HandScan 3000E Hand Punch

The need to identify people is as old as humankind. People recognize each other by sight and sound. However, in today's complex society, it's impossible to personally know everyone and as a consequence, systems rely on recognizing a credential rather than the individual. Our HandPunch time and attendance systems recognize people-not credentials-using physical characteristics of hand geometry to identify an individual. They assure that "you are you".

A known example of payroll fraud is when one employee punches in for another employee. This is also referred to as, "Buddy punching". Did you know that 5 minutes of an employees time is equal to 1% of their daily pay? 5 minutes here and there can quickly add up to lost revenue. Improved payroll accuracy is guaranteed by the elimination of "buddy-punching." With the HandPunch, your hand is your badge.

Ingersoll Rand Recognition Systems now brings the accuracy and convenience of biometric technology easily within reach of most time and attendance applications. In operations that range from coal mines to clean rooms, Ingersoll Rand Recognition Systems have proven themselves to be a practical and precise solution. Our terminals are so affordable, it doesn't make sense to consider any other technology.

Smarter than card-based terminals

There are no cards to create, administer, carry -- or lose. The HandPunch verifies employees' identities in less than one second, based on the unique size and shape of their hands. HandPunch clearly notifies each user of a match using red and green indicator lights. Because no one can punch in or out for your employees, the system reduces time theft and improves payroll accuracy.

Versatile and Programmable

Beyond a simple time clock, the HandPunch 3000 provides definable function keys that allow data collection when employees punch. The systems transmit data to the time and attendance host PC through a variety of options.

When you want to cut time and attendance costs...do it by hand.

Hand Geometry Technology

The HandPunch 3000 uses Ingersoll Rand Recognition Systems' field-proven hand geometry biometric technology. The terminal captures a three-dimensional image of the hand each time the employee punches. The hand's size and the shape are used to verify their identity with unparalleled accuracy. No fingerprints or palm prints are utilized. Green and red lights notify the employee of the status of each punch. There's no question any more; employees have to be there to punch.

Programmable Function Keys

The HandPunch 3000 has two user-definable function keys that let you collect data as employees punch. Common uses include department transfers, tips collected, job codes, or pay codes. Multi-level data entry sequences may be defined. You can also set the function keys to allow employees to review their past punches. To reduce keystrokes, the keys can also be set to automatically enter data such as a frequently used department number or in/out status.

Communication Options

The HandPunch 3000, designed for larger networked installations, allows multiple units to be connected at a site via RS-485 wiring, an optional Ethernet module, or dial-up modem.

Edit-at-the-Clock Functions

The HandPunch 3000 allows supervisors to override user restrictions and to input such items as missed punches, planned vacations, sick time, etc. The password-protected mode provides greater supervisor flexibility by lessening the need for computer edits. Audit trails documenting the use of these functions are generated to ensure security.

Bell Schedules

The bell schedule lets you program the day, time, and duration of a series of bells. The bells can be programmed to signal the beginning or end of a shift, lunch, or break.

Door Control

The HandPunch 3000 provides the capability to unlock and monitor a door. Global time zones may be used to restrict employee access.

Note: Some time and attendance software packages may not have implemented all of these features in their interface software. Please check with your software vendor for details.
