Give each device an individual identity

We recommend that you to create an individual account ID for each BioPad device that you operate. This will allow you to track which device users are signing in or out from when the need arises. If a single generic BioPad account is used then all transactions will appear under the one user account and it will not be possible to determine which device a transaction was performed on.
