Caution: Never unplug the
BioStik when the Red LED Status Light is blinking.
If that is done, the file that was trying to
be accessed will end up corrupted and could
permanently corrupt the BioStik unit.
Caution:
Never tamper with the BioStik casing
because the
flash drive can self destruct.
Caution:
Do Not store BioStik in hot or cold
areas, or in dusty or dirty areas. These
environments can shorten the life of the unit.
Caution:
Do Not use detergents,
chemicals, or apply fluids to clean the BioStik,
especially the sensor.

| How to differentiate
your unit (Basic/Admin)? |
|
All
BioStik
units that have V0 included in their serial number
is the Basic unit. All
BioStik
units that contain V1 in their serial number have
the admin feature, except if your serial number is
highlighted green; such as

In addition, the new 1 GB and 2 GB Basic units have a blue LED light to
distinguish Basic from Admin.

How to delete all
fingerprints on your BioStik unit? |
|
To delete all fingerprints on a device, one of the
last 5/6 fingerprints must be present. One of the
old fingerprints registered gives you access to the
enroll mode, where you can store new fingerprints or
completely erase old fingerprints on the
BioStik.
Just switch the enrollment switch to enroll and plug
the BioStik
into the USB port. You will then see the red light
flashing. Scan you fingerprint and the green will
flash quickly accepting your print and the orange
light will light up. At that point you are in the
enrollment mode. Disconnect the
BioStik
from USB port to erase all of the fingerprint
templates. You have now completely erased all
fingerprint templates on the device. Please follow
the directions to rescan fingerprints. We highly
recommend leaving a fingerprint on the device at all
times.
Reconnect the
BioStik
and the orange light will be on; scan two
fingerprints from each hand, and switch back from
enrollment mode to normal. At this point, you have
scanned your new fingerprint templates on the
device. |
| Sharing your
Grey BioStik
unit? |
|
If the
BioStik
was locked with your fingerprint; only your
fingerprint can unlock the
BioStik.
If you shared the device with someone else and they
enrolled more fingerprints of themselves or others,
then their fingerprint might be on the device,
(maybe not yours) and you must first get their
fingerprint to open to the enrolment mode. There are
5 templates only; as you add fingerprints after the
first 5, then one is deleted. Those who have their
fingerprint template registered on the
BioStik
have total access to the drive, its contents and
the enrolment mode. |
| Sharing your Black
BioStik
unit with "Admin Features"? |
|
The Black casing
BioStik
with Admin rights locks the first two fingerprints
permanently. If you are a company, make sure its
given to a high ranking employee, insure that person
will stay with the company as long as possible. Once
that is done, if you are sharing the
BioStik
with others, as a permanent administrator, you
always have access. The
Black BioStiks
with "Admin feature" have 6 fingerprint
templates total; 2 permanent and 4 fingerprint
templates that can be replaced and deleted. |
