Verifying a Fingerprint

• With the release of version 14.0 of the OrthoTrac software, the fingerprint scanner is no longer supported.

TIP:Use the Verify function if a patient or staff member has forgotten which finger he originally scanned.

1. On the Fingerprint Maintenance window, click Verify. The Verify Fingerprint window is displayed.

2. Ask the patient or staff member to place his finger firmly on the scanner. The fingerprint is scanned automatically.

If the fingerprint matches the current patient or staff member, the Verify Fingerprint message is displayed, stating that the fingerprint matches the fingerprint on file.

Click OK twice.
