Startup

AFR-200 Startup AMANO Screen (Power On)

Once the terminal is wall mounted and the communication connections have been made, 
connect the terminal to AC power and proceed on to setup and enroll users.

After the unit is plugged into an AC power outlet, press the power button on the left side to 
turn on the unit.

To start-up, perform the following: 

Ensure the AC Power Adapter is connected to the AFR-

200 terminal and plugged into an outlet. The AFR-200 terminal will display the splash screen, 
perform a diagnostic check, and then display the AMANO screen.

Note: The time and date can be set with the terminal keypad, or downloaded to the terminal 
from the host PC utilizing Time Guardian software. The information such as date, time, 
daylight saving time (DST), face scan templates, and hours worked sent from Time Guardian 
software will have precedence over existing similar information. That is to say Time Guardian 
software will act as the master/source.

Upon power up, the Green LED indicator will blink once every second to signify the terminal 
is operating properly.

All normal time and attendance functions (validation for punch in/out) must be performed from 
the AMANO screen.

Normal Punch IN/OUT Display

The system is ready to use after the AFR-200 terminal and the host PC with Time 
Guardian software are connected and setup. Upon user recognition at the terminal, the 
terminal will first briefly display his/her photo.

If View Hours is enabled: The terminal will display the "As of" date followed by the current 
pay period hours worked for the user that just punched.

Note: The current pay period information is transferred from Time Guardian to the terminal 
during a download and can be retained at the terminal for up to 14 days between 
downloads.
