Visionline для отелей инструкция по применению

Знаете ли вы,
что…

… архитектурное бюро Sibarite разрабатывает проект острова-гостиницы Apeiron общей площадью в 200.000 квадратных метров. Предполагается, что 350 люкс-номеров будут обслуживать вертолеты и у каждого жильца будет собственная яхта. Гостям отеля будут доступны частные пляжи, рестораны, галереи, магазины, кинотеатры и бассейны. Цена «райского» проекта составит около 500 миллионов долларов.

… Clarion Congress Hotel Prague стал самым большим отелем бренда Clarion во всем мире. В нем 559 номеров и множество помещений для проведения конгрессов и семинаров.

… новый отель Hyatt в Абу-Даби войдет в Книгу Рекордов Гиннесса как «башня с самым большим наклоном». Наклон здания будет в 4 раза больше, чем наклон Пизанской Башни.

… израильским учёным удалось оживить штамм дрожжей, которому 5000 лет, и сварить из него пиво. Оно оказалось вполне достойным на вкус.

… первый в мире электронный гостиничный сейф был изобретён в 1979 году фирмой Elsafe. C этого момента сейфы с металлическими ключами потеряли свою привлекательность из-за ненадёжности и высоких затрат на обслуживание.

… 45% россиян ничего не берут из номера отеля в качестве сувенира. 74 респондента из 7434 опрошенных признались, что в номерах гостиниц они нередко оставляют что-то свое.

… на Мальдивских островах открыли первый в мире роскошный курорт-изолятор для туристов, помещенных в карантин из-за коронавируса. В его составе — 30 номеров с замкнутой системой вентилирования и очистки воздуха, трехразовым питанием (исключительно по принципу room service), большим ЖК-телевизором и укомплектованным мини-баром.

… в стране восходящего солнца ученые создали два новых сорта риса — да не простых, а «золотых».

Они имеют полезные свойства — один из сортов подойдет аллергикам, так как он останавливает выработку гистамина, поэтому организм реагирует на такие аллергены, как всевозможная пыльца, более спокойно, чем раньше; другой сорт риса не поглощает в себя вредные химические вещества, присутствующие в почве, и нейтрализует опасные элементы, привнесенные в неё химикатами.

… в список самых дорогих десертов попали только два американских десерта. Один из них трюфель Knipschildt Chocolatier’s за 250$ и мусс за 50$, подаваемый в нью-йоркском отеле Waldorf-Astoria.

… по данным Госкомстата на конец 2007 в России работало 4 369 гостиниц на 186,7 тыс. номеров и 368,3 тыс. мест. Из них, по оценкам экспертов Jones Lang LaSalle и Colliers International, только около 14 тыс. номеров соответствуют современным гостиничным стандартам. На 1000 человек населения России приходится почти 1,5 номера. Только 34 гостиницы в стране сертифицированы на 5*, 140 гостиниц имеют категорию 4*, 281 гостиница — 3* и 181 – категорию 1*-2*.

… в Ritz-Carlton Tokyo находится самый дорогой в Японии президентский номер люкс стоимостью $20 000 за ночь; кроме того, в баре отеля гости могут заказать бокал мартини стоимостью $16 000 c бриллиантом Bvlgari на дне. Также к услугам постояльцев бизнес-центр, два бассейна, spa-салон и сигарный клуб.

… в центре Праги в бывшем министерстве внутренних дел, расположенном на площади Республики, откроют пятизвездочный отель King’s Court. Перед открытием отеля зданию, в котором он будет располагаться, придется пережить множество изменений: его полностью перестроят. Надо отметить, что на месте здания в средние века находились королевские палаты, откуда и появилось название будущего отеля.

… характерная особенность американских мотелей — для поселения не требуется никаких формальностей. Просто выкладываешь наличные, получаешь ключ, и никто не интересуется ни твоей персоной, ни твоим спутником, ожидающим в машине. Вход в номер — отдельный. Не случайно мотель воспринимается американцами еще и как атрибут тайной жизни — в частности, как синоним адюльтера и гангстерской «малины».

… в Камбодже недавно открыт отель «The One Hotel», состоящий всего из одной комнаты. Основное его преимущество — это возможность почувствовать себя единственным клиентом. Отель также имеет свой ресепшен, швейцара и полный набор услуг, как и в традиционном отеле, но, естественно, несколько видоизмененных в виду особенностей гостиницы, например салон номера люкс может легко превратиться в ресторан.

… сеть отелей «Sheraton Hotels and Resorts» и компания «Microsoft» подписали соглашение об установке компьютеров на базе Microsoft в лобби гостиниц в течение 2008 года. Новое предложение «Link@Sheraton experienced with Microsoft» предоставляет высокоскоростной доступ в Интернет, доступ Wi-Fi, функции веб-камеры, он-лайн телевидения и прессы, а также возможность заказать еду и напитки в ресторане отеля

… в мире есть 10 уникальных ресторанов, в которых стоит пообедать хотя бы раз за свою жизнь. Один из них — ресторан, где тело используется как стол. «Hadaka Sushi» — японский ресторан в Лос-Анджелесе вводит чувственное понятие «Nyotaimori», которое подразумевает женское тело как поднос для пищи. В ресторане работают красивые модели, которые укладываются на стол, большая часть их тела покрывается банановыми листьями, на которых размещаются суши.

… в Англии останутся пинты, фунты и мили. Евросоюз отказался от требования к англичанам перестать использовать мили, фунты и пинты. Требование отказа от имперских мер вызывало слишком большое сопротивление и негативное отношение к ЕС в Великобритании. Таким образом, в пабах Великобритании туристы по-прежнему могут смело просить налить им пинту пива.

… Houstonian Hotel, принимающий туристов в Хьюстоне, сделал акцент на фитнесе. Около сотни видов физической нагрузки можно выбрать в рамках специальной фитнес-программы отеля, включая баскетбол, скалолазание, плавание в бассейне и занятия в тренажерном зале.

… Expedia недавно опросила 4000 отельеров со всего мира — какие туристы самые лучшие (категории включали в том числе: манеры, характерные черты, щедрость, опрятность, склонность к жалобам). Лучшими туристами по версии Expedia’s First Global Best Tourist Survey стали японцы. На втором месте немцы и англичане. Третье место разделили канадцы и швейцарцы. Американцы лишь на 11 месте, они признаны шумными и неопрятными. Итальянцы и французы — лучше всех одеваются, но французы — самые скупые. Немцы — самые опрятные.

… Best Western по-прежнему остается крупнейшей гостиничной цепочкой в мире. Именно эта компания располагает самым большим числом отелей и номеров в рамках одного бренда. На сегодняшний день в портфолио Best Western насчитывается 4035 отелей и 308636 гостиничных номеров.

… отель Britannia в Стокпорте был признан самым грязным в Британии по результатам опроса туристов со всего мира. 40 из 43 человек, писавших рецензии на этот отель, поставили ему самую низкую из возможных оценок. Благодаря разгромным рецензиям отель получил приз за самое низкое место в ежегодном рейтинге отелей Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice. Отелю был присвоен рейтинг «абсолютно грязный», и к Пасхе персонал намерен поднять рейтинг отеля до просто «грязного».

… мотель Lazy Meadow Motel, принадлежащий Кейт Пирсон, украшен безделушками, которые певица собирала ещё в пору своих выступлений с группой B-52’s.

… каждый день тысячи и тысячи путешественников пользуются гостиничными замками VingCard и сейфами Elsafe в 6 миллионах номеров в 35000 больших и маленьких гостиницах по всему миру, во всех временных зонах.

… журнал Forbes составил список пляжей, возле которых встречается больше всего акул, опасных для человека. Список возглавляет Австралия, где все без исключения пляжи являются опасными. В Калифорнии туристам следует быть особенно осторожными на пляже Bolinas. На Гавайях опасно у острова Мауи, а второе место занимает Оаху. В список также вошли бухта Коси-Бей, Гансбааи и Квазулу-Натал (ЮАР), Тайгер-Бич на Багамах и пляжи Ресифи (Бразилия).

… самый маленький проект НОРВЕК — 4 замка в частной гостинице на Калужском шоссе Московской области, а самый большой — более 2000 замков в Измайлово Гамма-Дельта.

… 12 июня Санкт-Петербург отметит не только День независимости России, но и 150-летие одной из своих главных достопримечательностей: Исаакиевского собора. Храм строился с 1818 по 1858 год по проекту Огюста Монферрана.

… The World (рус. «Мир»‎) — искусственный архипелаг, состоящий из 300 островов, общей формой напоминающий континенты Земли, находится в 4 километрах от береговой линии Дубая в Объединенных Арабских Эмиратах. Острова The World созданы, главным образом, из песка мелких прибрежных вод Дубая и, наряду с архипелагом The Palm, являются ещё одним искусственным архипелагом в окрестностях административного центра эмирата Дубай.

… сегодня каждый отель сети Holiday Inn ничем не отличается от любого из своих собратьев, в какой бы части света он не находился. Взять хоть единую систему льгот: постоянным клиентам членская карточка Priority Pass дает как минимум 10% экономии при бронировании номера, дети до 19 лет могут бесплатно жить в одном номере с родителями (системе Kids Stay Free), крупными скидками пользуются организаторы всевозможных съездов и конференций, обеспечивающих процветание большинству отелей…

… почти 18% гостиничных номеров страны сконцентрировано в Москве и 8% – в Санкт- Петербурге. При этом Москва с большим отрывом лидирует по финансовым показателям гостиничного бизнеса, получая около 40% всех доходов. Доля Санкт-Петербурга в доходах от основной деятельности всех гостиничных предприятий в 2007 составляла 12%. (по состоянию на 2008 год)

… ремонтные работы в знаменитом отеле Dolder Grand в Цюрихе обошлись в 400 миллионов долларов и длились 4 года. Историческое здание превратилось в современный пятизвездочный городской курорт. История Dolder Grand началась еще в 1899 года, когда он назывался оздоровительным спа-центром Curhaus.

