OVERVIEW
Tactilis Badge Carrier provides communication interfaces for applications to connect to and use the
Tactilis Biometric Card. The Carrier has a slot for inserting and carrying the Tactilis Card. Applications
can connect to the Carrier using USB, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) or Wi-Fi

.




                                 Figure 1: Tactilis Badge Carrier and Card

In addition, the Carrier also supports communication services to allow you to tap and get access to
facilities (using Near Field Communication) and provide your location information (using GPS).

TACTILIS BADGE CARRIER
       On/Off Button:          This is used to turn the Carrier on or power it off. (The exact
                               behaviour depends on whether the card and/or USB is
                               connected).

       LED (Power):            Provides battery status including charging, charged and
                               low/empty.

       LED (Communication): Indicates the wireless connection status – connected or not
                             connected.

       USB Port:               USB port is dual function a) to charge the carrier and b) for
                               communication over the USB interface.

       Card Slot:              The Tactilis Card needs to be inserted in this slot to enable the
                               Carrier functions.

       Lanyard Slot:           Lanyards can be passed through this slot to carry the unit.

       Rear Cover:             Displays Tactilis and certifications logos.


GETTING STARTED
Turning Carrier On
The Carrier is turned on when connected to a USB power source. If not USB-connected, then insert the
Tactilis Card and briefly press the On/Off Button to power on the carrier.

Powering Off
Remove the Tactilis Card and long-press the On/Off Button, when not connected to USB. (The Carrier is
active and powered on when it is connected to USB).

Charging the Battery
Connect the carrier to a PC or battery bank using a micro-USB cable. The Power LED will display the
charging status.

Active and Standby Modes
After a timeout period, the carrier will automatically go to the Standby mode. In this mode the
communication functions are enabled. If the card is removed, the carrier shuts down the communication
functions. Standby modes do not apply when connected to USB power source.

Setting up the Carrier
Your service provider will setup the communication mode for your carrier. The communication options
include:

   Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE): this can be used to detect proximity and to communicate with the
   Carrier

   Wi-Fi: Carriers can be wirelessly connected over Wi-Fi for data exchange.

   USB: Carriers can be physically connected to hosts (PC/Mac) using a USB cable.


Carrier Services
    Location Service:
    The carrier can be configured to store and provide location services to your applications using GPS.

    Access Service:
    The carrier can use wireless (NFC) methods to authenticate you for accessing facilities and systems.


ENABLING WITH TACTILIS CARD
The Carrier works only when the Tactilis Card is inserted and verified.

Inserting the Card
Turn on the Carrier by inserting the card in to the card slot and firmly press it in. If the carrier was
powered off, press the button to turn it on. If the Carrier was in sleep state, the card insertion will wake
the carrier.

Enrollment
This process saves your fingerprint to the card. Enrol request is indicated by blue light on the card. Press
your finger on the fingerprint sensor until the LED status indicates success. Normally this enrolment
process will be performed when the card is issued to you.

Verification
This is the process of authenticating yourself to the system by providing the fingerprint press to compare
with the stored template. If successfully verified the LED will indicate green.

Removing Card
Removing the card from the carrier will turn off the communication functions and power off the carrier
(when not connected to USB).


STATUS INDICATIONS

Buzzer Notifications
The Carrier provides some buzzer-based notifications automatically. The Service Provider applications
can also programmatically play patterns.

Automatic Buzzer Indications
     Enrolment: When the carrier is requesting enrolment, it will generate a buzzer note.

     Verification: When verification is successful, the busser note is played

Programmatic Notifications
Your Service Provider will provide you with information on their use of the buzzer notification.
