  • Page 4: Introduction

    INTRODUCTION The Accu-Time Series 5600 is a true 'C' download programmable intelligent Time and Data Collection Terminal. The Series 5600 offers a large, capacitor backed, user memory base of up to 768K and is equipped with two full duplex RS232 Auxiliary ports and provisions for laser inputting. An additional DI/DO module with 6 Form 'C' relays transforms the Series 5600 into an Industrial Machinery Controller.

  • Page 5: Features

    FEATURES • Single or multi-clock environments on a variety of host platforms with application programs integrating the ATS DATA TRAKER family of modules. • 128K Byte capacitor backed memory base, expandable to 768K • Optional 64K Flash memory • TCP/IP Ethernet 10-base-T compatible (802.3) •...

  • Page 6: Specifications

    128K Byte Expandable to 768K Byte of capacitor backed memory (3000 or greater employee base – program dependent) 64K Flash memory Programming: ATS DATA TRAKER modules, “C” programming language or third party custom application packages. Interface: TCP/IP Ethernet 10-base-T (802.3)

  • Page 7: Installation

    Series 5600.  The ATS terminal is designed to operate indoors. Exposure to outdoor elements such as rain or snow will not only void the manufacturer warranty, but may cause damage to the device. The terminal should be mounted on a vibration free area.
  • Page 8 For RS232 applications, ATS recommends using a modular telephone-type data cable. This eight- (8) conductor shielded flat cable has RJ-45 modular plugs on each end. For example, the fifty (50) foot ATS cable, part number 63-2003-02, may run along side base-moldings, walls, overheads, or in hostile environments through conduit tubing.
  • Page 9 For RS485 communication applications, ATS recommends using a twisted pair, data transmission trunk cable that adheres to the following specifications: Five conductor shielded 24-gage wire with a drain. The impedance of the cable should be 100 Ohms. The nominal capacitance between conductors should be 12.5 pico-farads per foot.
  • Page 10  For Ethernet communication applications, ATS recommends using a CATEGORY 5 unshielded twisted pair high- speed data transmission cable. One end of the 568B RJ45 terminated cable is plugged into the Series 5600 Ethernet port, while the other end is plugged into the network hub.
  • Page 11 The Series 5600 will power-up and display the on-line default message. (Refer to the ATS SETUP MODE section of this manual for terminal communication setup parameters) Attach the remaining end of the data cable into the host computer port.

    2) Locate the Test/Use switch on the I/O board assembly. 3) Slide the switch into the TEST position. The Series 5600 will display “ATS TEST MODE”. 4) By pressing the CLEAR key, the user can step through the selections. (*NOTE* Test mode may be exited at any time by placing the Test/Use switch back to the USE position and pressing the CLEAR key).
  • Page 13 ATS TEST MODE checks the functionality of the terminal Keypad, Memory, Real Time Clock, Bar Code or Magnetic Slot reader and Bar Code Wand circuitry. To enter the TEST MODE, press the ENTER key. The message “ATS TEST MODE” appears on the top line of the display. The 2 line of the display indicates the two program (EPROM) numbers.
  • Page 14 To change the terminal application type: Press the CLEAR key to increment the type from A to J. When the desired type is displayed, press the ENTER key to store the value and advance to the ATS NETWORK TEST. MANU5600-01(04)
  • Page 15 ATS NETWORK TEST ATS NETWORK TEST is a two-part test. The first allows the network wiring between the terminal and the host to be checked for open connections or wiring errors. This test requires that the ATS RS232 Communication Adapter which is plugged into the host, be unplugged and pins 2 &...
  • Page 16 ATS AUX PORT TEST The ATS AUX PORT TEST will automatically fail because the required loop back jumpers are not installed. If this test should need to be performed, contact factory for pin-out information. To exit the Test Mode, place the Test/Use switch in the Use position and press the CLEAR key. The terminal will execute its power up sequence.

  • Page 17: Ethernet Testing And Setup

    With the “TEST MODE” message in the terminal display, press the CLEAR key five (5) times. The message “ATS RESTART MODE” appears on the top line of the display. Press the ENTER key three (3) times to clear all memory prior to testing the ETHERNET circuit. (Omitting this step greatly increases the chances of unreliable test results in the ETHERNET circuit).
  • Page 18 This is the system Router used for directing Internet traffic among a variety of Hosts. (See your network administrator for assignment.) Enter the numeric Router or Gateway address in blocks of three followed by the ENTER key. The following message allows an enablement of the Broadcast Receive command. If this function is disabled, the terminal will ignore all broadcast packets.
  • Page 19 The Series 5600 terminal, when used with the standard Time and Attendance "C" application, can be downloaded with employee names, badge numbers, schedules, etc. These download commands and others are explained in the ATS DATA TRAKER command set manual. For further information refer to this manual.

  • Page 20: Maintenance

    MAINTENANCE The Series 5600 is a maintenance-free data collection device. The only required procedure is periodic cleaning of the badge reader. To clean the badge reader, swipe a pre-moistened (with Isopropyl alcohol) cleaning card through the reader several times. Low usage readers should be cleaned monthly. High usage readers should be cleaned weekly. MANU5600-01(04)

  • Page 21: Troubleshooting Guide

    TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Problem: Terminal does not power up and none of the status LEDs are lit. Possible cause: No DC power applied Solution: Ensure primary side of DC power pack assembly is plugged into a live AC outlet. Ensure secondary side of DC power pack assembly is plugged into the Time and Data Collection Terminal (DCT).
  • Page 22 Possible cause: Badge is being swiped in the wrong direction. Solution: Ensure media faces to the right (away from the keypad). Possible cause: Badge reader needs cleaning. Solution: Swipe a pre-moistened (isopropyl alcohol) cleaning card through the reader several times. Possible cause: Badge number does not exist in validation file.

  • Page 23: Ethernet Troubleshooting Guide

    ETHERNET TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE POWER RELATED Problem: The terminal display is blank (no characters or backlight). Possible cause: The primary of the power pack assembly is not plugged into an AC-wall outlet. Solution: Check the outlet, both ends of the power pack, and if it is a 12VDC power pack. Solution: If all else fails, replace the power pack.
  • Page 24 Possible cause: Cables not plugged in or host application software not operational. Solution: Insure that all connections are made and that the host software application is functional. If possible, take a known working terminal, re-address it for this particular node and determine if the problem is related to the terminal, installation or host.
  • Page 25 This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
