Property Management System - Communication Interface  
Overview  
Chapter 1 Overview  
This document is a description of the interface between the NEC NEAX2400 IMS  
(hereafter referred to as the NEAX) and the hotel’s Property Management System  
(PMS). This document contains almost all (see below) of the information specified  
in the NEAX2400 IMS Hotel System PMS Interface Specifications (document ND-  
90265 (E) Issue 2), and is intended to replace it.  
The PMS and NEAX may communicate using either an asynchronous or  
bisynchronous (BSC) method over a serial line. The transmission protocols are  
thoroughly described in the Architecture section. The descriptions of the messages  
transmitted are in the Descriptions section. The formats of the messages are in the  
Formats section. For a complete list of all messages, please see Appendix C,  
Information specified in the NEAX2400 IMS Hotel System PMS Interface  
Specifications document, but not included in this document are the messages  
specific to Model 120. Those messages are 56-3, 61-2, 58-1, 58-2, 58-3, 58-4 and  
58-5. These messages are for the Directory Assistance Interface [D-88] feature,  
which is not used in the United States.

Property Management System - Communication Interface  
Architecture  
Chapter 2 Architecture  
The PMS communicates with the NEAX over one or more serial cables. A  
maximum of three lines can be provided as data links between the NEAX and the  
PMS.  
The three lines are designated as Line 1, Line 2 and Line 3. Line 1 is used for  
Hotel Processing messages; Line 2 and Line 3 are used for Interactive  
messages.  
Hotel Processing messages, such as Check In, Check Out and Message  
Waiting Lamp control, have less severe real-time requirements than  
interactive messages. Line 1 is only utilized for these messages and they will  
never be sent over Line 2 or Line 3.  
Interactive messages are the Direct Data Entry messages and Maid Status  
Answerback messages. These messages require real-time interaction  
between the PMS and the NEAX and can therefore be isolated from the  
Hotel Processing messages. If Line 2 is installed, these messages will be  
transmitted over that line. If Line 2 and Line 3 are installed, these messages  
will load share over both lines. If only Line 1 is installed, these messages  
will be transmitted over Line 1.  
The use of Line 1 is mandatory. If only Line 1 is installed, all messages are  
transmitted over it. Also, if Model 60 is being used, only Line 1 is necessary,  
as all of the Interactive messages are exclusive to Model 90.  
It is very rare for Line 2 or Line 3 to be required. They are only needed if the  
traffic between the PMS and the NEAX is to be exceptionally heavy. And  
even the heavy traffic should only require Line 2.  
The PMS may communicate with the NEAX through either an  
asynchronous transmission protocol or a bisynchronous transmission (BSC)  
protocol.

Transmission  
Protocol  
Before a message can be sent, a start sequence (also called a selecting sequence)  
must be sent to urge the receiver to receive the data. Every transmission sequence  
will begin with the sender sending a start sequence.  
The start sequence is a three byte sequence:

Table 2-3 Base Message Format  
The message format breaks down as follows:  
STX -- Start of text block. (One byte - 02H.)  
SA -- System Address. (One byte - 1[31H].)  
UA -- I/O Unit Address. (One byte - ![21H].)  
EI -- Entry Index. (One byte - L[4CH].)  
FTC -- Feature Code. (See below.) A list is provided in Appendix C, Feature  
MSC -- Message Counter. This represents the length of the message. The count  
of characters starts at the FTC field and ends at the last character of the body of  
the message, not including the ETX. If the ETX character does not immediately  
follow the character specified by the message counter, an invalid message is  
assumed.  
FC -- Function Code. This specifies the individual operation and processing for  
the feature designated by the Feature Code (FTC). A list is provided in  
ETX -- End of text block. (One byte - 03H.)  
BCC -- Block Check Code. This is computed by an exclusive OR of the  
message from the SA to the ETX (inclusive). Detection of an STX starts the  
computation (but the STX is not included). Detection of an ETX stops the  
computation (and the ETX is included). (One byte.)  
Feature Codes range in value from 00 to FF (hex). These codes define the Major  
Category Codesfor service features.  
Codes from 80 to FF are used as Violation Codes. When a specific message  
received from the PMS cannot be processed for some reason, 80 (hex) is added to  
the received Feature Code so that it will be handled as a Violation Code. If the  
NEAX regards a text as a Violation Code, the system data of the NEAX may be  
assigned so that a text of this type is returned to the PMS. Therefore, when the PMS  
has received a Violation Code, provisions should be made for the PMS to print out  
this violation.

