Every punch is stamped with the clock's own date and time, so a wrong clock time means wrong attendance records. This guide shows how to set the date and time on the clock.
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.
Steps
- On the clock's main screen, press M/OK.
- Select System and press OK.
- Select Date Time and press OK.
- Press ▲/▼ and OK to set each item:
- Set Date and Set Time - the clock's date and time.
- 24-Hour Time - ON for 24-hour display, OFF for 12-hour.
- Date Format - how dates are shown on the clock.
- Daylight Saving Time - turn on and set the start and end, if your country uses DST.
- Press OK to save and exit.
Daylight saving time
When Daylight Saving Time is on, set the DST start and end in Daylight Saving Setup. Choose the Daylight Saving Mode: by date/time (month, day, hour) or by week/day (month, week, weekday, hour).
Already have punches with the wrong time? You can correct them in the web portal. See How to Edit the Detailed Attendance Report.
