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.
Threshold Threshold means a value that is set to ensure the minimum accuracy required to confirm a match with a finger template stored in a biometric system. The threshold setting establishes a balance between False Acceptance Rate (FAR) and False Rejection Rate (FRR). FAR means the probability that a biometric system will incorrectly identify a user or will fail to reject an impostor.
Privilege levels are built-in time clock functions that can be set as required. The TQ600 has four user privilege levels: User, Enroller, Admin (administrator) and Supervisor.
Start-up Press the power button ( ) to turn the TQ600 on. The Start-up” window will appear. Press and hold the power button ( ) for 2 seconds to turn off the TQ600.

Daylight Savings Time (DST) DST, also called Daylight Saving Time, is the practice of temporarily advancing clocks during the summertime so that evenings have more daylight and mornings have less. It has been introduced as a method of saving energy. Typically clocks are adjusted forward one hour near the start of spring and are adjusted backward in autumn.
Mode 1 Mode 2 Note: 1. Let’s take the following example: DST starts on 2007-9-1 4:00 and ends on 2008-4-1 4:00. 2. If Mode2 is selected, as of 2007, DST is set up as follows: September Sunday, the sixth week of the month. However the next year, 2008, September only has five weeks rather than six.
