How easy is it to see the time card through the smoky plastic 'window'?

It does light up and has an arrow. It seems a bit of a challenge at first but we find it works well.

You would need separate time clock software in order to do that. Not to say that it can't be done it just is not intended for that out of the box. It is intended to replace usernames/passwords for logging into windows and other applications.

There's a small button on the right that lets you choose between a bright back light, a dim back light or no back light. Even the dim is too bright for me. I turn it off but then have no way to see the time.

Not that I recall. I got this for my 89-year-old mom and she says it works well, allowing her to see what time it is when she awakes at night. She can read it across the room without her glasses. I haven't seen the clock myself as she lives in another city.

install a Micro SD card in the slot on the right side. (contact points will face toward the face of the clock and push in until the spring-load catches). It will take up to 32gb in size. Plug it in to power. I am using my Kindle adapter and the supplied usb cord. Switch the clock's power to ON position. Use remote control to also Power On, then select the motion-detect button on the remote and click it. You should get 3 blinks of the blue light, then it turns off. It is in stand by mode and will start recording 3 minute segments when it detects movement. You will get a red light solidly on with the blue light solidly on when the card is full. At this point, plug into your PC USB slot and it will mount as an external device. The videos are in a DCIM folder. I was not able to get it to erase the card on my Mac but it will on my PC and the software it came with is hopelessly out of date and doesn't recognize the driver. I am getting fairly good quality images and it even records in the dark. It is a decent device for the price. The battery is useless so I just keep it plugged in all of the time. I broke off the little swing door thing.

less than 1 min can be seen. It would be a guess as to how many seconds. It's a great clock.

After you select video from the main menu, push the vol +/_ buttons simultaneously for 3 sec to get into the hidden files menu. There you can select which file to view. You can view it on the clock itself.

İf you have sd card reader you can open records easily. But you can see your records with hzz usb cable.

No, and that's why I got it. I had to replace my car's original radio/CD player, and could ONLY see its display in the dark, so I needed something I could see when the sun streams into the car. I often laugh at myself, having too "car clock" right next to each other, but I need to know what time it is as I travel, in dark or light, so this solution works for me.

I would never display the date and time in an image - ruins the picture. With digital files, each file is time/date stamped - that works best.

Apologies for the lateness of this answer, but I finally scanned something and tried to view the scan via USB. Yep, you can do it just fine without having to remove the card. Just looked at the recipe I scanned (for Shrimp Pizza, which really is a dip and not an actual pizza!) from my hometown newspaper and it looked great.

Yes you can show the pictures without the date and time. It is in the settings to change this feature

Yes, the clock will record as many entries as necessary - but keep in mind that the time card is only long enough for about 6 entries per day for 5 days.

There are solutions which are easier. I wouldn't recommend this unit for just the time card function for a beginner. The software works but not very well. One of the more time card centered products would probably be better. When I have to replace this, I will go that route rather than repurchase.

The clock is only visible when you push the Display button (only shows the time temporarily for a few seconds, then returns to displaying either the station frequency or file name of the music currently playing). The clock is 12-hour format only; there is no 24-hour standard time format available. From my experience with this unit, the built-in clock isn't extremely accurate. It's generally less than a minute off every month or so. For most people, this is good enough. Me personally, though? I'm glad the clock stays hidden by default because I have a clock mounted to my dash above the stereo.

No information is shown. There is maybe a quarter of an inch that shows on the long side, and as you can see in some of the pictures, a small cut out will show on the opposite side. I usually just put my ID on top to be extra careful. Obviously someone can tell that cards are in there, but I wouldn't worry about anyone being able to read them.

I can only see the date for a very short time by pushing the top button. Couldn't find a way to make it stay on. Let me also say that in certain lighting, the display is unreadable.
