KEY CARDS
by VingCard
with Micros POS
The room key created by the VingCard encoders interfaced to the RDP system can
be used to post charges to the room using many Micros or compatible POS systems.
The flow is as follows:
- During Check-in, the RDP VingCard interface encodes the room number on track
two of the VingCard room key
- The guest can go to any POS outlet, such as the restaurant or gift shop
and hand their room key to the clerk
- The clerk swipes the room key on the Micros POS terminal, which reads
the room number from the card
- The Micros POS terminal sends the room number to RDP's POS interface,
which then looks up the guest in the room and sends the information
back to the Micros POS terminal to display.
Note: If there are non-numeric characters in any of
the room numbers, Micros cannot read the VingCard key cards without additional
programming on the Micros POS system.- The clerk sees the guest's name on the POS terminal to confirm identity
and can then charge the items to the guest's folio.
See RDP's Point of Sale Interface Overview
Requirements to use the VingCard room key with a POS include:
- VingCard Vision Version 4.1
- Point of sale (POS) systems with card readers capable of reading Track 2
data on magnetic cards.
- The RDP System can accept alpha numeric room numbers, but the VingCard-POS
interface cannot. All Room numbers have to be numeric only, such as 101.
A room number such as A101 or 101A would not work.
