Chapter 1: Introduction How This Manual is Organized The installation, setup and operation procedures in this manual are provided for user assistance. Chapter 1 provides general information with a brief overview of features, and benefits. Chapter 2: provides an overview of system components with step-bystep procedures for installing your TS-3000i Web Clock. Chapter 3 provides step-by-step procedures for quick startup using a Web browser.
The TS-3000i Web Clock utilizes Zero Configuration Networking (Zeroconf), a set of techniques that will automatically create a usable network IP address without configuration or special services. This allows users to connect TS-3000i’s together and expect them to work automatically. Without Zeroconf, a user must either set up special services, like Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and Domain Name System (DNS), or set up each device’s network settings manually.
During the configuration process, both the event logger and scheduler use the same supporting configuration files located in the clock. The event logger runs in the clock with a scheduler that runs in the background as a service. The TS-3000i Web Clock can optionally obtain power from a Full Power Reserve (FPR) or Power over Ethernet (PoE) (see Figure 1-1).
Optional PoE (Power over Ethernet) accessory, which includes Full Power Reserve (FPR option). Automatic time synchronization to an official time source. Event notification through Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) traps. This feature enables network administrators to centrally manage time clock performance, find problems and solve them in a timely manner. NTP (Network Time Protocol) syncs clocks to a time reference over a data network.
Time sync transaction files are automatically maintained in the TS-3000i Web Clock and can be saved to file, viewed, or printed as desired. Visible alarms on time stamp imprint and LCD display provide notification of time synchronization failure (see Figure 7-8). Provides a solution for industry sectors that require strict adherence to good time keeping practices. No server software required, which means minimal IT staff involvement and lower support costs due to streamlined setup.

TS-3000i Web Clock Installation & Operation Guide The TS-3000i Web Clock Installation & Operation Guide was designed to assist you in the daily operation of your clock and to provide you with a comprehensive understanding of the TS-3000i Web Clock.
Time Servers General Information A time server is a server computer that reads the actual time from a reference clock and distributes this information to its clients using a computer network. The time server may be a local network time server or an Internet time server. The most important and widely-used protocol for distributing and synchronizing time is the Network Time Protocol (NTP), though other less-popular or outdated time protocols continue in use.
Chapter 2: Installation TS-3000i Web Clock External View 2-1 TS-3000i Web Clock External View Components • 2 Keys (Important!! - Please store these keys in a safe place as you will need them to remove the cover). One unit with attached AC power adapter and Ethernet cable (10ft) with RJ-45 connector. • A Utility CD for the clock (copy configuration to clocks, auto discovery, reports, etc.), which also contains the Installation and Operation Guide in PDF format. Also, Quick Start Guide (printed).
Removing the Cover Insert and turn the key clockwise to remove the upper cover. Note – the upper cover must be removed to change the ribbon and access the reset button (see Chapter 7, How to Replace the Ribbon). Figure 2-2: TS-3000i Web Clock Cover Removal Unpacking the Clock After removing the upper cover, lift up the Printer Block (A) and remove the Packaging Spacer (B).
Installing the Optional FPR Step 1. Disconnect the clock AC adapter from the power outlet. Warning! – Failure to do so could result in a hazardous shock. Step 2. Insert the key, turn the key clockwise, and remove the upper cover of the TS-3000i (see Figure 2-2). Step 3. Remove one small Phillips head retaining screw from the right and left front sides of the top plate (see Figure 2-4). Figure 2-4: Top Plate Removal Step 4.
Step 5. Lift up the top plate by pulling upwards and towards the back of the clock to remove it. Temporarily set aside. Note the alignment of the top plate during removal – especially the front and rear tabs (see figure to the right). Step 6. Carefully lift the front PCB up and out of its retaining slot (see Figure 2-11). This is the PCB with the coin battery on it.
Step 8. After the FPR mounting bracket is in its proper position, return the front PCB to its original position seated in its retaining slot. In this position the top rear of the PCB will fit close alongside the FPR mounting bracket (see Figure 2-6). Figure 2-6: Front PCB & FPR Mounting Bracket in Position Step 9. Install the two plastic rivets (1 per each side) as illustrated in Figure 2-7 through the side of the clock frame into the proper locating hole in the FPR mounting bracket (see Figure 2-5).
