Punching at the Recorder

The time recorder is shipped from the factory with default program settings that make it ready for operation. The user needs only to set time and date for the specific time zone.

However if you do not program the time recorder to your individual requirements, you will not benefit from many of its outstanding features.

These benefits include features such as duplicate punch protection, automatic break deduction, and forgotten “Out” punch supervision. The time recorder also offers a number of useful time card management features such as card validity duration, card deleting functions and time card initialization.

This chapter provides helpful hints and a description of your time recorder’s operation. It is intended to guide you through questions pertaining to its use and the application of the various options available through programming.

5-2 Operation Chapter

It is only possible to print on one side of the time card. The back side of the card bears the bar code which enables the time recorder to identify the individual time card being inserted.

The front side of the card is divided into various fields.

Card header: Contains individual fields and entries, such as card user, company, accounting period, etc.

It is possible to write manually in the card header area.

Print field: The time recorder prints the recorded IN/OUT times in the print field columns. The two columns that follow each pair of IN/OUT columns are used for printing various types of totals. The final configuration of what totals are printed and how many IN/OUT columns per line are used, is determined by the user when programming the time recorder’s print format.

The print field has the ability to accept 31 lines of print.

DO NOT WRITE IN THE PRINT FIELD.

Date:

IN/

OUT:

Total

Interval Total IN/OUT punch

Date

The date format for prints can be programmed. See chapter 4 "Programming", "Date format". The vertical letter abbreviation represents the weekday.

Employee attendance punches

The print format of hours and minutes is fixed and cannot be changed. The vertical letter abbreviations

"A" and "P" stand for AM and PM.

Any number of IN/OUT punches can be recorded in a day by the use of more than one line per day.

However, the first punch of a new day, will always be printed on a new line.

Bottom line:

Total:

1 st

Column Format: HH.MM

This is the first of two time card “Total” columns provided for each pair of IN/OUT punches. If used, it will display the elapsed time between the two immediately preceding IN/OUT punches. If not used, the column will be blank. Column use is determined when selecting one of eight print formats during time recorder setup.

If the function "MAX ON" is enabled and the user forgets to punch out, the time recorder will print

"MAX ON" in this column instead of the elapsed time.

Total:

2 nd

Column Format: HHH.MM

This is the second of two time card “Total” columns provided for each pair of IN/OUT punches If used, it will display the cumulative worked time total for the entire time card. If not used, the column will be blank. Column use is determined when selecting one of eight print formats during time recorder setup. If the time card becomes full, it is possible to carry the total over to a new time card using the feature

“deleting cards” which is described in chapter 5.

The time recorder cannot print below the bottom line. The area can be used however for manual hand written notes.

Hint

The time card print fields are defined by the time recorder and cannot be changed.

In order to obtain a precise and correct print the time recording cards should always have the same dimensions.

Requirements for Trouble Free Time Recording

• Store time cards in a dry place.

Protect time cards against damage, especially folding, tearing and bending.

Protect time cards against contamination from such things as dust, oil, grease, and steam. They could damage the time card paper or distort the bar-code.

• Regularly inspect the time recorder’s cartridge ink ribbon and when the printing becomes faint, replace it with a new cartridge.

Do not expose time cards to direct sunlight.

Store time cards in the boxes which they were shipped in.

Please do not keep them loose.

5-4 Operation Chapter

IN / OUT Punches

Using the PERFECT 2040 time recorder is very easy. An employee inserts the time card into the card receiver throat at the top of the machine. A motorized device pulls the card down into the time recorder. Automatically, the time recorder prints the time in the correct position on the time card and returns the time card up to the top of the machine. The employee then removes the time card and places it back into the time card rack.

Hint

The black function key to the right of the card receiver is only used for manual card deleting when enabled in programming.

See section "Card Management / Card Organisation".

Proceeding:

1. Insert the time card down into the card receiver and release it when the motorized device begins to pull the card into the time recorder.

Hint: The side on which the user wishes to print must face the front.

2. The time recorder automatically aligns the time card and prints the time in the correct card position.

Hint: During the printing procedure

“CARD IN PROCESS” is displayed.

3. The printed card is transported back to the top of the machine and released for removal by the employee.

Hint: The card can be removed if “REMOVE CARD” is displayed.

4. Compare the time card print to the time recorder’s displayed time.

Attention

Never use force to insert the time card and never obstruct or cover the time card receiver.

Double Punch Disabling

The time recorder is provided with the capability to inhibit double punching of time cards. In the “Duplicate Punch” software feature, the user specifies the minimum number of minutes that must elapse after a time punch (either IN or OUT) before the time recorder will allow a subsequent punch on the same time card.

