 FINGERXPRINT SENSOR

• FINGERPRINT SCANNERS ARE SECURITY

SYSTEMS OF BIOMETRICS. THEY ARE USED TO
UNLOCK DOORS AND IN OTHER SECURITY
APPLICATIONS. DURING THE
2010S FINGERPRINT SCANNERS BECAME
COMMONPLACE ON MOBILE PHONES. PEOPLE
HAVE A PATTERN OF RIDGES ON THEIR FINGERS. ...
EVERY FINGERPRINT IS DIFFERENT FROM ANY
OTHER IN THE WORLD.

Getting Started
Welcome to the 1048 user guide! In order to get started, make
sure you have the following hardware on hand:
 1048 Phidget TemperatureSensor 4-Input
 USB Cable and computer
 Thermocouple
Next, you will need to connect the pieces:

1. Connect the thermocouple to one of the inputs on the

Phidget TemperatureSensor. The datasheet or product
page for the thermocouple should tell you which wire
is positive and which is negative.
2. Connect the Phidget to your computer using the USB
cable.

Using the 1048

Phidget Control Panel
In order to demonstrate the functionality of the 1048, the
Phidget Control Panel running on a Windows machine will be
used.
Windows
To open the Phidget Control Panel on windows find the
icon In the taskbar. If it’s not there, open up the start menu and
search for Phidget Control Panel.

First Look
After plugging the1048 into your computer and opening
the phidget control panel, you will see something like
this.
  Serial number: Allows you to differentiate between similar
Phidgets.

 Channel: Allows you to differentiate between similar objects

on a Phidget.

 Version number: Corresponds to the firmware version your

Phidget is running. If your Phidget is listed in red, your
firmware is out of date. Update the firmware by double-
clicking the entry.