Step 10. With the FPR battery pack in the holder alongside the network RJ-45 connector, plug in the FPR battery cable (the connector with the black and red wires) into the open brown connector (see Figure 2-8) located just under the battery pack on the PCB at CN4. Figure 2-8: Rear View Showing Cable/Connector Location Note – For units with the FPR option, disconnect the FPR battery pack cable connector if the TS-3000i clock will not be plugged into AC power for an extended amount of time.
Step 11. Carefully reinstall the top plate by first inserting the rear tabs into the appropriate rear notches, making sure the rear centering tab is in its notch. Then push the plate forward (see righthand figure) while properly aligning the top plate sides and front. Finally push the top plate downward to lock it firmly into position with the front tabs (see Figure 2-9). Figure 2-9: Top Plate Installed Step 12.
Note – After installing the FPR and connecting the unit to AC power for the first time, allow it to charge the battery pack for 24 hours before printing. Failure to do so may result in reduced battery life. When using the optional FPR - keep the clock plugged into an AC power source during normal operation to maintain an adequate charge. The power reserve battery is designed to be used only during limited power outages, not as a power source during normal operation.
Figure 2-10: PoE/FPR & Mounting Bracket Step 8. Install the two plastic rivets (1 per each side) through the main clock frame into the locating holes as illustrated in Figure 2-10 to help align and secure the mounting bracket. Figure 2-11: Front PCB & Mounting Bracket Step 9. Remove the rear wall mounting plate (see Wall Mounting). Disconnect the AC power connector from the PCB (red & white wires – see Figure 2-12).
Figure 2-12: Rear View Showing AC Power Line For Removal Step 10. Unscrew the Phillips head screw and remove the black ground wire for the AC line (see Figure 2-12). Remove the AC power line from the back of the clock with the transformer at the end. You may have to cut a couple of plastic wire ties to do this. Step 11. Reinstall the wall mounting plate (see figure below) on the back of the clock using caution to verify that the Ethernet cable is properly routed.
Step 12. Plug in the FPR battery pack cable (the connector with the black and red wires) into the small open connector (see Figure 2-13) located just under the battery pack on the PCB. Next, plug in the PoE connector to the left of the FPR connector for the PoE cable (yellow wires). It is keyed and can only fit into the connector one way. The connection for the PoE cable has a 5-pin connector on the main PCB and a 5-pin connector at the PoE PCB. Both connector ends are keyed (can only fit in one way).
Step 14. Insert the Ethernet connector through the hole in the rear of the top plate into the RJ-45 network connector (previously disconnected in Step 4). Figure 2-14: PoE & FPR Connectors Step 15. Insert and tighten the two (2) top plate side retaining screws (one on each side). Step 16. Replace the upper cover of the TS-3000i (see Figure 2-2). Step 17. Connect the clock Ethernet cable to a network connection (AC power no longer required when equipped with the PoE option).
Note – For units with the PoE/FPR option, leaving the TS-3000i clock unplugged from a PoE terminal or without power for more than 24 hours may create a problem with the clock starting up (you will see “low bat” briefly appear in the display). In this instance, the clock should be started with the battery pack cable disconnected and the clock plugged into a PoE terminal. Wait until the clock starts up, or displays the time, then the battery pack cable can be reconnected and it will charge.
Wall Mounting Amano recommends the following procedure for wall mounting: Step 1. With the cover removed, the wall mount plate can be removed by using your index finger as shown to pry open the bottom portion (see arrow 1). Slide the wall mount plate down in the direction of arrow 2. Use caution not to disrupt the power and Ethernet cables on the back when removing the wall mount plate. Step 2. Knock out the three holes in the mounting plate. Step 3.
The First Printout Please verify the following before attempting to print: Step 1. Is all the packaging material removed from inside the clock? Step 2. Is the FPR battery connected? (optional) Step 3. Is the cover securely on the clock? Step 4. Is the TS-3000i Web Clock connected to a network connection (Ethernet RJ-45)? This step is not required to perform a test printout when first installing the TS-3000i Web Clock. Step 5.

Chapter 4: TS-3000i Operation General Information After the TS-3000i Web clock has been unpacked, wall mounted (optional), connected to a network, and plugged into AC power, the Zeroconf capability should allow the clock to be automatically detected with a Web browser. Amano recommends to install and use the TS3000i Utility that came on the CD included with your TS-3000i clock if: Your browser does not support the Bonjour plug-in, or you do not want to install Bonjour.
