Note : The 12th parameter group means the time when the clock will move the print head to the position where the first column of the card is when placed in the card slot. By default, the time is set as 00:00 and it is not necessary to change it unless the schedule is three shifts, in which case the 12th parameter should be set as a time between the quitting time of the last work shift and the starting time of the first work shift. 32nd parameter group: Card Side Detection. There are only two parameters available: 00:00 (Disable detection) and 00:01 (Enable detection).

Note : From the 6th group to 11th group and the 25th group to 30th group are all alarm groups, so the configuration steps are the same. -
