At least one
function, called Clking, must be defined for every clock.
This is used when an employee swipes a card at the clock without
using any of the function keys. When a card is swiped at the clock a
unique number is added to the transaction string which determines
which function is used. A procedure file is allocated to every
function to determine what is done with the transaction and what
message format is output (if any) to the clock.
Caution! Do not change any of
the settings on this screen unless you have been advised to do so by
NorthgateArinso or you have had relevant training. Changing these
settings could cause you Optimum system to behave unpredictably or
stop working.
