Installation Overview

Step One: TQ100 Terminal Installation

Installing the TQ100 Biometric terminal(s) includes: configuring the terminal
through its built in keypad, mounting the terminal securely, connecting the
terminal to the computer system.

Step Two: Software Installation and Terminal Connection

Installing the software is as simple as inserting the timeQplus Biometric CD in
your computer and answering some questions. The same timeQplus Biometric
CD will be used to install either the Server or Client configuration. The Server
computer will host the database and the Clients will access the Server data
over your Ethernet network. If you plan to install the software on multiple
computers you must install the timeQplus Biometric server first, after
which the client software can be installed on any number of client computers
on the network. After the install is complete you will be prompted to restart
the computer. Then the Setup Wizard will prompt you to enter the rules your
Time and Attendance system will use to accurately track your employees’
time. The Setup Wizard will also assist connecting the terminal(s) to the
software application.

Step Three: Employee Enrollment

Enrolling the employees is a flexible process and can be adapted to your
environment and your setup preferences. Each employee will be entered
into the Attendance Rx application and assigned a Personal Identification
Number (PIN). The PIN is used for enrolling that employee on a TQ100
terminal. When you add additional terminals the Administrator can simply
add enrolled employees to the new terminal.

NOTE: It may be advantageous to consult a computer technical resource for

some of this effort.

Your TQ100 Biometric Terminal can be configured for a network via an Ethernet or
Communication Port (RS232 or RS485) connection. It is not likely you will use an
RS485 connection therefore an RS232/RS485 Data Converter device is not included
in the box. If you choose this option the converter can be purchased locally or
directly from the manufacturer/dealer.

Step 1: TQ100 Terminal Configuration and Setup

The Fingerprint Identification Unit (FIU) Optical Overlay which is taped
to the front page enhances the ability of the FIU to read fingerprints
where the skin is very dry or for employees with fingerprints that are
marginal. Please note that the overlay is optional and not required.
If you choose to use the overlay, remove it from the plastic bag.
Remove the protective paper covers from the front and back side of
the Overlay, and press the Overlay onto the glass cover of the
fingerprint reader. Care should be taken to cover only the glass,
and remove any air bubbles from underneath the Overlay.

NOTE: The overlay can be removed and cleaned with a wet wipe as
necessary and reapplied to the glass. The sensitivity of the FIU can
also be adjusted at the employee level if necessary.

Connect the power cord to the TQ100 and to the electrical outlet.

DO NOT connect the TQ100 terminal to the computer at this time.

number if required, then press ‘OK’ again.

NOTE: The factory default is set to 38400 which may not be correct for your
computer. This number must be the same as the value you determined in the
process you performed immediately above.
Scroll and highlight –RS485-

If you are configuring for RS232 this value should be set to ‘NO’

If you are configuring for RS485 this value should be set to ‘YES’

Press ‘OK’, then press a scroll button to change it to ‘YES’, or ‘NO’,
based on your configuration, then press ‘OK’.

Scroll and highlight –Ethernet-. If it reads ‘NO’, no action is required. If is
reads ‘YES’, press ‘OK’, then press a scroll button to change it to ‘NO’, then
press ‘OK’.

Now press ‘ESC’. If the terminal displays the ‘Save?’ message, press ‘OK’.
Then press ‘ESC’ several times until the terminal displays the ‘Welcome’
message screen.

NOTE: It is a good idea to record the following values for use during step 2:

Device ID ___________________

Step 2: Software Installation and Terminal Connection

• Insert the timeQplus Biometric CD into the CD-ROM drive and the
Attendance Rx install program should automatically start. Input the
appropriate information when requested. You will be asked to verify
the directory [location] for storing the application files; it is highly
recommended that you accept the default locations.

• After all the files are loaded onto your computer, choose to ‘Restart’
your computer.

On restart, the Setup Wizard will automatically start and lead you through
entering the setup parameters you recorded in the pre-install document.
If you exit the Setup Wizard prior to completion, none of your data will
be saved.

NOTE: You will have the option to change the setup parameters later
if necessary. You also have the option to Initialize the Database which
will reset all of the parameters to the default values and restart the
Setup Wizard from the beginning. Instructions for this operation are
in the online Help.

When you get to the timeQplus Settings screen, press timeQplus
Settings button to get the screen below:

Then check the appropriate box (es) to enable timeQplus Biometric
Ethernet, Comm Port or both types of communication (terminals)
according to your network configuration on this computer.
Then click Next.

If the Ethernet option is selected you will need to setup the parameters for the
Polling and Update cycle:

Polling cycle: The default value of 60 minutes will trigger the application to poll
the terminals every 60 minutes. This value can be adjusted to meet your
requirements. The polling cycle normally takes less than 30 seconds per
terminal.

Update cycle: Attendance Rx will update each terminal with changes to
employee names, employee In/Out status and total hours worked for the current
pay period. You may adjust the time and frequency based on your specific
needs.

NOTE 1: Because terminals are not available for punching In/Out during
a Polling or Update cycle, select times that avoid being within +/- 15
minutes of a shift START or STOP time.

NOTE 2: For installations with both Comm Port and Ethernet port
connections, specify different update times to avoid system
communication conflicts. A difference of 15 to 30 minutes is normally
sufficient.

Step 3: Employee Enrollment

Overview of Employee Enrollment

Employee data such as name, employee number, personal identification
number (PIN) and date of hire will be entered into the Attendance Rx software.
The employee PIN will be used in both the software and the TQ100 terminal to
link each transaction entered at the terminal back to the specific employee in the
Attendance Rx database.

The recommended process for enrolling employees is to first enter the employee
data via the Attendance Rx software. The software can automatically generate
the PINs or you may choose to input your own PINs. The ‘Auto-Increment New
Employee PIN’ is defaulted to ‘on’ during installation. To turn off this function,
click on ‘File’ [upper left on the Attendance Rx main screen], then ‘Employee
Options’…to display the screen below. Uncheck the box next to ‘Auto-Increment
New Employee PINs’, and click ‘OK’.

Enter Employee Data

Log in to timeQplus BIOMETRIC Administrator, click on ‘Employee’ button.

Enter your employee data. After the employee records are entered into the software,
print the Employee Profile Report for all employees. Use the report to enroll the
employees on the TQ100 terminal using the PIN numbers from the report as ID
numbers in the TQ100.

Refer to the TQ100 Terminal User Manual, Chapter Five: Fingerprint
Registration/Enrollment for details on enrolling on the TQ100 terminal.

After an employee is enrolled on the TQ100 terminal, the employee’s template must
be linked to the employee using the Enroll Template function in the software.

Select the Employee you wish to Enroll and click the ‘Enroll Template’ button. Click
‘Next’ to continue the fingerprint enrollment process.

The following screen will appear. Select the appropriate option for the TQ100
terminal in use and click ‘Next’.

timeQplus BIOMETRIC™ Installation Guide 185 timeQplus BIOMETRIC™ Installation Guide

When the following screen appears, select the terminal on which the employee
was enrolled and click ‘Next’.

The following screen will appear and close automatically. No action is required
by you.

The system will attempt to match the PIN you used to enroll this employee’s
fingerprint at the terminal with the same PIN in the Attendance Rx database.

On the following screen, verify that the PIN identified by Attendance Rx is correct for
this employee. If yes, select the ‘Use existing template as the employee template’
option, then click ‘Next’.

A confirmation screen will appear [below]. Click ‘Finish’ to return to the Employee
screen and repeat the process to enroll all of your employees.

timeQplus BIOMETRIC™ Installation Guide 203 timeQplus BIOMETRIC™ Installation Guide
