Description

The ‘TR3 TimeClock’is a wall mounted employee time clock device that records

employee start and end times as well as having the capabilities of multi-level job

costing. It has 256K bytes of battery backed RAM memory for storing data, job cost

tables, employee messages, pin numbers and passwords and a real time clock for time

& date stamping each transaction.

It is powered by a 9Vac plug pack and can also have a rechargeable 3.6V NiMH

battery module fitted which will give approximately 8 hours of operation.

The ‘TR3 TimeClock’has a 192 x 168 pixel back lit LCD display for displaying time

and date, error conditions, data entries and menu options.

The ‘TR3 TimeClock’can use either RS232/RS485 or TCP/IP connection to down

load data, update time and date, send lookup tables and record the setup status from a

computer.

The multi-level menu system allows various setup configurations which allow the

user to configure the functionality of the unit.

The unit also has a built in keypad that can be used to enter employee or job numbers

directly or enter the menu system.

The ‘TR3 TimeClock’ has several options for entering transactions:

1. Magnetic Card Reader.

2. Fingerprint Bio Reader.

3. Keypad.

4. PC/AT keyboard.

5. Barcode Scanner.

The ‘TR3 TimeClock’ is constructed from 1.5mm powder coated steal plate which

makes it very strong and sturdy to handle tuff industrial environments.

Basic Operation

Once the ‘TR3 TimeClock’ is mounted and powered on it will display time, date and

status information on the LCD screen.

Employee data can be entered at any time by the various methods described below.

Soft Buttons

The ‘TR3 TimeClock’ has four unmarked buttons on the keypad that sit along the

bottom of the LCD screen. There are also 4 button positions on the bottom of the

LCD screen that correspond to each of the 4 actual buttons on the keypad.

These buttons change their operation depending on the current operation of the clock

and this is indicated by the button label on the LCD screen.

If a button has no label on the LCD screen then it has no function and will not

operate.

Exception Button

Before a transaction is entered the user has the option of setting an “Exception” by

pushing the Excpt ‘Soft Button’ located as the top second button from the left.

Once the Excpt button is pushed the clock status line will show “Exception Active”.

This will then prompt the user to enter a 2 digit code after they have entered their

employee number. This 2 digit code is stored with the transaction string and can be

used by the employer as a means of signaling different transactions for the same

employee.

If this function is not activated then the exception code is preset to “00” in the

transaction string.

Magnetic Card Reader

1. The magnetic card reader can be used to enter an employee number and a job

costing number by running the card through the slot from top to bottom with

the magnetic strip facing the right hand side.

2. The transaction will automatically be accepted and registered and a will

‘BEEP’ and display the Employee/Job number on the display if it is a valid

card number.

3. If Job Costing is enabled then an Employee number must be swiped first

before entering the Job number.

4. When generating magnetic cards an Employee number does not have a prefix

to the number e.g. 800013. A Job number must have the number “9” with no

Job Level number as a prefix e.g. “912345678” is a Job number 12345678.

When programming barcodes, all numbers must start and finish with the start

and end character “*” e.g. *800013* is the employee number 800013 while

*956789* is a job number 56789

Barcode Scanning

1. Ensure that a barcode scanner is connected to the ‘TR3 TimeClock’PS2 input

connector positioned on the bottom of the clock.

2. Holding the scanner, push the scanners ‘ON’ button and pass over the barcode.

3. The ‘TR3 TimeClock’should ‘BEEP’ and display the Employee/Job number

on the display if it is a valid barcode.

4. Each valid transaction will remain displayed for 10 seconds or until another

barcode is scanned.

5. If Job Costing is enabled then an Employee number must be scanned first

before entering the Job number.

6. When generating barcodes an Employee number must use the letter “E” as a

prefix to the number egg. E800013. A Job number must have the letter “J” as

well as the Job Level number as a prefix e.g. the barcode “J2456” is a level 2

Job number 456.

A Job number can be constructed by using up to 4 sub levels. For example the

job number 12345678 using 4 levels will be made up of 4 different barcodes

of 2 characters. The 4 barcodes will be “J112” “J234” “J356” “J478”.

Each of these 4 barcodes can be scanned in any order and the final Job number

will be displayed as a single number.

Keyboard Entry

Data may also be entered using an external keyboard that has a PS2 connector or from

the built in keypad. Data is keyed in manually starting with the employee number and

if enabled followed by the Job number.

Both the Employee number and the Job number must be terminated with a carriage

return after entering all the numbers.

The Job number is entered as a single number with no level information.

The ‘E’ and ‘J’ prefixes do not need to be entered.

Fingerprint Reader

If fitted users may enter their employee ID into the clock using 1 or more fingerprints.