Bonjour, formerly Rendezvous, is Apple Inc.'s trade name for its implementation of Zeroconf, a service discovery protocol. Bonjour locates devices such as the TS-3000i Web Clock, printers, copiers, and other computers, with the services that those devices offer on a local network using multicast Domain Name System service records. The software is built into Apple's Mac OS X operating system from version 10.2 onwards, and can be installed onto computers using Microsoft Windows operating systems.
Note – If Bonjour is not desired or available for your network use, Amano recommends using the TS-3000i Utility that came with your clock to perform the Zeroconf function for discovery. TS-3000i Web Interface TS-3000i Web Page After logging onto the TS-3000i TimeSync Web Clock, the clock name and assigned IP will appear in the Web page title (see Figure 4-1).

How to Setup Time Synchronization Schedules At a pre-determined time of the day and day of the week, the TS-3000i Web Clock can be set to confirm or validate that a time/date synchronization signal has been received. This is called time synchronization or “Signal Validation". The clock has two default Time Sync schedules called “Before Trading” and “After Trading” to ensure that time validation automatically occurs using default settings with no user intervention.
Important – Care must be exercised when setting up Time Sync schedules because a maximum of 8 separate Time Sync schedules can be set up. Each of these 8 schedules could be enabled and have up to a maximum of 12 scheduled time syncs per day. The flash memory in the clock is capable of retaining up to 5 years worth of data created as per OATS Rule 7430 which requires 2 Time Syncs per day.
If Weekly is selected, then define Run Every: “X” week(s) and check the days to sync (check box for each day or check box for All). The default for days = 1, Minimum = 1, and Maximum = 365. The default for minutes = 120, Minimum = 120, and Maximum = 1439 The default for weeks = 1, Minimum = 1, and Maximum = 52. Frequency Settings used to define contents of a scheduled Report file and the scheduled Backup Transaction file. Figure 4-21: Schedule Settings Step 8.
How to Setup Report Schedules At a pre-determined time of the day and day of the week, the TS-3000i Web Clock can be set to send a transaction report file to a designated FTP site (path). These transaction report files are controlled by setting up schedules as previously described in the Schedules procedure. Note – You must define an FTP server for the Backup and Restore Utility to properly function.
And so on with a maximum of 52 weeks. Both the binary and text files created during a scheduled Backup will have the last 6 digits of the clocks unique MAC Address in the filename. How to Setup Backup Schedules At a pre-determined time of the day and day of the week, the TS-3000i Web Clock can be set to send a Backup file of the entire transaction database to a designated FTP site (path).
Utility Settings for FTP Server The TS-3000i Web Clock can backup and/or restore the configuration and time sync transaction database. The clock utilities can also be used to view transaction report files for a user defined period of time. It is important to set up an FTP server as described in the following procedure so these files can be saved. Step 1. Click on the Settings link under Utilities and the Utility Settings screen for FTP will appear (see Figure 4-22). Step 2.
Step 7. If the FTP connection is OK, press the the FTP settings. button to store Performing Backup and Restore The TS-3000i Web Clock has a built in utility that can be used to Backup and/or Restore the clock configuration and transaction files. Please consult Chapter 5 for details on how to use the TS-3000i Utility to simultaneously update the configuration of multiple clocks using a shared configuration config.bin file which was created from a shared backup procedure.
Step 4. Click on the button to perform the Backup and the status will appear once the operation has been completed. The transaction file will be stored at the same location (path) previously entered for the FTP Server (see Figure 4-22). The configuration file will also be stored in the same location but in a binary format with a filename which correlates to the clock and ending in “_ATVSConfig.bin”.
Figure 4-25: FTP Server Configuration & Transaction Files To restore a Configuration & Transaction file in the clock: Step 1. From the Backup/Restore link under Utilities, click on the Restore tab to perform a restore for the TS-3000i (see Figure 4-26). Step 2. Click on the drop down menu to select the type of data you want to restore. The choices are: Configuration, Transaction, or Both. Step 3.
Figure 4-26: Restore Utility Step 4. Click on the button to perform the file restoration in the clock and the restoration status will be displayed once the operation has been completed, i.e., “Successfully restored configuration from file 36-b04d_ATVSConfig.bin.” Note – The restore utility is recommended to be used when the clock has been reset to factory default settings. It can also be used to copy the configuration settings from one clock to a single clock.