1. About VISIONLINE

Note: This manual describes everyday operations. For setup operations, and more detailed information about some items in the software, see Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE. Setup of users and operators are however described in this document User manual VingCard VISIONLINE since they are rather ‘daily operations’. In the hotel locking system VingCard VISIONLINE, the locks are standalone and battery powered; all information is stored and carried on the cards. The keyword is security; the use of time limited cards that can be cancelled if they are being improperly used ensures that unauthorized access will not take place. There is also the possibility to keep records of the transactions in the lock to see who entered and when. An electronic locking system is installed to raise the security at the hotel and to make the hotel routines easier. The flexibility of the system makes it perfect for all types of hotels — the system can be configured to meet every hotel’s demands. Each VISIONLINE system has its unique system identity that ensures that no locks at your property can be opened with a card from another property. The system identity is contained in the database and is not known to anybody — not even to VingCard. It is therefore necessary that you assure that the following items are securely stored in case there is a hardware error on your system that includes loss of all backups.

Backup of the database (see section 1.4 for details) — this has to be a backup made after setting the system ID System-ID card; see Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE for information about this card If these items are stored in a secure way, it will be possible to recover the system after a hardware error that includes loss of all backups. Each staff member who is a cardholder is a user — persons with cards to unlock doors as well as operators with cards to use the VISIONLINE software. See 3.3Users for more information. Everyone who uses the VISIONLINE software is an operator. Every operator belongs to an operator template that defines the operator’s authority in the system. To log on to VISIONLINE, the operator must have an operator card, a user ID and a password. From the beginning, only the operator system manager is included in the system. At first start of the system, the system manager does not have any operator card but instead enters a license code. See Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE for more information about first start of the system. See 3.9 Operators for more information about operators. Before starting to use the software, items such as user groups, doors, time schedules etc must be set up. These operations are described in Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE. The setup operations are normally made once, but changes can naturally be made at any time later on. There are however some exceptions, e.g. group authority and blocking groups; once they have been set up, they cannot be changed.

Note: Several software options are available; see chapter 8 Options for brief descriptions. Each option also has a separate option instruction with more detailed information; these documents are listed in Appendix G: Read more. That appendix also lists other documents that are referred to from this manual.

Note: Some information is shown as alerts at logon, e.g. if backup has not been done for a specified number of days or if certain card types are about to expire. The alerts are presented in a wizard-like dialog. The logon alerts are also shown if File/Show logon alerts is chosen. 1.1 Automatic online operations If an online option is used in the system, the following online operations are performed automatically:

• The time is at regular intervals set in all online doors to avoid unsynchronized clocks. • If the calendar is used, it is sent to all online doors initially (for 12 months ahead) and if changes are made to it.

The calendar is also sent to all online doors every six months. • Lock parameters are transferred to the locks at initiation with initiation card, service device or (for mag/smart locks

only) HCU. If any of the “ordinary” parameters event filters, open function or open mode – or the online advanced parameter door ajar time – is after the first initiation changed under Tools/Options in the VISIONLINE software, the changes are sent to the concerned online locks by broadcast.

1.2 To start the software 1. Click the Start button and go to Programs/VisiOnline/VisiOnline . 2. When requested, log on with user ID, password and operator card. For first start of the VISIONLINE software,

1. 3 General about the VISIONLINE software (version 1.12.0)

When the password has been successfully entered, the navigation window is the first dialog that is shown. The navigation window has three tabs; the Cards tab, the Lists tab and the Reports tab. All cards, lists and reports available for the user’s level of authority are shown here. Double click on a card, list or report to move on, or mark the wanted function and press Enter . The Online tab is only shown if an online option has been set. The different choices under the Online tab are described in chapter 5 Online. There are different ways of navigating in the software: the menu bar, the tool bar and the navigation window. Furthermore, it is often possible to reach one specific dialog in many different ways. The name of the open dialog is always displayed in the title bar. Several dialogs can be open at the same time; only one can be active at a time though. For more information and tips about working in Windows, please see Appendices A: Keyboard and Dialog and B: Tips on how to work in Windows.

Note: If no windows are open in the software, the context menu to the right is shown if pressing Shift+F10 or right-clicking.

1.4 Backup of database At Tools/Options/System/Database backup , it is possible to set up a backup folder which should be located on a file server. If there is no file server available, a USB memory can be used for backup.

1. Click the button to the right of the Backup folder field and browse to the desired backup folder. Note: The chosen backup folder should be located where regular backup is made.

2. Click OK. If a backup folder is chosen, the database will automatically be copied to the chosen folder after each housekeeping. Before the database is copied, a compression of the database is automatically performed. At “Last run” in the Tools/Options/System/ Database backup dialog, it will be shown when backup to the backup folder was last made.

Note: VingCard recommends that a database backup is made every day. If a backup folder is set up according to above, this is automatically the case since housekeeping is run every day; see 1.5 Housekeeping for more information.

1.4.1 Backup to folder, USB memory, diskette etc The alternative Backup database can be used for storing information either to the folder set up according to section 1.4 above, or to a USB memory, diskette etc. When backup is started, housekeeping and database compression are automatically run in order to make the stored database as small as possible.

1. Click the Start button and choose Programs/ VisiOnline/Tools/Backup database .

2. Mark the appropriate radio button “To diskette” or “To folder”.

3. Click Backup . If “To folder” is used, browse to the desired USB memory etc and click OK. If “To diskette” is chosen, follow the instructions on the screen. This procedure requires a number of diskettes; how many depends on the size of the database.

4. At Tools/Options/System/Database backup , it will at “Last run” be shown when backup to diskette or folder was last done.

Note: After the first backup to diskette or folder, a warning will by default be shown at logon if backup has not been done for 7 days. If desired, the number of days can be changed at Tools/Options/System/Database backup ; enter the desired number of days and click OK.

1.4.2 Database administration

1. Click the Start button and choose Programs/ VisiOnline/Tools/Database administration ; click Compress .

2. If the computer has collapsed, data can be retained; if the collapse was not too serious. Do as above but click Repair .

3. The Reopen button is used for freeing memory occupied by the database server. This is normally not needed but can be done at large properties if the system performance decreases.

Note: Reopening is also performed automatically by the database server.

1.4.3 Restore from folder, USB memory, diskette etc It can be necessary to restore the database with a backed up database, for example if the computer collapses. Note: The existing database will be destroyed.

1. Click the Start button and choose Programs/ VisiOnline/Tools/Restore database .

2. Mark the appropriate radio button “From diskette” or “From folder”.

3. Click Restore . There will be a number of questions to make sure that the user is aware of the consequences of restoring the database; i.e. destroying the existing database.

4. If “From folder” is used, browse to the desired USB memory etc and click OK.

1.5 Housekeeping Expired cards and old events must be removed from the database, or VISIONLINE will be too slow. This operation is called housekeeping. Expired guest cards are removed 7 days after expiration, while other expired cards are removed 30 days after expiration. Events are removed after 7 days; operator events after 30 days. If alarms are used in VISIONLINE, there is also a parameter for the number of days to keep completed alarms; default is 30 days. See section 3.15 for more information about alarms. The number of days to keep events, cards and – if applicable – completed alarms are system parameters which can be modified under Tools/Options/System/Housekeeping . Housekeeping can be started in two ways:

• Housekeeping starts every day at the time that has been defined at Tools/Options/System/ Housekeeping , default is 4.00 AM. In network installations, the Lock Application Starter service starts the housekeeping and the VISIONLINE client does not need to be running. In standalone installations, Lock Application Starter is not applicable and the VISIONLINE client must be running for the housekeeping to start (but no operator has to be logged on).

• Housekeeping can be done manually by compressing the database, using database administration or by backing-up the database to folder/USB memory/diskette etc.

Note: If no housekeeping has been run for 7 days (or any other time defined under Tools/Options/System/ Housekeeping ), a warning will be shown at logon. You will also be asked whether you want to start housekeeping or not.

1.6 Export a database for support From Tools/Export database you can export the database. The exported database will get the demo system ID. The database is copied to a sub-folder called ‘Export’. If the export is done on the server, the database is also copied to the clipboard so it can be conveniently pasted e.g. to an FTP site. This function is by default available to system managers. This enables a property with problems to export the current database and send it to Technical support without having to reveal the system ID. This enhances security as it ensures that not even the staff at Technical support can issue cards for any lock on the property.

2. Cards There are two different types of cards in VISIONLINE; access cards and function cards. Access cards open doors; function cards can change the status of a door, but cannot open doors. All cards are shown in the navigation window under the Cards tab and in the menu bar under Cards .

2.1 General about cards All cards that are issued in the VISIONLINE system have unique registration numbers (except for guest cards issued at the same time in a system with family function; see 6.2 Family function for details). Since all cards can be separated from one another, they can be cancelled individually. Note: All cards except for magnetic cards must be purchased from VingCard. Note: The icons in the navigation window show whether a card is a magnetic/Ultralight/1k card, a smart/4k/CryptoRF card or if it can be either. Note: For security reasons, the operator must enter his password for each card that is to be issued. If this setting should for some reason be changed, follow the steps regarding Tools/Options/System/Security in Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE. Note: Some card encoders can be used for automatic update of certain card types. See Installation instruction Auto-update and validation option for further information. Guests and joiners with access to the same guest room belong to the same “party”. A new guest card will always cancel the previous party in the lock; the old guest cards are marked as “overridden” in the database and will no longer have access to the room. All guest cards have got override numbers which are sequential, i.e. a later issued guest card has got a higher override number than an earlier issued guest card for the same room. Other card statuses which can appear in the card list; see 3.2 Cards for more information about card list search filters etc:

• valid • overridden • not issued • cancelled; see 2.3.1 Cancel card for details • expired • overwritten; if a card has been overwritten with new information, the old card information is still shown in the

card list as for a separate card • discarded; if a card should not be used anymore at all, it can be discarded (see 2.1.2 To discard a card for details)

For all encoder types (except for the manual magnetic card encoder, MCE), the cards are read before they are encoded — if a valid card is presented at the encoder, a dialog alerts the operator.

