develop issue IB scanner Powering on the Telpo S5 Device

Question

I am trying to make our MBI application work on Telpo S5 Device.

 

Currently I have a problem with the fingerprint scanner.

 

As I understood before initializing the scanner I should call FingerPrint.fingerPrintPower(1) which I did. But unfortunately if I run the initialization right away it doesn’t work properly. I am getting an exception when I call final IBScan.getDeviceDescription(0).

 

What I noticed in the demo application (IBSimpleScan) is that there is 1 second delay after calling fingerPrintPower(1).

 

I tried and actually it is better to use 2 seconds delay and the initialization started working.

 

Is there any better way how to check if the fingerPrintPower is finished? Some callback or at least getter for the scanner state?

 

I tried to find it in your documentation (Telpo S5 SDK for Android-V1.0_release.docx) but it is not really detailed. Is there any other document?

There is no method to detect the finish state of the fingerprint power-on. So you need perform the operation after 1 to 2 seconds of power-on now
