9CAMERA USE APPLICATION NOTES
The following best practices are recommended for recording punches
using camera validation:
•The puncher’s face should be well lit and be between 18 and 30
inches from the camera lens (which is on the top center of the
screen).
•There should not be any other faces in the view of the camera
because the software will then not be able to decide which face
to capture.
•There should not be a lot of movement behind the puncher.
For this reason, the clock should not be mounted in busy areas
if the camera function is to be used.
•There should not be a light source in the camera’s view.
There are two camera validation options:

DF Touch
Page 18 of 32
•Face detection and capture: The clock captures an image of the
user’s face and saves it in the client’s instance so that it can
then optionally be viewed on the timesheet. This option uses a
great deal of data storage.
•Facial recognition: Employees are enrolled for verification (i.e.,
their image is taken, saved, and distributed to clocks). When
employees punch, the clock attempts to validate that the image
it sees corresponds to the saved image.
The estimated punch rate when using camera validation should be
between 1 and 6 per minute depending on the option selected.
10 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The DF Touch Clock has two parts: the clock and the wall-mount. The
Clock is shipped in a cardboard carton together with the wall-mount,
keys for the lock, a 5 ft Ethernet cable, and the external power supply.
If necessary, detach the clock from the wall-mount using the key
supplied. Insert the key into the lock at the bottom of the wall-mount
and turn clock-wise 90 degrees, then lift the clock up and away from the
wall-mount. To install the wall mount, you will need four #8 screws and
(if necessary) the appropriate wall plugs.
10.1 Installing the wall-mount
Install the clock in areas that are well lit and not exposed to very hot,
cold, damp or dusty conditions. Install the wall-mount exactly
horizontally.

DF Touch
Page 19 of 32
Figure 1: Wall-mount from rear
Use the holes marked A in Figure 1 to mount the clock to a wall, or the
holes marked B to attach the wall-mount to a standard NEMA double
gang electrical box.
The recommended height for mounting the clock differs depending on
your organization’s needs:
•To accommodate users in wheelchairs, install the wall-mount
with its top edge 48 inches from the ground.
•If the camera feature will be used, or if wheelchair access is not
required, install the wall mount with its top edge 56 inches from
the ground.
If the wall-mount is attached to an electrical box, insert the low-voltage
power cable and network cable through the wall. If the wall-mount is
attached to a wall, insert these cables through the cable slot.
Figure 2 shows a wall-mount attached to the wall with the low-voltage
and network cables fed through the cable slot into the lock area. The
cam lock arm must be at 90 degrees to the wall.

10.2 Connecting and attaching the clock
With the clock held close to the wall-mount, insert the cable plugs into
the appropriate receptacles. Figures 3 and 4 show the clock with cables
connected.
With the cables connected, position the three hangers on the rear
housing over and above the hooks on the wall mount, using the tab at
the top of the clock as a guide. Then, push the clock down into the
hooks.
With the clock firmly on the hooks, rotate the key 90 degrees counter-
clockwise to secure the lock to the wall-mount. Finally, remove the key
from the lock.
