Steps | Yes | No | Description |
---|---|---|---|
1. Connect the clock to the network | When you connect the clock to the network it will initialize and immediately display the network IP address | ||
2. Write the IP address down | Write the IP address down. IP Adress: |
Steps | Yes | No | Description |
---|---|---|---|
1. Create a staging directory for the clock files on your local machine. | i.e. c:\clock | ||
2. Download the latest Genus clock files from the High Line Release wiki. | Release wiki: http://www.highlinecorp.com:8080/Release/Login.jsp?redirect=Main Clock software:http://www.highlinecorp.com:8080/Release/Wiki.jsp?page=Genus File name: Genus_G2_2_03_06.zip | ||
3.Place the files in your staging directory. | |||
4. Extract the files there | Unzip/Extract the files within your staging directory. There will be 2 files: App.jar and app.conf. | ||
5. Edit the app.conf file | This is the configuration file for the clock. There are a number of configuration settings here and commented examples for each configuration setting. For testing purposes, replace the TITLE setting with a title of your choosing. i.e. “TESTING” By selecting a customized title, it will be easier to confirm changes have been uploaded to the clock. |
Steps | Yes | No | Description |
---|---|---|---|
1. To download/upload the configuration files, etc. to/from the clock, TFTP software will be needed | With an operating system of Windows Vista or higher, a TFTP client compatible with the operating system will be needed. | ||
2. Download TFTP | The following site which has an free TFTP software: http://tftpd32.jounin.net/tftpd32.html Unzip and install the software on the local machine where the clock files are located (c:\clock). |
Steps | Yes | No | Description |
---|---|---|---|
1. Start the TFTP app, click on the “Tftp client” tab | In the “Host” field, enter the IP address of the clock (recorded in step 2). The port can be null (app will select a default port). | ||
2. Upload (PUT) the app.conf file | In the “Local File” field, input or browse for the path of the local directory where the edited file, app.conf, is located. In the “Remote File” field, enter the following for the path within the clock: \ramdisk\app.conf Click “PUT”. This will upload the file to the clock. | ||
3. Upload (PUT) the App.jar file | In the “Local File” field, input or browse for the path of the local directory where the file, App.jar, is located. In the “Remote File” field, enter the following for the path within the clock: \flashdisk\App.jar Click “PUT”. This will upload the file to the clock. | ||
4. The clock will now reboot | When the clock finishes initializing it will display the customized title change created when the app.conf file was edited. | ||
5. The clock will now be ready for enrollment or further configuration | Depending on what level of configuration defined at the initial edit of the app.conf file, more settings may need to be edited prior to enrolling an employment. Review the section detailing the configuration attributes. Make needed edits to the app.conf file prior to enrolling the employee. Otherwise, the screen prompts on the clock can be followed to enroll an employee. Verification that the employee is enrolled is can be done by reviewing ITCC in the Wiki. |

Other important files on the clock: File Location on clock. 1. errors.txt \ramdisk\errors.txt The location of the errors file on the clock. This is a log used for troubleshooting enrollment, and clock punch issues. You can download (GET) this file using the TFTP app. 2. Genus \config\g2_4_3_04 \flashdisk\Genus The location of the Genus files on the clock. The version path will change depending on the release. Accessed via TFTP. 3.