Fields that are connected are highlighted with color when the marker is in one of them. When the No. of days value is changed, the Expiration time will change automatically and vice versa. Most cards in the system have an expiration time that is possible to change. Put the marker in the field and enter the new expiration time; both time and date can be changed in this way. The expiration time on power down cards, emergency cards and system-ID cards (and the optional local code cards; see Installation instruction Local codes option for hotel systems) is unlimited and cannot be changed.

Page 11: 4822114 User Manual VISIONLINE 1.12.0 - KC Server User... · 8.14 b Auto-update in lock ... In the hotel locking system VingCard VISIONLINE, the locks are standalone and battery powered;

July 5, 2012 Page 11 of 78 4822114C

A calendar control is available in all card dialogs where an expiration time is to be chosen – the expiration time does not need to be entered manually, just pick the appropriate date in the calendar.

The way to display time and date depends on the regional settings in the PC.

In card dialogs with treeview for the doors, e.g. the Staff card dialog as in the example to the right, a range of doors in the same door area can in the treeview be marked in one operation. Example: If doors 101-110 on ‘Floor 1’ should all be marked, mark the checkbox for room 101 and then press the Shift button on the keyboard at the same time as the checkbox for room 110 is marked. This will mark all doors in the range 101-110.

2.1.1 To verify a card To read or verify a card, click on the appropriate Verify card button in the tool bar; there is one button for magnetic/Ultralight/1k cards and one button for smart/4k/CryptoRF cards.

To verify a magnetic/Ultralight/1k card:

Click the button and present the card at the encoder. The dialog from where the card was issued will be displayed on the screen.

To verify a smart/4k/CryptoRF card:

1. Click the button and present the card at the encoder. The dialog from where the card was issued will be displayed on the screen.

2.1.1.1 To extend the expiration time of a card Should a guest wish to prolong the stay, or a staff card is about to expire, the expiration time of the card can be extended. Staff cards can also be auto-updated; see Installation instruction Auto-update and validation option for more information.

1. Click the applicable Verify card button in the tool bar or press F5 for magnetic/Ultralight/1k cards, F6 for smart/4k/CryptoRF cards; present a card at the encoder.

2. Click Unlock and change the check-out time. 3. Click Make card . Present the card at the encoder.

Note: If several cards belong to the party, they all have to be re-encoded at the same time.

2.1.1.2 To view the counter status on a card Guest advanced cards and staff cards can have N-time function, which means that certain doors such as work-out facilities or breakfast rooms can be opened a limited number of times. If a guest wants to know the number of openings that is left on the card, the card can be verified.

1. Click the Verify smart card button in the tool bar or press F6; present the card at the encoder.

2. If the N-time function is active on the card, the More button will be shown. To activate the button, mark the door whose status you want to see.

3. Click the More button and the Counter Status dialog will be displayed, showing detailed information about the N-time function. If more than one counter is defined in one door, the other ones are viewed by clicking Previous and/or Next in the Counter Status dialog. Two counters can never be active at the same time; if two or more counters are assigned to one door, they work at different times according to a time schedule.

The different parameters that are shown are:

• Door name — name of the door • Counter — the first value is the number of the counter that is shown, the

second is how many counters there are in that door • Initial value — how many openings the door will allow if every opening

costs 1 • Current value — the initial value decreased by the used openings if

every opening costs 1 • Last used — date and time when the counter was last used • Reset time — if the counter should be reset once every 24 hours, i.e. be

set to initial value again, this is the time it will occur. If no reset time is stated, the counter will never be reset, but work from initial value until all openings have been used

• Cost — by how much the initial value will decrease every time the card is used in a door with that counter

• Counter name — name of the counter • Time schedule — if the counter works according to a time schedule,

i.e. will only work certain times certain days For information on how to set up a counter, see Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE. 2.1.1.3 To verify tracks 1 and 2 Normally, VISIONLINE encodes information on track 3 of the cards. When using the Verify magnetic card button according to 2.1.1 To verify a card, it is track 3 of the card that is read. However, it is also possible to verify information from tracks 1 and 2. Reading track 2 is applicable when using VISIONLINE together with a POS system. For verifying tracks 1 and 2, either an automatic card encoder (ACE) or a dual card encoder (DCE) can be used. For track 2, it is also possible to use a card encoder (CE).

1. Go to Tools/Read track 1 and 2 . 2. Click the appropriate radio button “Track 1” or “Track 2”. 3. Click Read track . The Track data will be shown.

2.1.2 To discard a card If a card is physically damaged, it should be discarded. A discarded card will by default not appear in the card list. It is however possible to show cards that have been discarded; see below for details. Note: Please note the difference between discarding and cancelling a card. Cancelling is used for cards that are lost while discarding is used for cards that are physically damaged. A cancelled card can if found be re-encoded and used again, while a discarded card should not be used anymore at all. See 2.3.1 Cancel card for details about cancelling of cards. To discard a card:

1. Double click on Cards under the Lists tab in the navigation window. 2. Click OK to get the entire card list, or enter an appropriate search filter and click OK. 3. Mark the concerned card in the card list and click Discard .

To show discarded cards in the card list:

1. Double click on Cards under the Lists tab in the navigation window. 2. At Status in the Cards — Search filter dialog, choose ‘Discarded’ and click OK.

2.1.3 Card receipts When issuing cards of the following types, it is possible to print a receipt for the cardholder to sign:

• staff card

• emergency card

• configuration card (Inncom, ZigBee or RS-485)

• operator card

Some fields on the card receipts are mandatory (such as the cardholder’s name and the card type) while other fields are optional. The margins of the receipts can also be modified. See Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE (section To modify settings under Tools/Options) for details about modifying the settings for receipts.

2.1.4 Template cards For cards of type meeting room, staff, blocking and (requires the Local codes option) local code, changes that have previously been saved for the card can be loaded into the card dialog. If Unlock is clicked in the card dialog (after double clicking on the card in the card list), there will be an info bar as in the screenshot example below:

1. Click Load to load the saved card

information to the card dialog; the information can then if desired be edited.

Note: If the template card is not applicable, click the in the info bar to ignore the template card.

2.1.5 To prevent invalid staff card usage If an online option is used, it is possible to avoid unsuitable use of other cards than different types of guest cards in guest rooms. An alarm is triggered if a person with a non-guest card dead-bolts a guest room from the inside, or stays too long inside the guest room. For setup of the function, see User manual Online option.

2.2 Access cards Access cards open locks. Whenever an access card has been accepted in the lock, there will (depending on lock model) be a short green LED signal and/or a chirp sound to show that the opening is successful. The access cards are found both in the navigation window and in the menu Cards . VISIONLINE has a very user-friendly interface. It keeps track of the rooms that are occupied, i.e. where a valid guest card already exists. If a new guest-related access card is made to an occupied room, a dialog alerts the operator. Note: All different types of guest cards mentioned in this chapter 2.2 will after check-out still be valid in entrance doors and common rooms (but not foyer doors) until they expire. A guest advanced card or staff card can have N-time function in some doors. The N-time function means e.g. that a guest can be given access to the breakfast room twice every day three days a week, and to the pool once every day on weekends, and at the same time be able to open the regular guest room an unlimited number of times. The N-time function is enabled by clicking Counters in the card dialog. See Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE for information about setting up counters. All magnetic guest cards can have track 2 data included on the cards, provided that the option POS/Track 2 was ordered with the system. The data to include is specified at Tools/ Options/System/Track 2 ; more information about Tools/Options is found in the section about modifying Tools/Options settings in Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE. To include the track 2 data on a card:

1. Check “Include track 2 data” in the card dialog before issuing the card.

2.2.11 Emergency card The emergency cards are smart/4k/CryptoRF cards with unlimited access. They have access to all doors in the hotel for an unlimited period of time. A lost emergency card must be cancelled in all locks immediately. In the card list, the expiration time for an emergency card will say 2036. This is due to a limitation in the database; the card in itself has no expiration time. Note: The emergency cards have to be issued at the installation. If needed, extra emergency cards can be issued later on. It is however important to be careful about the emergency cards and to keep them in a safe place when they are not in use. There are two kinds of emergency openings; regular and stand open. These are system parameters set up by the distributor. The parameter cannot be changed at the hotel. The regular opening means that the lock will be open during its opening time and then lock. The emergency stand open means that the lock is opened when the emergency card is first presented. The emergency card must be presented a second time to lock it again. The system settings report will show what kind of emergency opening you have at the hotel; see 4.3 System settings. Note: Inform the fire department about the locking system and the emergency cards! Local regulations must be followed.

2.2.12 Power down card Power down cards are always magnetic/Ultralight/1k cards. If a computer break-down or a power failure should occur, the pre-made power down cards will allow staff or new guests to enter rooms even though it is not possible to issue any cards. The power down cards must be made in connection with the installation and be kept in a safe place. The expiration time of the power down card is set to unlimited. Note: Only one power down card may be handed out per room, since additional power down cards for the same room will override the previous ones in the lock. This applies even if the first issued power down card has not been used in the lock yet. Note: A power down card will cancel a valid guest card and a valid future arrival card. A new guest card or future arrival card will then cancel the used power down card. Note: If one or more power down cards have been used, make a list of the room numbers and issue new power down cards to replace the used ones as soon as the system is back in operation. Always keep the power down cards in a safe place when they are not in use.

