PIX-21 Operation Manual 

Amano Cincinnati, Inc.

 

 Program Modes 

The PIX-21 has two programming modes, 

Normal

 and 

Quick

. Either mode can 

be accessed by simply entering a specific 4-digit code.  

The Quick Program Mod allows the user to change the following features: date, 
time, daylight saving time start/end dates, and print style. To enter the Quick 
Program Mode use the appropriate code listed in Chart 1, which correlates to the 
print style of your choice. 

In the Normal Program Mode, the user can change the following features: Date, 
Time, Daylight saving time begin/end dates, print style, language, print direction, 
auto print, and leading zeros. Addionally, there is a diagnostic menu to test the 
LCD segments, reset the number of punches, and clear memory. To enter the 
Normal programming mode, use the code “8088” and follow the instructions to 
program all the items. Refer to page 9 to enter the Normal mode code. 

For a quick setup of a particular item in the PIX-21, use the alternate code, which 
correlates to the print style of choice. (See Chart 1 on page 5.) The “Quick” mode 
shortens the print style setup. Refer to page 6 to enter the Quick Program mode. 

 

Quick Program Mode 

 

1.  Plug In the Power Cord and Make a Test Print 

Insert a piece of paper or time card into the PIX-21. The clock automatically 
will print a 4-digit YEAR, MONTH, DATE, and TIME with AM or PM. 

Note: 

The PIX-21 will automatically adjust for Daylight Saving Time. If these 

conditions are unsatisfactory, you must change the program settings. 

 

2.  The Reset Button 

Press the RESET button to exit the programming mode at any time and 
return to the time display. 

 

 

 

The RESET Button (which is 
long) is located in the right 
lower corner on the bottom of 
the clock.

 

 

Please Note: 

You do not need the key to set the time or to program the clock!! 
However, you do need the key to change the ribbon, or mount the clock. 

If you have any questions, please call 1-800-253-9836.
