The Dakar Hand Readers fully integrate seamlessly with the DakarHR suite of products. Users from within any module of the DakarHR system may view and monitor employee clcokings in real time.
 
No timecards or badges are needed to use the Dakar Hand reader. The employee's hand is their card. Their hand can't be lost or forgotten, which reduces your administrative costs. In addition, you'll never have to pay for another card.
The Dakar Hand Reader is a fully featured time clock complete with operational battery backup and user capacity expandable to 27,904. No other terminal positively verifies each employee and gives you the additional savings generated by eliminating time theft, and fraud.
Each time an employee uses the HandPunch, their identity is positively verified by the unique size and shape of their hand. No one can punch in or out for them, which gives you the most accurate payroll possible.
The Dakar Hand Reader is fast and easy to use. Verification time is typically one second.
Restricting the time an employee may use the Hand Reader eliminates early IN punches or unauthorized overtime punches. If an employee attempts to use the system during an unauthorized time, the system will display "TIME RESTRICTION".
Edit at the Clock
Supervisor override mode allows input at the clock of items such as missed punches, planned vacations, sick time, tips, etc. User restrictions may also be overridden via this mode. This increases supervisor flexibility and eliminates having all edits done at the computer. This mode is password protected and an audit trail identifying who entered the transactions is available.
Department Transfers
To assure you will get the data you need for an accurate payroll, the Dakar Hand Reader can automatically request department information for every punch or can be set to only request department data when asked by the employee. If a home department can be assumed for most transactions in your workplace, the user request mode minimizes data input for the majority of employees.
ID Number Input
Employees simply enter an ID number in the Dakar Hand Reader's built-in keypad and place their hand for verification. Once verified the clock displays "OKAY" followed by the user's ID number. Using the keypad can eliminate the costs associated with cards including administrative costs. When was the last time an employee lost or forgot their hand? Cards or bar codes may also be used to enter the ID number. The Reader can be ordered with an optional mag stripe, Wiegand or bar code reader. In this case, the employee would just swipe their badge and the HandPunch would ask them to place their hand for verification.
Explicit Punch Menu
Some workplaces cannot work with assumed schedules. If yours is one of them, turning this menu on makes sure your system gets the data required for accurate application of time and attendance rules and ultimately an accurate payroll. Selections such as In, Out and Back from Break or Lunch are available.
Communications and Networking
The Dakar Hand Reader comes standard with an RS-485 communications port that makes networking multiple units fast and reliable. Network options such as an internal dial-up modem or Ethernet module provide communications flexibility that ensures the most cost effective data collection methodology.
Daylight Savings
Specify the date and time for daylight savings to take effect and the Dakar Hand Reader will automatically add or subtract one hour at the clock.
Bell Schedule
The bell schedule allows the user to program the day, time and duration for a series of bell rings. These rings may be used to signal the start or end of a shift, lunch or break.
Operational Battery Backup
The system will accept punches for 2 to 3 hours after power is lost. All hand template data and reader setup data will be maintained for up to 5 years by the standard lithium battery backup internal to the Dakar Hand Reader.