Property Management System - Communication Interface  
Architecture  
A Violation Code message will be sent to the PMS in the following cases:  
When the message counter does not match the number of characters received.  
When a station number not existing in the NEAX is specified in the message  
data from the PMS.  
Upon receipt of an invalid Wake Up time (e.g. 25:00).  
Transmission  
Sequence  
The sequence of transmitting a message is slightly different for the PMS and  
NEAX. However, both sequences follow the same outline.  
The party which desires to send must first bid for sender rights. This is done by  
sending the start sequence (see Figure 2-1). Once the start sequence has been sent  
and acknowledged, that party is now the senderand the other party is the  
receiver. (Unless both parties have simultaneously sent a start sequence. If this  
occurs, the PMS must relinquish sending rights to the NEAX.) The receiver must  
then respond with an answer control code (ACK, NAK, DLE <, DLE :, DLE ?)  
before the Sender Timer (see Sender Timeron page 10) expires.  
If no answer control code is received, the sender will resend the start sequence and  
again wait for an answer control code.  
When an answer control code is received, the sender must respond before the  
Receiver Timer (see Receiver Timeron page 10) expires. If the answer control  
code is an ACK, the sender must send the message. Again, the receiver must  
respond with an answer control code before the Sender Timer expires.  
To finish the transmission sequence (regardless of its success), the sender must  
send an End Code (EOT) to release sending rights. Once that is done, both parties  
may begin the process over again by bidding for the sender rights.  
In the transmission sequence figures that follow, these message names are used:

Property Management System - Communication Interface  
Timers  
The following timers are used to maintain data transmission:  
Sender Timer  
Upon sending a start sequence, message text or query, this timer begins counting  
and stops counting upon receiving a valid answer control code. This timer is set to  
one (1) second. If a timeout occurs after the transmission of a start sequence, a start  
sequence will be resent up to 15 times. If a timeout occurs during the transmission  
of a message text or query, a query is sent up to 32 times.  
Receiver Timer  
Upon transmission of a positive acknowledgment for a start sequence or a message  
text, this timer begins counting and stops counting upon receiving a message text  
or an end code. This timer is set to 35 seconds. If a timeout occurs, the sender loses  
send rights.  
Cabling  
When the PMS is connected to the NEAX through a modem, the cables should just  
be straight throughcables. There should be no crossing.  
Considerations  
When the PMS is directly connected to the NEAX, use the following pin  
assignments:

Message Descriptions  
Chapter 3 Message Descriptions  
There are several message groups:  
Data Link Maintenance Messages  
Maid Status  
Message Waiting Lamp Control  
Restriction Control  
Check In/Check Out (Model 60)  
Check In/Check Out (Model 90)  
Wake Up/Group Announcement  
Room Move/Swap/Copy (Model 60)  
Room Data Change  
Extension Report  
Room Recovery (Model 60)  
Room Recovery (Model 90)  
Direct Data Entry (Model 90)  
Extension Connection  
Each message group will be described briefly in the following sections.  
The NEAX equates rooms with extensions, one extension per room. The exception  
to this is the suite room feature. When this feature is activated in the NEAX, a  
primary extension represents a group of extensions in one or more rooms. For a  
suite room, the PMS should reference only the primary extension in its messages  
to the NEAX. All associated extensions will inherit the attributes of the primary  
extension and should effectively be ignored by the PMS.  
Data Link Maintenance  
These are the messages used by the PMS and NEAX to maintain communication.  
The PMS must regularly send Nop Test messages with an interval of no more than  
60 seconds, and no less than 500 milliseconds, between each message. The NEAX  
will immediately respond with either a Nop Test Normal Answer, under normal  
conditions, or a Nop Test Recover Answer, if a database recovery for the NEAX is  
needed.  
Nop Test Normal Answer -- Whenever a Nop Test message is sent by the PMS,  
the NEAX responds by sending this message, unless the NEAX has just  
finished an error recovery.  
Nop Test Recover Answer -- If the NEAX has been performing an error  
recovery, this message is sent in response to the Nop Test in the place of the Nop  
Test Normal Answer message.

