2 Functions of FideHot
2.1 General description
The FIDELIO ⇔ HOTEL SOLUTION link, FideHot, is a software product which links the
Micros-Fidelio hotel management software with the Siemens Building Technologies
HOTEL SOLUTION system software.
The link transfers check-in and check-out data, and the movements of a hotel guest
within the hotel, from the FIDELIO system to the HOTEL SOLUTION system. This data
is used to create keys, and allow or deny access to rooms.
If no data has been transferred for some time, current data from the FIDELIO system
can be transmitted to the HOTEL SOLUTION system in a database synchronization
routine initiated by the FIDELIO system.
In addition, messages from the rooms (such as "Do not disturb", "Service call"
or "Please clean room") are transferred by the HOTEL SOLUTION to the FIDELIO
system.
Reservation and energy management cannot be implemented, as the FIDELIO system
does not fulfill the necessary requirements.
