Fingerprint scan error due to new clocks

Got 2 new xenios to replace EC clocks.

Called customer. If they want to keep old clocks only the PIN data works among all clocks.

Told Kevin to delete old EC prints from the database

Refresh customer prints on the line: Users>Clocking permissions, select clocks, click trashcan, click save, click arrow to reassign clocks, click save.

Have user test fingerprint scan

Emptied user enrollment and re-assigned users for ALL users to globally apply the fix.

Firewall Issues

  1. Check host PC settings on the clock (must match the ones we provide)
  2. Make an exception on the firewall for the port numbers and destination IP addresses so the clock can connect to the network
  3. Could be a conflict of IP address (this is for IT personnel or smart cookies only)
    1. Reserve IP’s in your network
    2. Assign 1 to each clock
    3. Forget the network on the clock
    4. Set DHCP to static
    5. Enter static IP

Schedules Module

  • physically restrict the punch-in time
  • pay only for shift time as an option
  • also manually approve time outside of the shift
  • additional rule: doesn’t let them clock in until a certain time

Ec clock fingerprint scanner light off

(Sometimes motion detector goes bad, this fix keeps the scanner always on and ready to read fingerprints)

If admin locked – Find an admin in the software with a pin number

Provide customer with empl ID number followed by pin number to access clock

  • press menu, 0, enter id #, enter pin #, this should unlock the clock

*this will keep the light permanently on

Have customer restart the clock

Workaround for changing previous timecard punches
