These systems remain in use in industrial facilities, warehouses, campuses, and other environments where dependable mechanical verification is preferred.

Detex watchman clocks operate using a straightforward principle. A security officer carries the clock during patrol rounds and records visits at designated stations throughout the property. The resulting record provides clear documentation that required inspections were completed, helping reduce risks associated with fire, vandalism, and unattended facilities. Because the system produces a physical record that is difficult to alter, it has long been accepted as a reliable form of patrol accountability.

The PR600 provides dependable time stamping and verification capabilities while maintaining ease of operation and low ongoing maintenance requirements. This makes it particularly suitable for smaller facilities or applications where budget considerations are important but reliable documentation is still required.
