1. INTRODUCTION This manual will help you to setup the time attendance devices Fröbergs RFID and Fröbergs Fingerprint, including the TimeMoto software. It will guide you through the basic functions of the system. The system has many advanced functions which will not be guided in this quick start manual. More detailed instructions for these functions can be found in the full manual, which can be downloaded at www.frobergs.se/tm If you are going to use the software as personnel attendance tracking system...

3. INSTALLING THE PC-SOFTWARE The PC-software is supposed to be installed on one client computer on the same network as the terminal. Note that the software is a one PC-software and is not for server installation. 1. Download the PC-software setup file from www.frobergs.se/tm 2.

• Enter the IP-address of the terminal, from previous step. • Click the button “This computer” and the software will automaticly enter your PC’s name. • Click “OK”. The device should now be added and shown as connected, in the column “Active”. If the connection still doesn’t work, you might need to check that your computer is connected to the same network and that they are on the same subnet.

5. BASIC SETTINGS OF THE SOFTWARE Backup Set the software to take automatic backups. Go to File/Preferences. Change “Automatic backup file” to “Yes” and choose “Backup file location”. Remember to press “Save” in the top of the window to save your setting. Import country specific holidays *only available in TM+ To import country specific holidays, go to the menu “Edit”...
6. ADD USERS This is how you add a user. 1. In the software go to the menu “Edit” and choose “User”. 2. Click “Add” (+) in the top right corner. (See image above). An editable window appear in the bottom of the screen. (Notice that a “User ID” is automatically created.

logs but can see the attendance panel. They have no access to make any changes. • Password – press the button “Change password”. A popup window opens and you can enter a password, which can be used to check in/out in the terminal, but is also the password that is used to login into the PC-software.
Page 14
5. Change tab to “Identification”, if you plan to use RFID-cards/tags. In the field “RFID”, you enter the 7-digit number of the RFID-card/tag this user is going to use. If no RFID number is found on the RFID-card/tag, you can enroll RFID, by scanning them in the terminal.
Page 15
7. SYNCHRONIZE USERS FROM THE PC-SOFTWARE TO THE TERMINAL To transfer users or changes to users, between the PC-software and the terminal, synchronization must be performed. Notice! When you add a fingerprint/RFID/password to a user on the terminal, synchronization also must performed. When the terminal and the PC-software is synchronized correctly, attendance logs from the terminal will transfer automatically to the pc software.
Page 16
3. A popup window will appear. “Synchronize users” is open. In this example picture above, some users were created in the PC-software and need to be transferred to the terminal. In the window “PC>TM” (1) is clicked to choose the direction and then “Commit”...
Enrolling Fingerprints 1. On the terminal, press the “MENU” button. If you have created a user with the privilege of “Supervisor” and synchronized this user to the terminal, you will have to “Identify”, to gain access to the menu. If no “Supervisor” exists in the terminal, you will gain access to the menu directly.
Page 18
8. When the desired fingerprints have been enrolled, you must synchronize the user data with the PC-software again. Because the fingerprints were added to the user on the terminal, you must synchronize in the direction “TM>PC”. It’s very important to choose the correct direction.

9. WORK SCHEDULES You can create work schedules and assign them to a user or a department. The software will then compare the actual attendance data with the user’s specified schedule. The software can also be used without a schedule, if only the user’s attended time is of interest.
Page 20
3. The work schedule is now created and now we need to define start, break and end times. Click the blue button “Add” and select “Time In/Out”. 4. Select the days that have the same start and end time. Input the start, end and if there is a rounding to be applied.
Page 21
5. Now we’ll define the schedule for Fridays. Click the blue button “Add” again and choose another “Time In/Out”. In this example the personnel have a shorter schedule for Friday. 07:00-14:30. 6. Now we’ll add the automatically logged lunch breaks. This means that a check in and a check out, is automatically input at the specified times, if a user with the schedule has checked in that day, before this scheduled break.

10. REGISTERING ABSENCE Registering a full day absence when using work schedules. If you’re using work schedules or planned schedules, for your users, it’s easy to adjust absence reasons. For example, absence due to illness or vacation. 1. Go to “Edit” in the main menu and select “Clock Grid”. 2.
Page 23
Registering a part day absence when using work schedules. 1. Go to “Edit” in the main menu and select “Clock”. 2. Double click the check out, that needs to be adjusted. 3. In the window, that appear, simply adjust the “Project” work code with the absence reason.

Registering absence when not using work schedules. When no schedules are used, it’s more difficult to register absence, but it can be done following these procedures. 1. Go to “Edit” in the main menu and select “Clock”. 2. Click “Add” (+) button, or right click in the window and select “Add Clocktime”. 3.

11. CORRECTING INCORRECT ATTENDANCE LOGS For the software to be able to calculate the correct time of attendance, the system needs to have values for both “IN” (Check in) and “OUT” (Check out). The minimum is one “Check in” and one “Check out”, per day. Notice! If the user has a schedule, the software can calculate the day with only one check in, but having a real check out, is much more beneficial, as the true time a user has attended can be calculated.
Page 26
Correcting a missing clocking In this example, the user has forgot to “Check in” and the start of the shift. In the example above, there is a “Check in”, missing 21/12 (1). Because there is no “Check in” for that day, the software marks all the clocking’s that day in red, so it’s easier for the administrator to see that there is a problem with the clocking sequence that day.
Page 27
Double clocking The system has a built in function, to ignore clocking’s that happen to close to each other, but if this function is not turned on or if the user has clocked out twice in a row, there will be red marked clocking’s to correct as well.
Page 28
Incorrect IN/OUT In this example, the user has forgotten to check out the previous day and was accidently checked out, when he arrived at work. This usually happens, because the terminal remembers what type of clocking a user has done lastly. To fix this, you need to add the “Check out”...

12. PROJECT With the system it’s also possible to keep track of how much time has been spent on certain projects. Time spent on projects will appear in the “Project” report. Adding new projects This is how you add a new project: 1.
Page 30
Synchronize projects to the terminal When you want to synchronize projects with the terminal, follow these steps: 1. Go to “Edit” in the main menu and select “Device”. Select your device by clicking on it in the list. The row with the device, will show in a blue color. 2.
Project report Time spent on projects, can be found in the PC-software “Project report”. This is found in the main menu under “Report” and “Project”. 13. REPORTS In the main menu, you can find “Report”, which includes multiple different report types. •...

14. MORE FUNCTIONS AND INSTRUCTIONS The system has a few more functions not described in this manual. • Payment class rules • Scheduling using the “Planning” grid for users with non-fixed schedules For more information about these functions, or more detailed instructions about functions found in this manual, we ask you to instead see the full manual.
