Page 3-4  FPT-40 Installation & Operation Guide 
Special Note:  Selecting Holidays will only work with HandPunches 
(all HandPunch models). 
The FPT-40 terminal does not contain the capability to 
ring bells, but you may have a configuration which 
includes other terminals such as the MTX-15 or 
HandPunch that does have relays for bell ringing. 
A Bell schedule requires you to enter the Duration for the bell to ring, the 
time of day for the bell to ring and the days of the week. Multiple entries 
can be made for Bell Schedules with different duration and day 
assignments. Bell Schedules are downloaded to the selected terminals 
by location by using the Communications module in the Time & 
Attendance Software. To do so, see the next section and/or Time & 
Attendance Software User Guide for more details. 
Do you want to configure Terminals? 
Answer Yes to this question if you are using terminals such as a FPT-40 
terminal via a serial (driect) or Ethernet (network) connection. 
Direct (serial) Connection
If Yes is selected, and a Direct connection
 using the included 50 foot 
USB/serial cable is desired, you can just use the “FPT-40 Default” 
location. You do not have to do anything else. The FPT-40 terminal, if 
connected, will automatically be detected upon login. 
Note:  The default terminal connection is for a USB (serial-direct) 
FPT-40 Terminal. 
Ethernet (network) Connection
If Yes is selected, and you are installing an Ethernet connection
 for the 
FPT-40 click on the Location/Terminal 
 button 
(see Figure 3-1) and the Locations screen will appear. 
  Select “FPT-40 Default” on the General tab
 from the dropdown 
menu for Locations [recommended for easy configuration]. 
  Click on Connection tab
 to select Ethernet for Connection Type and 
enter your IP Address. The default FPT-40 Location automatically 
defines everything else for Ethernet. Click on 
 button.