Message Descriptions  
Property Management System - Communication Interface  
Recovery Start Report -- After receiving the Nop Test Recover Answer  
message, the PMS must download NEAX database information (see Room  
28). This message notifies the NEAX of the incoming download.  
Recovery End Report -- Reports to the NEAX that the PMS database download  
is complete.  
Data Link Release Request -- Used by either system to request a temporary  
release of the data link.  
Data Link Release Confirmation -- Reply to the above message to acknowledge  
data link release request.  
Extension Number Request -- Used by the PMS to request the current status of  
extension numbers.  
Nop Test -- Under the standard protocol the PMS must send this message at  
least every 60 seconds, but not less than 500 milliseconds, to demonstrate that  
communication has been maintained.  
Data Link Failure  
Either system may recognize a loss of communication by one or more of the  
following events:  
Lack of system traffic for a 60 second interval: the Nop Test message from the  
PMS and the Nop Test Answer message (either Normal or Recover) from the  
NEAX insure that at least one message should be received less than every 60  
seconds.  
Detection of hardware problems within the physical data. Note that the NEAX  
will put EIA pin number 6 (Data Set Ready) into the off state, indicating data  
set not ready, when the data link has been effectively turned off in the NEAX,  
either for maintenance or because of repeated, excessive errors.  
Excessive protocol errors (NAKed transmission, ENQs with no ACK/NAK  
response).  
Other conditions, such as unavailability of buffers or queuing capability, which  
result in an implied status change message which cannot be communicated to  
the other system.  
Release of the data link requested and confirmed.  
A data link failure will necessitate a database room exchange recovery procedure  
only if any implied status change cannot be communicated to the other system and  
cannot be queued for later transmission. If no messages have been lost, and can  
instead be retransmitted, no database recovery is necessary.

Property Management System - Communication Interface  
Message Descriptions  
Release for  
Maintenance  
Either system may request a temporary release of the data link for maintenance  
purposes by transmitting a Data Link Release Request message to the other system.  
The receiving system will perform any necessary processing and return the Data  
Link Release Confirmation message as soon as possible.  
During the NEAX maintenance, the PMS may continue to send Nop Test  
messages, provided that EIA pin 6 (Data Set Ready) from the NEAX is in the on”  
condition. The NEAX will turn on the EIA pin 6 onand respond to Nop Test  
messages when maintenance is completed.  
While the data link is release on request of the PMS, the NEAX will continue to  
attempt to read Nop Test messages from the PMS. The PMS may set EIA pin 20  
(Data Terminal Ready) to the offcondition to indicate that reading should not be  
attempted.  
When EIA pin 20 is in the onstate and a Nop Test message is received from the  
PMS, the NEAX will assume that PMS maintenance has ended and that  
communication can be resumed.  
NEAX Operations  
During Loss of  
Communication  
The NEAX will continue to support the basic telecommunications functions if the  
data link or PMS become unavailable. Upon detection of a data link failure, the  
NEAX will automatically switch to the Link Failed Modeto perform the  
following tasks:  
Enable Check In and Check Out on the Attendant Console and Front Desk  
Terminal.  
Continue support of Message Waiting and/or Controlled Restriction if both  
features are active in the NEAX.  
Recovery from  
Loss of  
Communication  
In the event of a PMS failure, it is assumed that Check In and Check Out must be  
done manually and entered into the PMS system at a later time. The PMS should  
not resume transmission of the Nop Test message and attempt to reestablish  
communication until the database has been brought up to date. This prevents the  
transmission of incorrect data prematurely through the database recovery  
procedure.  
In cases where the PMS has remained operational during a data link failure, the  
PMS will continue to attempt sending Nop Test messages. A Nop Test Answer  
message (either Normal or Recover) from the NEAX will indicate that  
communication has been reestablished.  
A Nop Test Normal Answer message indicates that the NEAX has had no status  
change during the data link failure period and has automatically switched back to  
the normal operating mode of an active data link.  
A Nop Test Recover Answer message indicates that the NEAX has failed and that  
status memory has been initialized for each room with the following:  
Room Status is Occupied (Checked In),  
Controlled Restriction Level is set to the preassigned restriction,  
Message Waiting Lamps are off,  
Wake Up times are cleared.

