Supervisor menu on the time clock, in conjunction with a
communications program running on the host PC that is part of the
InTagral™ Plus system. You determine the particular conditions of
your setup, such as card types, authorized employee users, and the
way that the time clock communicates with other devices for
processing time and attendance data.

IGHLIGHTS AND
B
ENEFITS
InTagral™ Plus is a fully integrated, digital time and attendance clock system
that uses advanced technology to provide medium to large-size
organizations with low cost, trouble-free employee attendance monitoring.
Employees can update InTagral™ Plus by means of RF (radio frequency)
based identification tags, as well as conventional magnetic strip and bar code
employee ID tags.
InTagral™ Plus offers a full range of integrated management features such
as project management, local and remote messaging and access control.
Data collected by InTagral™ Plus is pre-formatted for automated data
transfer to corporate departments such as human resource management and
payroll. In addition, InTagral™ Plus provides further critical office control
functions such as physical office access control and activation of alarm
systems.
The time clock is powered by a conventional electrical wall outlet power
source. A backup battery allows the time clock to operate for up to 4 hours
in the event of power outage. In addition, an internally mounted lithium
battery that is independent of the power source protects internal digital data
for an extended period of time.

Display Screen The Display Screen displays alphanumeric information for
standard Employees and the Time Clock Supervisor. The Display
Screen can display up to 8 rows of text, with a maximum of 21
alphanumeric characters per row. The display is backlit so that
it can be viewed clearly under most lighting conditions.
Keypad The keypad consists of 12 function keys. Keys 1 through 9
allow you to enter numeric information.
The remaining two keys, CLR and ENT, are at the bottom of
the keypad. The CLR key returns you to the main time clock
screen. [ENT] is for confirming an item selected by the user
from a menu of options, and for returning an affirmative (YES)
answer to a prompting question presented by the time clock.
Function and
Na igation Keys
Eight keys at the top of InTagral™ Plus allow you to enter
special functions and navigate commands in the menus that
appear on the Display Screen.
•The IN key is for changing the clock’s current
status to Entry time.
•The OUT key is for changing the clock’s current
status to Exit time.
•The F1 key displays a menu of additional options
and/or functions.
•The F2 key (if selected) displays a list of the
active projects.
The arrow keys ( ) are for screen navigation. The up
and down arrows are for scrolling up and down a list. The right
and left arrows take the cursor to the beginning or end of the
list respectively.
LED Indicators There are three LED indicators on the face of the time clock.
•The IN key LED indicator flashes to show that
the time clock currently in IN mode.
•The O T key LED indicator flashes to show that
the time clock currently in O T mode.
The BATT LED flashes when the backup battery is low.

Card Reader The Card Reader detects and reads employee ID information
from employee ID cards.
For magnetic and bar code cards, employees must slide their ID
card through the slot in the Card Reader with the magnetic strip
facing down as shown on the Card Reader.
If your organization uses RF (Proximity) employee cards,
employees need only place their cards in front of the Card
Reader a few centimeters away from the surface of the time
clock.
Fingerprint Reader An optional Fingerprint Reader adds another level of security for
screening individuals attempting to gain access to an
organization's premises.
Supervisors are responsible for initially entering an Employee's
fingerprint into the time clock's memory. As part of the
recording process, an Employee places either the thumb or
index finger facing upward over the Fingerprint Reader area on
the time clock.
To use the fingerprint identification feature, an Employee first
slides his or her employee ID card through the Card Reader.
When the time clock indicates, the employee must place the
same index finger originally used to record the record over the
Fingerprint Reader. InTagral™ Plus reads the employee's
fingerprint information and compares it with the image stored in
the time clock's memory.
Only if the Employee's fingerprint matches that stored in
InTagral™ Plus will the Employee card be verified. In the case
of the optional door control function the door will then be
opened.
Audio Speaker Sounds a single-toned signal to indicate that operations have
been carried out. In the event of an error, the time clock
sounds a multi-toned signal.

OFTWARE
Micronet Ltd. has two main software applications that support the InTagral™
Plus Time Clock. They are described in the following paragraphs.
1.4.1. Communications Software – The
ClockComm™ Application
InTagral™ Plus comes with ClockComm™, a sophisticated time and
attendance clock communications application that enables InTagral™ Plus to
communicate with other devices in a variety of ways. InTagral™ Plus can be
integrated with PCs for purposes of management and control in the following
ways:
•Direct Connection from the Time Clock to the Host PC
•Standard Modem or Internal Modem (GPRS)
•RS485-based Network
•TCP/IP (Internet)
The ClockComm application is described in detail in the "ClockComm
Communications Module User guide", included in the InTagral™ Plus
package.
In order to perform configuration and monitoring of the time clock, you
make use of a Host Computer connected to the time clock by one of the
clock's communication options.
Installing the communications module software to the Host Computer and
defining and configuring communications options are described in detail the
"ClockComm Communications Module User guide."

1.4.2. Data Management Software - The OnTime
Pro™ Application
OnTime Pro™ is an optional software package developed by Micronet Ltd.
that runs on a standard Personal Computer. OnTime Pro works with the time
clock to provide a full range of professional attendance monitoring services,
using the time and attendance data recorded by InTagral™ Plus. Examples of
OnTime Pro's features are:
•Three Levels for Handling Employee Overtime
•Flexible Rounding Rules
•Automatic Crediting or Debiting of Break Time
With OnTime Pro, you can export attendance data processed according to
user-defined rules to external Payroll applications.
For a full explanation of how to install, configure and operate OnTime Pro
refer to the "OnTime Pro Time and Attendance Application User
guide."
