Using The Tr510E - Promag TR510E Manual

2. Using the TR510E

Clocking in and out
To register an event (IN or OUT), push the appropriate button and read your
ID-card. For the TR510ER (RFID version), the card is read by bringing it close
to the reader (< 8 cm). For the TR510EM, TR510EB, and TR510EF (Magnetic,
Visible Barcode and IR Barcode respectively), the card is read by swiping it in
either direction along the reader slot. For the machine orientation shown on
figure of page 3, magnetic (barcode) stripe of the ID-card must face downwards.
Note 1: the TR510E can be programmed to fix event selection to IN or OUT
only- in this case event selection won't work!
Note 2: for automatically activation at IN or OUT event, the TR510E provides
a pre-scheduled event table for user to arrange time and event for activation IN
or OUT in a scheduled time; in this mode, user can directly register ID-card in a
scheduled event, or register an event by manually push the appropriate button;
in this way, TR510E will go back to scheduled event (IN or OUT) when finish the
card reading. If user does not has his ID-card to be read after press a button,
TR510E will automatically go back to scheduled event after 5 seconds time out.
The last four digits of the ID-card's ID-code are displayed on the LED when
the ID-card is read. "Err" is displayed and meanwhile beeps three times in case
of read error:
Memory full status
When the database memory is full, new records cannot be added. Reading
an ID-card will produce a long beep and a "FULL" message:
Error conditions
The TR510E can detect and notify you of a number of different error
conditions. Please refer to Appendix A for complete list of all possible errors.
Normal operation of the TR510E is suspended upon encountering an error
condition other than "card read error". New records cannot be added to the
database in this situation. Communications with the TR510E from the PC side
is still possible, however. This gives you an opportunity to access the TR510E
online and attempt to correct the problem.
