INSTALLATION
|
| Q. 1:
|
How can I be sure that the CHIPDRIVE Time Recording Software and the PC
Time Clock software will function correctly together?
A: It's best to install both programs in the folder suggested by the
installer program. This ensures that both programs will work together automatically.
|
| Q. 2:
|
What if I want to install the programs in different folders?
A: You then need to manually establish a connection between the two programs.
From the Time Recording software, select File/Administration/Connect to PC Time Clock
software from the menu and choose the appropriate location.
|
| Q. 3:
|
I want all employees to be able to clock in and out at their own workstations
since they all have a CHIPDRIVE installed on their computers. Can I setup the time clock
software readers?
A: You then need to manually establish a connection between the two programs.
From the Time Recording software, select File/Administration/Connect to PC Time Clock
software from the menu and choose the appropriate location.
|
| Q. 4:
|
OK, this works but I don't want the entire contents of the main computer's C:\ to
be shared over the network and I don't want employees to be able to access the time recording
software. What do I do?
A:
|
On the main computer, install the PC Time Clock software in a separate folder from the
Time Recording software, for example "c:\pcclock". |
|
Establish the connection between the programs by selecting File/Administration/Connect
to PC Time Clock software from the menu and select c:\pcclock, then sub folder: clock"
and confirm. |
|
Assign this folder a drive letter on subsequent computers (map network drives), for
example, "T". |
|
On all computers, install the PC Time Clock software in the root folder "T:\". Now you
should be able to share just the c:\pcclock folder over the network. |
|
USING THE PC TIME CLOCK
|
| Q. 1:
|
How do I clock in and out using the PC Time Clock
A: Simply follow the instructions given to you on the screen. Insert your user card
into the CHIPDRIVE when prompted to do so. Your name and status of your hours will appear.
Complete the clocking by clicking OK and remove your card when clocking has been confirmed.
|
| Q. 2:
|
I'm supposed to be clocking out but the PC Time Clock says, "Clock In" when I insert
the card. How do I change this?
A: Although usually not necessary, change the clocking type by pressing the appropriate
button (Clock in, Clock out) on the PC Time Clock. Complete the clocking by pressing OK and remove
your card when clocking has been confirmed.
|

did not get any confirmation of where the file was stored. Where is it?

4-digit personal numbers, with 2-digits each for year and month followed by ".txt."
|

CHIPDRIVE MOBILE TIME RECORDING DEVICE
|
| Q. 1:
|
How do I set the date and time on the CHIPDRIVE Mobile Time Recording device?
A: From the Time Recording software select File/Administration/Time Recording Device - Set Clock.
Type the time at which you'll insert a user card into the Time Recording device. Insert an unused card into
the CHIPDRIVE on the PC and wait until the CHIPDRIVE goes out. Insert the user card into the time recording
device at exactly the time you specified.
|
| Q. 2:
|
Is there anything special I have to do to clock in or out using the Time Recording device?
A: No. It's the same as using the CHIPDRIVE on a PC, with the PC Time Clock software, just insert
your card and check that the display shows the correct clocking information. If it is correct, simply remove
your card. If it is incorrect, just re-insert your card again and it should be correct.