In addition to the possibility to trace a certain card for a certain number of hours or a certain number of events, it is also possible to choose what events to retrieve from the lock. A read-out card advanced can hold around 300 events. Advanced read-out cards are always smart/4k/CryptoRF cards.

1. Double click on Read-out Advanced in the navigation window.

2. Check the events you want to read out, uncheck the ones you do not want to read out.

3. To read only new events, i.e. events that have not been marked as read in the lock, check Only new events and Mark events as read .

4. To trace a certain card, i.e. only read events caused by that card, enter the number or fetch it from the card list by clicking the button. If possible, enter a search filter in the Cards – Search filter dialog; then click OK to get the card list. Double click on the card in the card list; the registration number will be moved to the read-out dialog.

5. When all information has been entered, click Make Card . 6. Present a card at the encoder.

Present the card at a lock to make a read-out; there is (depending on lock model) a yellow continuous LED and/or a ticking sound while the information is being transferred. Wait for a short green LED flash and/or a chirp sound before retracting the card, or the operation will not be successful. One Read-out card advanced can be used in several locks. When the card is full, three short red LED flashes and/or three beeps will alert the user. Once the information is retrieved from the lock, it can be transferred to the VingCard PC:

1. Click on the icon Read events from card (or press F7) and present the card at the encoder. 2. In the dialog which appears, click Read card to see the fetched events. The events can only be fetched

from the card once and then they are erased from the card. They can however be read out from the lock again. Note: The dialog Read events from card shows some fields from the card list: card status, issue time, expiration time, start time and cancel time.

3. If you want to show the properties of a card: mark the card in the Read events from card dialog, right click and choose Show card . The card dialog will be shown.

4. If you want to show more information about the events for a card, right click on the card in the Read events from card dialog and choose Track card . The event list for the card will be shown.

5. If you want to show more detailed information for a card, right click on the card in the Read events from card dialog and choose Go to card list . The card will be shown in the card list.

2.3.10 Operator card To log into the VISIONLINE system, each operator needs a user ID, a password and an operator card. The user ID identifies the operator. The card, in combination with the password, controls the operator’s authority. The operator cards can be either smart/4k/CryptoRF cards or magnetic/Ultralight/1k cards — which kind to use is optional and depends on how the encoders are located. If the operator cards are of smart card type, they can also be used in the HCU. Once the system ID has been set in the HCU, an operator card is needed to access the HCU. At Tools/Operator template X-reference , it can be defined whether an operator card shall give access to the HCU or not: choose the Options tab, mark “Operator card will also access HCU” and click OK.

1. Double click on Operator in the navigation window.

2. Select a cardholder from the operator list by clicking the button; double click on a name or mark the name and click Select .

3. Choose the expiration time of the card: enter the number of days for which the card shall be valid, or click the button next to the Expiration time field and mark a date in the calendar (or enter a date manually). The chosen date will appear at Expiration time ; the number of days will change accordingly.

4. At Media , choose whether the card shall be a magnetic/RFID card (magnetic/Ultralight/1k card) or a smart/RFID card (smart/4k/CryptoRF card).

5. If you want a receipt for the operator to sign, check Print receipt . If you want an additional text of your own choice, you can add this under Tools/Options/Printer/Receipt , “Note on receipt”; maximum 765 characters. This text will be added to all staff/operator receipts until it is changed or deleted.

6. Click Make card . 7. Present a card at the encoder.

Note: The operator card cannot be used in the locks; it is only used to determine an operator’s level of authority in the software and (for smart cards) in the HCU. It is however possible for an operator to use his staff card as an operator card as well — see 3.9 Operators for details.

3. Lists The lists in VISIONLINE are all structured in the same way and can be processed according to Windows standard. All lists are shown in the navigation window under the Lists tab. The card list is generated in the system; all other lists are set up to suit the hotel’s needs. All lists can be printed; either on paper, if a printer is connected, or to a file. The database will be too big if all cards and events are stored for too long; therefore, printing to file is an option for customers who want to store the different lists. If printed to a file, it is saved as an xls-file and can be processed in Microsoft Excel. In the folder where VISIONLINE has been installed, there is also a separate program (ImportExport.exe ) with which you can export data to an xls-file and also import user data to the VISIONLINE database. Contact your distributor for further information. When you select Print in a list dialog, you will get the options Print to file , Print with additional note , Print and Selection only . Even if no additional note is chosen, all printed lists will have a note with type of list and time of printing. On the last page of a printed list, you will always find a note about the total number of rows in the list. Note: To select all items in a list, click Ctrl+A .

3.1 General about lists To add data to a list, go to Add new in the menu bar. This can also be done from the list dialog by clicking the Add button. Some lists are linked so that it is possible to go from one list directly to another and then back to the first. Note: When adding new data, click Save to save the data and keep the text in the fields, click New to save the data and empty the fields. When no more data is to be added, click Close to return to the list. It is often possible to add descriptions when adding new data. The descriptions can be anything you want; their function is only to make the operation of the system easier. To see the dialog where data was added, click Properties . To make changes in the data, make the changes and click Update . By right clicking in some of the lists, it is possible to copy an existing record and give it a new name. This can for example be used for operator templates and user groups. The button alternatives are also shown when right clicking on a record in the list. In some lists, there are additional alternatives when right clicking on a record in the list; see the different list sections for further information. Note: The right click menu in a list can also be reached by marking the applicable item in the list and pressing Shift +F10. Please see Appendix B: Tips on how to work in Windows for some tips on how to sort and process lists.

3.4 User groups All users must belong to a user group. If desired, user groups can be set up with group access which will give the concerned users a default access.

At large properties that need more user groups than the system limitation of 200 user groups, it is possible to use blocking groups instead.

With the auto-blocking option, it is possible to automatically block chosen user groups (or if applicable, blocking groups) from all rented online rooms. An example is to auto-block the group ‘Carpenters’ to avoid renovation in rooms where guests are staying. If there is a reorganization of working groups etc, this might lead to the removal of one or more user groups from the system. If you try to remove a user group which is not empty, you will get the message to the right. If you try to remove several user groups which are not empty, you can either skip a group and go to the next group that is marked, or abort the entire operation.

To see what users that are part of a certain user group:

1. Right click on the user group in the user group list and choose Show users .

July 5, 2012 Page 39 of 78 4822114C

3.6 Door areas All doors in the system must belong to a door area. The division of areas can be logical and/or geographical. When assigning access for the user groups, entire door areas can be checked at once which enhances the operation remarkably. For setup of door areas, see Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE.

3.7 Calendar All days that are set up as a certain day type are shown in the calendar list. The reason for assigning a date to a day type is that the time schedules can work in another way during that particular date. Each day type can be assigned several different dates. Date s for daylight saving time and standard time can be automatically generated. For setup of the calendar, see Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE.

3.8 Time schedules There are two kinds of time schedules. An access time schedule is encoded on a card and limits a staff member from entering a location on certain dates and times. If keypad units are used at the property, it may also limit the access so that at certain dates and times, both card and code are required. A passage time schedule is used in a door to lock and unlock automatically on certain dates and times. For setup of time schedules, see Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE. To show what doors/cards that are using a certain time schedule:

1. Double click on Time schedules under the Lists tab in the navigation window.

2. Right click on the concerned time schedule and choose Show doors/cards .

3.9 Operators All operators of the system must be set up in the operator list. To define who the operators are, they are first set up as users and assigned to a user group. Then, to define what level of authority they have, they are assigned to operator templates. For setup of users, see 3.3 Users. For setup of user groups and operator templates, see Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE. From the beginning, only the operator system manager is included in the VISIONLINE system. The system manager can by default perform all operations in the system (except for those on distributor level).

To add/modify an operator:

Note: When setting up a new operator, the operator card can be encoded at the same time; see below.

1. Double click on Operator in the navigation window. 2. Click Add to add an operator (or, if the properties of an

existing operator should be modified, mark the operator and click Properties ).

3. Select a user by clicking the button; double click on a name or mark the name and click Select .

4. Choose what Operator template the operator shall belong to; default is the alphabetically first template available for the card issuing operator. If desired, certain user groups and/or door areas can be excluded from certain templates – see the section about group authority in Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE for details. Note: The operator template can later be changed, as long as the operator template of the logged on operator has for this operation not got a lower authority than the operator template that is to be changed. The operator template for system manager can however not be changed.

5. Enter and confirm the password. It can be either letters or numbers. Note that the letters are case sensitive, i.e. a difference is made between capital and lower-case letters.

6. If an operator card should be issued immediately, check Issue operator card . Note: If the operator should also have access to doors, it is not necessary to issue a separate operator card. The operator’s staff card can be used for accessing doors as well as for logging on to the software. Go to Tools/Options/ System/Miscellaneous and click the checkbox “Allow logging on with staff card” before clicking OK.

7. Choose the expiration time of the card: enter the number of days for which the card shall be valid, or click the button next to the Expiration time field and mark a date in the calendar (or enter a date manually). The chosen date will appear at Expiration time ; the number of days will change accordingly.

8. Choose whether the operator card shall be a magnetic/RFID card (magnetic/Ultralight/1k card) or a smart/RFID card (smart/4k/CryptoRF card).

9. If you want a receipt for the operator to sign, check Print receipt . If you want an additional text of your own choice, you can add this under Tools/Options/Printer/Receipt , “Note on receipt”; maximum 765 characters. This text will be added to all staff/operator receipts until it is changed or deleted.

10. Click New or Save, or Update if an existing operator was redefined. 11. If Issue operator card was checked, a message will say that an operator card will be issued.

To change the operator password:

1. The logged on operator can at any time change his own password at File/Change password .

Note: If a system manager tries to change his password to a password that already exists for another operator, the message to the right is shown. When the Information button is clicked, a dialog as in the example down to the right is shown.

