The Omega

Overview

The Omega is our middle tier interactive data collection terminal. The two line display gives the user interactive use of the terminal to record time & attendance activity, tips, accruals, facility access control, and more. The on-screen menus allow supervisors to insert, edit, or delete activity. These same menus allow employees to view the in/out board, view their activity, and review their accrual totals. The Omega can be configured as an access control and Time & Attendance device. When not being used for access control, the Omega can also be configured to ring bells with the optional internal relay. The Omega has many methods for data entry. The Omega can be equipped with Synel proximity, barcode or magnetic stripe. The Omega also has a keypad that can be used for data collection. The Omega has four different ways to connect to the InfiniTime Labor Management System. The Omega can communicate via RS-232 (Direct to PC), RS-485 (Direct to PC) TCP/IP Ethernet (Network), Modem (Telephone). This allows the Omega to fit seamlessly into any computing environment.

How it works

User friendly interactive menus make the Omega very easy to use. The internal menu system allows users to quickly choose the activity they want to perform. From department transfers to entering tip amounts, the menu walks the user through the entire process. The same menu system allows supervisors to perform time inserts, edits, and deletes at the terminal itself. Which eliminates the need for supervisors to have a computer to do routine functions.

The Omega is capable of gathering user information in several ways. The keypad allows the user to enter a unique PIN and password or the user can use a badge. The Omega is a “swipe and go” system and users never need to select “in” or “out” during the time & attendance process.

The data collected by the Omega terminal is then sent to the InfiniTime Labor Management System. With InfiniTime detailed reports can be generated, exceptions tracked, and data passed on to payroll for check processing.

Applications

The Omega is capable of performing multiple roles in your organization. The Omega can be configured to simultaneously provide access control and time & attendance. This makes the Omega prime for a fast return on investment.

The Omega’s flexibility is premier. With four different connection methods and the four ways it collects data, the Omega fits in the infrastructure of any organization.

The Omega is a key element to the InfiniTime Labor Management system and pays for itself with the return on investment that it provides. The Omega is one of only a few business purchases that pays for itself in no time at all!!!