Condition: Software feature "DUPLICATE PUNCH" is enabled and a minimum elapsed time between punches has been programmed. See chapter 4, Getting Started, section

"Programming" .

Application: This function serves to avoid unintentional duplicate punches on the same time card.

Example: The programmed minimum elapsed time = 2 minutes

1. 09:15 h punch

2. 09:16 h punch

is printed on the card.

is not printed on the card.

When attempting to punch the second time, the recorder rejects the card and the following message will be displayed:

As long as the card is in the recorder the message remains on the display. When the card is removed, date and time will be displayed again.

5-6 Operation Chapter

Forgotten OUT Punches (Maximum Presence)

The time recorder can be programmed to ignore the elapsed time between a pair of

IN/OUT punches if the elapsed time exceeds a user defined number of hours. This is done to prevent inflated time card totals caused by employees forgetting to punch out. It also serves to maintain the correct IN/OUT punch sequence on employees time card when they have forgotten to punch OUT.

Condition: Software feature "MAX ON" is active. The maximum elapsed time for a single pair of IN/OUT punches has been programmed. See chapter 4, Getting Started, "Programming" section.

Application: This feature detects and adjusts for forgotten OUT punches.

When the maximum elapsed time has passed since an IN punch was made, the time recorder prints MAX-ON on the time card. It ignores all elapsed time from the IN punch and treats the next punch as an IN punch so that IN/OUT punch sequencing is kept in order.

Hint

The automatic break deduction associated with the forgotten out punch will not be made from the time card total when the MAX-ON routine has been initiated.

Example: Maximum time per punch pair: = 10 hours.

Date

21.11.00

22.11.00

IN

AM 8:25

AM 8:15

OUT Total time

(out punch forgotten) MAX ON

PM 0:10 12.00

The time between 08:25 h and 08:15 h of the following day will not be calculated and added to the time card total. Instead,

"MAX ON" is printed on the card. When MAX ON is printed on the time card, the time recorder will always print an IN punch as well.

Punching on the same day Punching on the following day

Card Full

The time recorder automatically senses when the time card is full. Up to 31 lines of punches can be made on each time card. Each row can accommodate either one or two pairs of IN/OUT punches depending on which print format is selected by the user.

After printing the last OUT punch of the 31st line, the time recorder reports:

This message will always appear when all 31 lines are full and when the time card is inserted again. The time recorder rejects the card immediately and the time card has to be removed.

How to continue punching:

The card organisation and handling options you select mainly depend on your individual requirements for time management and the organisational structure of your company. The possibilities shown below only constitute a functional frame of the recorder. Section "Card Management / Card Organisation" has to be observed.

This is the easiest and quickest way to continue the punching operation without having to realize further steps - simply insert the new card with new card number and register punching time.

Condition: The card number is not yet used and lies within the defined card number area.

Further possibilities: In addition you can define that the old card is deleted in case of a card change (DELETING CARDS). The card user himself can carry out this step on the recorder. See also section

"DELETING CARDS without carryover".

When the old card is deleted a total or weekly qualification hours can be carried over to the new card as well (DELETING

CARDS WITH CARRYOVER resp. DELETING CARDS WITH

CARRYOVER WEEKLY QUALIFICATION HOURS). This step can also be carried out by the card user or a supervisor.

Hint

Cards can be changed at any time, even if they are not full, e.g. when the card is damaged. Within an calculation period it is recommendable to carry over totals with a card change.

See also section "Card Management / Card Organisation".

5-8 Operation Chapter

Card Management / Card Organization

Your PERFECT offers several time card management options. Which options you select to use depends on the requirements, policies and practices of your company.

The following sections are intended to offer you an overview of the management of time cards as it applies to the PERFECT 2040. The following procedures and descriptions should be considered as recommendations and not requirements for all companies.

What to Know about Card Usage in the Time Recorder

Some thought should be given to time card management before starting use of the time recorder. If you no further settings are carried out, the PERFECT will overwrite the totals of the oldest time card when it exceeds the card limit.

How many employees will be using the time recorder and how many time cards will be required?

How long is your pay period?

Do you have more than one PERFECT making it necessary to limit which cards can be read by which time recorder?

How long do you want the PERFECT to store time card totals for time cards that are no longer active?

Because the PERFECT can store totals for a maximum of up to 250 time cards

(depending on the employee capacity of the unit), how do you wish to carry out the deletion of obsolete time cards? Automatically by the number of days since the last punch or by simple overwriting of the oldest card in the time recorder’s memory?

Do you want to only delete cards manually from the time recorder’s memory?

How you program your PERFECT depends on the answers to the above questions as well as several others.

One of the main questions is: "What happens with old time cards from previous pay periods or from time cards no longer used? "

There are several methods to delete cards on the recorder. How you program time card deletion for your PERFECT will affect the procedures that you give to your staff.

