BASYS Time is a card-based time attendance monitoring system. It is modular, web-based, simple to use and maintain, and offers universal data access. It consists of:<\/p>\n
- \n
- one or more\u00a0terminals<\/li>\n
- communication\u00a0modules and accessories<\/li>\n
- identification (ID)\u00a0cards<\/li>\n
- relational\u00a0database<\/li>\n
- software.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>
Terminals<\/h2>\n
Terminals are\u00a0electronic devices that register entries and exits<\/strong>. A terminal contains a card reader (proximity, magnetic, smart chip) and a communication interface, allows the definition of specific exit reasons, and memorises a certain number of transactions. Different types of terminals can be integrated into the BASYS Time system. Most installations were carried out using terminals of the\u00a0GONG<\/strong>\u00a0series, and some using\u00a0Kaba Benzing<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Zucchetti-TMC<\/strong>\u00a0terminals.<\/p>\n
Terminals are\u00a0completely autonomous in operation<\/strong>. They acquire registrations 24 hours a day independently of computer activity, and transfer the data to a computer when it establishes connection. With standard batteries, terminals will accept registrations for 3 hours after being powered down. Even without external power, memorised registrations will remain preserved for up to 5 years.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>Communication<\/h2>\n
Between the terminal and the computer, data are exchanged through a communication link. Depending on the BASYS Time configuration, several communication interfaces are available:<\/p>\n
- \n
- RS 232 \u2013 standard module in all terminals for communication up to 35\u00a0m<\/li>\n
- RS485 \u2013 standard module in most terminals for communication up to 1200 m; the computer must be equipped with an RS232\/485\/422 converter<\/li>\n
- Ethernet \u2013 this communication module is optional, whether built into the terminal or external<\/li>\n
- Modem \u2013 standard, ISDN or GSM modem is optional; the computer must be equipped with a modem of the same type<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
All communication interfaces take up one serial or USB port on the computer. If communication is done through a USB port, the computer must be equipped with a USB\/RS232 converter.<\/p>\n<\/div>
Cards<\/h2>\n
Cards are a medium for authorisation and\/or identification of persons, with one or more data carriers: magnetic stripe, contact or contactless chip, or any combination of these. Today, contactless CR-80 cards dominate for two reasons: advantages inherent to the contactless technology and easier graphic processing of the cards. (There are no card printing limitations normally imposed by a magnetic stripe or contact chip.)<\/p>\n
BASYS Time supports various card types: passive read-only and programmable contactless cards, Mifare and Legic cards, magnetic cards with 1, 2 or 3 tracks, etc. More information on cards and their personalisation can be found on web pages dedicated to our identification products<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>
Databases<\/h2>\n
Owing to Microsoft technology and universal data access, BASYS Time is\u00a0independent of the type of the relational database<\/strong>\u00a0in which data is stored. Depending on the customer\u2019s wishes and preferences, the software can operate with\u00a0MS SQL<\/strong>,\u00a0MSDE<\/strong>,\u00a0MS Access<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Oracle<\/strong>\u00a0databases.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
Software<\/h2>\n
Software is the central part of the BASYS Time system, and consists of:<\/p>\n
- \n
- the client part of the programme for time and attendance registration<\/li>\n
- a programme for automatic acquisition of registrations (entry and exit times)<\/li>\n
- a programme for automatic calculation of attendance<\/li>\n
- a reporting module designed around Internet application Iregs<\/li>\n
- auxiliary programmes for data archiving and compression.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The system is comfortably parameterised via a graphic user interface:<\/p>\n
- \n
- definition of terminal network topology and communication parameters<\/li>\n
- definition of the company\u2019s organisational structure<\/li>\n
- entering basic personnel data<\/li>\n
- definition of the working calendar<\/li>\n
- entering various types of working hours (physical presence, fixed, flexible, time off)<\/li>\n
- shift planning, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The customer can use adaptable built-in\u00a0reports<\/strong>\u00a0or define his or her own.\u00a0Data export<\/strong>\u00a0to standard formats (Excel, CSV, etc.) is also supported.<\/p>\n
Registration data can also be accessed remotely via a\u00a0web interface<\/strong>. Only an Internet browser such as MS Internet Explorer is needed on the user\u2019s computer. Using the same interface, an authorized user can change a subset of data, e.g. enter new employee records or correct faulty registrations.<\/p>\n
