and sends the following Hotel/Motel information to a customer's PMS
computer through the LAN.
•
Maid and room status

Property Management System Messages
A PMS message is a string of ASCII text characters.
For example, to light a message waiting lamp for guest room extension
number 2129, the customer's PMS computer will send a string of ASCII
keyboard commands to the PMS interface.
The PMS message sent is:
^B
MW 1 2129^C
When the PBX's PMS interface receives and understands the message, it
will send an ACKnowledge character back to the customer's PMS
computer.
