What device settings are available in your personal account?

1. Where can I find the device settings?
In the web version of Clockster, go to the “Settings” section, then open the “Devices” tab.


2. Main device parameters

Title
– This is the name you assign to the device.
– It will be displayed under this name in the Clockster system.
– It’s recommended to name it according to the location or installation point, for example: “Mega Mall, Main Entrance.”


Master password
– This is a special password used to access the settings directly on the device.
– Why is it needed? To prevent employees from accidentally or intentionally changing important parameters such as date and time.
– If the date or time are incorrect, all attendance records (clock-ins/clock-outs) will also be inaccurate.


Location
– The device must be linked to a specific location; otherwise, it won’t function properly.
– Linking the location allows:

  1. Uploading employee photos assigned to that location to the device.

  2. Transferring attendance records from the device to the Clockster system.


Shift period
– This setting defines the maximum number of hours in a single shift.
– Clockster needs to know how long a workday can last at most.
– The default value is 14 hours.
– Why is this important?
If an employee stays at work longer than the set limit (for example, during overtime or an overnight shift), the next check-in will be mistakenly recorded as a “Clock-in” instead of a “Clock-out,” causing an error in the work time calculation.


How to set the shift period correctly:
If the standard workday is 8 hours, it’s recommended to set at least 12 hours to account for:
– Early arrivals,
– Late departures,
– Overtime — without risking errors in attendance tracking.


Summary:
Before using the device, make sure to configure all parameters — title, master password, location, and shift period. This will help prevent attendance tracking errors and save you time on correcting employee records later.
