2.0 MOUNTING THE HN3000/ HN4000

Install the time clock away from excessive moisture, extremely low or high temperatures, direct sunlight, dust, mechanical vibration, and shock. Installation should also take place away from the source of noise or electrical interference.

Follow these steps to mount your time clock to a wall:

1. Drill two holes in the wall, 4 1/2” apart.

2. Insert the two dowels into the wall and then

insert the two screws into the dowels.

3. Hang the time clock on the screws.

The ideal height is 36–40” from the base to the ground.

Cautions

To reduce the risk of re or shock hazard, observe the

following instructions carefully.

1. Disconnect the power before cleaning the time clock. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners; use only a damp cloth.

2. Never spill liquid of any kind on the time clock.

3. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords,

as this may cause the time clock to malfunction.

4. Never place or press objects into the time clock,

as this may cause a short circuit between parts and result in burning equipment.

5. Always plug the time clock into a surge protector

or uninterruptible power supply (UPS). If a surge protector is not used and there is a power surge, your warranty may become void.

HN3—Alarm Options

The HN3000 allows you to set up to 12 alarms during the week. You can set up alarms to signal the beginning and end of shifts and the beginning and end of breaks. At the designated time, the HN3000 will play the internal alarm music or ring an external bell, which is purchased separately.

Setting the Duration of the Alarm (code 00)

Under the HN3 menu, when the code “00” appears, set the duration of the alarm time (in seconds). Use the + and – buttons to make your selection, then press Enter to conrm the setting.

Setting the Ringing Time from Group 01 to Group 12 (codes 01–12)

You can set up to 12 different times, or groups, for the alarm/bell to ring during the work week. Each group is numbered 01–12. You may not wish to use all 12 alarms. For example, if you only wish to set alarms for the beginning and end of a lunch break, you will only set up alarms for two groups.

1. When the code “01” appears, use the + and – buttons to select the hour, then press Enter to

conrm the setting.

After you have set the hour, you will set the minute for the alarm.

2. Use the + and – buttons to select the minute, then

press Enter to conrm the setting.

After you have set the time, you will set the days of the week for the alarm.

3. Use the + and – buttons to scroll through the days.

A ashing triangle indicates the day that is currently

selected. The + button moves your selection from right to left and the – button moves your selection from left to right. Press the Back button to toggle each day on or off.

For example, if you would like to enable the alarm for weekdays only, you will disable the alarm for

Saturday and Sunday. When you see the ashing

triangle on Sunday, press the Back button and the triangle will be removed. Then press the – button to

select Saturday. When you see the ashing triangle

on Saturday, press the Back button to disable Saturday. Monday through Friday are still selected.

4. Press Enter to conrm these settings.

Next, you will select which alarm/bell will ring for this group. The internal alarm is music that the clock plays; the external bell is purchased separately. The options are:

01 External bell and internal alarm 02 External bell 03 Internal alarm

5. Use the + and – buttons to make your selection,

then press Enter to conrm the setting.

Repeat these steps for codes 02–12, if you wish to change the alarm for all 12 groups. If you do not wish to set up all 12 alarms, you can press the Mode button at any time to skip to the next menu. Always make sure you press Enter to save the selection you have just entered, before moving on.

HN4—Automatic Column Shift Settings

The HN3000 allows you to enter times at which the punch will automatically shift over to the next column on the time card, eliminating the need to manually press the button for the proper column. You can set up to 12 different times at which the punch column shifts (codes 01–12).

This feature is recommended for businesses whose employees often work the same days and hours. For

example, you may have ofce employees who all work

Monday–Friday from 8:00am–5:00pm and they all take a lunch break from 12:00pm–1:00pm. You would set up your time clock to punch in four columns: punching in at the beginning of the shift at 8:00am, punching out for lunch at 12:00pm, punching in from lunch at 1:00pm, and punching out at the end of the shift at 5:00pm. With these settings in place, an employee can simply enter the time card and the clock will punch the card in the proper column. However, if your employees work varying days and hours, such as in a retail store, they will need to manually press time clock buttons when punching in and out. For more information, see “5.2—Punching Time Cards.”

1. Under the HN4 menu, when the code “01” appears, use the + and – buttons to select the hour for the

rst punch. For 8:00am, set the hour to 08 and then press Enter to conrm the setting.

2. Use the + and – buttons to select the minute. For 8:00am, set the minute to 00 and then press Enter

to conrm the setting.

After you have set the time, you will set the days of the week.

