System Components - 6
The entire HT22 system has been designed to offer a
simple way to enhance property control on a door-by-
door and person-by-person basis.
The HT22 may be used in three different modes of
operation – Main Encoder, Terminal, and Regular
Encoder.
Main Encoder
In all HT22 systems, one encoder is designated as the
Main Station, or HT22 server. This encoder contains all
of the data for the property. Other HT22 encoders may
be attached to a main encoder, but they must be in
either terminal or regular encoder mode. The main
encoder can be used to perform all reception and
management functions of the HT22 system. The main
encoder is also used to load the PP, and print reports. If
you are interfacing the HT22 system with your Property
Management System, the connection with that system is
made to the Main HT22 encoder.
Terminal
The HT22 can be used as a terminal or slave unit to a
Main encoder. This allows the hotel to connect up to
seven additional encoders to a Main Station for use in
front desk reception functions. The terminals may also
be used as a back-up for the Main Station. All of the
basic reception functions may be performed on a
Terminal Mode encoder.
Regular Encoder
The HT22 can be used as a regular encoder with a Main
Stations. This mode is used when the Main Station is
connected to a property management system (PMS).
This allows the property to have an encoder next to
each PMS terminal. When the unit is in Regular
Encoder mode, the keypad is not active. The regular
encoders will encode cards automatically through the
reception screens on the PMS.