Property Management System - Communication Interface  
Message Descriptions  
Message Waiting Lamp Control  
These messages are used to control the message waiting lamp on an extension. The  
message waiting lamp is used to notify a guest about the existence of text messages.  
If the message is designated Model 90then that message is only used by the  
Model 90 version. The other messages are used by both versions.  
When the NEAX is configured to use the suite room feature, the primary extension  
represents all extensions in that suite. Therefore, a message set to the primary  
extension controls the message waiting lamps on all extensions in that suite.  
MWL On -- This message is sent by the PMS to turn on a message waiting lamp.  
MWL Off -- This message is sent by the PMS to turn off a message waiting  
lamp.  
MWL On -- This message is sent by the NEAX to notify the PMS that a  
message waiting lamp has been turned on.  
MWL Off -- This message is sent by the NEAX to notify the PMS that a  
message waiting lamp has been turned off.  
MWL Status -- This message is sent by the PMS. (Model 90)  
MWL On (FDT) -- This message is sent by the NEAX to notify the PMS that a  
message waiting lamp has been turned on by the front desk. (Model 90)  
MWL Off (FDT) -- This message is sent by the NEAX to notify the PMS that a  
message waiting lamp has been turned off by the front desk. (Model 90)  
Restriction Control  
There are two messages. They are identical except that one is originated by the  
PMS, the other by the NEAX. Each message simply transmits the restriction code.  
Both the Model 60 and the Model 90 version use these messages.  
Check In/Check Out (Model 60)  
These messages do not represent unique features as such, but are a convenient tool  
for activating a sequence of functions commonly performed when a guest checks  
in or out of a room. With one exception, all of these messages are used exclusively  
for Model 60. The sole exception is Check Out Outgoing Call Report, which is also  
used by Model 90.  
When the NEAX is configured to use the suite room feature, the primary extension  
represents all extensions in that suite. Therefore, a message set to the primary  
extension controls the status of all extensions in that suite.  
Check In 1 -- Sets the Room Status to Stay and cancels Room Cut-Off. This  
message is sent by the PMS. This message should not be used. Use Check In 3  
instead.  
Check Out -- Sets the Room Status to Out and sets Room Cut-Off. This message  
is sent by the PMS.

