Hi,

any information updates on the CF-31 Mk5 yet, anyone?

Service manual with schematics or at least the net type fingerprint sensor info and installation details??

Thanks,

Hi All, My understanding from Panasonic is that the MK5 fingerprint reader is a different cable and connects in a different location and not interchangeable with the MK1-4. I know Panasonic switched biometric modules from the Authentec module in the MK1-4 to the EVE FA module in the MK5. I checked ...

Hi Rob, thanks for that. Do you have any info on how the Mk5 version connects in to the machine? Is it similar but needing the big multi-way cable replacing as well, or does it connect elsewhere..

Any clues?

It appears to have been partly submersed in water for a considerable time - there is an obvious 'water mark' part way up the screen. I've stripped it to see what state the electronics are in, the main board has bits cor...

I've now got one, thanks all.
