How To Set Default Punch State for Fingerprint Time Clock

Overview

When employees use the fingerprint time clock, they see options like Check-In, Break-In, Break-Out, and Check-Out. Selecting the wrong option can lead to attendance errors.

To prevent this, you can set a default punch state, so employees do not need to select a punch type manually. The system will automatically assign punch states based on the predefined settings.

Steps to Set Default Punch State

1. Navigate to the Main Menu and tap [Personalize].
2. Tap [Punch State Option] from the Personalize interface.
3. Select [Fixed] as the Punch State Mode.
4. Tap the Back Button (top-left) to return to the Punch State Option.
5. Set Punch State Required = Off.
6. Tap [Fix Punch State] and select [Check-In] as the default state.

Once set, the system will automatically assign punch states, reducing errors caused by incorrect selections.

How to Disable Shortcut Key Functions

After setting the Default Punch State, it is recommended to disable shortcut key functions to prevent accidental punch selection errors.

Steps to Disable Shortcut Keys:

1. Navigate to Main Menu > Personalize > Shortcut Key Mapping.
2. Select F1 > Punch State Option > Undefined.
3. Repeat the same process for all function keys to disable them completely.

By configuring the default punch state and disabling shortcut keys, businesses can reduce punch errors, ensure accurate attendance tracking, and improve payroll accuracy.
