Purpose of this User’s Guide

The purpose of this user’s guide is not meant to be a complete manual for the product. It is a quick reference to get you started.

Please refer to the PayClock Help for detailed product information, setup guidance, and operation information.

Product Overview

Reliability, functionality and ease of use are trademarks of the

PayClock software and terminals. With the PC600 terminal, employees can use a badge or PIN to punch in and out, view messages or benefit time balances – it’s that simple. The PayClock software and PC600 terminals are the ideal solution for businesses that want to track employee time and automate payroll.

The PC600 terminal connects to your network for communications with the PayClock time and attendance software. The terminal utilizes a powerful Windows CE based application and a touch-panel display for inputting data by employees, supervisors or administrators. The PC600 terminal validates that the employee is in the database before recording the transaction.

The PC600 can operate in “Live Sync” (online mode). When operating with Live Sync enabled (online mode), communications with the pc are in real-time. For example, when an employee punches at the PC600 it is immediately added to the database and is available for viewing or editing. Another example is if the employee does an inquiry, the PC600 will initiate communications with the database and retrieve the inquiry information and display it on the screen.

When operating with Live Sync disabled (offline mode), all transactions are held in the terminals memory until the terminal is polled, and then the data will be added to the database.

The PC600 terminal offers a large color LCD touch-panel that displays employee information along with an audio prompt. Upon a

P A Y C L O C K & P C 6 0 0 U S E R ’ S G U I D E

successful transaction with live sync enabled, the display will show the employee’s name, total worked time, In / Out status and an audio/text prompt. With live sync disabled, the display will only show the employees name.

Features and Specifications

• Windows CE 6.0 - The power of embedded Windows CE to provide fast and dependable operation.

• LCD Color Touch-Panel - Use the large easy to read touchpanel for set up and data entry.

• Two Operating Modes - The terminal is functional with Live

Sync enabled (online) or Live Sync disabled (offline). When

Live Sync is enabled the terminal is real-time with the computer.

• User friendly design - Large easy to read touch-panel.

• Comprehensive support agreements minimize technical difficulties.

• Numerous accessory options to enhance the functionality.

Install the PC600

Step 1: Select a site to install your PC600 terminal that will be convenient to employees clocking in and out. When deciding where the terminal will be installed, keep in mind that an 115vAC power outlet should be within 6 feet of the mounting location as well as a connection to the network (LAN).

Step 2: After selecting the appropriate installation site, use masking tape to hold the included Mounting Template onto the wall. Drill holes using the template as a guide. Note: the bottom of the terminal should be about 45 inches from the floor.

Remove the Template from the wall and install the included mounting screws. Install the three larger screws, leaving approximately 3/16 inch of the screws exposed. Do not tighten all

the way. Retain the smaller screw for later.

Note: For sheetrock walls, drill a 3/16” diameter hole through each of the four screw locations; each approximately 1-1/2” deep. Install the plastic “anchors” included in the mounting screw packet.

P A Y C L O C K & P C 6 0 0 U S E R ’ S G U I D E

Step 3: Plug the RJ45 network cable into the Ethernet port and the

Power Adapter plug into the Power Adapter port which is located in the compartment on the back of the terminal.

Step 4: Insert the small “L”-shaped security bracket into the slot at the bottom-rear of the PC600, so that the tab with the hole points downward, away from the keyhole slot that can be seen immediately above.

Hang the terminal on the wall, aligning the three keyholes on the rear of the enclosure with the three protruding screw heads, and then pressing downward on the terminal housing until it lowers onto the screws.

Screw the small screw into the hole of the tab from the small “L”shaped bracket at the bottom of the enclosure. This will fasten the

PC600 to the wall and keep it from being easily removed.

When finished, plug the power adapter into an AC wall outlet and proceed to the software installation.

Setting up PayClock

How does PayClock calculate time?

PayClock uses an open shift to define the start of the workday. An employee’s open shift starts with his/her first punch of the day and continues until the day change or for 14 hours if working past the day change. The work day length is set to 14 hours by default.

Example 1:

• Jane Doe's first punch Monday morning was at 7:30 am.

• She didn’t punch out to leave for the day until 10:00 pm.

PayClock calculated her time as 14 hours and 30 minutes because she didn’t work past the day change.

Example 2:

• Jane Doe's first punch on Tuesday was at 1:00 pm.

• Using the maximum work day length setting of 14 hours,

PayClock defines the expected end of her open shift to be by

3:00 am on Wednesday.

• Jane’s time will calculate and no missing registration exception will be generated if she punches out to complete her shift by 3:00 am on Wednesday.

• Jane’s time will not calculate and a missing registration exception will be generated if she punches out to complete her shift after 3:00 am on Wednesday.