To search for an operator in the operator list:

3.10 Operator templates The operator templates decide the level of authority for different operators, e.g.

• what card types the operator can issue and the maximum validity of these cards • what lists the operator can access and what to do with them • if any user groups and/or door areas should be hidden for the operator (requires group authority; see Setup manual

VingCard VISIONLINE for details) A certain operator template can for some operations have a higher authority than other templates, but for other operations have a lower authority. For setup of operator templates, see Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE.

3.11 Counters Guest advanced cards and staff cards can for some door types have counters. A card can have more than one counter – however, if two or more counters are assigned to one door, they work at different times according to a time schedule. For setup of counters, see Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE.

3.12 Devices The device list shows everything connected to the VingCard PC. There are some predefined device types in the VISIONLINE software, such as encoders, service device host, HCU and PMS. An example of when new devices must be added to the device list is if a service device, HCU, PMS device or more encoders than the predefined ones should be used with the system. For setup of devices, see Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE.

3.13 Wing codes At hotels with several buildings etc, wing codes is a way to give all guests access to common areas at the main hotel, e.g. pool and gym. For setup of wing codes, see Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE.

3.14 Service devices A service device with the software Lock Service can be used together with VISIONLINE and includes basically the same functions as the HCU. See Quick reference guide Service PC for information about setting up a service device in VISIONLINE and about using Lock Service.

3.15 Alarms The alarm list contains two modes:

• ‘Runtime’ with callback data • ‘Filtered’ with historical data

The ‘Runtime’ mode shows all alarms that are right now triggered in the system; requires that the alarm types have been marked at Tools/Enable/disable alarms . By default, all alarm types except for those related to report types, too many guest cards, invalid staff card usage and no door activity are marked. If any changes should be made: mark/unmark the applicable check boxes at Tools/Enable/disable alarms , click Update and Close . In the ‘Filtered’ mode, it is possible to show only certain alarms in the alarm list, e.g. those which are non-complete or belong to a certain alarm category. Note: A Logon alerts wizard will once a day at logon show alarm warnings if there are any, e.g. ‘This program license will expire on…’, ‘Housekeeping has not run since…’ or ‘There are cards that will expire within X days’. For the alarm warnings below, it can be chosen under Tools/Options whether the warning should be shown or not:

• expiration warnings for cards • expiration warnings for options • warning if no backup has been made for a certain number of days • if the loyalty option Hotel chains is applicable: warning that slaves have not received loyalty information

Note: If the Communication option is used, chosen recipients can get e-mails and/or SMS about alarms. See Installation instruction Communication option for more information.

Note: If the HotSOS (Hotel Service Optimization System) interface option is used at the hotel, any alarm in VISIONLINE can be set up to be sent to HotSOS when it is triggered, assigned, acknowledged or completed. See Installation instruction HotSOS interface option for VISIONLINE for further information.

3.15.1 Runtime mode 1. When an alarm is triggered, there will

(if ‘Enable alarm popup’ has been set up at Tools/Options/General ) be a popup window down to the right on the screen, showing information about the alarm. Note: The popup window is updated every 10 seconds.

2. If the popup window is clicked, the window will be closed and the alarm will instead be shown in the VISIONLINE alarm list. Note: If large amounts of alarms are continuously presented, there is a possibility to “freeze” the presentation of alarms so that it is possible to look closer at a certain alarm. To do this, click the Hold button.

3. All alarm categories are shown in the lower part of the Alarms dialog in bar chart form. Note: The bars only show non-completed alarms. By clicking on any of the alarm bars in the bar chart, all non-completed alarms in the clicked alarm category will be shown in the alarm list.

4.1 Events The event report shows all events that have been fetched from the locks and transferred to the PC. The housekeeping function (see 1.5 Housekeeping for details) keeps the list size limited by removing events that are older than a user defined number of days. When a read-out card or any other smart/4k/CryptoRF card is read in the encoder, the log on the card is stored in the event report. There are two different kinds of logs; Lock Logs show read-outs from locks and Moving Logs show at what doors the cards have been presented. Events from Moving Log are removed once they get older than the user defined limit. Events from Lock Log are removed when the read-out gets older than the user defined limit. Different search filters can be applied on the event report. The search filters are: User : here you can enter user ID, last name, first name and user group.

Events : with this filter you can pick out a specific event, or certain types of events. The main types are Access , Alert , Attempt , Lock Event , Error , Report Cards and Status Changed . Within each main type, there are event sub groups which can be divided further into specific events. In the section about event search filters in Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE, you will find a list of the different sub groups and specific events. Note as above that also a specific event can be chosen as search filter.

4.2 Read-outs All the Lock Logs that have been read out are stored in the database. If there is any need to view each read-out separately, they can be viewed from the database. The housekeeping function (see 1.5 Housekeeping for details) keeps the list size limited by removing read-outs that are older than a user defined number of days. In the read-out report you see the door names and, for each door, the time when the read-out was made. The event report can be refreshed when new events are added. When a new event has arrived, a * appears in the dialog caption and the Refresh button is enabled. Note: Events that are shown in the Read-outs report can be marked and copied to the clipboard using Ctrl+C . Note: If an online option is used with the system, events from the online locks are automatically transferred to VISIONLINE. For non-online locks, all events must be transferred via a read-out card or read-out card advanced on a regular basis, see 2.3.7 Read-out card and 2.3.8 Read-out card advanced for details. Among the doors in the list is the main guest room. In this way you can more easily determine e.g. why a guest card can access the room. To look at a read-out:

1. Double click on Read-outs in the navigation window.

2. Click on the log you want to see; the read-out will be shown in full.

Right-click alternatives for a read-out:

July 5, 2012 Page 60 of 78 4822114C

6. Lock The VingCard locks are standalone and battery powered. Whenever a card is presented at the lock, an event is stored in the lock and on the card (if a smart/4k/CryptoRF card). The battery level is tested every hour; if a change in the battery level has occurred, it will be stored as an event in the lock. The RFID lock alerts the card holder about its status with different LED signals. The mag/smart lock alerts the card holder about its status with different LED signals and sounds. See Appendix D for more detailed information about LEDs and sounds.

6.1 Dead-bolting The lock can be dead-bolted from the inside, blocking all cards except for the emergency card. If the family function is activated, guest cards within one party will open the dead-bolt; see 6.2 Family function. When a staff card is presented at the lock, three very short yellow LED flashes and/or a tick sound (depending on lock model) alerts the person about the lock being dead-bolted. When a guest card is presented at a dead-bolted lock, the lock gives no LED or sound signal. Throwing and releasing the dead-bolt are events that are stored in the lock, if performed with more than one minute apart.

6.2 Family function Family function means that a guest card from the same party as the guest who dead-bolted the lock can open the dead-bolt. All guests and joiners staying in one room belong to the same party. This function will not be available in the US, since it is not in accordance with the recommendation of AAA (American Automobile Association). For setup of family function, see the section about modifying Tools/Options in Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE.

6.3 Stand open Stand open means that the lock stays unlocked. There are three kinds of stand open functions: emergency, card and passage. The three kinds are independent and will not affect each other. Therefore it can be confusing if two stand open functions are active at the same time; this should be avoided if possible. See the section about stand open in Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE for setup information.

6.4 On/off The on/off function can be seen as a kind of card stand open. All doors can be set up to allow on/off cards. See section about on/off in Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE for setup information.

July 5, 2012 Page 61 of 78 4822114C

7. Card encoders In the VISIONLINE system, different kinds of cards can be used; magnetic/Ultralight/1k cards for guest cards and smart/4k/CryptoRF cards for staff cards and guest advanced cards, depending on lock model. The encoders can read cards as well as encode them. The information on the cards is encrypted. The ACE, DCE and MCE that are used together with the VISIONLINE system encode low coercivity magnetic cards. The DCE also encodes smart cards, see 7.4 Dual card encoder — DCE. Note: In addition to the encoders mentioned below, there is the Open Card printer which requires an option. An Open Card printer can be connected directly to VISIONLINE for printing/encoding magnetic cards; printing also requires the PMS Plus option. See Installation instruction Open Card printer option for further information.

7.1 Automatic card encoder – ACE The ACE is very easy to use since a motor moves the card. It can read and write magnetic cards only. The display on the encoder shows the room number to which the card is being encoded. The encoder gives a sound when a command to encode a card has been received. The ACE also has a keyboard, which enables some settings to be made in the encoder. Press Setup and insert the operator card that was delivered with the encoder. The different setup options are: Encoder address the encoder address can be set to 0-15

Language the language that will be shown on the display

Display timeout the time from when a card was read until the information is no longer shown can be set to 2, 4, 6, 8 or 10 seconds

Prompt timeout the time from when a button on the keyboard was pressed until the encoder times out can be set to 5, 10 or 15 seconds; the prompt timeout is also the time for how long the encoder will try to read/write a card after a command has been given from the PC

Verify mode choose to verify guest cards only or all cards

Verify system choose VISIONLINE Press Enter to make a choice and Esc to cancel a given command or exit. Press the arrows to increase/decrease values and to move around in the setup menu. It is possible to verify a guest card without giving the command from the software; press Enter on the encoder and insert the card in the reader. The display will show main room number and expiration time.

7.2 Manual magnetic card encoder — MCE The MCE is a more economic alternative than the ACE for small hotels. The operator inserts the card manually; successful encoding requires that the card is inserted with a certain speed. The operator will learn how to insert the card only after a few times. The stand-by light for the LED on the MCE is a steady green light. When a command to encode a card has been received, the encoder gives a sound and the LED starts to flash yellow. The encoder expects the card until the card is encoded or time-out occurs (after 15 seconds). The MCE alerts the operator of whether the encoding was successful or not with sound and LED. Flashing red light and error-beeps mean that the card has to be re-encoded. The card has been encoded when the card-encoding dialog disappears from the screen.

