(NT300 Model)
The NOVAtime 1000 SBE package includes a NT300 proximity badge terminal
with and large easy-to-read LCD display. This terminal efficiently collects punch data and it is designed to fit the needs of most businesses.
Using a credit-card-type badge, employees use the terminals to punch IN and OUT and to record department or job transfers. The terminal provides name verification as the employee swipes his/her badge.
Programmable function keys can be set to allow review of previous punches as well as entering pay code hours (vacation, sick, etc.), and dollar amounts (tips, bonus, etc.)
The NT300 Proximity Badge Terminal communicates via RS232 up to 50 feet or via RS485 over a Serial Communication Port over a distance of up to 3000 feet! In addition, an optional external modem kit can be adapted to allow communication over a regular telephone line.  The terminal can also be equiped with ethernet board, for communication over LAN.
