and
This method compares the entered verification of a person with all the
verification template previously stored to that Personnel ID in the Device.
Procedure to set for Combined Verification Mode:
Combined verification requires personnel to register all the different verification method.
Otherwise, employees will not be able to successfully verify the combined verification process.
For instance, when an employee has registered only the data, but the Device verification mode
is set as “Face + Password”, the employee will not be able to complete the verification process
successfully.
This is because the Device compares the scanned face template of the person with registered
verification template (both the Face template and the Password) previously stored to that
Personnel ID in the Device.
But as the employee has registered only the Face template but not the Password, the
verification will not get completed and the Device displays “Verification Failed”.
