Testing the Switch-to-PMS Link

To test the switch-to-PMS link, have the hotel designate a room for testing. Testing the switch-to-PMS link includes the following:

■Link testing with the RS232 mini-tester (page 217)

■Netcon and data module testing (page 219)

■PMS testing and status (page 220)

■Database swap testing (page 221)

■Check-in and check-out testing (page 222)

■Message waiting testing (both manual messages and voice messages) (page 223)

■Controlled restrictions testing (page 226)

■Housekeeping status testing (page 227).

During the switch-to-PMS testing, you will use the list pms-downcommand often to view events that may indicate problems with the link. These events are found in “Appendix C — List PMS Down Events” on page 245 .
