Productivity Tracker Example
In a manufacturing environment the stations would collect user information from various workers
throughout the day. At the end of the day, the text files from each station would be imported into an
application such as MS Access. The Access application macros could calculate and report on User time
durations between events on a given station as well as time durations between stations as a way to
measure productivity.
For the setting above the following is key stroked at the location of the cursor:
QA-Station, 10-15-2003, 17:55:11, CardData, EndOfRecord
Where
“
CardData” is the information read from the iCLASS card.
Insert in Front of Card Information
The settings in this section describe what data is inserted as keystrokes, to the data read from the user’s
iCLASS card.
Delimiter:
The user can choose delimiters: None, Comma, or Tab. The delimiter is inserted after each field or
date/time stamp.
Station Label
The user may type in any identifier. The first information key stroked is the Station Label.
Date Stamp Time Stamp
These fields are inserted after the Station Label.
<CR> <LF> <TAB>
Use these check boxes to add these keystrokes before the card information is read.
Card Information Read from Location
The following fields describe the precise location of the iCLASS card’s memory that will be read and key
stroked. The information may be records into the card using the “Contactless Read/Write” Tab of this
application. The user is free to add any ASCII characters. For example to add a LineFeed, hold the ALT
key and press 010.
The following fields refer to the same fields described in the “Contactless Read/Write” Tab above.
