Installing the Time Recorder

Unpacking and Inspection

Carefully unpack your recorder and inspect it for any damage. Verify that the following accessories are included: three mounting screws, a case lock key, and the General Service Instructions. Report damage or shortages to the company from which the unit was purchased.

Site Requirements

The recorder should be mounted on a sturdy wall, shelf, or other support area. Do not use the recorder under the following conditions:

• extremely high or low temperature [operating range: 0° to 50° C (32° to 122° F)]
• extremely high or low humidity [operating range: 0 to 90% RH non-condensing]
- areas of high dust concentration
- areas with extreme vibration or when placed on an unstable or unlevel surface

Mounting the Recorder and Card Racks

The recorder requires an uninterrupted AC power supply, and should be mounted within 6 feet of a power receptacle to accommodate the unit's power cord. The suggested wall mounting layout for the recorder and optional card racks is shown in Figure 4. Suggestions for mounting on specific wall and shelf surfaces follow.

Figure 4 (suggested mounting layout)

Wooden/Plywood Walls

You may use the three screws included with the recorder to mount the recorder. Install a screw in the wall 53" above the floor. Leave enough of the screw protruding so the recorder will hang flat against the wall through the "keyhole" on back of the clock. Hang and level the recorder. Insert and tighten screws through the lower left and right mounting holes.

Masonry Walls

You may use plastic masonry anchors and screws available at your local hardware store to mount the recorder. Mark a location on the wall 53" above the floor. Drill a hole with a 1/4" masonry bit and insert a plastic anchor. Tighten a screw at this location, leaving enough of the screw protruding so the recorder will hang flat against the wall through the "keyhole" on back of the clock. Hang and level the recorder. Mark the location of the lower left and right mounting holes. Remove the recorder, drill holes, and insert anchors. Replace the recorder, insert and tighten screws through the lower left and right mounting holes, and fully tighten the "keyhole" screw.

Sheetrock/Hollow Core Walls

You may use "molly" fasteners available at your local hardware store to mount the recorder. Follow the procedure for masonry walls, using the "molly" fasteners instead. Alternatively, you may use longer wood screws to attach the recorder to a stud behind the sheetrock, using the "keyhole" and the lower center mounting hole on the recorder.

NOTE: Always consult with a professional contractor/carpenter and obey all local building and fire codes when installing your recorder.

Maintenance

To obtain the best results from your recorder, we recommend periodic inspection, cleaning, and oiling throughout each year by an authorized dealer. For further information, contact your dealer or Acroprint Time Recorder Co., 5640 Departure Dr., Raleigh, NC 27616, U.S.A. IN USA 800.334.7190
