   Troubleshooting! If you make a mistake and the new code will not work, simply start over with step 1. Security Sleep Mode: For security. the safe will time out and sleep for 4 minutes if 6 incorrect entries are made .

Biometric Scanner: Overview + Tips!

• Biometrics are methods of authenticating the identity of a person based on physical or behavioral characteristics. Biometric fingerprint authentication refers to technology that measures and analyzes human physical characteristics for identification and authentication purposes.
• Everyone has their own unique fingerprints, and what makes them unique is the pattern of ridges, valleys, and minutiae points that comprise an individual print Vaultek'” and their leading engineering group has developed proprietary technology to read and match fingerprints with unmatched speed and accuracy. That means that only authorized users have access to your valuables. The safe is capable of storing fingerprint data for up to 20 unique authorized users. A user consists of S scans of the same finger during registration. Once a user’s fingerprint data is stored in the safe and encrypted, it cannot be copied or stolen.

Helpful Programming Tips!

• Place the core of the fingerprint flat (Figures E + F + G) over the center of the scanner (this allows the scanner to read where most of the fingerprint detail is located) see (Figure E).
• Adjust your finger slightly between scans for increased accuracy (see Figure F). Excessive moisture, lotions, or dirt will affect your fingerprint and may cause inaccurate sensor reading.
• Troubleshooting! If you are having difficulty with your print, program the same finger 4 or 5 times. You have 20 slots available for programming and you can also try your thumb as it has more surface area to read.

Biometric Scanner

Programming Admin Prints 1 and 2

The 1st and 2nd fingerprints will be recognized as administrative fingerprints and will be used to authorize additional users. To program additional users refer to the next page.
Tip! The first two enrolled fingerprints are admin prints. and are required to authorize enrolling additional users (3·20).
Tip! Each fingerprint requires S registration scans to be enrolled into the safe.

1. Open the safe. Program the 1st fingerprint by pressing and holding the ‘2’ key then the “PROGRAM” button together (3 seconds) (Figure H and H.1) until the first LED on the status bar located above the finger· print sensor blinks RED.
2. Place your finger on the fingerprint scanner for the 1st of five scans. When the safe beeps and the first status bar LED lights up GREEN remove your finger.
3. Place finger again over the scanner until the safe beeps and the second status LED lights up GREEN and lift. You will repeat this process until all status bar LEDs (1·5) are solid GREEN.
4. Close lid and test to see if the safe will open using your fingerprint.
   Tip! Repeat steps 1 through 4 to add the 2nd administrative fingerprint. To program prints (3·20) refer to page 09.
   Troubleshooting! If the entire status bar is blinking RED then refer to programming fingerprints 3·20 on next page.
   Troubleshooting! If you experience issues refer to the helpful programming tips listed on page 07 or view our tutorials online at vaulteksafe.com/support/vt-series/.

Programming Additional Prints 3 to 20
After the first two Admin fingerprints have been locked in, you can add additional users or fingerprints, up to 20 unique users in total. This is very helpful in the event the fingerprint scanner is having a hard time reading your initial fingerprints. or if you wish to grant other users authorized access to your safe. Any additional users programmed require authorization from one of the two Admin fingerprints.

1. Open the safe. Program additional fingerprints by pressing and holding the ‘2’ key and “PROGRAM” button together (3 seconds) (Figure H.l on page 08). The entire status bar will blink RED prompting you to scan one of the administrative fingerprints.
2. Place one of the first two programmed administrative fingerprints on the scanner and remove when the safe beeps and the entire status bar blinks GREEN. When the first LED on the status bar starts blinking RED you can enroll a NEW fingerprint.
3. Using the helpful programming tips provided on page 07 place the NEW finger on the scanner. When the safe beeps and the first LED in the status bar lights up GREEN remove your finger.
4. Place finger again over the scanner at a slightly different angle until the safe beeps and the second status LED lights up GREEN and lift. You will repeat this process until all status bar LEDs (1-5) are solid GREEN.
   Tip! Repeat steps 1 through 4 to add additional fingerprints.
   Troubleshooting! If you are having difficulty with your print, program the same fingerprint 4 or S times. You have 20 slots available for programming and you can also try your thumb as it has more surface area to read.

Deleting Fingerprints
Individual fingerprints can not be deleted from the keypad on the safe. Following this procedure will erase all of the fingerprints including both administrative fingerprints. If you wish to delete individual fingerprints. refer to the Vaultek Wi-Fi app. This procedure will not affect the keypad master code.

1. Press and hold the ‘3’ key then the “PROGRAM” button together until all the status bar LEDs light up RED and let go.
2. Enter your master code on the keypad. If the code is correct, all the status bar LEDs will blink GREEN and safe will beep indicating deletion of all the fingerprints.

Low Success Rate
If you are having difficulty with your print. program the same fingerprint 4 or 5 times. You have 20 slots available for programming and you can al.so try your thumb as it has more surface area to read.

1. Let’s delete the fingerprints and start over. Refer to the deleting fingerprints section above.
2. Now let’s try reprogramming your fingerprint using the helpful tips on page 07.
3. Open the safe. Program the 1st fingerprint by pressing and holding the ‘2’ key and “PROGRAM” button together (3 seconds) (Figure H.1 on page 08). The first LED on the status bar located above the fingerprint scanner will blink RED.
4. Place your finger on the fingerprint scanner for the 1st of five scans until the safe beeps and the second status LED lights up GREEN and lift.
5. Rotate your finger position and place your finger on the scanner again. You will repeat this process until all scans (1-5) are programmed.
6. Close the safe and test to see if the safe will opens using your fingerprint.

Nano Key

Your Vaultek”‘ safe supports quick access with the included Nano Key. Take caution when using this feature and be responsible. Security can be compromised in the event it is lost or stolen. Only pair Nano Key after thoroughly understanding the inherent risks.
