Purpose
The output option is used to tell
the Prophet-H whether:
- It is communicating with a Property
Management System (PMS) or Printer/ Touchpad.
- To store Guest and/or Admin calls for
the nightly audit report or just print "On the Fly"
as calls are made.
- The printer is located on the System
port (for printer/touchpad operation) or SMDR port (for PMS operation).
Numbering Scheme
The following option numbers, when added
together, produce the required output to meet installation
requirements.
- 00 - Print calls immediately
"On the Fly"
- 01 - Forward calls immediately
to PMS
- 02 - Printer is on SMDR port
for PMS operation
- 04 - Store Guest Calls for
"On Demand" or Nightly Audit Report
- 08 - Store Admin Calls for
"On Demand" or Nightly Audit Report
Example: If both Guest room and Admin
calls were to be stored for the nightly audit report,
then options 04 and 08 are added together to produce option
12 which is programmed into the Prophet-H.
Property Management Systems require
that option 01 be set and since the serial printer will
be moved to the SMDR port, option 02 must also be set.
Setting the output option to 03 meets this requirement.

Use <ESC> <SHIFT #> followed
by the two digit Output Option Number to set the desired
output configuration. Note that all PMS options are ODD
numbers and when a PMS is used, the printer is installed
on the SMDR port using the Y cable provided.
