Shift

Settings gear >【Shift】>【Edit Shift】

• Edit shift（Single shift）

The shift hours status can be set as: sign (regular hours) or OT (overtime hours). 

• Edit Shift（Multiple shifts）
  When there are multiple shifts, we recommend downloading the shift sheet to edit shifts instead of performing this action on the device. Editing all shifts through the shift sheet and uploading them back to the device is a more simplified workflow.

To edit shift using the shift sheet:

1. Touch the screen to prompt a menu bar to pop up on the right side.
2. Click the settings gear >【Shift】>【Atten rules】.
3. Insert the USB drive.
4. Click【Download Shift】to download the shift arrangement in excel form.
   • Note: It is extremely important that the file names are not modified, or the time clock will not recognize them when uploading shifts and users.
   • You can also edit the form on a PC, referring to below picture:
   • 
5. Edit shift arrangement according to the prompts on the form header.
   • A maximum of 8 shifts can be set.
6. Click【Save】after editing to save the file on the USB drive.

Notes:

• Punch times must be formatted as a time, and attendance type must be entered as digits. So when you handle the setting, make sure the input method is in "English half-angle" status.
• Checking Method: For example, when you input 10:30, double-click this cell, then the software will automatically turn the digits into 10:30:00.
• If you set the shift of cross time, an in punch before the cross time will be entered on the previous day. The shift must start after the cross time to be recorded on the current day. For example:

Cross time is set at 09:00 am. An in punch recorded before 09:00 am on Tuesday will be entered on the record for Monday.

• If you don't need to record or deduct the lunch punches, combine the two sections into one.

For example: 08:30-12:00 13:30-17:50, could just be entered in section 1: 08:30-17:50

• Time Skip setting is not allowed. For example, When you complete the entries in Section 1, you cannot enter data in Section 3 without completing entries in Section 2.

1. Finish editing the shift arrangement.
2. Insert the USB drive.
3. Click【Upload Shift】to upload the edited shift arrangements into device.

Bell

To access the Bell options:

1. Touch the screen to prompt a pop up on the right side of the screen.
2. Click the settings gear >【Shift】>【Bell】.