Message Descriptions  
Property Management System - Communication Interface  
Check Out Message Waiting Lamp Off Report -- This message is sent by the  
NEAX to report that the Message Category Frontof that specific guest room  
is Off.  
Check Out Message Waiting Lamp On Report -- This message is sent by the  
NEAX to report that the Message Category Frontof that specific guest room  
is On.  
Check In 2 -- Same as Check In 1, but also sets the Language and Room Stay.  
This message should not be used. Use Check In 3 instead.  
Check In 3 -- Same as Check In 2, but also sets the Guest Name and Group  
Number.  
Check Out Outgoing Call Report -- The NEAX sends this message if, after  
receiving a check out message from the PMS, it determines that the guest  
extension is engaged in an outgoing call.  
Check Out Message Waiting Report -- This message is generated by the NEAX  
to report the status of waiting messages.  
Check In/Check Out (Model 90)  
These messages do not represent unique features as such, but are a convenient tool  
for activating a sequence of functions commonly performed when a guest checks  
in or out of a room. All of these messages are used exclusively for Model 90. There  
is also the addition of the Check Out Outgoing Call Report message which is  
technically a Model 60 message, but is available for Model 90.  
When the NEAX is configured to use the suite room feature, the primary extension  
represents all extensions in that suite. Therefore, a message set to the primary  
extension controls the status of all extensions in that suite.  
Check In -- This message is sent by the PMS to notify the NEAX of a check in.  
This cancels Room Cut-Off.  
Check Out -- This message is sent by the PMS to notify the NEAX of a check  
out.  
Check In Cancellation -- This message is sent by the PMS. It cancels a  
previously sent check in message. The room status is set to Vacant.”  
Check Out Cancellation -- This message is sent by the PMS. It cancels a  
previously sent check out message. Under some circumstances the NEAX may  
fail to perform this function which means that the guest must be checked in  
again.  
Room Change -- This message is sent by the PMS to notify the NEAX of a guest  
room change.  
Provisional Check In -- This is a provisional check in message generated by the  
NEAX. The room status is set to Stayand Room Cut-Off is cancelled.  
Provisional Check Out -- This is a provisional check out message generated by  
the NEAX. If maid status is not performed, room status is set to Vacant;if  
maid status is performed, room status is set to Out.”  
Check Out Message Waiting Report -- This message is generated by the NEAX  
upon receiving a check out message to report the status of waiting messages.

Message Descriptions  
Wake Up/Group Announcement  
These messages allow for the management of wake up calls and group  
announcements. Both the Model 60 and the Model 90 version use these messages.  
Wake Up Setting (NEAX) -- This message is sent by the NEAX to notify the  
PMS that a wake up call has been set.  
Wake Up Cancellation (NEAX) -- This message is sent by the NEAX to notify  
the PMS that a wake up call has been cancelled.  
Wake Up Execution Result -- This message is sent by the NEAX to report the  
results of the wake up call.  
Wake Up Setting(PMS) -- This message is sent by the PMS to set a wake up call.  
Wake Up Cancellation (PMS) -- This message is sent by the PMS to cancel a  
wake up call.  
Group Announcement Setting (NEAX) -- This message is sent by the NEAX to  
notify the PMS that a group announcement has been set.  
Group Announcement Cancellation (NEAX) -- This message is sent by the  
NEAX to notify the PMS that a group announcement has been cancelled.  
Group Announcement Execution Result -- This message is sent by the NEAX  
to report the results of a group announcement.  
Group Announcement Setting (PMS) -- This message is sent by the PMS to set  
a group announcement.  
Group Announcement Cancellation (PMS) -- This message is sent by the PMS  
to cancel a group announcement.  
Room Move/Swap/Copy (Model 60)  
These messages are used to transfer room information. All of these messages are  
used exclusively for Model 60. The messages are:  
Room Move -- This takes the data for one room and moves it to another room.  
This will leave the second extensions maid status unchanged, cancels Room  
Cut-Off and sets all other data to that of the first extension. The first extensions  
maid status is set to 1, Room Cut-Off is set, Do Not Disturb and Message  
Waiting is reset, Wake Up is cancelled, Language is set to Undefinedand  
Guest Name and Group Number are cleared.  
Room Swap -- This takes the data for one room and moves it to another room,  
while taking the other rooms data and moving it to the first room.  
Room Copy -- This exactly copies the data for one room to another room  
without changing the data for the first room. The PMS should take care to be  
consistent in the manner in which this message is used. If the PMS sends a  
Room Copy message after check in, it should send a Room Copy message after  
check out.

