TIMETRAX PRO
PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY
Introduction
TimeTrax Modem Polling is a powerful tool that allows users to download
punch records from multiple TimeTrax Recorders sited at remote locations.
Transmission of data is done via analog phone lines and internal and/or external
modems. Pyramid recommends that you have a dedicated analog phone line for
each TimeTrax terminal for use by the Host Modem to dial in and retrieve
punches from the remote terminal locations.
Included in your shipment (P/N FTPOL), you should have received
5050-external modem (P/N 5050), Adapter RJ45F to DB9F (P/N 41400) and
Black Cable (P/N 41539) to connect to your Host PC. To unlock the Modem
Polling Feature in your software, see Activating the Modem Polling Feature
later in this manual.
Installing the Host Modem (See diagram on page 48)
Connect the TimeTrax Recorder to the PC
Option 1: PC has an available Serial 9-pin (COM) Port: Connect the white 50'
RJ45 cable to the RJ45/DB9 adapter. This will then connect to the
back of your PC.
Option 2: PC only has a USB port. Connect the white 50' RJ45 cable to the
RJ45/DB9 adapter and then connect the RS232/USB adapter to the
back of your PC.
Important Note: Once you connect the 5050 Modem to your PC, it becomes a
Host Modem. The Modem Polling Software shuts off the ability of the modem
to receive any phone calls. It can never perform the function of a Receiver
Modem without a manual reset. For more information on Resetting Receiver
Modem, see TROUBLESHOOTING at the end of these instructions.
Connect the 5050-Modem to the PC
Plug the 9-pin female connector end of the RJ-45 to DB9 connector into the seri-
al port on the back of the PC. Plug the RJ45 black cable into the DB-9 to RJ-45
connector and the other end of the RJ-45 into the Time Clock port on the
modem. Plug the RJ11 phone cable into the port on the back of the modem
marked Phone Line and plug the other end into a phone outlet. Plug the sup-
plied modem power transformer into a wall outlet or surge protector and the
cable from the transformer into the connector labeled Power on the modem.
