WTB: CF-30 Fingerprint reader kit

Hi,

does anyone have a fingerprint reader kit suitable for a CF-30 Mk3 available?

Thanks,
Robert.

 

I recall these being available via Heartland for about $175

 

You may want to consider a PC Card Fingerprint Reader.

 

I used to have an APC branded one just like TopCop has linked to. I used it with my 29 and the PCMCIA door closed too... It worked okay, not perfect

 

Thanks guys, but having seen the pics of the proper integrated Toughbook one, I will wait for one of those to turn up.

 

Some where here someone did the mod and the pics were posted with the price and part numbers you need to order them from heartlands

Still did not find it but the CF-19 is about the same

There is a thread of Rob's, with photos, here:
~Toughbook Talk~ Toughbook Discussion • View topic - I love my CF-30 - advise on fingerprint reader

The are some part numbers mentioned in the last post, but they appear to be a document reference rather than the reader kit?

I have found the number 'CF-WFP301' via google, but I have no idea if this is the part number I'd need to get info from Heartland?

 

Heartland will be able to help you find the kit you need.

 

I myself would also like to know the model number so I can buy one for my CF-30 from Heartland as well. I ordered one in the past for someone on this forum and I don't remember who it was (tango maybe) or what the part number was. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

 

You might want to do some research on these devices. I'm on a few of the security forums and the general opinion of the usefullness of their technology is quite low. There probably are some devices that are better than others, but don't put too much faith in them.

 

CF-WFP301R

 

I'll check on that today. I saw this P/N too but I'm pretty sure that Heartland has a different PN lol

 

Is the stock fingerprint reader for the cf-30 mrk 1 the same as for the mark3 your looking for?, cause I may have one for sale.

Of course mine comes with its own CF-30, but then you can always just sell the rest of it to someone else on the board.

Actually, the model is CF-30CASJZBM, and Im gonna list it on the buy/sell forum later today, complete with the pics. Overall its nice, lists only 140 hours, but its missing the battery port door, the power port cover, and has a tiny mark on the screen; and no hard drive or caddy.

I got two of these in my last big purchase, and was gonna keep both, but just cant justify it. The other is now my primary toughbook, and I like it.
