Re: data collection - T/A

[DaleGindlesperger@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Pete,

On the thin clients we use (Affirmative's and CLI's), you can set them up
to autostart a TN5250 session and logon automatically.  I set up the
user-ID to automatically run a CL that starts the MDCC T&A screen.  All you
have to do is push the power button and in a minute you have the T&A
clock-in/out screen.

The green screen MDCC T&A screen works just fine - shows the name and
in/out status.  The only issue is the lack of a running clock on the screen
that is big enough for the users to see.  But since we built a buzzer
system that the AS/400 drives, that's not an issue anymore.

Cork,
Are those terminals you setup  for T&A dedicated to just T&A?
Or can/do they do other transactions?
If dedicated is there someplace to config that certain terminals will do
nothing but T&A??
I guess I am not sure what you mean by autostart into T&A green screen!!!!
Thanks
Pete

Jeff,

I think the closest you can come to a "dumb" clock for use with MDCC/PLMC
is to use a thin client PC or terminal that autostarts into the green
screen T&A option. We use that on several of our doors/gates - all you
have to do is turn the device on and in a minute or so it comes up as a T&A
device. No keyboard or mouse is required, just the display screen and a
badge reader (the device is hidden away).

Works just fine....

Ref : Time / Attendance

I have a customer who has the 'paperless' data collection product and
would like to use dumb time clocks to record, swipe, TA in /out and
feed
PLMC, PMC, PR, etc.

I am an 'application guy', and dont really have the tech. background to
answer this inquiry.

I was wondering if anybody had any experience in this area and had any
suggestions , hardware wise, and or 'issue' wise.

Thanks