Message Descriptions  
Property Management System - Communication Interface  
Room Data Change  
These messages are used to change the room information while a guest is still  
checked in. Messages designated Model 60are only used by the Model 60  
version; Model 90are only used by the Model 90 version. Messages with neither  
designation may be used by either version. The messages are as follows:  
Room Data Change 60 -- This is used to change room data after check in. This

Property Management System - Communication Interface  
Message Descriptions  
Room Recovery (Model 60)  
These messages are used by the PMS to update the database in the Model 60  
version. These messages will usually only be sent if requested by the NEAX using  
the Nop Test Recover Answer message. However, the PMS may, if necessary,  
initiate a recovery with a direct request from the NEAX.  
Before any recovery messages can be sent, the PMS must first send a Recovery  
Start Report message. After all information about rooms has been sent by recovery  
messages, a Recovery End Report message must be sent. Both of these messages  
are defined in the Data Link Maintenance section.  
The recovery messages are grouped into three sets of four messages. Within each  
set of four messages, the format of the messages is identical, except for the  
Function Codes, which specify the message. Each set of messages contains more  
fields (and can therefore convey more information) than the preceding set.  
Each set of four messages is composed of two pairs of messages. The PMS must  
use the same set of recovery messages during the recovery period. The first pair of  
messages is used when the PMS, in normal operation (i.e. not error recovery),  
needs to update the information on a given extension. The second pair of messages  
is used during recovery. This pair will only be used in response to the NEAX  
sending a Nop Test Recover Answer or Recovery Request message.  
The first message (of either pair) is used by the PMS as an update/ request for  
information on an extension. If a field contains a valid entry, the NEAX database  
is updated; if the field is entirely filled with NULL (00H) characters, it is a request  
for the NEAX to send the value from the NEAX database. The second message is  
the response from the NEAX to the PMS.  
Room Image Set 1 -- Contains the following fields: Extension, Vacancy, MWL  
and Restriction Level.  
Room Image Set 2 -- In addition to the above fields, the following are added:  
Room Stay, Reserve, Language, Cleaning Status and Wake Up.  
Room Image Set 3 -- In addition to the above fields, Group Number and Group  
Announcement are added.

Property Management System - Communication Interface  
Room Recovery (Model 90)  
These messages are used by the PMS to update the database in the Model 90  
version after a failure recovery. These messages will usually only be sent if  
requested by the NEAX using the Nop Test Recover Answer message. However,  
the PMS may, if necessary, initiate a recovery with a direct request from the  
NEAX.  
Before any recovery messages can be sent, the PMS must first send a Recovery  
Start Report message. After all information about rooms has been sent by recovery  
messages, a Recovery End Report message must be sent. Both of these messages  
are defined in the Data Link Maintenance section.  
Room Data Report -- Once Recovery has been requested by the NEAX, the  
PMS uses this message to report the data for each room.  
Guest Room Secretary Telephone -- This message is used to recover data for a  
secretary telephone.  
Connecting Room -- If any rooms are connecting, this message is used to  
establish the relationship.  
Message Status Report -- This reports the status of the Message Waiting Lamp.  
Wake Up -- Any wake up data is reported by this message.  
Direct Data Entry (Model 90)  
These messages are used to send numeric information from the NEAX to the PMS.  
An employee provides this information by entering an access code at a guest room  
telephone. Then the NEAX captures all numeric input following the access code  
and sends the digits to the PMS.  
The NEAX expects to receive a response to this message within 30 seconds. If no  
response is sent, or a Negative Answer is received, a reorder tone will be heard. If  
a Positive Answer is received, the NEAX will recognize that the information has  
been entered successfully and the service set tone will be heard.  
Direct Data Entry -- This message is sent by the NEAX and contains the  
numeric information entered at the guest room telephone.  
Direct Data Entry Negative Answer -- This message is sent by the PMS to notify  
the NEAX that the numeric data sent from the specified guest room telephone  
has been rejected.  
Direct Data Entry Positive Answer -- This message is sent by the PMS to notify  
the NEAX that the numeric data sent from the specified guest room telephone  
has been accepted.

