Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (a) Technical Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a time recorder, and particularly to a multifunctional time recorder.

(b) Background of the technology In recent years, multi-functional time recorders have become available that allow simultaneous input of time registration and the meaning of the registered time, such as the distinction between late arrival and staggered dispatch, and the direct computer processing of this data. is becoming popular.

A magnetic recording type ID card is generally used as an individual identification means in such a time recorder.

(c) Conventional technology and problems In the multi-functional time recorder as described above, there are various tasks such as setting (adjusting) the time in a part of the timer, retrieving and aggregating registered time data when offline, responding to inquiries or giving warnings, etc. There are operation items that are only allowed to specific operators, such as data settings for the message service and maintenance tests, but it is necessary to protect these from erroneous operations by unspecified operators, or to lock the time recorder door using a predetermined key. The method used was to open the door and use a switch on the operation panel installed inside.

For this reason, it is necessary to provide a key switch or a door with a lock, which has the drawback of inevitably increasing space and cost.

(d) Object of the Invention The object of the present invention is to eliminate the various disadvantages of the above-mentioned time recorders.

(e) Structure of the Invention The present invention provides a time recorder that uses an ID card to input data for attendance management. The security function provided in the time recorder is canceled only when it is determined that the two codes are a registered predetermined combination. The present invention is characterized by providing means for verifying that the password code and the above-mentioned two codes are a registered predetermined combination.

(f) Examples of the invention Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

1 to 3 are a system configuration diagram, a functional block diagram, and an external view, respectively, of a time recorder to which the present invention is applied.

In FIG. 1, the identification information of the ID card 1 is read by the ID card reader 2, and the time is registered for the item selected on the time recorder main body 3, such as leaving work on time, staggered dispatch, returning from work on a business trip, etc. These data are either temporarily stored in a memory bag inside the time recorder or sent to the central processing unit 4 via a line for processing. (The time recorder main body 3 shown in FIG. 1 has various functions as shown in FIG. In addition to reading the check code and PIN code that can be used as necessary, the key operation unit 5 also displays items to be registered in time and inquiry items, such as cumulative overtime hours and remaining paid leave. A key switch (push button switch) is provided to select the number of days, etc., and the message display section 6 displays the response contents and notifications to the above-mentioned inquiries, as well as other warning messages, such as when the specified overtime hours are exceeded. Ru.

Further, the printer control unit 7 can output the contents of the memory 8, such as time registration data, operation history, failure information, etc., to a printer (not shown) as necessary.

FIG. 3 is an external view of the time recorder main body, in which (A) is a perspective view and (B) is an enlarged plan view of the operating section. In FIG. 3, when a 10 card is inserted into the card reader section 2, the identification code is read and one of the key switches of the key operation section 5 is pressed to select a predetermined mode. In the figure, there are four key switches.
Four modes are selected: leaving, special, and inquiry. When the going to work or leaving work mode is selected, the time on the time display section 9 is registered in correspondence with the employee code of the identification codes. On the other hand, when the special or inquiry mode is selected, for example, if you press the inquiry mode a predetermined number of times to inquire about the number of remaining days of annual leave, the message display section 6 will output and display the inquiry and the answer to it. Ru.

By the way, a specific operator, such as a person in charge of the employment management department or a person in charge of equipment maintenance, can calibrate the display time and the registered time, and also calibrate the memory 8 as necessary as described above.
The contents of the system are retrieved or maintenance tests are performed on the equipment.

For this purpose, in the present invention, as shown in FIG.
0 personal identification code 10 on the card (XXXX on the diagram)
XX), a card identification code 11 (also Y) and a check code 12 (same < ZZZ) are provided.

The personal identification code 1o is, for example, a coded version of an employee number, and is a code unique to each card.

The card identification code E1 corresponds to the classification of the operator of the time recorder, and for cards held by general employees, the code corresponding to "1" is used to perform operations such as setting the time of the time recorder and retrieving data. For example, a code corresponding to "2" is assigned to a card owned by a person in charge of management, etc., and a code corresponding to, for example, "3" is assigned to a card owned by a person in charge of maintenance of the time recorder. .

The check code 12 determines the time Lzl by the code.
- This is a code for selecting processing items by data, and the card held by general employees has a code that allows only time registration and inquiry/response services, and the card held by management department personnel A code that enables time setting, data retrieval, or message output data setting is written on the card, and a code that allows the diagnostic program to run is written on the card held by the equipment maintenance personnel. ing.

In this way, it is possible to cancel the security function for a predetermined operator using only the check code 12, but the check code 12 and the card identification code 1
By establishing a combination with 1, the card identification code that increases the accuracy of the authenticity check of each card is searched, and the corresponding check code is compared with the check code 12 on the card to confirm the authenticity of the card. Check the gender.

If the card identification code 11 is, for example, "2" or "3"
'', in particular, enter a registered PIN code other than the codes listed above, and use this to unlock certain security functions only for users whose legitimacy has been confirmed. In this case, the password code can be entered by, for example, assigning a specific number to the key switch of the key operation section 5, and
If input is performed using the combination of the pressing order, there is no need to provide a special keyboard.

(g1 Effects of the Invention According to the present invention, it is possible to maintain security for a time recorder without using a conventional key, and it not only has the effect of realizing a smaller size and lower cost of the device. By changing the card identification code and check code on the ID card and the time recorder's internal processing program, it is possible to flexibly change, subdivide, integrate, etc. the security functions.
