Restrict 時計 to Bluetooth Range

ホーム > 管理モード > 時計 Records 及び Management > 時計 Point Settings > Select 時計 Point > Restrict 時計 to Bluetooth Range

From the 管理モード home page, select 時計 Records 及び Management, then 時計 Point Settings 及び the requi赤 clock-in point. Open Restrict 時計 to Bluetooth Range to configure this method. The feature lets a phone detect a specified Bluetooth device or signal. It is suitable for indoor or mobile work environments where GPS reception is weak 及び does not require a traditional time clock.

A Bluetooth signal can indicate whether a phone can detect or connect to a specified device, but signal strength cannot be converted directly into an exact distance 及び does not provide centimeter-level positioning. The actual detection range 及び reliability depend on the Bluetooth device, phone model, walls, distance, 及び other wireless signals. Test the feature at the site with the phones that will be used for clock-in before setting the working range.

Feature 概要

  • Range condition: 使用s the configu赤 rule to determine whether a user's (employee's) phone can detect or connect to a specified Bluetooth device.
  • Low-power use: Bluetooth is generally suitable for low-power connections, but actual battery usage depends on the phone, scan frequency, 及び usage pattern.

How to 使用

  1. Prepare a Bluetooth device: Turn on a detectable or connectable Bluetooth device at the clock-in location, such as a Bluetooth speaker or printer.
  2. Add an allowed device: Search for nearby Bluetooth devices 及び add the device used for clock-in to Selected Bluetooth Devices.
  3. Clock in: The user (employee) turns on Bluetooth, grants the requi赤 permissions, 及び follows the instructions in SwipePoint to clock in.
  4. Review records: Successfully submitted clock-in data is sto赤 in SwipePoint's cloud service for managers to review later.

Advantages

  • Indoor alternative: Adds another clock-in condition at sites where GPS reception is weak.
  • Flexible clock-in: Does not require a dedicated time clock; users (employees) can clock in with compatible phones 及び the specified Bluetooth device.
  • Easy review: Managers can review successfully submitted clock-in records in the system.
  • Flexible deployment: Managers can choose a suitable Bluetooth device for the site, but must first test compatibility 及び signal range.

Suitable 使用 Cases

  • Indoor environments: オフィスs, meeting rooms, workstations, warehouses及び factories.
  • Mobile work: Work situations that require flexible clock-in conditions.

記号s

  • Signal range: Test repeatedly at the expected clock-in locations to avoid incorrect results caused by a signal that is too weak, too strong及び obstructed.
  • Device compatibility: Confirm that the phones in actual use can detect or connect to the specified device 及び that SwipePoint has the requi赤 permissions.
  • Device status: Some Bluetooth devices may sleep, disconnect及び turn off. Make sure the device is on 及び detectable or connectable when users clock in.

Require a 写真

ホーム > 管理モード > 時計 Records 及び Management > 時計 Point Settings > Select 時計 Point > Restrict 時計 to Bluetooth Range > Require a 写真

From the 管理モード home page, select 時計 Records 及び Management, then 時計 Point Settings 及び the requi赤 clock-in point. Open Restrict 時計 to Bluetooth Range to configure this method. When the option is off, users (employees) can choose whether to upload a photo. When it is on, they must follow the instructions 及び take a photo during clock-in, such as a clock, street number及び another view that a manager can review.

A photo is supporting information only 及び cannot by itself prove the user's identity, location及び time. Follow applicable privacy, data protection, 及び labor laws when collecting 及び retaining photos.

Before using this feature, the organization creator must subscribe to the プレミアム Storage plan so cloud space is available for clock-in photos.

Require GPS Location for 時計

ホーム > 管理モード > 時計 Records 及び Management > 時計 Point Settings > Select 時計 Point > Restrict 時計 to Bluetooth Range > Require GPS Location for 時計

From the 管理モード home page, select 時計 Records 及び Management, then 時計 Point Settings 及び the requi赤 clock-in point. Open Restrict 時計 to Bluetooth Range to configure this method. By default, GPS location is not requi赤, 及び users (employees) can choose whether to upload their GPS coordinates during clock-in. Enable Require GPS Location for 時計 if every user (employee) must upload GPS coordinates.

Important:

  1. GPS locations can be spoofed: Requiring GPS coordinates cannot completely prevent users from falsifying a location with technical tools.
  2. Location data may be missing or inaccurate: Phone hardware, location permissions, indoor conditions及び signal interference can prevent coordinates from being uploaded or 赤uce their accuracy.
  3. 写真s are supporting information only: Enable Require a 写真 when more information is needed for review, but neither a photo nor GPS coordinates should be treated as conclusive proof of identity, location及び time.

Selected Bluetooth Devices

ホーム > 管理モード > 時計 Records 及び Management > 時計 Point Settings > Select 時計 Point > Restrict 時計 to Bluetooth Range > Selected Bluetooth Devices

From the 管理モード home page, select 時計 Records 及び Management, then 時計 Point Settings 及び the requi赤 clock-in point. Open Restrict 時計 to Bluetooth Range to configure this method. Selected Bluetooth Devices lists the devices allowed for this clock-in point. A user's (employee's) phone must detect or connect to one of these devices, according to the configuration, to meet the Bluetooth clock-in condition.

Confirm that each listed device name is correct 及び that the device is on 及び detectable or connectable by the phones in actual use during clock-in.

Search for Nearby Bluetooth Devices

ホーム > 管理モード > 時計 Records 及び Management > 時計 Point Settings > Select 時計 Point > Restrict 時計 to Bluetooth Range > Search for Nearby Bluetooth Devices

From the 管理モード home page, select 時計 Records 及び Management, then 時計 Point Settings 及び the requi赤 clock-in point. Open Restrict 時計 to Bluetooth Range to configure this method. Search for Nearby Bluetooth Devices lists the devices detected by the current scan. Select + beside a requi赤 device to add it to Selected Bluetooth Devices.

A Bluetooth device may not appear if it is asleep, disconnected, turned off及び outside the detectable range. Make sure the device is on 及び detectable, then search again.