Message Descriptions  
Extension Connection  
These messages are used to associate extensions. This association will be either in  
the form of a Boss/Secretary or of a Master/Secondary. In either case, both of the  
rooms to be connected must be checked in. There may only be one Secretary for  
each Boss, but a Secretary may be assigned to multiple Bosses. A Master and  
Secondary may only be assigned on a one to one basis. The effect of the Boss/  
Secretary association is that whenever the Boss extension is called, only the  
Secretary extension will ring. In the case of Master/Secondary, whenever the  
Master extension is called, both the Master extension and the Secondary extension  
will ring. All of these messages are used exclusively for Model 90.  
Guest Room Secretary Telephone (PMS) -- This message is sent by the PMS to  
set or cancel the guest room telephone.  
Guest Room Secretary Telephone (NEAX) -- This message is sent by the  
NEAX to notify the PMS that a guest room secretary telephone has been set or  
cancelled.  
Connecting Room Set -- This message is sent by the PMS to connect a main  
room with a sub room. This message should only be sent after both rooms have  
been checked in.  
Connecting Room Cancel -- This message is sent by the PMS to cancel a room  
connection.

Note 1: Unless otherwise noted, if the data to be stored in a message field has fewer char-  
acters than the size of the field, all data must be left justified and the remaining  
characters must be filled with space (20H) characters.  
Note 2: In the message diagrams, the STX, SA, UA, EI, FTC, MSC, FC and ETX fields  
will show the actual entries needed. The remaining fields will have the name of  
the field in the box and the length of the field below. For all fields, the beginning  
byte number is listed on the top of the field.

Note 3: In the case of messages that are almost identical, the FC will be marked with  
“**”. Also, differing FTC values will be marked with “*”. The final message is  
then constructed by simply inserting the desired FC value (and, if necessary, the  
desired FTC value).  
All messages in this section have been previously defined in NEAX2400 IMS Hotel  
System PMS Interface Specification (except for one Maid Status message, which is  
so noted). The versions supported are Model 60 and Model 90; Model 120  
messages are not supported. Any message that is intended to work with only one  
version is so designated; any message that is intended to work with both has no  
special designation.  
The Feature Codes used are as follows:  
70 -- Data Link Maintenance  
11, 12, 51, 52 -- Maid Status  
13, 53 -- Message Waiting Lamp Control  
15 -- Restriction Control  
16 -- Check-In/Out (Model 60)

Data Link Maintenance  
These messages are used by the NEAX and the PMS to maintain the data link  
between them. The messages are as follows:

Message Formats  
Property Management System - Communication Interface  
Room Recovery (Model 60)  
These messages are used by the PMS to update the database in the Model 60  
version of the NEAX. First a Recovery Start Report (70-3) is sent. Then, one or  
more sets of Room Image messages are sent. Finally, a Recovery End Report (70-  
4) is sent.  
The messages are grouped into a set of four messages. Within each set of four  
messages the format of the messages is identical, except for the Function Codes,  
which specify the message. Each set of messages contain more fields (and can  
therefore convey more information) than the preceding set.  
Each set of four messages is itself a set of two pairs of messages. The first pair of  
messages is used when the PMS, in normal operation (i.e. not error recovery),  
needs to update the information on a given extension. The second pair of messages  
is used during recovery. This pair will only be used in response to the NEAX  
sending a Nop Test Recover Answer or Recovery Request message.  
The first message (of either pair) is used by the PMS as an update/ request for  
information on an extension. If a field contains a valid entry, the NEAX database  
is updated; if the field is entirely filled with NULL (00H) characters, it is a request  
for the NEAX to send the value from the NEAX database. The second message is  
the response from the NEAX to the PMS.  
17-1 -- Room Image Set 1 (Normal Request from PMS)  
17-2 -- Room Image Set 1 (Normal Answer from NEAX)  
17-3 -- Room Image Set 1 (Recovery Request from PMS)  
17-4 -- Room Image Set 1 (Recovery Answer from NEAX)  
17-5 -- Room Image Set 2 (Normal Request from PMS)  
17-6 -- Room Image Set 2 (Normal Answer from NEAX)  
17-7 -- Room Image Set 2 (Recovery Request from PMS)  
17-8 -- Room Image Set 2 (Recovery Answer from NEAX)  
17-9 -- Room Image Set 3 (Normal Request from PMS)  
17-A -- Room Image Set 3 (Normal Answer from NEAX)  
17-B -- Room Image Set 3 (Recovery Request from PMS)  
17-C -- Room Image Set 3 (Recovery Answer from NEAX)

