Getting Started
Important!
Do not attempt to service the TQ600 yourself. Opening the
terminal will void the warranty. Always follow the
instructions in the user guide.
• Do not place the terminal in direct sunlight. Bright light may
significantly affect fingerprint reads or cause fingerprint
verification to fail. The terminal is designed for indoor use in
a temperature range of 32-104º F (0-40º C). Keep the terminal
away from heat sources such as radiators.
• The terminal warranty does not cover defects or damages
arising from improper installation, improper storage, abuse,
ordinary wear or unauthorized service.

Terminal Configurations
The TQ600 is available with either a fingerprint sensor or a proximity
badge sensor. The fingerprint sensor provides the most secure user
verification as it uniquely identifies each user. The proximity (“Prox”)
badge is a faster method of verifying a user since you only need place
your badge near the front of the terminal for verification but security
could be circumvented since a user other than the owner of the badge
can use the badge.
This manual provides information for both terminal configurations.
Sections specifically about fingerprint verification or proximity badge
verification will pertain only to the corresponding terminal.

Basic Concepts
This section contains definitions and descriptions of fingerprint
identification concepts:
z User Enrollment: Fingerprints
z User Identification/Verification
z Threshold
z User ID (PIN Number)
z Privilege Levels
z Start-up
3
The two most important functions of fingerprint identification are
user enrollment and user verification.
User Enrollment: Fingerprints
Enrollment is the process of capturing a user’s fingerprint and
storing it as a “template” in the TQ600 along with a unique five (5)
digit user ID. The user’s fingerprint template is created by taking
three sample fingerprints on the TQ600.
Each user should enroll at least two different fingers so that if an
enrolled finger is injured an alternate finger can be used. The
TQ600 allows users to enroll 1-10 fingerprints.
- 8 -
User Identification / Verification
User identification is the process of comparing a user’s fingerprint
against a fingerprint template stored in the terminal. When a
user’s fingerprint matches a fingerprint template stored in the
TQ600 the terminal will show a successful match, thus verifying
the user’s identity.
Threshold
The threshold is a predefined number (set by the terminal system
administrator) which establishes the degree of correlation necessary
for a fingerprint comparison to be deemed a match. It can be
thought of as the minimum accuracy required to confirm a
fingerprint match. Some biometric systems call this the
“sensitivity” level. If the score resulting from a fingerprint read
compared to a fingerprint template stored in the terminal exceeds
the threshold the templates are approved as a “match” (though the
templates themselves are not identical).
The threshold establishes a balance between False Acceptance Rate
(FAR) and False Rejection Rate (FRR). FAR means the probability
that a biometric system will incorrectly identify an individual or
will fail to reject an impostor. FRR means the probability that a
biometric system will fail to identify an enrolled individual.
- 9 -
The threshold value is a global setting, i.e., it is set for all users.
If a user has a problem with fingerprint verification due to worn
fingerprints or dry skin you may need to have the user enter their
User ID in order to match their fingerprint to their stored template.
This is referred to as 1:1 (one to one) verification since they are
specifically comparing their fingerprint to their stored template.
Raising the threshold increases security or the probability that a
successful fingerprint read accurately corresponds to the correct
stored fingerprint template. Lowering the threshold increases the
possibility of a false acceptance. The correct balance is vital for
maximum security as well as usability.
Notice: FAR and FRR are interrelated: For example, raising the
threshold reduces FAR but increases FRR, while lowering the
threshold increases FAR but reduces FRR. The threshold value
can be set independently for “one to many” (1:N) matching and
“one to one” (1:1) matching. The default threshold for (1:N) is 35
and the default threshold for (1:1) matching is 15.

User ID (PIN number)
Before beginning fingerprint enrollment, a user is assigned a User
ID number (sometimes referred to as a PIN number). This User ID
number is used to recall fingerprint templates or passwords each
time verification is requested.
Privilege Levels
Privilege levels are the levels at which users are authorized to
access terminal functions. These levels define the authority of a
user to access specified administrative functions including the
ability to view, edit, add, or renew specified information categories.
Privilege levels are built-in terminal functions that can be set as
required. The TQ600 has four user privilege levels:
User, Enroller, Admin (administrator) and Supervisor.
z Users are people whose identity must be verified to
record time such as punching in/out or the time spent working
on a job or working in specific departments.
z Enrollers can enroll supervisors, administrators,
enrollers and users. Enrollers can delete users. Enrollers can
access “User Manage” and “System Information” menus.
z Administrators (Admin) can enroll supervisors,
administrators, enroller and users. Administrators can delete
enrollers and users. Administrators can access all operations,
except “Advanced Options”.
- 11 -
z Supervisor is the highest authorization level.
Supervisors can enroll supervisors, administrators, enrollers
and users. Supervisors can delete administrators, enrollers
and users. Supervisors can access all functions and change all
setups.
Note: If no user has administrative privileges (enroller, administrator
or supervisor) in the terminal, ALL users will be enrolled with
“Supervisor” privileges.
To change a user that is currently enrolled as an administrator or enroller,
delete the user and then re-enroll the user with the new privilege level.

Enrolling – Fingerprint
Terminals
This chapter describes how to enroll and verify users on the TQ600.
The following topics are included:
z Fingerprint Enrollment Tips
z Enrolling User
z Testing an Enrollment
z Enrolling an Auxiliary Fingerprint of User
z Verifying Your Identity
Fingerprint Enrollment Tips
It is recommended that you use your index or middle finger for
enrollment. If the fingerprints on your preferred hand are worn or
damaged try using your other hand.
The TQ600 will require three (3) sample fingerprints to enroll a user.
Place your finger in the middle of the sensor. To ensure better
fingerprint reads take each fingerprint sample with slightly different
positioning; one centered, one rolled slightly to the left and the last
rolled slightly to the right. The different angles will help account for
different finger positioning during actual use.
- 13 -
CORRECT finger positioning:
Place finger flat on the sensor surface
Place finger in the center of the sensor surface
INCORRECT finger positioning:
