Firmware Update for Time Zone Issue

New version of TR610 firmware (5.00.00) is released for conformity to the current AggreGate timestamp mechanism. The timestamp is now unified as UTC time and TR610 can be set to its local time zone for correct time disply. For all AggreGate versions before version 4.50.00, you should still use the older firmware (4.00.01), for all versions after, you should use the latest firmware.

New TR610 Model with Mifare

In addition to the existing TR610R, we have now released the TR610MF equipped with a Mifare proximity reader.

Overview

The TR610 is a simple and easy-to-use Time Recorder. It utilizes RFID technology to allow for quick user registration -- users may not even have to take their employee card out of their wallet to swipe it.

The TR610's bright LCD display and four buttons make for a simple interface with a very low learning curve. Using familiar icons from other GigaTMS products, new users quickly understand how to clock in and clock out. The display also shows the current time, date and memory status.

The display can also be used to configure the device: Using a "Master Card", the Administrator can access the on-screen menu system and change device settings. The menu system is navigated using the four buttons on the device.

Ethernet connectivity makes the TR610 easy to administer remotely.

The TR610 comes with an a very versatile software solution called AggreGate Time and Attendance. AggreGate Time and Attendance was developed to dovetail with the TR610 and provide optimal administration and reporting facilities.

Of course, you can always use the TR610's built-in web administration interface, too. It is password-protected, and allows an administrator to remotely manage all device settings and download or search the internal event log.

The TR610 can also automatically synchronize the internal clock with an Internet time server, so that the time is always correct.

System integrators and developers may also be interested to know that the TR610 is internally based on Tibbo BASIC, and its application is open-source and may be obtained freely and customized.
