Admissions area

Listed below are the general guidelines for setting up the candidate admissions area.

  1. Having the admissions area and/or exam delivery room on different floors or in different buildings is NOT desirable. They should be on the same floor, in the same building, and in the same general area. This ensures higher test security.

  1. The admissions equipment should be located as close to the exam delivery room as possible , since candidates MUST have their palm vein captured each time they ENTER and EXIT the exam delivery room; including unscheduled and scheduled breaks.

  1. All admissions devices including the signature pad, palm vein device, admissions camera, and scanner should be connected to the administration workstation or a USB hub connected to the administration workstation.

  1. The USB hub should connect to the workstation in which the test administrator will use Admissions Manager to admit candidates.

  1. The video server (DVR) and video monitor must be installed where the test administrator will be seated for CONSTANT candidate monitoring. DO NOT install the DVR and monitor in an area where the test administrator does not spend the majority of his or her time.

  1. Do NOT turn off the Video Server at any time. It must always remain powered ON. We recommend you attach a label to the DVR box instructing others to always leave it on. See the Labels topic for examples you can print and attach.

  1. Do not turn off the Monitor for the Video Server at any time. It must always remain powered ON. We recommend you attach a label to the video monitor near the power switch instructing others to always leave it on. See the Labels topic for examples you can print and attach.