Reports Utility The TS-3000i Web Clock has a built in flash memory, which stores time synchronization transactions. The transaction report settings can be used to view and/or save a report file based on the filter criteria defined on the Settings screen to a text file on an FTP Server. The key function occurring here is the creation of filter criteria for transaction reports that can be viewed and/or saved to a text formatted file.
Step 4. Select the Date Selection for the transaction report data from the dropdown menu. If Date Range is selected you must enter the Start & End Date and Time for the range by using the drop down menus. The date choices are; Today, Current Week, Current Month, and Date Range (default = Today). Step 5. Click on the Step 6. Click on the View Transactions tab to view the transactions based upon the previously defined and saved settings (see Figure 4-28).

Upon power up, the TS-3000i will automatically attempt to sync with the first enabled and available time server.
Note – The display will only show 25 transactions. Click the or buttons to move backward or forward 25 transactions in the display. When the transaction file is saved as a file, the filename will end in “_rpt” (see Figure 4-24 for an example of a transaction file). If a transaction file has to be restored, the only file used will be the Backup transaction file. Step 7. Press the button to save the Transaction Report as a text file on a FTP Server.
Chapter 5: TS-3000i Utility Getting Started Amano recommends that you install the TS-3000i Utility for ease-of-use to discover and connect to your TS-3000i clock(s). This utility eliminates the need of having to use Bonjour with your browser, which for Internet Explorer might require that you download and/or install the Bonjour plug-in.
Note – The following Setup Maintenance screen (see Figure 5-2) only appears if you already have the TS-3000i Utility installed on your PC. The Setup Maintenance program allows you to Modify, Repair, and Remove the program. In most instances you probably will not see this screen. Figure 5-2: Setup Maintenance Step 3. When the “InstallShield Wizard Complete” screen appears, click on the Finish button to end installation and launch the utility, if checked (see Figure 5-3).
Using the TS-3000i Utility The following procedures discuss how to use the TS-3000i Utility. The main function of this utility is simple location (discovery) and connection to a TS-3000i clock (see Chapter 4 of this Guide for more details on clock configuration utilizing a browser). However, this utility can also be used to: Create a centralized transaction report for multiple TS-3000i clocks using all the transaction data or a selected data range.
If the Utility fails to discover the clock(s), or you need to change settings, proceed to Step 2. Note – The TS-3000i default domain = local and the default Device Name = ts-3000i_ plus the clocks MAC address (i.e., ts-3000i_00:00:00:00:00:00). In computer networking, a Media Access Control address (MAC address), is a quasiunique identifier assigned to most network adapters or network interface cards (NICs) by the manufacturer (Amano) for identification.
After entering Discovery Settings, click on red arrow to include the domain, select domains, and then click Auto discovery tab to search. Figure 5-5: Utility Settings Once these changes have been made, click on the Auto Discovery tab to return to that screen, and click the Start button to begin the search again with the new Discovery discovery settings to generate a list of located clocks.

Chapter 8: WAN Service Discovery This chapter discusses special issues that might be related to configuring the TS-3000i for Wide Area Network (WAN) service discovery. Wide Area Service Discovery “Wide Area Service Discovery” is the expansion of mDNS protocol, which allows the devices to register their services in the companywide DNS server so they can be discovered across the subnets.
Wide Area Service Discovery Setup The default factory setting on the TS-3000i clock is “Local Area Service Discovery” so that clocks on network1 can only be discovered and managed from the PC connected to network1. To configure the clock for Wide Area Service Discovery: Step 1. Setup your DNS server to update non-secure dynamic updates. Make sure the firewall is not blocking UDP port 53 on the DNS server. Step 2.
Wide Area Clock Discovery If the TS-3000i clocks are configured for Wide Area Service Discovery, they can be discovered and managed remotely from any PC connected to the Wide Area Network. To discover and manage the clocks, use the following procedure: Step 1. Install and open the TS-3000i Utility that came on the CD included with the clock. The default factory setting on the utility is to discover the clocks in a Local Area Network. Step 2.
Step 5. Click on the Auto Discovery tab to return to that screen, and button to begin the search click on the Start Discovery again with the new settings to generate a new list of discovered clocks. To stop auto discovery, simply click on the End Discovery button. Searching for the clocks will automatically timeout. Step 6. From the list of discovered clocks, double click the clock that you want to manage and your web browser will open to the clock’s web login page.
