本标准涉及声称符合手指模式数据的实现的一致性测试 ANSI INCITS 377-2004中定义的交换格式规范。更具体地说，它只涉及测试 ANSI INCITS 423.1-2008中定义的生物特征数据交换记录（BDIR）要求。INCITS 377-2004中规定的CBEFF要求的一致性测试不在本标准的范围内。 此外，本标准不涉及生物识别产品或其他类型产品的其他特性测试 生物识别产品的测试（即验收、性能、稳健性和安全性）。任何考虑 使用本部分所定义的试验方法，应仔细考虑其适用性的制约因素。ANSI INCITS 423.1-2008定义了两种类型（A和B）和三个级别（1、2和3）的一致性测试。 然而，只有A类、1级和2级在本标准的范围内。

This standard is concerned with conformance testing of implementations claiming conformance to the Finger Pattern Data Interchange Format specification defined in ANSI INCITS 377-2004. More specifically, it is concerned with testing only of the Biometric Data Interchange Records (BDIR) requirements as defined in ANSI INCITS 423.1-2008.Conformance testing of the CBEFF requirements as set forth in INCITS 377-2004 is not within the scope of this standard. Furthermore, this standard is not concerned with testing of other characteristics of biometric products or other types of testing of biometric products (i.e., acceptance, performance, robustness, security). Any organization contemplating the use of test methods defined in this part, should carefully consider the constraints on their applicability.Two types (A and B) and three levels (1, 2, and 3) of conformance testing have been defined in ANSI INCITS 423.1-2008. However, only Type A, and Levels 1 and 2 are within the scope of this standard.
