System Description
Up to four mlOOm terminals can access the Hotel/Motel feature package
simultaneously.The VT100 terminal can access more Hotel/Motel features than the
attendant console. For instance, using a ~7OO-compatible terminal to input guest
information gives the ability to enter alphanumeric characters (such as a guest name)
and allows more information to be displayed at once. A terminal interface provides a
low-cost alternative to a property management system (PMS) by providing faster
access to information but no room billing. The terminal provides no telephony function.
Telephone activities must be performed through the attendant console or some other
telephony device.
Access Mechanism.
When the Hotel/Motel feature package is running on a front desk
terminal, there are four modes of operation: house statistics, search by room or name,
room updates, and audits.
House statistics.
After successful login using a password, a house statistics screen
appears, It contains a snapshot of the current status of the guest rooms or gives the
time that the last statistics have been calculated (or when the REFRESH softkey is
pressed). The information is only updated when the screen is entered. The house
statistics screen is the only entry point when logging on to the application. It is also the
only point the application can be exited from. Five softkeys give access to the other
modes of operation. A sixth softkey is used to recalculate totals. See Figure 2-9.
