The message varies depending on the configuration of yourauthentication software.7. Insert your card into the card reader slot on the user station. The LEDof the user station turns green.Note: The Paragon II integrated smart card reader may not recognizethe insertion of a smart card when there is conflict with an externalcard reader, including keyboards that consist of a built‐in smart cardreader. When there is conflict with an external reader, the LED on theuser station (which normally turns from blue to green when a card isinserted) will not react to the insertion of the card.8. The card reader reads the data of the card and transmits the data tothe server. Follow the serverʹs onscreen instructions, if any, tocomplete the login authentication process.For more information on completing the authentication process, seethe user documentation provided with your systemʹs authenticationsoftware or contact your system administrator.IMPORTANT: Whenever the card reader is reading andtransmitting the data (indicated by the green blinking LED), doNOT do anything that interrupts the transmission, such as theremoval of the card or CIM, turning off the Paragon switch orserver, and so on. Doing this may cause abnormal function andrequire you to restart all of the devices in order to return to normaloperation.The Paragon system does not allow you to switch to any serverduring the transmission of the cardʹs data. When attempting to do so,the system displays the message below on the OSUI.9. Once you pass the authentication process, you are allowed to viewand manage the server.
