How to obtain this new product version
This software is available for download from the Cross Match Technologies web site
(http://www.crossmatch.com/software-downloads.php). Integrators requiring a master CD version
should contact your sales representative.
Installation and upgrade

To use this software, please uninstall any previous version of the USB SDK from your PC. It is also
important to uninstall previous versions of the device drivers (USB4xx.sys and USB4xx.inf) from
the PC and from the Windows Device Manager.
NOTE: This new SDK version contains a certified device driver (cmt_usb.sys) that is not
compatible with the dlls from older versions of USB SDK.
The integrator setup.exe application is a GUI based software package installer that will install the
minimum help, dlls, firmware and driver files required to access the scanner. The setup will also
allow the optional installation of source code for the sample applications.
There is a USBSDK merge modules supplied with this SDK to allow for easy deployment of any
application. This merge module can be included with any application installer to install the required
Cross Match Technologies redistributable files.
See the Installation Guide section of the help file for more detailed information about deploying
Cross Match Technologies software with an application.

• Supports Microsoft 32-bit Vista.
• Split of the Verifier's USB SDK, usb4xx.dll, from the I Scan 2's I Scan Essentials SDK,

bit Vista with minor plug-and-play issues.
• Update the MFC sample applications so that they can be built in both Visual Studio 6.0 and
2005.
Note changes in redistributable dependencies:
Versions 4.5.0 and older requires the MSVCRT.dll, MSVCIRT.dll and MFC42.dll
redistributables from Microsoft
Versions 4.5.1 and newer requires the MSVCR80.dll, MSVCP80.dll and MFC80.dll
redistributables from Microsoft.

USB_RegisterCallbacks must be the first function call made into the USB SDK when this
component needs to be reused.
• The AC_Enable and XM_Enable application that install licenses on a scanner can now also
be used to verify if a license has been properly installed.
• Limited support of I Scan 2 iris scanners. The I Scan Essentials BioBase API must be used
for full support of the iris scanners.
• Update to cyusb.sys version 1.08.0120.0 device driver to better support Microsoft Vista.

Version 4.4.0 - released June 2007:
• Supports Microsoft Windows 2000 and XP Professional 32-bit.
• Supports the Verifier V310 LC PIV certified scanner with a generous dual finger platen and
hardware finger detection circuitry.
• Add support for two TWAIN drivers.
The original driver, CmtUsbTw.ds, detects a finger or dirt on platen and prompts the user to
fix the problem before continuing.
The new driver, CmtUsbTwNoDet.ds, will NOT detect a finger or dirt on the platen.
• Update USB_SetDetectFirstFinger.
• Allow calls to USB_SetDetectFirstFinger(TRUE) before each call to USB_Initialize.
• Change logic to reset the AutoCapture timeout after a successful image capture.
Version 4.3.0 - released October 2006:

• Support for the new Verifier 310 scanner with a generous dual finger platen and hardware
finger detection circuitry.
• Updated the TWAIN driver to prevent TWAIN based applications running on faster PCs
from unloading the TWAIN driver before the image transfer has completed.
• Added new function to allow re-entry into Usb4xx.dll without errors.
• Added new function USB_Dispose to allow .NET applications to use and then dispose the
SDK as needed. This allows instances of the scanners to be used in both biometric login
applications and then allow another application to instantiate the scanner.
• Supports the Verifier 300 LC 2.0 and 310 via the usb4xx.sys/cyusb.sys drivers.
Version 4.1.0 - released January 2006:

• Fix bug that could cause floating point error in some applications.
Some non Microsoft C++ compilers had a floating point error when calling USB_Initialize
that caused a lose of communication to the scanner.
• Add image enhancement feature for V300LC 2.0 fingerprint scanner.
See USB_SetSlopesCompensation for how to utilizing an adaptive gain curve and gamma
correction to normalize images that are too light or dark.
