Replacing the Battery
The JobClock/EX and LE are powered by a Lithium 123 battery which will generally last you 6 months and is located behind the backplate of the unit.
- Loosen the allen screw with the included allen key on the back to allow the backplate to rotate counter-clockwise (the allen screw does not have to be fully removed). The size of allen key required is 1/16".
- With the backplate removed, the battery will be exposed. Below the battery will be a speaker. We recommend covering the speaker with your finger to muffle the speaker as inserting a working battery will trigger the JobClock to emit a loud noise. Remove the battery and insert the new battery.
- Rescrew the backplate and tighten the allen screw.
- You must collect from the JobClock with a supported device to set the current date and time. Not collecting off the JobClock after inserting the battery can cause issues with future clock ins/outs.
Turning On Bluetooth
On your JobClock hardware, activate the Bluetooth by holding your keytab to the touchplate as if you were clocking in, but continue to hold it for 5-10 seconds.
- You may hear a beep as if you are clocking in, DO NOT move your keytab.
- When you see a blue light and an audio tone, the Bluetooth has been activated. You can now pull your keytab away.
- The Bluetooth will be active for about 1 minute, then turn off automatically. As long as the blue light is on, Bluetooth is active.
