Swiping a Badge
When preparing to swipe a badge, be sure that the
barcode is facing toward the indicator light. Insert
the badge starting at the top of the reader slot and
swipe completely through it, exiting the other side.
If swiped correctly, the reader will beep and the
light will turn green to indicate success. If the light
is red, the scan was not successful. If you get
nothing, you may have the badge backward. Turn
the badge so that the barcode is facing the indicator
light and try again.
If the clock-in is successful, an audible tone will be heard for “In” or
“Out” and the LCD display will indicate the current date and time,
employee name and the time in or out.
