Part 1. QRF600 ARS Overview

The QRF600 Audience Response System (ARS) is an easy-to-use RF response system that obtains

immediate feedback from each participant (up to 400 persons) synchronously. Working completely out of

Power Point, the QClick software is both easy to learn and use. The system is also organized for instructors to

use any no-Power Point formats of document exam files or hardcopy exam paper to start an exam, or with free

mouse and PC keypad functions making it easy to control any formats of showing slice and the system

functions in a far distance.

The QRF600 LCD display and no volatile memory in student and instructor keypads make it possible

automatic RF channel searching. The beauty of RF communication makes it easy for a student to raise a

question by directly communicating to an instructor with one single key press, but not interrupting other

people. At the same time, an instructor can view each student’s exam performances and the exam statistical

data on the remote LCD display without sharing the private student exam info with others. The no volatile

memory in the student remote keypad can hold as much as a whole semester’s homework and exam answers

the form of a histogram and score board after each question is finished in a quiz.
