Chapter 6: Maintenance

To prevent damage to the Auto-Sync Time Clock, it is recommended to use only paper type media. Special care should be taken to avoid inserting paper with staples, paper clips, or other fastening devices directly under the print frame as damage can occur. Care should also be taken when inserting and removing paper from the clock. Upon inserting, make sure the paper does not bend or crumple, because it may jam the machine. Before attempting to remove the paper you should wait until the unit has completed its print cycle. The clock secures the paper by clamping down on it, so if you attempt to remove the paper too soon it may tear inside the machine. It is recommended to periodically clean the inside of the machine. This is accomplished by using a can of pressurized air to blow out paper dust. A good time to perform this preventative maintenance is when you are changing the print ribbon cartridge.

6.Auto-Sync Time Clock Diagnostics

The Web Clock diagnostics can be used to determine the version of the clock firmware, reset the clock configuration and/or transactions, check the LCD display on the clock, reset the print number, display the print settings, display the actual clock configuration, and display the status of the clock.
