How to connect a device in Jarrison Time

1) To connect a device to the Jarrison Time clocking system, start by making sure the device is connected to the same network and domain as the machine running the Device Engine and Jarrison Time. Note to first connect a device in Jarrison Time the machine will need to be correctly licensed to add a new device.
3) Please also make sure the device has a fixed IP address.
You will then need to install the correct Jarrison Time interface depending on the device manufacturer.
3) Once the Interface has been installed go to the Jarrison Systems folder in the root folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Jarrison Systems\Jarrison Time) and you should find Registration batch files (.bat) run these files as administrator. You can now open Jarrison Time.
4) Once in Jarrison Time go to Access and then Devices, this will open up the Devices screen and you will see at the bottom left you will be able to Add a device.

Adding a device

5) Once the extra device slot has been added you can select the Device Type. If the button “Download device interface” does not disappear please install the correct device interface. If the button states “Device Interface installed”. Proceed to enter the IP address for the device.
6) Once the IP has been entered Ping the device using the “Ping” button.
If the ping is successful Jarrison Time will ask if you would like to get the device type and other information from the device. Click “Yes”.
Information regarding the device model will be collected and populated on the Devices screen.
7) Other configuration settings may now be applied as required and saved.
8) The device can be added to Access Groups as needed, and if Clocking Groups are enabled the device should be added for time and attendance.

Glossary of Terms

.Net Framework

(known as “dot net”) .Net is a software development framework for building and running applications on Windows.

Access Control

Access control refers to the restriction of people’s ability to clock on biometric devices based on location and/or time. Advanced access control includes anti-passback and zone sequencing.

Access Groups

Access Groups in Jarrison Time are combinations of Devices and Time Zones, used to determine on which devices and at which times members of the Access Groups may clock. Access Groups also facilitate restrictions based on too much or too little clocking in specified time-frames.

Access Groups can by synchronized or imported by Third-Party Import, or by users.

Access Zone

In Jarrison Time an Access Zone is how devices are grouped together to form logical zones for the purposes of access control. The option is available with the JT Live module.

Adjustments (Manual Adjustments)

Adjustments are the method of covering absence of time by employees in Jarrison Time. Examples of adjustments would be Annual leave and Sick leave. Adjustments are typically applied by a user via Daily Details as needed, or can be imported from file. It’s very important that Adjustments are correctly configured and applied as paid or unpaid. (Unpaid will result in Short Time.)

Anti Passback

Anti Passback is a form of access control where people are restricted from clocking on the device most recently clocked on, until they have clocked at another device.

Approval Bypass

Approval Bypass is a feature of Jarrison Time Approvals that allows for the first approval tier to be approved without any exceptions being cleared.

Approvals

Approvals are a system-wide setting that forces users to correct Exceptions and then lock periods from further editing, ready for submission to payroll.

Jarrison Time allows for up to three tiers of Approvals: Daily Summary (timesheet), Pay totals, Department totals. Starting at timesheet level, each tier needs to be approved before the next one can process.

Area

An Area in Jarrison Time refers to a GPS location with a set radius, which designates a permitted T&A clocking area for JT Clock users.
