6.2 PMS (Property Management System)

Many hotels use a PMS device to perform in-room billing of services the guests use such as room service, mini-bar,
pay-per-view TV or telephone. The VSG supports PMS from Micros Fidelios. With PMS, the VSG allows
subscribers to purchase additional time units online. In addition, subscribers can select from a number of different
billing plans.
To use PMS for billing, first connect the VSG to a PMS device through the PMS port (refer to the chapter on
hardware connection), then configure the PMS settings on the VSG.

Port-Location Mapping Charge Modes

When you activate port-location mapping and PMS on the VSG, two charge modes are available: per room and per
subscriber.
Select Based on Room when location is important. If a subscriber disconnects from one location and reconnects in
another location, the VSG prompts for the user name and password again.
Select Based on Subscriber to allow a subscriber to freely move between different locations without prompting for
user name and password.
