3.1 Basic ter s
The Acroprint ATR 440 has incorporated many state-of-the-art features
in this electronic time recorder. We've included the following terms to
help you understand how these features are used.
Battery switch This switch is located on the bottom of the recorder.
The battery is supplied to allow the recorder to function and to print
during power outages. This switch allows for the battery to be turned
off when in storage or during shipment. This will assure a fully
charged battery when installed. Make sure the battery switch is turned
on when in use.
Cross shift ti e recorder There are several types of cross shift
machines on the market today. The ATR 440 is an across the card
time recorder. The day progresses across the card. See cross s ift time
cards. Starting with the morning "In" punch on the left side of the
card, and moving laterally to the right as the day progresses (Lunch
Out, Lunch In, Out End of Day, In Overtime and Out Overtime) for a
total of moves. The week progresses down the card; Monday will
automatically be positioned below Sunday, etc.
Cross shift ti e cards The ATR 440 accommodates several types of
popular time cards. (See chart on page 15.) This recorder is designed
to handle 3-3/8" wide time cards with six columns across the card. The
type of pay period determines the positions down the card. For
example, 7 spaces for weekly, 14 for biweekly, and 1 spaces for
biweekly or semimonthly pay periods.
Daylight Saving Ti e (DST) The ATR 440 allows for automatic
daylight saving time adjustment to occur. You must select the date and
time for the start and stop of Daylight Saving Time each year. The
recorder will not automatically update DST each year.
Day change This adjustment allows you to select the time of day that
the day/date will advance to the next day. This is particularly useful if

you have employees scheduled across the traditional midnight day
change or a shift starting on one day and ending on the next.
Pay period ending date The pay period ending date is selected so
that the first day of the pay period prints at the top of the time card and
the last day of the pay period prints at the bottom of the appropriate
time card.
Progra ing The ATR 440 incorporates many programmable
features allowing the user to select formats best suited for their needs.
Basic programming is accomplished by using the across the card
position buttons (IN-OUT) located on the top of the recorder. When
the top cover is opened, the recorder enters the programming mode.
By using the PRO button on the top of the recorder, you may select a
program mode P1, P2, or P3. The combination of Program Mode and
Function Buttons, F1-F5 (IN-OUT) allows you to access various
portions of the program. You can refer to the label on the inside top
cover or the diagram on page 10 of this manual for further descrip-
tion.
Selectable print/display for at The selectable print format allows
you to select the type of hour shown on the digital display. Whatever
display format is selected, the print format will be the same. You can
select type of hours, 12-hour format or 24-hour format. In the 12-hour
format AM or PM will be shown on the upper right of the display.
When selecting the 12-hour format, the printed minutes are under-
scored denoting PM hours Example: At two fifteen in the afternoon,
the recorder would print 02:15. In the 24-hour format the registration
would be 14:15. You may also select the portion of hours the recorder
will print: minutes, twentieths or hundredths. (See chart on page 1 .)
Selectable portions of the hour You may also select how a portion of
an hour will print; the options are standard minutes, tenths, twentieths
or hundredths of an hour. The digital display will always show por-

tions of an hour in minutes regardless of selection. (See chart on page
1 .)
Selectable day/date i print The ATR 440 allows you to choose to
print the day of week or the date of month. You may also select not to
have either the day or date print. Then only the hour and minute would
print. If selecting the day, you may also select one of six languages or
numeric printing of the day (D1, D2, etc). (See the chart on page 17.)
Signal/signal duration Signals are used to audibly denote starting
and stopping shift or break times. The ATR 440 is equipped with a
programmable signal control with calendar and duration settings. You
may select up to 42 signals with a variable duration of 1 to 99 seconds,
on selected days. The recorder also includes an audible tone generator
that sounds a melody. This built-in tone is ideal for an office
environment. For a louder sound, an external signal (bell or horn) may
be connected to the recorder. A relay will be required. Please consult
your local electrician.
Ti e card type By selecting the time card type, the ATR will
automatically adjust spacing. Please select only card type numbers 02,
12, 13, 14, 15 or 1 for use with the ATR 440. Other card type
numbers 01, 03, 04, 05, 0 , 07, 08, 09, 10, 11, and 17 although
displayed, may not work correctly with this model. See page 15 of this
manual.
Two color ribbon The ATR 440 features a two color ribbon program.
This allows you to set schedules and indicate by printing in red when
employees arrive late or leave early. This two color feature makes
auditing time cards quick and easy.

3.2 Basic progra ing instructions
The programming mode is entered by unlocking and removing the top
cover from the ATR 440 with the power on. The IN/OUT buttons on
the clock serve as function keys in the programming mode. The
functions of each button are listed below and on the inside cover of the
recorder.
PRO: Press the PRO(gram) button to select the program group. If
you're in P1 mode, press the PRO button again to enter the P2 program
group. Pressing PRO again will take you to the P3 programming
choices.

overtime has a separate column. Manual shifting is accomplished
by the employee selecting and pressing the IN/OUT buttons on the top
of the recorder. This causes the print to move across the card to the
selected position. Employees on different schedules can select the
appropriate "punch" location. The ATR 440 can also be programmed
to automatically move across the card. This is best utilized when a
"fixed" schedule is being used. (See position codes on the page 25).
Up/down and across the card adjust ents The ATR 440 is a very
versatile time recorder. Because the spacing on different style time
cards vary, the ATR 440 allows for adjustments to assure each
registration is "near center" of the appropriate print position.
