Power & Durability

The TA777 functions as a simple to use data collection point for employee information. It can be linked to a variety of existing computer networks in your organization to complement the management information systems you already have in place. By automating your data collection process, you can eliminate the manpower and mistakes associated with conventional time cards thereby reducing both payroll costs and errors.

The TA777 guarantees accurate, reliable input. Employees simply enter information through the TA777’s keypad, by swiping a magnetic stripe or bar code badge. Employee feedback is provided through audible accept/reject tones and displayed messages.

Communication between the TA777 and your computer is accomplished by one of Time America’s polling and programming utilities or integrated time and attendance systems. The TA777 automatically transfers data to your computer. In turn, the computer is used to program the TA777.

Each of the TA777’s 8 function keys can be programmed to ask up to four levels of information. Each piece of information can be validated and stored in the terminal’s memory until requested by the host computer. The TA777 can be programmed to prompt employees for data input, display employee messages, validate job costing entries, restrict employee punching via a schedule, regulate employee access to restricted areas, control a bell and much more. The TA777 collects this data and transfers it to your computer via RS232 serial, RS485 LAN, internal dial-up modem or Ethernet communications.

The TA777’s metal construction provides a tough, yet lightweight and attractive look. The TA777’s internal battery provides full operation if power is lost.

What kind of data would you like to collect? Accurate tracking and reporting of employee time is essential to determining productivity. The TA777 provides an easy and cost effective means of gathering this type of data. If the data you’re after can be mag-striped, bar coded, or entered through a keypad, the TA777 can time stamp it, record it, and feed it to your computer, while performing other tasks at the same time. Put the power of automated data collection to use in your business!
