Failure to observe the following might case the MRX-30 to malfunction:
・
Never attempt to use bent cards (so as to prevent the card from getting
jammed in the MRX-30).
・
Never attempt to force a card into or out of the MX-300.

Employee Operations
This section provides instructions regarding how employees are to operate the MX-300.
Clocking In and Out in Normal Mode
During the normal mode of operations, the MX-300 will automatically position the time card to the proper
print zone based on the number of punches already made on a given employee's time card. This means that
employees need not fumble with any of the operation buttons but only insert their time card into the card
slot to clock in and clock out. (Buttons
②
and
⑤
will not light up.)
The employee inserts their time card.
The time card is automatically fed in,
positioned to the proper print zone, and
then punched with the corresponding
time.
* If either button
②
,
③
,
④
or
⑤
light up and then the employee inserts the time card, the punch will occur
at the corresponding column. (For example, if the first punch is made in the IN column (the column to the
furthest left) and then later on that day the employee pushes button
⑤
for the second punch, the
corresponding punch will be made directly right of the first punch.)
The Auto-Column-Shifting function is what enables the MX-300 to determine the proper time zone to punch in
throughout the day as the employee clocks in and out. For example, when this function is enabled, the MX-300
knows to treat the first punch of the first day
*
as an IN punch and the second punch as an OUT punch and move
to the corresponding print zone for punching the respective times. (Or, in the case of three or more punches in the
same day, the second punch is treated as GO-OUT, the third punch as BACK and the fourth punch as OUT).
Therefore, if an employee forgets to punch their time card when they should, the Auto-Column-Shifting function
will likely result in later punches getting punched in the wrong column.
* For purposes of using the MX-300, the term "day" is generally defined as the time period starting from the
configured Day Change Time to one minute before the corresponding Day Change Time threshold on the next
day (23 hours and 59 minutes later)).
When an employee forgets to punch their card for the second punch, resulting in only the first and third punch
being punched, a calculation error will result preventing the daily total from being calculated for that day. If you
would like to correct such a mistake, press the button that corresponds to the column you wish to have punched,
wait for the button to light up, and then insert the corresponding time card. If you fail to insert the card within 10
seconds after pressing the button, the corresponding LED will go off. Also, if you press the button again while the
corresponding LED is on, it will go off and the operation will be disabled.

Clocking Out for a Personal Errand>
When a regular employee presses button
③
during normal weekday hours, waits for the
button to light up and then inserts their time card (that is registered as a regular employee
time card), an "O" will be added next to the corresponding time. If a regular employee
attempts the same operation during overtime or other exceptional time zone, an "O" will not
be added (only the time will be punched).
・
If you insert the wrong side of the time card, "E-01" will appear on the display, a
two-tone beep will be sounded and the time card will not be printed.
