Part 1. QRF900 ARS Overview
Thank you for purchasing the QRF900 Audience Response System (ARS). The QRF900 ARS uses
a 2.4G RF technology to receive instant feedback from the participants (up to 400 persons)
simultaneously. Working completely out of Microsoft PowerPoint, the QClick ARS software is easy to
learn and easy to use. The quiz question and the answer can be easily and quickly created using
built-in PowerPoint templates. In addition to PowerPoint, QClick software can load other non-
PowerPoint quiz files such as Word documents, PDF’s, and Spreadsheets. Also, the software has
been designed to directly load XLM quiz files (such as Exam View) with auto-conversion.
Additionally, you can use hardcopy tests and have your students answer using the QClick ARS.
Using QClick’s Free Style activity mode, instructors can start quizzes without pre planning.
Questions can be instantly captured from your PC, the internet, a White Board, or from a lecture.
The QClick ARS software has a built-in white board tool allowing you to draw and capture quiz
materials easily.
The QClick system is composed of hardware (instructor remote keypad, participants’ remote
keypads, RF main receiver, and extended USB cable) and the QClick software. The instructor
keypad incorporates a remote mouse and some PC keyboard functions allowing control of the slide
selection as well as the software functions.
Equipped with the enhanced main controller function, the instructor keypad incorporates the main
control functionality allowing the instructor the freedom of not having to use a computer to conduct
the tests. Before the quiz, the instructor downloads the class setup information into the instructor
keypad; using only the instructor keypad, up to 8 sessions of quizzes may be given. After the quiz,
the instructor uploads the test data into the QClick system database.
The QRF900 is equipped with 6 line LCD display and a big non-volatile memory. Both the student
and instructor keypads can be used in any class by simply logging into a class which the QClick will
automatically search for and then offer the ability to register for the class. The QClick keypad also
allows a student to ask a question by directly communicating to the instructor with one single key
press. 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 information with
others. The non-volatile memory in the student remote keypad can store a whole semester’s
homework and exam answers. Students can use the keypads to receive the homework assignment,
do the homework from home, and then turn in the assignment in the class with just a simple key
press. Each student keypad has one unique Student ID which can be easily set and reset by a
manager or by a user. If a student keypad is lost or damaged, it can be replaced with any new
keypad by just resetting its Student ID.
The QRF900 ARS engages individual responses through these non-Free Style activities: Normal
Quiz, Paper Quiz, Homework, Rush Quiz, Elimination, Survey, Vote, and Roll Call. Free Style
activities include: Normal Quiz, Rush Quiz and Elimination. The QRF900 displays instant results in
the form of a histogram and a score board after each question is completed.
Note: The words Quiz and Exam are used interchangeably in many places in this document.

button locks out the rest of the students and is the only person able to respond to this particular
question. The time for the response is preset before the test by the instructor. Points can be added
for a correct answer or subtracted for a wrong answer.
3.1.2.5 Elimination:
This mode is similar to the normal mode. Only those students answering correctly can continue with
the test. Those answering incorrectly are automatically eliminated.

session. The loaded quiz file or answer sheet contains the mode activity information in each
question set up. If you choose the Multiple Mode as your quiz session activity mode, the system

system reads from the embedded mode set up for each question in the quiz file or in the answer
sheet. If a loaded quiz file or a loaded answer sheet contains questions with multiple modes set up,
but you use Normal Quiz, or Rush Quiz, or Elimination as the whole quiz session activity mode,
the activity mode you select will overwrite the embedded mode set up in each question. For example,
if you select the Normal Quiz as your current quiz session activity mode, but the current question
mode is set to Rush Quiz, the system will ignore the Rush Quiz activity mode and use the Normal
Quiz as the whole quiz session activity mode.

responses and provides a report of the survey results. You may use the system Exam Editor to
create a survey file. A set of value points from high to low is assigned to the items, which are used

with the survey file should be loaded prior to starting the survey activity. The responses from the
audiences are used to evaluate the survey questions; there are no correct or incorrect answers
related to the responses.
3.1.2.8 Vote:

correct or incorrect answer information. When you select the Vote activity mode, the system allows
you to only load the vote file in PowerPoint format. No answer sheet is needed. In this activity mode,
the audience’s response is either a positive or a negative with no correct answer.

mode, the system won’t ask you to load in any quiz files or any answer sheets prior to starting the

The working frequency of QRF 900 system
1. Adopting the 2402.00-2482.00 MHz ISM/SRD band systems
2. The mentioned channel is divided into 41 working carrier frequency points which can set up the
host carrier wave through PC softwareThe specific point of the student and the instructor at which
is through the automated search, the main communication equipment to achieve the carrier point of
unity
3. QRF900 system carrier wave frequency point calculation formula:
AQRF900 system carrier wave frequency : F = F BASE + CH* offset
The fundamental frequency (F BASE =2402.001MHz)
Carrier wave offset (offset=2MHz)
BQRF900 system working in CHANNR=5 that working carrier wave frequency:
F = 2402.00MHz +5*2MHz = 2412.00MHz
Other working carrier wave frequency by analogy
4. In QRF900 system , the specific value of 41 carrier wave frequency points are as follows
