To calibrate the fingerprint scanner, ensure the machine is turned on and navigate to the calibration menu through the settings. Follow the on-screen instructions to adjust the sensitivity and alignment. Make sure the scanner surface is clean before starting the calibration process.
First, clean the scanner surface with a soft, lint-free cloth. Ensure that the user's finger is clean and dry. If the problem persists, try re-enrolling the fingerprint by deleting the existing profile and adding a new one. Check for any firmware updates that might address recognition issues.
To update the firmware, download the latest firmware version from the official Dürkopp Adler website. Transfer the firmware file to a USB drive and insert it into the machine's USB port. Navigate to the update firmware option in the machine's menu, and follow the prompts to complete the update.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the fingerprint scanner surface weekly with a non-abrasive cloth. Check for software updates monthly and ensure that the scanner is calibrated every six months. Keep the machine in a dust-free environment to prevent sensor interference.
Yes, the sewing machine can be used without the fingerprint scanner functionality. Simply disable the fingerprint authentication in the security settings. This will allow users to operate the machine without requiring fingerprint verification.
Ensure that the fingerprint was scanned correctly and that the user profile is active. If the machine does not start, try restarting it and re-scanning the fingerprint. Check the user permissions in the settings to confirm that the scanned fingerprint has the necessary access rights.
To enroll a new fingerprint, access the user management menu and select 'Add New User.' Follow the instructions to place the finger on the scanner multiple times for full enrollment. Save the profile once the process is complete.
Frequent misreads can be caused by dirty scanner surfaces, worn fingerprint ridges, or incorrect scanner settings. Clean the scanner, ensure hands are clean and dry, and recalibrate the scanner. Also, check for any system updates that might improve scanner accuracy.
Check the connection cables for any damage or loose connections. Restart both the fingerprint scanner and the sewing machine. Refer to the manual to ensure all settings are correctly configured. If issues persist, contacting technical support may be necessary.
The Dürkopp Adler 550-867 requires a power supply of 220V-240V AC, 50/60 Hz. Ensure that the power outlet used matches these specifications to avoid any electrical issues. Use a surge protector to safeguard the machine against power fluctuations.