3. Use the + and – buttons to scroll through the days.

A ashing triangle indicates the day that is currently

selected. The + button moves your selection from right to left and the – button moves your selection from left to right. Press the Back button to toggle each day on or off.

For example, if you would like to set the column shift for weekdays only, you will disable the setting for

Saturday and Sunday. When you see the ashing

triangle on Sunday, press the Back button and the triangle will be removed. Then press the – button to

select Saturday. When you see the ashing triangle

on Saturday, press the Back button to disable Saturday. Monday through Friday are still selected.

4. Press Enter to conrm these settings.

Next, you will select which column the time clock will punch. The options are:

01 Column 1 02 Column 2 03 Column 3 04 Column 4 05 Column 5 06 Column 6

5. Use the + and – buttons to make your selection.

For the rst punch of the day, select 01 and press Enter to conrm the setting.

Repeat these steps for the remaining codes. To follow the example in this section, you would set up code 02 to punch at 12:00pm on Monday–Friday in column 02; code 03 to punch at 1:00pm on Monday–Friday in column 03; and code 04 to punch at 5:00pm on Monday–Friday in column 04. You can enter up to 12 codes.

HN5—Print Color Options

The HN3000 allows you to enter times at which the punch color will change between red and black, highlighting times when employees punch in late or punch out early. You can set up to 24 times during the week when the print color will change between red and black (codes 01–24).

For example, your ofce employees work Monday–Friday

from 8:00am–5:00pm and they all take a lunch break from 12:00pm–1:00pm. You allow a grace period of 15 minutes for both arrival and departure times of your employees. However, you would like to know when an employee punches in 15 minutes late or more in the morning and when they punch out 15 minutes early or more in the afternoon. So you will set the clock to change the punch color to red from 8:15am–11:30am, because you want to make sure the punch color is black again before anyone punches out for lunch. You will then set the clock to change the punch color to red from 1:30pm–4:45pm. This will highlight any punches that take place between the lunch hour and 4:45pm. At 4:45pm, you want the punch color to be black again for employees who punch out at 4:45 or later.

1. Under the HN5 menu, when the code “01” appears, use the + and – buttons to select the hour that the punch color will switch. For 8:15am, set the hour to

08 and then press Enter to conrm the setting.

2. Use the + and – buttons to select the minute. For 8:15am, set the minute to 15 and then press Enter to

conrm the setting.

After you have set the time, you will set the days of the week for the color change.

3. Use the + and – buttons to scroll through the days.

A ashing triangle indicates the day that is currently

selected. The + button moves your selection from right to left and the – button moves your selection from left to right. Press the Back button to toggle each day on or off.

For example, if you would like to set the color change for weekdays only, you will disable the setting for

Saturday and Sunday. When you see the ashing

triangle on Sunday, press the Back button and the triangle will be removed. Then press the – button to

select Saturday. When you see the ashing triangle

on Saturday, press the Back button to disable Saturday. Monday through Friday are still selected.

4. Press Enter to conrm these settings.

Next, you will select which color you wish to print at this time. The options are:

01 Red 02 Black

5. Use the + and – buttons to make your selection. To switch the color to red, select 01 and then press

Enter to conrm the setting.

Repeat these steps for the remaining codes. To follow the example in this section, you would set up code 02 to change the color to black (02) at 11:30am on Monday–Friday; code 03 to change the color to red (01) at 1:30pm on Monday–Friday; and code 04 to change the color to black (02) at 4:45pm on Monday–Friday. You can enter up to 24 codes.

NOTE: When you have completed setting the codes, move the Set switch to the “–” position (to the left) and close the time clock cover.

5.0 USING THE HN3000

Now that you have set up your time clock menus, you are ready to use your HN3000 time clock.

5.1 Understanding Time Cards

The front of the time card (orange side) is numbered 1–15,

indicating the rst 15 days of the month, and the back

of the card (brown side) is numbered 16–31. The row on which your punch appears will depend on your pay period settings.

Example 1: If you have set up monthly pay periods

and have selected 1 as the rst day of the pay period,

row 1 will show punches for the 1st day of the month, row 2 will show punches for the 2nd day of the month, and so on.

Example 2: If you have set up weekly pay periods

and have selected Sunday as the rst day of the pay

period, row 1 will show punches for Sunday, row 2 will show punches for Monday, and so on. If you use weekly pay periods, you may use the reverse (brown)

side for the following pay period; row 16 will reect the rst day of the next pay period.

