    Time Recorder Installation Basically the PERFECT recorder is designed for table operation. No further settings are required for this type of application. Please see the instructions in the following section ”Installation for table operation”. If you have to connect additional functions such as signal operation, or master and slave clock operation, refer to the end of section "Wall mounting".

  • Page 22: Wall Mounting

    Select an easily accessible and vibration-free place of installation. The recorder may only be placed on a stable, slip-resistant surface. For the stability of the time recorder use the rubber feet included in the set of accessories. For this purpose clip them on by following the arrow-head indications. Also use the 3 cover caps for the metal back plate in order to seal the cable leadings.

When time values are entered for the first time respectively after a reset, all values have to be entered for each weekday before the menu can be left.

  • Page 76: Graphic Recorder

    Graphic Recorder As a graphical card is not separated in IN- and OUT-clocking columns, but the days of a period are arranged horizontally, only one column change per day has to be executed. Only one column change timing per weekday has to be defined. If a time value differing from 00: .h is programmed, e.g.

  • Page 77: Graphic Recorder With Leaping Imprint

    If another time value than 00: h, e.g. 1: h, is programmed the clocking is printed in the line of the previous day. So shifts, overlapping the day-end can be printed in the same line. The programming is identical with the proceeding "Column change timing - standard recorder with one card lift per day".

  • Page 80 Hint Two identical time values for one weekday (e.g. 17:00h for black and red imprint) cannot be programmed, that means that "E" or "S" can not be pressed to switch to the next item . If no ribbon colour change is programmed, all clockings will be printed in black as this colour is pre-programmed for the printer ex factory.

External signal devices, e.g. a horn for the organisation of breaks or the plant illumination can be switched on and off at defined times by the programming of signal circuit. Contrary to the check of individuals the signal circuit works person-independent, that means the release of the signal completely takes place according to defined time intervals.

    Graphic Recorder There is no distinction between automatic and manual column selection if a graphic recorder is used. The column change is controlled by a time-program and is, in general, executed once a day. There is no special separation between IN- and OUT-clockings and extra time if graphical cards are used.

    Insert card into card funnel. Push card slightly down until clocking is released. Remove card from recorder. Standby Operation In order to maintain the normal operation during power failure the time recorder must be provided with a standby battery pack for the printer head. With this option, the time recorder will print up to 300 registrations over a power outage period of 24 hours.

  • Page 116: Adjustment Routine

    Adjustment Routine The position of the clocking on the time card is defined when programming the card lift and column change. But it may happen that the clocking is not printed exactly in the right position due to manufacturing tolerance and especially card tolerances. With this routine the position of the clocking on the time card can be adjusted in vertical and horizontal direction.

    Shift clocking downwards with "E" (-). The distance between bottom line and clocking is decreased. Step width: 0,1 mm. Example: Adjustment value 58 = clocking is shifted 0,8 mm upwards. Insert time card and execute a sample clocking. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until clocking is printed in correct position.