Room Recovery (Model 90)  
These messages are only used by the Model 90. When the PMS receives a Nop Test  
Recover Answer (70-2) message, it sends one Room Data Report message for each  
room. Prior to sending any recovery messages, however, a Recovery Start Report  
(70-3) must first be sent. Recovery is concluded by sending a Recovery End Report  
(70-4).  
The Room Recovery messages use the following Function Codes:  
57-1 -- Room Data Report  
57-3 -- Guest Room Secretary Telephone

Appendix A Room Status  
Normally, room status information is managed in the PMS. Whatever the room  
status may be, the NEAX operates according to the direction provided from the  
PMS. The NEAX processes calls within the range shown in Figure A-1 If the room  
status information provided from the PMS does not coincide with the status  
currently stored by the NEAX, a status closest to the rooms status defined in the  
NEAX will be designated.

Updating Room Status Information in the NEAX  
The messages containing room status information, sent from the PMS, are as  
follows:  
Check In:  
16-1, 16-A, 16-B, 56-1  
Check Out:  
16-2, 56-2  
20-1, 56-6  
17-3, 17-7, 17-B

Room Status Change:  
Check Out Cancel:  
Recovery Room Data Report:  
56-4  
61-1  
61-3  
56-5  
57-1.  
When updating the room status from the NEAX side, the update is performed as  
follows:  
The validity of maid status messages (11-1, 11-2, 11-3, 12-1, 12-2, 12-3) is  
checked by the room status stored in the NEAX. After the status of the room has  
been updated, maid status messages are sent out to the PMS.  
Maid Status Answer Back System: maid status messages are sent out to the PMS.  
The PMS will then check the validity of the messages and provide either a positive  
or negative result to the NEAX. This is used in Model 90 only.  
For messages in Model 90, the Room Status field and the Cleaning Status field are  
provided so that details can be directed to the PMS. If certain hotels do not utilize  
maid status for their applications, the status can be designated as Vacant in the  
Check Out message.  
Clearing Room Data  
The NEAX will clear the room data when the PMS sets the status of the room to  
Vacant (Room Status=0, Cleaning Status=3)or Out of Order (Room Status=0,  
Cleaning Status=4). (Note: Group Registration is cleared at the time of Check  
Out.) Therefore, in a hotel where the PMS does not provide maid status, the PMS  
must use a Check Out message to make the status of the room become Vacant,  
and thus clear the room data.  
Dial Steps for Maid Status  
A choice of three dialing patterns is available for Maid Status in the NEAX.  
Whichever pattern is selected, the Inspection Endstep must be included.

These Status Codes are displayed on the Hospitality Attendant Console and Guest  
Information Display services for Administration Stations.  
Status Codes can be changed within a range of two characters via the NEAX.  
Status of Check Out  
The status of Departure Day can be changed by providing a Room Data Change  
message or a Room Status Change message from the PMS to the NEAX.  
Room Data Setting and Clearing in the NEAX  
Various types of data such as Wake-Up Time and Do Not Disturb status can be set  
at the NEAX regardless of the status of the room. Also, a report pertaining to the  
particular feature status can be sent to the PMS, regardless of the status of the room.  
When services are set to a particular guest station, these services are not cleared  
until the Vacant status has entered for that room. In this way, services can be set  
for a vacant room, such as Room Cut Off. Also, if it is necessary to clear Room Cut  
Off before check in, the message to clear Room Cut Off should be sent to the  
NEAX at the time the status of the room, in the PMS, has become Vacant. When  
Room Status is 0 and Cleaning Status changes from 0 to 2 at the time the Check  
Out message has been received, Group Registration is cleared (Group  
Announcement or Group Wake-Up is cleared), Room Cut Off is set, and all other  
feature statuses are held unchanged until a Cleaning Status of 3 or 4 is entered for  
that room.
