GETTING THE MOST OUT OF YOUR MX-300
Calculate Work Hours
The MX-300 makes it possible to calculate work hours for regular employees and hourly workers. There
are two types of hourly work totaling methods available:
Fixed Shift
and
Open Shift
. The MX-300 also
enables you to select between two combined mode options:
Regular Employees & Hourly Workers
with Fixed Shift
or
Regular Employees & Hourly Workers with Open Shift
. (It is also possible to
select
Only Regular Employees
and
Only Hourly Workers
.)
(The MX-300 can handle up to 50 employees (including both regular employees and hourly workers.)
See "How to Change the Calculation Mode"

Calculating Work Hours for Regular Employees
Time for regular employees can be totaled separately from hourly worker by registering the
corresponding time cards as Regular Employee Time Cards.
(See "Regular Employee Time Card Registration"
Ö
page 53)
You can configure the Shift Beginning Time and Shift End Time to establish the shift schedule and then
add Overtime Beginning Time, Midnight Shifts and Fixed Breaks (up to four hours a day).
If an employee clocks in after the configured Shift Beginning Time, they will be treated as having
arrived late (Late-Arrival) and the corresponding mark will be added to their time card ("L"). Likewise,
if an employee clocks out before the configured Shift End Time, they will be treated as having left early
(Early-Leave) and the corresponding mark will be added to their time card ("E").
The daily total prints the number of overtime hours worked. The monthly total prints the accumulated
number of hours and days (count) individually for Late-Arrivals and Early-Leaves,
Out-for-Personal-Errand, overtime and midnight shifts (if configured). (

Calculating Work Hours for Hourly Workers with Fixed Shift
Hourly Workers with Fixed Shift mode is a convenient calculation mode designed to total differing
wages based on the configured shift schedules.
Hourly worker shifts can be configured in segments of up to four hours a day. The daily total prints the
number of hours worked that day. The monthly total can print the number of hours work per shift. (

printed.

During weekdays, any punches
made between the Day Change
Time and the Shift Beginning
Time are calculated from the set
Shift Beginning Time. (e.g.; If
you clock in at 7:30, it is
calculated as if you clocked at
8:30.)
The time between the Shift End
Time and the Overtime
Beginning Time is treated as a
break time zone.
