Set Default Status – FA

In a busy work environment, users may accidentally select the wrong punch state (e.g., Break-In instead of Check-In) while clocking in or out. To prevent such errors and simplify the user experience, you can set a default punch state on the timeclock device.

Once enabled, the device will automatically assign the appropriate punch state without requiring manual input from the user.

Steps to Set a Default Punch State

1: Navigate to the Main Menu and tap on the [Personalize] option.

2: Tap on [Punch State Option] from the Personalize interface.

3: Select [Punch State Mode] and set it to [Fixed].

4: Tap the Back button (top-left corner) to return to the Punch State Option screen.

5: Set Punch State Required = Off

• This setting disables the manual selection prompt for punch state on the screen.

6: Tap [Fix Punch State] and choose [Check-IN] as the default state.

What Happens Next?

• The system will automatically manage punch transitions, converting Check-IN to Break-IN, Break-OUT, and Check-OUT logically based on usage patterns.

• Users simply need to tap and authenticate without worrying about selecting the correct state.

✅ Recommendation: Use this setting in environments where most users follow predictable schedules or where simplicity is key to avoiding punch errors.