Example 3: If you have set up bi-weekly pay periods,

row 1 will show punches for the rst day of the pay

period. If you use bi-weekly pay periods, you may use the reverse (brown) side for the following pay period;

row 16 will reect the rst day of the next pay period.

Example 4: If you have set up semi-monthly pay

periods, row 1 will show punches for the rst day

of the pay period. If you use semi-monthly pay periods, you may use the reverse (brown) side for the

following pay period; row 16 will reect the rst day

of the next pay period.

5.2 Punching Time Cards

If you are not using the Automatic Column Shift Settings, employees must make sure they punch their card in the proper cell. Use these steps as a guide for punching time cards on the HN3000.

1. To punch in at the beginning of a shift, press the IN button on the far left of the keypad and insert the

time card. The punch will print in the rst column.

2. The next time you punch out, whether it is for a break, lunch, or at the end of the shift, press the OUT button that corresponds with the second column. Insert the time card and the punch will print in the second column.

3. If you have punched out for a break and need to punch in again, press the IN button that corresponds with the third column, and insert the time card. The punch will print in the third column.

4. You can press the next OUT button to punch out for another break or at the end of a shift. The six columns on the time card allow for you to punch in and out three times each, per day.

5.3 HN3000 Error Codes

If an error occurs, the HN3000 will display the error code.

ER 01—Wrong side of time card inserted.

ER 21—Battery needs to be charged.

HN4—Automatic Column Shift Settings

The HN4000 allows you to enter times at which the punch will automatically shift over to the next column on the time card, eliminating the need to manually press the button for the proper column. You can set up to 12 different times at which the punch column shifts (codes 01–12).

This feature is recommended for businesses whose employees often work the same days and hours. For

example, you may have ofce employees who all work

Monday–Friday from 8:00am-5:00pm and they all take a lunch break from 12:00pm–1:00pm. You would set up your time clock to punch in four columns: punching in at the beginning of the shift at 8:00am, punching out for lunch at 12:00pm, punching in from lunch at 1:00pm, and punching out at the end of the shift at 5:00pm. With these settings in place, an employee can simply enter the time card and the clock will punch the card in the proper column. However, if your employees work varying days and hours, such as in a retail store, they will need to manually press time clock buttons when punching in and out. For more information, see “7.2—Punching Time Cards.”

01 Column 1 02 Column 2 03 Column 3 04 Column 4

5. Use the + and – buttons to make your selection.

For the rst punch of the day, select 01 and press

Enter.

HN5—Print Color Options

The HN4000 allows you to enter times at which the punch color will change between red and black, highlighting times when employees punch in late or punch out early. You can set up to 24 times during the week when the print color will change between red and black (codes 01–24).

For example, your ofce employees work Monday–Friday

1. Under the HN5 menu, when the code “01” appears, use the + and – buttons to select the hour that the punch color will switch. For 8:15am, set the hour to

08 and then press Enter to conrm the setting.

selected. The + button moves your selection from right to left and the – button moves your selection from left to right. Press the Back button to toggle each day on or off.

For example, if you would like to set the color change for weekdays only, you will disable the setting for

Saturday and Sunday. When you see the ashing

triangle on Sunday, press the Back button and the triangle will be removed. Then press the – button to

select Saturday. When you see the ashing triangle

on Saturday, press the Back button to disable Saturday. Monday through Friday are still selected.

4. Press Enter to conrm these settings.

01 Red 02 Black

5. Use the + and – buttons to make your selection. To switch the color to red, select 01 and then press

Enter to conrm the setting.

NOTE: When you have completed setting the codes, move the Set switch to the “–” position (to the left) and close the time clock cover.

7.0 USING THE HN4000

Now that you have set up your time clock menus, you are ready to use your HN4000 time clock.

7.1 Understanding Time Cards

One time card will be used per pay period. The front of the time card (orange side) is numbered 1–15, indicating the

rst 15 days of the month, and the back of the card (brown

side) is numbered 16–31. The row on which your punch appears will depend on your pay period settings.

Example 1: If you have set up monthly pay periods

and have selected 1 as the rst day of the pay period,

row 1 will show punches for the 1st day of the month, row 2 will show punches for the 2nd day of the month, and so on.

Example 2: If you have set up weekly pay periods

and you selected Sunday as the rst day of the pay

period, row 1 will show punches for Sunday, row 2 will show punches for Monday, and so on.