Page 62: 4822114 User Manual VISIONLINE 1.12.0 - KC Server User... · 8.14 b Auto-update in lock ... In the hotel locking system VingCard VISIONLINE, the locks are standalone and battery powered;

July 5, 2012 Page 62 of 78 4822114C

7.3 Smart card encoder — SCE • SCE III (different Omnikey models): A green LED is lit as long as the encoder is connected. While a card is

being read or encoded, a red flickering light is shown. When a card is to be encoded, a card-encoding dialog with information is shown. The card must remain in the encoder until the card-encoding dialog disappears from the screen. Another sign that the card is ready is that the Make card button is activated.

• SCE II (grey and transparent for USB version; grey and orange for RS-232 version): When a card is inserted, which is done in two movements, the LED turns red first and then green.

• SCE (white): When the SCE is powered, i.e. when the computer is on, there is a blinking green LED. Whenever a card is inserted in the encoder, the green light will be steady . In some cases, the power saving routines of the operating system makes the light steady only while the card is being read or written.

If there is a problem with the encoder not reading a card, the PC might not have contact with the encoder; restart the computer.

7.4 Dual card encoder – DCE The DCE can read and write both magnetic cards and smart cards. It is very easy to use since a motor moves the card. The display on the encoder shows the room number to which the card is being encoded. The encoder gives a sound when a command to encode a card has been received. The DCE can encode on all magnetic tracks. Track 1 is only available through PMS Plus. The DCE also has a keyboard, which enables some settings to be made in the encoder. Press Setup and insert the operator card that was delivered with the encoder. The different setup options are:

Encoder address the encoder address can be set to 0-15

Language the language that will be shown on the display

Display timeout the time from when a card was read until the information is no longer shown can be set to 2, 4, 6, 8 or 10 seconds

Prompt timeout the time from when a button on the keyboard was pressed until the encoder times out can be set to 5, 10 or 15 seconds; the prompt timeout is also the time for how long the encoder will try to read/write a card after a command has been given from the PC

Verify mode choose to verify guest cards only or all cards

Verify system choose VISIONLINE

Press Enter to make a choice and Esc to cancel a given command or exit. Press the arrows to increase/decrease values and to move around in the setup menu.

It is possible to verify a guest card without giving the command from the software; press Enter on the encoder and insert the card in the reader. The display will show main room number and expiration time.

7.5 RFID encoder The RFID encoder is used for encoding 4k/CryptoRF cards as staff cards or guest advanced cards, and Ultralight/1k cards as guest cards. The RFID encoder has got an Ethernet interface and an USB interface. For setup of the RFID encoder, see Quick reference guide RFID encoder and User manual RFID encoder.

7.6 KDE network encoder The KDE network encoder is used for encoding 4k/CryptoRF cards as staff cards or guest advanced cards, and Ultralight/1k cards as guest cards. The KDE encoder has got an Ethernet interface. For setup of the KDE network encoder, see Installation instruction KDE network encoder together with VISIONLINE or Vision.

7.7 Omnikey RFID encoder The Omnikey RFID encoder is used for encoding Ultralight/1k cards as guest cards. The Omnikey RFID encoder is integrated with the SCE encoder, but has a different port name.

Note: If CryptoRF cards are applicable, the KDE network encoder must be used; see section 7.6. A green LED is lit as long as the encoder is connected. While a card is being read or encoded, a red flickering light is shown. When a card is to be encoded, a card-encoding dialog with information is shown. The card must remain in the encoder until the card-encoding dialog disappears from the screen. Another sign that the card is ready is that the Make card button is activated.

July 5, 2012 Page 63 of 78 4822114C

8. Options Several VISIONLINE software options are available. If ordered together with the system, the option(s) are included in the license code and will be set in the system when the license code is entered. If any option(s) are ordered afterwards, they are delivered as option codes; see Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE for information about enabling options. Below are the VISIONLINE options briefly described in alphabetical order; detailed information about further software settings etc. for the different options is found in the option installation instructions which are included on the VISIONLINE CD. Note: Each option which can be turned on and off, e.g. the Online option, has an expiration time which is shown in the system settings report; see section 4.3.

8.1 Anti-passback With the Anti-passback option, cards that are used in one entrance lock to an anti-passback zone, e.g. a garage or a gym, are temporarily blocked in all entrance locks to the same anti-passback zone. When such a card is used in an exit lock to the concerned anti-passback zone, the temporary block is revoked. It is possible to have several entrance locks and exit locks to the same anti-passback zone.

Note: The Anti-passback option requires that the lock is online, preferably via Ethernet; this requires the Online via cable (RS-485) option. It also requires a special lock firmware. 8.2 Auto-blocking in rented rooms With the Auto-blocking in rented rooms option, chosen user groups (or blocking groups, if this is applicable) can be blocked from all rented online rooms. The option requires that an online option has been set. Example: To avoid renovation in rooms where guests are staying, the blocking group ‘Carpenters’ can be auto-blocked. For more information about auto-blocking, see Installation instruction Auto-blocking option. For more information about blocking groups, see Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE.

8.3 Auto-update and validation It is possible to use certain encoders for automatic update of

• staff cards • meeting room cards • blocking cards • local code cards (also requires the option Local codes; see 8.13) • cancel cards • calendar cards

If desired, auto-updated cards can automatically also be validated. Another way to validate cards is that the cardholder enters a PIN code e.g. once a day at a certain validation lock, such as the main entrance. When the card has been validated, it will be able to access all concerned doors according to the access pattern that is set up for the user. When the validation time has passed, the card must be validated again. See Installation instruction Auto-update and validation option for further information.

8.4 Cameras A camera can be connected to VISIONLINE. By mounting a camera near e.g. the front or back entrance, you can in the VISIONLINE software supervise the area by looking at the camera view. If the camera is connected to an electric striking plate, the door can also be opened from the VISIONLINE software. The insignal comes e.g. from a door-bell or motion detector.

8.5 Communication Users who have been set up with e-mail address and/or cell phone number in the VISIONLINE software can be notified by e-mail and/or SMS e.g. when alarms occur, when a certain guest is checked out (also requires an online option) or when a specific guest card is used for the first time (also requires the Online advanced option). If e-mail is used, entire reports can also be sent. See Installation instruction Communication option for further information.

8.6 Data Warehouse If there is a request to keep the door events for longer than seven days, the necessary data can be exported to an SQL Server database.

Page 64: 4822114 User Manual VISIONLINE 1.12.0 - KC Server User... · 8.14 b Auto-update in lock ... In the hotel locking system VingCard VISIONLINE, the locks are standalone and battery powered;

July 5, 2012 Page 64 of 78 4822114C

8.7 Enkoa cards The Enkoa cards option is applicable if Enkoa energy savers or RFID locker locks are used at the hotel. When a guest card (of any type, i.e. also joiner, suite etc) is presented at the Enkoa energy saver of a guest room, two relays are activated, e.g. for lighting and TV respectively. When a staff card is presented at the Enkoa energy saver, only the relay for lighting etc is activated. If RFID locker locks are applicable, the guest can use any free locker. The guest card can only be used in one locker at a time, and when a locker is occupied only that guest card (and master cards for the staff) can be used in the locker. See Installation instruction Enkoa cards option for further information.

8.8 Escape/return The escape/return function allows the user to re-enter a room without card or code, in case of fire etc, during a defined time or for an infinite time after the door is closed. Only access events where PIN code has been used will be shown in the event report. See Installation instruction Escape/return option for further information.

8.9 Escape/return with events This option has the same functionality as the option described in 8.8, expect for that all types of access events will be shown in the event report.

8.10 HotSOS interface If HotSOS (Hotel Service Optimization System) is also used at the hotel, any alarm in VISIONLINE can be set up to be sent to HotSOS when it is triggered, assigned, acknowledged or completed. The user ID of the person handling the alarm, e.g. exchanging the battery in the lock, will be included. For configuration of the HotSOS interface and setup in VISIONLINE that an alarm should be sent to HotSOS, see Installation instruction HotSOS interface option for VISIONLINE.

8.11 In-Room Safes If the online option (ZigBee) is used, it is possible to have integration with safes in the guest rooms. See Installation instruction In-room safes option for more information.

8.12 IR5 Inncom can be used for infrared communication with guest doors. Daily operations when the IR5 option has been set are described in this manual; see sections 3.2 Cards, 3.5.1 Online commands for a door and 5 Online. For more information about the option, see Installation instruction IR5 (Inncom) option.

8.13 Local codes If desired, certain locks can be opened with code only. This can be useful e.g. in common premises such as a sauna, or on the back door of the hotel where late-coming guests can enter after the reception has closed. A local code is set up by a person who has a local code card. Up to nine local codes can be set up in a lock; one local code per local code card. See Installation instruction Local codes option for hotel systems for further information.

8.14 Loyalty VIP guests can be sent a card (if RFID is applicable it can also be a tag etc) in advance, and when the guest arrives in the hotel the guest does not have to wait at the front desk. The guest can instead encode the card/tag etc directly at the room lock or at an auto-update encoder, depending on what loyalty option that is applicable. The different loyalty options are described in more detail below.

8.14 a Adding pre-encoded card to room This loyalty variant also requires the Online option. If SMS should be sent to the guest when the card has been added to a room, also the Communication option is needed. With this option, any type of card — Ultralight/1k/4k/Crypto RF, magnetic or smart — can be encoded with any expiration time. The card/tag etc is encoded to room 0 and with indefinite expiration time, or any other desired expiration time. The card/tag etc is then sent to the guest in advance and when the guest arrives in the hotel, the front desk staff should perform the following steps:

1. Right click on the card in the card list and choose Add card to room ; only available if the option has been set. 2. Enter the applicable guest room number at New room and click Execute .

