Hotel Function
The hotel function allows you to use the COMfortel 1200 as a room telephone when the PBX is used in a hotel.
The PBX provides a variety of functions that may not be suitable or may even be harmful in relation to room telephone use. Therefore, telephones configured as room telephones are blocked from not only programming functions (for example, do-not-disturb, call forwarding) but also from switching functions and special types of call initiation. This means that guests can only make and except calls. Furthermore, cleaning personnel have the option of indicating the status of the room by entering a series of numbers (cleaned, unclean, blocked).
The advantages of a system telephone compared to using standard telephones include centrally controlled delete functions when a guest checks out (data protection) as well as various convenience functions, and specially configured function keys when necessary. The functions that are still permitted on room telephones are operated in the exact same way as is described for normal telephones. With one exception: A function key assigned to the hotel room function enables the guest to set a wake-up time as well as query his call charges and his check-in time.
The following functions are still possible:
•
Making and excepting internal and external calls
•
Deleting data and call charges using the Functions menu command (this does not affect the call charge counter on the PBX)
•
The use of the caller/call/redial list as well as of the telephone book (parts of the telephone book can be blocked in the telephone)
•
Scheduled call/reminders and power dialling
•
Call charge query and wake-up time configuration using a function key
