placing your registered finger on the sensor in the future.
Key Actions:
- Place the finger on the sensor.
- Hold briefly until the green light appears (at least initially).
- Lift the finger.
- Repeat placement multiple times.
This method ensures the padlock has a comprehensive scan of your registered finger for reliable unlocking.
