Installation of multiple Folio
The Property Management System server allows for multiple Folio Charges by passing the pmttype_no along to the pmsserver to allow processing to multiple Folio Charge systems. The tag inserted is pmtype_no to match the field name in the pmt_type table. This is controlled by the pms_system.INI file. To set up for multiple Folio systems:
1. Add PmtTypeNos in the [Server] section to match the multiple Folio Charges set up in the pmt_type table ( the pmtype_no field for rows that have devicetype of 11). This field is a comma separated field line of pmtype_no to support.
Example:
If the system has two Folio Charge systems and the pmtype_no rows corresponding to the Folio Charge is 7 and 24, the [Server] section would have PmtTypeNos=7,24.
2. There is a [SerialPort] section for each PmtType. [SerialPort] for the first, [SerialPort2] for the second and so forth. The parameters in this section give the details of which serial port to use.
Example:
If PmtType 7 is on Serial Port 3, and if PmtType 24 is on Serial Port 9, then, the Pms_system.INI have the following settings:
[Server]
PmtTypeNos=7,24
[SerialPort]
COM=3
[SerialPort2]
COM=9
