Initial Setup
› On a new unit, all fingerprint indexes are unused.
› When a new unit is powered up, it will immediately go into the Initial Setup
menu. The menu consists of a number of options that can be selected or
turned on / off, and requires numeric alues to be entered using the keypad.
The initial setup of each db Nexus unit is ery simple and should only take a couple
of minutes.
When the unit is powered-up, you should see the following on the Head Unit's LCD:
LCD CONTRAST
(0- ):[0] #=DONE
› Using the keypad on the Head Unit enter a alue 0 thru to set your
preferred contrast for the LCD display. You will see the contrast change as
each alue is selected. If the chosen contrast is not correct, try a different
alue until you ha e the desired contrast.
› Once you ha e the desired contrast, press the # key.
The next screen on the Head Unit LCD will be:
<Blank Line>
ENTER PASSWORD
› Enter a 16-digit numeric password. This is used for the code hopping
encryption that operates between the Head Unit and Control Unit and also
between the Control Unit and PC software.
Note: This same password must also be entered into the Management
Software, so please make a record of the password before entering it.
› Following the 16th digit being entered, the Head Unit will display the entered
password on the top line of the LCD and display [#]=DONE on the bottom
line. The cursor will mo e to the # character to allow you to re iew the
password. If you are certain that the password has been entered correctly
press the # key. If you want to change the password, use the * key as a
back-space to delete the password entered.
Note: This alue cannot be re-entered. This is a one-time only process.
The next stage is to optionally enroll 2 managers onto the unit for testing purposes.
The following messages will be displayed on the Head Unit LCD:
ENROLL MANAGERS?
YES=1 NO=0
It is highly recommended that you enroll the 2 managers at the Head Unit for testing
purposes. If you choose not to enroll managers ia the Head Unit at this point, the
unit will need to be networked and users enrolled onto the unit ia the DAS
Management Software.

Entering the Menu after Initial Setup
Other than at initial setup, the menus can be accessed by any enrolled manager in
the following way:
› Press and release the # key.

The db Nexus and db Tracker units ha e a comprehensi e series of on-board menus.
The entire range of menu options that are a ailable on the db Sentry unit are also
a ailable on the db Nexus and db Tracker units.
It is recommended that most configuration and user enrollment for the db Nexus is
done ia the DAS Management Software and not using the menus. The one
exception to this is setting the IP address of the db Nexus unit. To set the IP address
of the db Nexus unit, follow the steps in Setting the IP Address Via the Menus.
Menu Overview
Diagrams of the menus can be found in Appendix 1.
The menus are ery intuiti e and easy to follow. If a menu item is asking for
a alue to be entered, it will show you the range of acceptable alues.
If a decision need to be made in the menus, 1=Yes and 0=No is the rule to
follow. Again, this will be displayed on the unit's LCD.
If you see an item that is enclosed in [] (square parentheses), this indicates
the currently selected setting. To retain the current setting, you can press the
# key. For example if the YES option is selected the display would show the
square brackets as such [YES=1].
If you e er need to go back to a pre ious menu item or back-space or exit a
menu, the * key can be used.
Menu Layout
The menus are broken down into 4 top le el menu categories:
› User Menu - Add, Edit and Delete Users.
› Operations Menu - Unit settings. Turn any feature on or off ia this menu.