Card management software tools

Card deleting: When enabled, this functions allows the manual deletion of time cards.(DELETING CARDS and DELETING CARDS WITH

CARRYOVER). For security reasons, careful consideration must be given when leaving this function enabled during normal operation. It allows anyone with access to the time recorder and time cards to delete those time cards .

The designed application of this feature is for a supervisor to temporarily enable the function and delete certain employee’s

time cards due to employment status. After deleting the employee time card, the supervisor will then disable the feature.

If the time recorder is used for non-time-and-attendance applications such as job costing and parking lot operation, this application is also used when a job is finished or when the car leaves the parking lot.

Card validity duration

By enabling this feature, time cards are automatically deleted from the time recorder’s memory after the time card has not been used by a user defined number of days.

Time Card

Initialization.

IN/OUT punches made on one PERFECT time recorder are unknown to other PERFECTS. Therefore, if you have more than one PERFECT, you must ensure that individual time cards can only be used in one of them. To do this, the user assigns a different range of numbered time cards to each time recorder.

Time cards come sequentially numbered in boxes of 1000. The feature “CARDS INITIALIZATION” . allows you to limit which time cards can be used on which time recorder. The programmable number range is from 000,001 to 999,999 but the number range you program must coincide with the numbers of your stock of time cards.

Important: Please note that the number range you program does not change the time card total capacity of the PERFECT'S memory.

Memory capacity: The time recorder can store up to 250 time card totals

(depending on the employee capacity of the unit).

The memory capacity is fixed and cannot be changed.

Important: When the time card total memory capacity limit is reached, and a new card is used, the time recorder automatically deletes the card with the oldest punch.

It does not reject the new card .

Card Management Options

Time cards can be deleted by means of all of the preceding methods, either individually or in combination with each other. Please find below some possible configurations.

Using the factory default settings

Your PERFECT was shipped from the factory with standard default settings designed for the least complicated applications. In many cases, these default settings will suffice and all you will need to do is plug in the power supply and start using the time recorder .

In this factory default mode, all time card numbers are enabled (000001 to

999999) and when the time card total memory capacity is exceeded, the

5-10 Operation Chapter

oldest time card totals are simply overwritten by the new time cards. The oldest saved card is the card with which the oldest bookings have been effected prior to the last bookings of the other existing cards.

Advantage: Quick commissioning and quick start of the recorder with no need for time card number maintenance .

Disadvantage: No control over time card use. Old time cards can still be used even though they are from a different pay period.

Please note:

When starting a new box of new cards, make sure the number sequence does not duplicate the numbers of your old cards.

Automatic card deletion by aging :

For this operating mode the function parameter CARD VALIDITY DURATION (see chapter "Getting Started") has to be active. By additionally indicating the card validity duration in days you can define when saved cards are deleted automatically by the recorder.

In this operating mode all cards with card numbers between 000001 and 999999 can be enabled, too. However, it is not possible to delete cards manually.

The number of days you would program to retain time cards is usually dependent on: a) Your pay period b) How many pay periods you want to keep time card totals in the time recorder c) How many employees are using the time recorder (including the active pay period). Remember that the time recorder can only maintain up to 250 time card totals in its memory (depending on its employee capacity).

Advantage:

Disadvantage:

The deletion of time cards from the time recorder’s memory is controlled and according to a fixed rule. The chances of the time recorder having to deal with duplicate numbered time cards is eliminated.

Historical time card total reports for time cards older than the programmed card validity duration are not possible.

Manual card deleting

For the manual deletion of time cards, the software feature “DELETING

CARDS” must be enabled.

To avoid exceeding the time recorder’s memory capacity, the user or a supervisor has to delete time cards manually from the recorder at the end of the pay period.

Advantage:

Disadvantage:

This operating mode serves best to guarantee the control of card management.

The memory capacity will never be exhausted and the user controls the exact number of cards saved in the time recorder’s memory.

Card deleting has to be carried out manually and is time consuming. Previous pay periods are not available for time card reports. This process is described in the following sections "Delete card with and without carryover".

Recommendation: This operating mode is suited for applications where a limited number of cards resp. only a limited range of card numbers is required.

Generally this is the case for applications which use several PERFECT recorders and alternating punching at different recorders shall not be allowed.

For this reason the "Card number limitation" (CARD

INITIALIZATION) is frequently programmed in combination with the function "manual card deleting"

(DELETING CARDS).

Please note: Realize card initialization immediately during commissioning.

Hint

A combination of the software features CARD VALIDITY

DURATION and DELETING CARDS is possible.

5-12 Operation Chapter

Deleting cards without Carryover
