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.

User Enrollment: Fingerprints
User Identification/Verification
Threshold
User ID (PIN Number)
Privilege Levels
Start-up
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.

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.

CORRECT finger positioning:
Place finger flat on the sensor surface
Place finger in the center of the sensor surface
INCORRECT finger positioning:

Enrolling Users – Fingerprint Terminals
After configuring the TQ600 you are ready to enroll users. If
there are no users on the system all users will have a privilege level
of supervisor, if an administrator (Admin) is enrolled on the system
they will be the only one allowed to enroll a new user.
The TQ600 provides three ways to enroll, Fingerprint Enrollment,
Password Enrollment, or Fingerprint with Password Enrollment.
Fingerprint Enrollment is preferable for personnel with good
fingerprint definition; Fingerprint with Password is preferable for
users that have difficulty verifying their finger print. Password
Enrollment is necessary for users whose fingerprints are too worn
or damaged for the terminal to read their fingerprint.
To start the enrollment process, identify yourself. Press [MENU],
enter your ID number or fingerprint, and verify your identity.
Note: If this is the first enrollment in a new or empty system,
you will not be prompted for verification.

User Verification Types
Fingerprint Verification
There are (3) fingerprint verification (“authentication”) types:
1:1 Verification (“One to One” Verification)
In this mode, a user enters their 5-digit User ID and takes a
fingerprint reading. The TQ600 compares their fingerprint to the
fingerprint template of the User ID that was entered, thus a 1:1
comparison. The 1:1 verification method is the fastest verification
method since it only has to compare the user’s fingerprint to one
template stored in the terminal.
1) In the initial interface, enter your ID number and the following
appears:
1:1 FP Match
User ID 00011
ESC
OK
Note: The User ID is 5 digits. If you enter a number with less
than 5 digits the TQ600 adds 0’s in order to create a 5 digit
User ID, i.e., if you enter “11” the TQ600 will Enroll “00011”.
- 24 -
2) Press [OK] and the following appears:
FP Verify
User ID 00011
Place Finger…
3) It continues
for about 0.5 seconds.
If the test is successful, the following appears:
Verify
User ID 00011
Verified.
4) If your identity cannot be verified, you are prompted to try
again, the following appears:
1:1 FP Match
Please Try Agn.
It continues for about 0.5 seconds then returns to the start-up
window.
- 25 -
1:N Verification (“One to Many” Verification)
In this mode, a user simply takes a fingerprint reading. The TQ600
compares their fingerprint to all of the fingerprint templates stored
in the terminal. 1:N verification takes more time than 1:1
verification. The verification time is dependent on the number of
fingerprint templates stored in the terminal.
1) Place finger on the sensor surface, the following appears:
FP Verify
Remove Finger
2) It continues for about 0.5 seconds. If the test is successful, the
following appears:
Verify
User ID 00001
Verified.
3) If your identity cannot be verified, you are prompted to try
again, the following appears:
FP Verify
Please Try Agn.
It continues for about 0.5 seconds, return to the start-up window.
- 26 -
Password Verification
A password 1 to 5 digits long is used to validate authentication.
Password verification can be used in special cases, i.e., when all of
a user’s fingerprints are damaged. This method of verification
does not provide the security of biometric identification and should
only be used when absolutely necessary. Note: when a user with
an enrolled password attempts (1:1) verification the TQ600 will ask
for the User’s password and the user will not have the option of
taking a fingerprint reading.
1) To verify a password, enter your ID number, the following
appears:
