User tracking server

These parameters control display of information on the User Tracking tab.

•When the Guest Management Software is installed on a single computer with the local database option, guest tracking information is reported by the controllers and is forwarded to the Guest Management Software guest tracking server.

•When the Guest Management Software is installed on multiple computers, connection information is reported by the controllers and forwarded to the guest tracking server on one Guest Management Software station. This station then shares the information with all other Guest Management Software installations. For this type of setup, configure guest tracking as follows:

See “Tracking guests” on page 39.
