All the time data of selected (checked) terminals will be downloaded and saved to the specified path. For flexible purposes, TRU also allows to download the highlighted one or specified terminals. To do this, click the button menu of    button, then click [Highlighted Time Recorder] or [Checked Time Recorder(s)].
32       Scheduling: By using Scheduling, you can schedule any time to download the time data. Scheduling starts each time you start the TRU program and is able to run in the background. With Scheduling, you can schedule a time to download time data daily, weekly, monthly, or at certain times. To configure the scheduled time, from [Tools] menu, click [Options]. On the [Options] window, click [Schedule] tab.  To enable the Scheduling function, select the Type to Schedule. First, select the [Schedule Task] for days period of scheduling, and then click [Time Table] to edit the specified times of downloading time data.  After completing the scheduling configuration, click [OK] to activate the settings.
33  5.3.4  Language Editor The Language Editor provides a way to localize the interface of TRU. You can use this function to create a new native language interface, which is translated from the default used English. The translation needs to be done on your own. For example, for Italian, the “Name” translates to “Nome”. To launch the Language Editor dialog, on the Tools menu, click Language Editor.  Shown below is the screenshot of Language Editor dialog.  This dialog has the following area and controls:  Language list box: Displays current supported languages.  Edit button: Modifies the string table of selected language.  Add button: Adds a new language.  Delete button: Deletes the selected language. Please take note, the English and current applied language can’t not be deleted.  Apply button: Applies the selected language to be the TRU interface used.  Close button: Closes Language Editor dialog.
34  5.3.4.1 Adding New Language In the Add New Language dialog, enter new language name.  Click OK to save the setting, the new language name will appear in the list box.  The next step is to edit the string table for the new language, please refer to Editing String Table. 5.3.4.2 Editing String Table All the string used in the interface of TRU is stored in the StringList table of Res.mdb file (MS Access 2000 format). This file is located in the installation path of TRU. Every language has its own column in StringList table, when adding a new language, TRU will create a column in this table, and the column name is same to the language name. Shown below is the screenshot of Edit the Language Settings dialog.
35   This dialog has following areas and controls:  Font area: TRU will give a default font name and size for the new language. If your native language has issue on this setting, please click Select to modify to meet your need.   Select button: Sets the font settings used in TRU interface.  String area: There is a String Table grid displaying two columns. The first column is always to be English, which is read-only, displays all the string used in interface of the TRU program. The second column is the selected language (or your native language). Comparing with string in English column, translate and enter your native language in the cell of second column. When switching the focus of cell, the enter value will be saved to Res.mdb database file immediately.  Close button: Close this dialog.
36  5.3.4.3 Applying Language After clicking Apply button of Language Editor dialog, TRU will re-load the string in selected language from the Res.mdb, and then displays the changes to the interface. If there is string leave blank in the string table of applied language, TRU will use English string instead. 5.3.4.4 Notes ※Some string may include Enter key, you can enlarge the height of the cell to see the whole content of string. ※If string includes Enter key, using [Ctrl]-[Enter] compound keys to entry the Enter key. ※The ‘&’ symbol is a hotkey operator. &File means the hotkey is F, &Save means the hotkey is S. ※If you want to put the new completed language in the setup file of TRU, then the file Res.mdb is needed for packaging. Please contact your dealer’s salesman for details. 5.3.5  Maintain Database From time to time, it is important for the TRU database to be backed up, purged and compacted. The frequency at which these tasks are performed depend on the size of your time data and the speed at which the TRU database file is growing. Before we continue, read the definitions of each action that can be performed on the TRU database:  Backup Database – This function makes an copy of the TRU database as of the time the function is executed. This is very useful for keeping a copy of your data file in case of a disaster. It should be performed on a weekly basis or even more frequently if the data in TRU is extremely important. This method of backup should not take the place of a normal daily tape backup.  Restore Database – This function can be used to import the backup database. Please keep in mind; the current database settings will be overwritten by the imported database.  Compact Database – To increase performance, when records are deleted from the TRU database, they are not permanently deleted. However, when many deleted records accumulate in the TRU database, it can hinder performance. To permanently remove deleted records (and therefore reduce the size of the database and increase performance) 'Compacting' the database is recommended on a monthly or semi-monthly basis. A good indication of when you should clear time data is when TRU performance seems to have slowed considerably due to the increase in file size (usually well over 10MB). If reporting is taking much longer than it used to, it might be time to clear time data. All the database maintenances are all running under Normal Mode.
37   5.3.5.1 Backup Database To backup data, follow these instructions:  From Tools menu, click Database Utility/Backup Database.    You will be asked to give a path name for the copy of the database.   Enter a valid path name and click OK.   5.3.5.2 Restore Database To restore database, follow these instructions:  From Tools menu, click Database Utility/Restore Database.    You will be given a warning. Read the warning and click Yes if you wish to continue.    Specify the path that the backup database is located.    Click Open if you are certain you want to continue.   5.3.5.3 Compact Database To compact the database, follow these instructions:  From Tools menu, click Database Utility/Compact Database. 5.3.6  Loading TR320 Manager Software TR320 Manager Software is mainly used to establish the users and messages information.
