ZK Software adds Lumidigm’s Mercury scanner

Monday, September 19, 2011

Lumidigm announced that ZK Software has added Lumidigm’s Mercury multispectral biometric sensor to the LA2000 fingerprint terminal, which previously has been available only with Lumidigm’s Venus sensor.

The Mercury sensor is a lower-cost alternative to the highly successful Lumidigm Venus sensor in the ZK LA2000, a fingerprint biometric terminal that has been providing multispectral imaging capabilities to fingerprint applications worldwide.


The ZK LA2000 terminal supports 50 time zones, five groups and ten unlock combinations to make it a truly stand-alone access control reader. TCP/IP, serial and Wiegand communication are available for connecting the terminal to a network or third-party access control panel.

The terminal provides 1-touch 1-second employee recognition and has the capacity to store 8,000 templates and 200,000 transactions. Multi-language firmware supports English and Spanish by default. Optional French and Portuguese language support is available. Multi-factor authentication options include card/PIN or password. The LA2000’s ABS housing is durable and elegant in appearance. It is available in two versions.

The ZK LA2000 terminal and Lumidigm’s new Mariner fingerprint reader will be showcased at ASIS, Lumidigm booth 2937 in Orlando, Sept. 19-21. [end]