Example 3: If you have set up bi-weekly pay periods,

row 1 will show punches for the rst day of the pay

period.

Example 4: If you have set up semi-monthly pay

periods, row 1 will show punches for the rst day of

the pay period.

NOTE: Make sure you insert the time card on the

correct side. The time clock will recognize if the time

card has been inserted backward and will display an error message.

7.2 Punching Time Cards

If you are not using the Automatic Column Shift Settings, employees must make sure they punch their card in the proper cell. Use these steps as a guide for punching time cards on the HN4000. The clock will display an error message if you attempt to repeat punches in the same cell.

1. To punch in at the beginning of a shift, press the IN button on the far left of the keypad and insert the

time card. The punch will print in the rst column.

2. If you punch out for a break or lunch, press the

OUT button that is farthest to the left on the keypad. Insert the time card and the punch will print in the second column.

3. If you have punched out for a break and need

to punch in again, press the next IN button that corresponds with the third column, and insert the time card. The punch will print in the third column.

4. When you punch out at the end of a shift, press

the OUT button that corresponds with the fourth column, and insert the time card.

If you are only making two punches in a day, you should

use the rst and fourth columns. The IN punch will appear in the rst column and the OUT punch will appear in the

fourth column.

7.3 Time Card Calculations

The HN4000 will automatically calculate the hours on the time card. Daily totals are calculated immediately after

the nal punch is made for the day. Pay period totals are calculated immediately after the nal punch is made on

the last day of the pay period.

However, you can force the time clock to calculate the hours at any time you wish. To calculate hours on a time card, press the two buttons on the far right of the

keypad simultaneously until you hear two beeps. Release the buttons and then insert the time card with the front (orange) side facing forward.

IN OUT IN OUT

IN OUT

Calculations will print on the front of the time card in the top row above row 1. The following totals will print:

Column 2: Total of weekly overtime hours in pay period (Weekly and Bi-weekly modes). This will be calculated based only on overtime hours that exceed the number of hours you have set and excludes any daily overtime hours.

Column 2: Number of punch pairs (Monthly and

Semi-monthly modes). This number reects the

number of times the employee has punched in and out during the pay period.

Column 4: Total of regular hours in pay period. This number will be a summary of all hours printed on the time card in the REG columns, after deductions and rounding.

Column 6: Total of overtime hours in pay period. This number will be the sum of all hours printed on the time card in the OT columns and the weekly overtime hours.

If the current pay period ending date is on the back side of the time card, after the calculation has been taken for the last day of the pay period, the clock will display “FLIP” for

up to 20 seconds. This will allow you to ip your time card

around and re-insert the time card back into the clock to have the summary for the pay period printed on the time card.

After the last day of the pay period, the time clock will clear the stored information for the pay period.

7.4 HN4000 Error Codes

If an error occurs, the HN4000 will display the error code.

ER 01—Wrong side of time card inserted. ER 02— Punch Sequence Issue. A minute has not

elapsed since the last in/out punch.

ER 03—Repeat punch in same column. ER 21—Battery needs to be charged. ER 91— Print Head Motor Issue: wrong position,

left and right

ER 92— Card Feed Motor Issue: wrong position,

up and down

ER 93—Button Issue ER 94—Internal memory issue

7.5 Resetting the HN4000

To simply restart the time clock, press the Reset button.

See “6.2—Changing the Settings in the HN4000” to complete setup.

7.6 Examples of Time Calculations

IMPORTANT: Each time card has a unique number. You

cannot use the same numbered time card more than once in a pay period. The number appears in the lower-right corner of the time card.

Example 1:

In Out In Out

8:02 12:04 12:34 17:04

Time clock settings:

• Punch Rounding: OFF

• Break/Lunch Deduction: ON, after 8:30 hours deduct 30 minutes

• Overtime = 8 hours

Total time before calculation: 8:32

Total time after calculation: 8 hours regular time, 2 minutes OT

The time card will look like this:

B 00

Example 2:

In Out In Out

8:02 12:04 12:34 17:04

Time clock settings:

• Punch Rounding: 5 min 3 breakpoint

• Break/Lunch Deduction: ON, after 8:30 hours deduct 30 minutes

• Overtime = 8 hours

With Punch Rounding set at the 5 min 3 breakpoint, the time card will round the punch times to the following:

In Out In Out

8:00 12:05 12:35 17:05

Total time after rounding before calculation: 8:35

Total calculation: 8 hours regular time, 5 minutes OT

The time card will look like this:

B 00