The fingerprint module is a stand alone finger reader that contains all the enrolled

fingerprint templates. Up to 1900 fingers can be stored in the on board FLASH

memory. The enrolment process uses 2 fingerprint templates for each finger enrolled

to improve the false acceptance rejection. This means that if each user enrolled 1

finger each there could be 950 users stored in the system.

For user security each fingerprint template will contain only the information required

to determine a valid match when a finger is placed on the sensor. A complete

fingerprint image is not able to be produced from these templates and can not be used

in anything other than the fingerprint module.

The finger guide containing the fingerprint sensor is used to position the finger

correctly onto the sensor; however, the more consistent a user is with finger

placement the more reliable the verification will be. Excessively wet and dirty fingers

will also reduce the readability of a fingerprint.

Any build up of dirt on the reader should be cleaned with a clean dry cloth. DO NOT

USE ANY SOLVENTS OR ABRASIVE CLEANERS.

In order for the fingerprint sensor to capture a unique image the ‘core’ part of the

finger must be captured. This ‘core’ area lies in the middle between the tip of the

finger and the first joint. This is the area of the finger which contains all the unique

swirl patterns of the fingerprint. The very tip of the finger does not contain enough

information to provide a unique code between different fingers and should not be

used.

It is best to place the finger onto the sensor so that the middle part between the tip of

the finger and the first joint is placed in the centre of the sensor, this should provide a

good read.

If the sensor miss reads the finger try giving both the finger and the sensor a quick

wipe with a cloth before retrying. Sometimes a dirty film may form on the sensor

which could reduce its sensitivity and even a wipe with a finger is enough to clear the

problem.

Note: The sensor contains a protective coating over the top surface so it is

important that this coating is not scratched by objects, dirt and grit or excessive

pressure from a finger. The longer this coating remains intact the longer life

expectancy of the sensor. Once the coating is damaged the finger read will

become degraded and more verification problems will arise.

Each user must register 1 or more fingers into the clocks finger data base before they

are able to use the fingerprint input method. See the “Menu System” section below for

procedures in setting up the finger module.

The finger data base can be backed up to a computer file and restored to the same or

any other clock the user wants through use of the ‘TimeClock Polling Software’.

Function Cancel

At any stage of either data entry or menu system, the current operation can be

cancelled by pressing the Quit button. This button is a “Soft Button” and is the 4th

Button from the top left. It is only active when the “Soft Button” label contains the

word “Quit”.

System Reset

The ‘TR3 TimeClock’can be reset by holding down the 3rd button from the

left for more than 5 seconds. This function is a hidden function and will not have a

“Soft Button” label and only operates when the clock is in normal operating mode.

Once reset, the unit will display the version numbers, input and output modules fitted,

memory fitted.

Menu System

Entering the Menu

Factory Default Access Code: 1234.

To enter the Menu System both the 1st and 4th top buttons must be pushed together.

The Menu System has a 4 digit security code which must be entered before access to

the menu is allowed. The security code is entered by using the keypad buttons and

pushing the Enter button to accept the entry.

As each of the 4 digits are entered there will be a corresponding “*” character

displayed on the display in that digits position.

Once all 4 digits of the access code have been selected and match the users stored

code the display will show the first page of the menu.

Using the Menu

To scroll up or down the menu list use the UP or Down buttons. Each selection

will be highlighted on the display.

To select a displayed menu option for editing, push the Enter button.

Once a menu item has been selected you can modify that options parameters by using

the UP , Down buttons or the keypad depending on the function required.

To save the modified value push the Enter button. This will save the new value

entered and return back to the beginning of the menu system.

At any stage within the menu system if the Quit button is pressed the current

operation will be aborted. Pressing the Quit button will also exit the menu system if

no menu items have been selected.

The unit will automatically exit the menu system if there is no button activity after 60

seconds.

Enter - First push asks for confirmation of new code.

- Second push accepts new code.

9. Contrast Adjust

This option is used to adjust the visibility of the display. The value ranges

from 20 (lightest) to 70 (darkest). Under most applications a setting of 35 to 45 should

be about right.

The visibility of the display is temperature and angle dependent. This means that at

low room temperatures the display will be light and the contrast will have to be

increased in order to see the display properly where if the room temperature is high

the display may look quite dark in which case the contrast must be decreased.

Different viewing angles (e.g. looking from the top or bottom of the display) may also

affect the visibility of the display and the contrast may need to be adjusted in order to

get the best visibility.

Available ‘Soft Buttons’:

Up - Increases the contrast (darkens the display).

Down - Decreases the contrast (lightens the display).

Quit - Exits without saving changes.

Enter - Saves contrast setting and exits.

10. Modem Enable/Disable

This option is used only with RS232 communications and is used to enable the

use of communications through a modem. This option will enable the ‘TimeClock’ to

setup a modem on the serial port using a predefined modem string which has

previously been loaded into the clock from the polling software.
