How Does the Vetro System Work?

The TimePilot Vetro clock is attached to a wall and powered by a nearby electrical outlet. Employees can clock in and out in two ways: by tapping their iButton to the “In” or “Out” probes at the bottom of the clock; or by entering a four-digit ID code and pressing the “In” or the “Out” button on the clock’s keypad.

There are also two ways for supervisors to collect the clock-in and clock-out data:

• If you're using the system in "Standalone Mode" (not cabled to your network), the supervisor plugs their TimePilot USB drive into the port on the right side of the clock, enters their password and instructs the clock to transfer its data to the USB drive. After collecting the data, they plug the USB drive into their computer, where it’s imported into the TimePilot Central software. The clock’s memory can hold 15,000 transactions: that’s equivalent to 166 days of average use by a 15-employee company. (Of course, with the TimePilot Vetro system, you download all your transactions to the USB drive every pay period, so you’ll probably never come close to having 15,000 transactions!)
• If you've cabled the system to your network, the data is collected automatically and imported into the TimePilot Central software.

Once your clock-in and clock-out data is in the TimePilot Central software, supervisors can use to software to review the data and prepare it for payroll. To learn more about the software and to see a series of screenshots, click here.
