Important! Setting the Real-Time Clock (RTC)
A Real-time Clock (RTC) is a computer clock (usually on a chip) that keeps track
of the current time. RTC's are present in almost any electronic device which
needs to keep accurate time.
Important! You must always keep the RTC and the System Clock (clock
display) synchronized! Failure to do this will cause the Shift Interval Settings to
behave erratically and can even prevent employees from making normal
punches (all punches could result in "err").
Any time you change the system clock you must also
synchronize the RTC!
The ATR360 can maintain accuracy to within ±3 sec/wk of the RTC. It is
recommended that you synchronize the RTC with the system time (clock display)
at least once a year.
