them at the terminal (if enabled).

Wall Mounting
Warning! Before selecting a mounting location for your MTX-30P Push Terminal, you
must consider the following:
The mounting surface and hardware must be able to support the unit’s weight, 1.35
lbs. (0.61kg).
The area must be within the specified operating temperature & humidity range (see
Specifications on page 27).
The MTX-30P Push proximity card terminal should be mounted in an
environment that avoids the following conditions:
X Heat Source –Direct Sunlight and Humidity
X Rain Water
X Strong Vibration and Shock
X Dust, Corrosive Gas, Steam and Salt Damage
Close proximity to a wall outlet (6 ft.)
If using Ethernet, close proximity to an Ethernet connection (6 ft.) or if connecting via
WiFi check the location for a good signal.
Amano recommends the following wall mounting procedure:
1. Set the MTX-30P Push terminal face up on a flat surface to avoid scratches on display.
2. Using the mounting bracket as a guide, mark the location of the upper and lower
mounting holes on the wall. It is recommended to mount the terminal 49.2” from the
floor to the bottom of the bracket. *Adjust for staff height as necessary.
Note: Pay attention to the orientation. The back plate should only be mounted one-way as it is
keyed to fit into the back of the proximity card reader.

the two metal tabs are on top.
6. Plug in power connector and Ethernet cable (if using Ethernet) into the terminal. Also
connect signal wiring if applicable.
7. Slide the terminal onto the two tabs located at the top of the back plate. Secure
the reader to the back plate by inserting and tightening the screw located at the
bottom of the unit.

Startup
MTX-30P Push Startup AMANO Screen (Power On)
Once the terminal is wall mounted and the communication connections have been made,
connect the terminal to AC power and proceed on to setup and enroll users.
To start-up, perform the following: Ensure theAC Power Adapter is connected to the MTX-
30P Push terminal and plugged into an outlet. The MTX-30P Push terminal will display the
splash screen, perform a diagnostic check, and then display the Welcome screen.
Note: The time and date can be set with the terminal keypad, or downloaded to the terminal from the
host PC or cloud utilizing Time Guardian software. The information such as date, time, daylight saving
time (DST), proximity card templates, and hours worked sent from Time Guardian software will have
precedence over existing similar information. That is to say Time Guardian software will act as the
master/source.
Upon power up, the Green LED indicator will blink once every second to signify the terminal
is operating properly.
All normal time and attendance functions (validation for punch in/out) must be performed from
the Welcome screen.
Press the power On/Off button to shut down the MTX-30P Push proximity card terminal
and display "halting system….Shutdown 2 secs, 1sec". The MTX-30P Push terminal will
retain all templates and transactions while the power is off.