The function Add card to room can also be used if the guest should change from one online room to another without needing to go to the reception. The card can be added to any online guest room in the hotel. See Installation instruction Loyalty option – Add card to room for more information about the option.

Page 65: 4822114 User Manual VISIONLINE 1.12.0 - KC Server User... · 8.14 b Auto-update in lock ... In the hotel locking system VingCard VISIONLINE, the locks are standalone and battery powered;

July 5, 2012 Page 65 of 78 4822114C

8.14 b Auto-update in lock This loyalty variant also requires the Online option and the PMS Plus option. It can be used for Ultralight cards/tags. The PMS system sends information to VISIONLINE, and VISIONLINE in turn sends information to the concerned guest room online lock. When the guest arrives in the hotel, he directly presents the card/tag etc at the lock without needing to wait at the reception. Loyalty auto-update at lock can be performed without PMS if also the loyalty option Hotel chains (see 8.14e) is used. See Installation instruction Loyalty option – Auto-update in lock for more information about the option.

Note : If several guests should stay in the room, each card/tag etc needs to be presented at the lock.

8.14 c Auto-update at encoder This loyalty variant also requires the Online option and the PMS Plus option. It can be used for Ultralight/1k/4k/CryptoRF cards/tags etc and for smart cards. The PMS system sends information to VISIONLINE, and when the guest arrives he presents his card/tag etc at an auto-update encoder. The guest gets an e-mail or SMS with room number and expiration time for the card/tag etc. Loyalty auto-update at encoder can be performed without PMS if also the loyalty option Hotel chains (see 8.14e) is used. See Installation instruction Loyalty option – Auto-update in encoder for more information about the option.

Note : If several guests should stay in the room, each card/tag etc needs to be presented at the auto-update encoder.

8.14 d Auto-update using track 2 This loyalty variant also requires the PMS Plus option. It can only be used for magnetic cards. A loyalty number is encoded on track 2. When the guest checks in, PMS sends information to VISIONLINE. When the guest then arrives in the hotel he inserts his card in an auto-update encoder; track 2 is read and track 3 is encoded so the guest can enter his room. A connected printer can print a slip with room number and expiration time for the card. See Installation instruction Loyalty option – Auto-update using track 2 for more information about the option.

8.14 e Loyalty at chain hotels This loyalty variant also requires the Online option and the Communication option. It can only be used for Ultralight/ 1k/4k/CryptoRF cards. One hotel in the chain is considered as master, and in the master client information about loyalty numbers, guest names etc is imported (or entered directly in the client). New and updated loyalty information is then sent daily in encrypted form by e-mail to all slave hotels in the chain. By right clicking on a loyalty card in the loyalty card list (in the master client or any of the slave clients) and choosing Add to room , the loyalty card can be added to any online room in the hotel. When clicking Execute , the Send SMS dialog will be shown. Any text that should be sent to the guest by SMS at check-in can be entered; a default text with room number and check-out time is shown, but it is also possible to use other message templates that have been set up in the system or to enter text of your own choice. See Installation instruction Loyalty option – Hotel chains for more information about the option.

8.14 f NFC If the guest has an NFC telephone (near field communication), this can be used for check-in directly at the room lock in the hotel. This also requires the PMS Plus option. The NFC option can be used without PMS if also the loyalty option Hotel chains (see 8.14e) is used. See Installation instruction Loyalty option – NFC for more information about the option.

8.15 Online Radio frequency (RF) communication with doors can be used. Daily operations when the online operation has been set are described in this manual; see sections 3.2 Cards, 3.5.1 Online commands for a door and 5 Online. For setup of RF items and for SysMon operations, see User manual Online option. Some online functions require the Online advanced option, see 8.16.

8.16 Online advanced The online functions that are considered as advanced are:

• Live tracking of users • Various network alert reports, e.g. about offline doors • Setting and clearing stand open • Emergency closing doors; emergency opening also requires the Safety option, see 8.21 • Searching for a specific card holder in the event report including Track card • Door ajar • Sequential intruder; see 4.12 • Wandering intruder; see 4.13 • Watch list; this also requires the Communication option, see Installation instruction Communication option

for details • Online events related to reporting cards • Online events for ‘door opened from inside’ • Remote blocking and unblocking; see 5.2 and 5.3 respectively • Notification on first entry; this also requires the Communication option, see Installation instruction Communication

option for details

July 5, 2012 Page 66 of 78 4822114C

8.17 Online via cable (RS-485) The Online via cable (RS-485) option is used when elevator readers or remote controllers should be connected online to the VISIONLINE system. RS-485 remote controllers can e.g. be used at guest entrance doors such as pool doors, since the RS-485 remote controllers can be set up with extra grace time. In this way, the guest can use the pool etc for some hours extra after check-out.

8.18 Open Card printer Printers that can use the Open Card protocol, e.g. Datacard printers marked with OC on the label, can be connected directly to VISIONLINE for printing/encoding magnetic cards. For printing on cards, the card encoding must be made from the PMS Plus interface. See Installation instruction Open Card printer option for further information.

8.19 PMS Plus VISIONLINE cards can be issued through a Property Management System (PMS). The PMS Plus option can be used for issuing all types of cards for guests as well as for staff. PMS Plus can also be used for preparing auto-update data etc. The Lock Application Starter service handles PMS; however only in network installations. Lock Application Starter is by default configured as Automatic , which means that the service will start automatically every time the computer is started. Note: Customers who since previously have the PMS 1511 option do not need to change to PMS Plus unless they need the PMS Plus functionality; online, staff card issuing, preparation of auto-update data etc.

8.20 POS/Track 2 Reading track 2 is applicable when using VISIONLINE together with a POS system. If the POS/track 2 option is used, all magnetic guest cards can have track 2 data included on the cards.

8.21 Safety If online emergency opening should be available for other operators than distributor, the Safety option is used. The Online advanced option is also required. With the Safety option, the command Emergency open is available in the Online tab of the navigation window and also in the right-click menu for online doors in the door list. An emergency opened door will be set in emergency stand open mode, i.e. be unlocked until it is online emergency closed; see 5.1 Emergency close. The time when emergency open was set will be shown in the door list.

Appendix D: Lock LEDs and sounds and what they mean Depending on lock model, the VingCard lock gives sounds and/or LED signals, alerting the card holder about what is happening in the lock. Each sound is here represented by a symbol.

Symbols Below is a description of the different symbols and the sounds that they represent: � this symbol represents the three tick sound, three very short ticks come together to a “frrrrt”

this symbol represents a beep (there are different kinds of beeps — long, short and high-pitched)

� this symbol represents a “chirp”, a number of sounds with different tones put together, reminds you of a bird’s call

� this symbol represents a “tick” sound

� this symbol represents a “click” sound

Different combinations of the LEDs and sounds can appear, and mean different things.

LEDs and sounds The different LEDs and sounds follow, with a list of examples of when the sound occurs: 1 LED: Short GREEN flash Sound : � (OK, acceptance signal) — access — initiation completed — read-out completed — sys-ID exchange successful

2 LED: Short GREEN flash Sound : �+ � — soft reset

3 LED: Four short YELLOW flashes

followed by one short GREEN flash Sound : ++++� (high-pitched beep)

— battery alarm, access granted (battery alarm followed by access chirp)

4 LED: Four short YELLOW flashes Sound : +++ (high-pitched beep) — battery alarm, access denied

5 LED: Long GREEN flash Sound : (activate function; short beep) — the first time a function card is presented at a lock, the function is activated

(stand open, blocking, privacy) — clearance

6 LED: Two short GREEN flashes Sound : (deactivate function; short beep) the second time a function card is presented at a lock, the function is deactivated

(stand open, blocking, privacy)

7 LED: Three short RED flashes Sound : — read-out card is full — sys-ID exchange failed — power open failed

Cont. LEDs and sounds 8 LED: Three very short YELLOW flashes Sound : � — alerts the staff that the lock is dead-bolted

9 LED: Three very short YELLOW flashes

followed by three short YELLOW flashes Sound : �+���

— alerts the staff that the lock is blocked for one or more user groups

10 LED: YELLOW continuous light Sound : ������� — lock is communicating with a cancel card, initiation card, calendar card, read-out card or read-out card

advanced; alerts the user not to extract the card until after the finishing chirp and/or short green flash, or the operation will not be successful

— Note : The yellow continuous light starts when the card is presented at the lock. If there is a yellow continuous light even if no card has been presented, the lock needs to be reprogrammed. See below for sound signal.

11 LED: YELLOW continuous light Sound : +�+ +�+ +� — if the unit gives a continuous yellow light without a card presented at the lock, the unit must

be reprogrammed

Note : There are two possible sounds for an emergency opening. Which one you get depends on whether you have regular emergency opening or emergency stand open. Emergency stand open means that the door has to be locked by an emergency card once it has been opened by one. 12 LED: Short GREEN flash Sound : � — regular emergency opening 13 LED: One short and one long GREEN flash Sound : �+ — emergency stand open, set 14 LED: Short GREEN flash Sound : — emergency stand open, clear

Appendix E: Daily use Below is some information about the daily use that the users in the system should have.

Open VingCard door lock

Ultralight/1k/4k/CryptoRF cards The card should be held in close proximity to the lock. When the door unlocks, there will be a short green LED flash. The door will automatically lock again unless the on/off function is activated.

Magnetic cards and smart cards For smart cards, hold the card with the chip upwards and for magnetic cards, hold the card with the magnetic stripe downwards. Insert the card horizontally in the lock and pull out when it cannot be inserted any further. Do not bend the card when inserting or retracting. When the door unlocks, there will be a short green flash and a chirp sound. The door will automatically lock again unless the on/off function is activated.

