Prepare and Plan
TimeIPS installations consist of one "master" system and, optionally, one or more
additional "client" systems. Initial configuration and periodic administration require
a computer with a network connection and a web browser. Optional client systems
can be connected on a LAN (Local Area Network) or at remote locations connected
on a WAN (Wide Area Network) via secure VPN (Virtual Private Network). These
stations can be located at any door or entrance to your facility, or at any location
that is convenient for your employees to clock in and out. If you only have one
TimeIPS station in your business, this will be the “master” station and will be used
by employees to clock-in and clock-out.
We recommend a TimeIPS station at each employee entrance to your facility and/or
in your central break-room. Each station will require an AC power outlet and a
connection to your local area network. The master station can be connected to any
location on your network (wall plate jack, switch or hub).
Please examine the diagram on the next page to assist in planning your TimeIPS
installation. Most installations will have the first station at the main employee
entrance. Additional client stations can be added at any time to other entrances or
any location within your business.
