Set Time of Slave Clocks (optional)
Hint
The following procedure is only performed when slave clocks are
connected to the time recorder. The default setting from the
factory is to disable this option, therefore this routine should not
be done until after the initial start-up of the time recorder.
For further details please contact your local dealer where you
have purchased the time recorder or e-mail us at:

"Slave clocks“ are clocks whose time is controlled by a "master clock“. These clocks
can be other time recorders or wall clocks mounted in common work areas such as
lunch rooms and offices. Configuring a master / slave clock system benefits users by
establishing one "official“ workplace time and by providing automatic resetting of
connected time devices after power failures or after Daylight Savings Time changes.
A master / slave clock system of synchronized workplace time has the following
pre-requisites:
•
The "Master Clock“ hardware and software options have been installed in the
PERFECT time recorder.
•
The "Slave Clock“ hardware and software options have been installed in those
time recorders designated as slave clocks (only possible with PERFECT 2040).
•
A 12“ diameter, 12 volt ISGUS system wall clock has been installed in those
locations (locker rooms, offices etc.) designated to be slave clocks.
•
All slave clock locations have been wired and connected back to this time
recorder’s (the master clock) location with two #14 AWG copper conductors.
•
All installation work must be performed and verified by qualified staff.
Proceed as follows:
1. Ensure that the hardware and installation prerequisites previously listed
have been met.
2. Check or set time and date for this recorder.
3. Carry out the complete programming routine of the time recorder.