Card handling The smart/4k/CryptoRF card must be treated with care and VingCard recommends keeping it in a protective pocket when not in use. Store the card in a safe way where it cannot be bent. For smart cards, also avoid exposing the card to water, dirt or direct sunlight.

Appendix F: Daily use for an elevator reader with relay modules or gateway relays

Note: If an elevator reader is instead used in a configuration without relay modules or gateway relays, the operations described in this appendix are performed as for an ordinary lock; see sections 2.2.1 Guest card, 2.2.10 Staff card, 2.3.6 Blocking card and 2.3.3 Stand open card.

Note: The RFID elevator reader may not be available in all countries.

To assign individual access Guest cards of different types, e.g. guest cards, joiner cards and guest advanved cards will give access to an elevator reader relay/output (corresponding to for example a floor) if the room that is assigned for the card is included in the relay room interval. See Installation manual Elevator reader for VISIONLINE for more information. A common room on a guest card will give access to outputs which have the common room assigned.

Note: The common rooms that are assigned to an output will only give access to Ultralight/1k cards (elevator reader VISIONLINE RFID) or magnetic cards (elevator reader VISIONLINE mag/smart). Guest advanced cards, which are always smart/4k/CryptoRF cards, can however be given access to any common rooms etc.

Example: The guest card in the picture to the right is an Ultralight card/1k card (elevator reader VISIONLINE RFID) or magnetic card (elevator reader VISIONLINE mag/smart) which will give access to relays which include room 108 in their room intervals, and also to relays which have the common room Pool assigned.

Note: Elevator reader relays are automatically switched based on the room number or common rooms selected, and do not appear in the guest card dialog. There are alternatives for assigning common access to restaurant floors etc, see To assign common access in this appendix.

Staff cards will give access to the elevator reader relays which are marked when issuing the card. Example: The staff card in the following picture will give access to 1st Floor Relay and 2nd Floor Relay, and also to all doors on floors 1 and 2.

Cancel cards and power down cards will function as normally. Blocking cards will block one or more user groups from certain relays (see the section To block a user group from an elevator reader relay in this appendix for details). Stand open cards will set one or more relays in stand open mode (see the section To set an elevator reader relay in stand open mode in this appendix for details). One time cards will not have the one-time-function in the elevator reader, but function as ordinary access cards until they expire. Note: Emergency cards will activate all outputs connected to the elevator reader.

July 5, 2012 Page 75 of 78 4822114C

To assign common access For floors that should be accessed by all guest cards, for example a restaurant floor, the concerned output must be set up to accept all cards in the guest room range. It is also possible to set up 28 common rooms for each output. See setup of an elevator reader relay in Installation manual Elevator reader for VISIONLINE for more information. Restaurants etc. which should be accessed by all guests can be set up as common rooms in the VISIONLINE software. Common rooms are all doors that have been set up to be of type ‘Guest Common’ or ‘PMS Common’ – see the section about door setup in Setup manual VingCard VISIONLINE. Note: The common rooms that are assigned to an output will only give access to Ultralight/1k cards (elevator reader VISIONLINE RFID) or magnetic cards (elevator reader VISIONLINE mag/smart). For guest advanced cards, which are always smart/4k/CryptoRF cards, it is however possible to choose access to any rooms in the hotel.

To block a user group from an elevator reader relay One or more user groups can be blocked from certain elevator reader relays; e.g. corresponding to certain floors. This is done by issuing a blocking card for the relays that are to be blocked.

1. Double click on Blocking under the Cards tab in the navigation window.

2. Select a card holder by clicking the

button;

double click on a name or mark the name and click Select . 3. Choose the expiration time of the

card: enter the number of days for which the card shall be valid, or mark the

button

next to the Expiration time field and mark a date in the calendar (or enter a date manually). The chosen date will appear at Expiration time ; the number of days will change accordingly. 4. At Block User groups , check the user group(s) you want to block. Note: All groups except for the ones that are unchecked will be blocked — also user groups that are added to the system after the blocking mode has been set in the lock(s). It is not possible to block the user group to which the card holder belongs. 5. At Doors , check the relays from which you want to block the user group(s) — in this example 2nd Floor

Relay and 3rd Floor Relay. Click on the plus sign in front of a door area to expand the area. 6. Click Make Card . 7. Present a card at the encoder.

Present the card at the elevator reader. Depending on reader model, there will be a long green LED flash and/or a short beep signal. The concerned relays will be blocked. The relays will be set in blocking mode when the blocking card is first presented, and be reset again when the blocking card is presented a second time. Note: The No. of days regards the card’s validity, not the validity of the function.

Настройте связку системы электронных замков и шахматки TL: WebPMS, чтобы легко присваивать электронный ключ определенному физическому номеру.

Когда интеграция настроена, при заселении гостя вы сможете быстро выпустить карту для номера прямо в TL: WebPMS. Карта будет работать столько же, сколько длится проживание гостя.

Протокол WebSocket, с помощью которого реализован обмен данными, официально поддерживает версии операционной системы Windows 8 и выше. Если версия вашей операционной системы Windows ниже 8, обновите ОС для работы с электронными ключами.

Обратите внимание: действия, описанные в этой статье, нужно проделать на компьютере с установленной системой VingCard — VISIONLINE. Но эту программу нужно выключить перед использованием Агента «TravelLine: WebPMS».

Установите и настройте Агента «TravelLine: WebPMS»

Агент «TravelLine: WebPMS» — это приложение для Windows, через которое VISIONLINE («мозги» замко́в VingCard) и TL: WebPMS обмениваются данными. Именно Агент «TravelLine: WebPMS»  позволяет прошивать электронные замки из шахматки.

1. Перейдите в раздел «Настройки» → «Электронные ключи» и скачайте Агента «TravelLine: WebPMS».

1281a5ba0e7ec6af5e4b06b9af996803.png

Примечание: Windows 7 не поддерживает websocket, поэтому Агент TravelLine: WebPMS не будет работать на Windows 7 и ниже. Поддержка агента есть на Windows 8 и 10.

2. Чтобы получить доступ к файлам, зайдите в «Загрузки» на компьютере, нажмите правой кнопкой мыши на скачанный файл и выберите «Извлечь все…». В открывшемся окне поставьте галочку «Показать извлеченные файлы» и нажмите «Извлечь».

3. В открывшемся окне запустите файл TravelLineAgentSetup и следуйте инструкциям Мастера установки.

7.jpg

4. Когда вы запустите Агента «TravelLine: WebPMS», в правой нижней части экрана он покажет уведомление о том, что не может подключиться к серверу без ключа. Чтобы он заработал, нужно ввести ключ. Для этого откройте шахматку TL: WebPMS, зайдите в «Настройки» → вкладка «Электронные ключи» и скопируйте ключ из поля «Ключ для интеграции с внешней системой».

1974dbe08f698a6f8c5a45f82ab9c4a8.png

5. Нажмите правой кнопкой на иконку агента «TravelLine: WebPMS» в строке уведомлений и нажмите «Настройки». В открывшемся окне в строке «Идентификатор средства размещения в TravelLine» укажите id номер объекта в TravelLine, в строку «Секретный ключ доступа» вставьте скопированный ключ.

12da646a773a2d8a12bd2218381affd7.png

Настройте VISIONLINE

1. Откройте VISIONLINE и введите логин и пароль. Перейдите в «Списки» → «Устройства» и нажмите «Добавить».

3_________.png

2. Откроется новое окно:

  • в поле «Имя» укажите любое слово;

  • поле «Описание» можно не заполнять;

  • в выпадающем списке «Тип» выберите PMS Plus (TCP/IP);

  • в поле «IP адрес» укажите 127.0.0.1;

  • в поле «Порт» укажите 4000;

  • нажмите «Новый».

mceclip4.png

Обратите внимание: Если вы планируете запускать Агента «TravelLine: WebPMS» на другом компьютере, укажите IP-адрес этого компьютера и убедитесь, что настройки Firewall на компьютере с VISIONLINE разрешают входящие TCP-подключения по порту, указанному в поле «Порт».

3. Убедитесь, что для энкодера карт в VISIONLINE настроено положение «Сервер», а не «Компьютер».

Если уже есть устройство в режиме «Компьютер», создайте его дубль в режиме «Сервер» или удалите его и создайте заново в режиме «Сервер». Чтобы создать новое устройство:

  • перейдите в «Списки» → «Устройства» и нажмите «Добавить».

  • укажите любое имя;

  • выберите тип Mifare/RFID;

  • в выпадающем списке «Имя считывающего устройства» выберите установленный энкодер;

  • укажите PMS адрес: введите любое число от 1 до 99. Убедитесь, что в VISIONLINE нет других устройств с таким же PMS адресом;

  • нажмите «Новый».

mceclip6.png

Настройте TL: WebPMS

1. Откройте TL: WebPMS, зайдите в «Настройки» и перейдите во вкладку «Электронные ключи».

2. В поле «Имя компьютера с VISIONLINE» укажите имя или IP-адрес компьютера, на котором запущен VISIONLINE. Если Агент «TravelLine: WebPMS» и VISIONLINE работают на одном компьютере, укажите адрес 127.0.0.1.

3. В поле «TCP-порт VISIONLINE» укажите 4000.

4. В поле «Код устройства чтения/записи карт» поставьте то же число, что в поле «PMS адрес» в настройках VISIONLINE (см. п. 4 в разделе «Настроить VISIONLINE»).

7c08bd817a1f9b44b41d3dbc26aa0b2f.png

5. Перейдите в раздел «Номерной фонд» → вкладка «Номерной фонд» и убедитесь, что в колонке «№ в замковой системе» все номера указаны точно так же, как в разделе VISIONLINE «Двери». Если эти названия не будут совпадать, у вас не получится прошить ключ из TL: WebPMS.
