How to Test a TimeClock 365 Biometric Clock (AutoTest)

If something on the clock doesn't seem right - the screen, sound, keys or fingerprint sensor - the built-in AutoTest checks each part for you.

This guide is for TimeClock 365 biometric clocks with a 2.8, 3 or 3.5-inch color screen. Menu names can differ slightly between models and firmware versions.

The tests

  • Test All - runs the screen, voice, sensor, keypad and clock tests one after another. Press OK to continue and ESC to exit.
  • Test LCD - shows full color, pure white and pure black screens so you can check the display.
  • Test Voice - plays the clock's voice files to check the sound.
  • Test Keyboard - press each key; it turns blue on screen if it works.
  • Test Fingerprint Sensor - place a finger on the sensor and check the image on screen is clear.
