Pairing a Tablet as Kiosk or Station with the Site Code
How to pair a new tablet with a location to use it as a Kiosk or Station for staff clocking.
Before it can be used for clocking, a tablet must be paired with a specific location through a dedicated code. This procedure ensures that every clock event is always tied to the correct location.
Generating the site code
From the location settings, an administrator generates a temporary pairing code. The code is valid for a limited time and must be entered only on the device that will become the Kiosk or Station for that location.
Pairing the device
On the tablet, open the Kiosk/Station app and enter the received site code. Once paired, the device shows the person selection screen and stays assigned to that location until manually unpaired.
You can have multiple Kiosk or Station devices active at the same location, for example one in the kitchen and one in the dining room, all paired with the same site code or with separately generated codes.
- Time-limited pairing code
- One device per location, multiple devices possible per location
- Device status visible from settings
Replacing or deactivating a device
If a tablet is replaced or lost, it must be unpaired from the location settings: this immediately stops the ability to clock from that device, even if it remains physically powered on.

Passaggi
- Open the location settings as an administrator
- Generate a new pairing code
- On the tablet, open the Kiosk/Station app
- Enter the received site code
- Confirm the person selection screen appears
- Place the device in a stable, accessible spot at the location
Problemi frequenti
- The site code is expired → the validity time has elapsed → generate a new code from the settings
- The paired device does not appear among active ones → initial sync did not complete → check the tablet’s internet connection and retry
- Two devices show different data at the same location → one of them is still paired with the wrong location → check the device list per location in settings
- An old tablet can still clock in → it was not properly unpaired after replacement → explicitly deactivate it from the location settings
Domande frequenti
Can I have multiple Kiosks at the same location?
Yes, you can pair several devices with the same location, for example to separate kitchen and dining room.
Can the site code be reused?
No, each code has a limited validity for security reasons: generate a new one for each pairing.
What should I do if I replace a tablet?
Unpair the old device from the location settings and pair the new one with a specifically generated code.
Can the tablet be used for other functions besides clocking?
Yes, if configured as a Station it can also be used for other departmental operational tasks supported by the app.
