Flexible buttons on the hotel operator’s extension can be set as Room Status Control buttons. The 3 types of
Room Status Control buttons are as follows:
•
Check-in
Switches the status of selected room extensions from Check-out to Check-in.
Remote Extension Dial Lock is turned off, allowing calls to be made from the extension.
•
Check-out
Switches the status of selected room extensions from Check-in to Check-out.
Room extension data, such as Timed Reminder or Last Number Redial data, is cleared, and Remote
Extension Dial Lock is turned on, restricting some calls. This can be useful to prevent the room extension
from being used when no guest is checked in.
•
Cleaned-up (KX-TDA50/KX-TDA100/KX-TDA200 only)
Switches the status of selected room extensions between Ready and Not Ready.
When a guest checks out of a room, the room status becomes Checked-out and Not Ready. After the room
has been cleaned, the status can be changed to Checked-out and Ready using this button. It is also
possible to change the status back to Checked-out and Not Ready if necessary.
Room Status Control Mode
Pressing a Room Status Control button when the PT is idle allows the hotel operator extension to enter Room
Status Control mode. When in Room Status Control mode, the corresponding Room Status Control button’s
light flashes red. The Room Status Control button that was pressed determines which room status each room
extension can be switched to. For example, if the Check-in button was pressed, the Check-in button’s light
flashes red and the hotel operator can select which room extensions to check-in.
In addition, DSS buttons on the hotel operator’s extension or a paired DSS Console show the room status of
each extension as follows:
Light Pattern Status
Off Checked-out and Ready
Flashing Red Checked-out and Not Ready
Red on Checked-in
[Example Use: Checked-in Mode]
Room101
DSS button
Room102
Room103
Room104
Room105
Check-in button
Check-out button
Rooms 101 and 103
are currently in
checked-in status.
Cleaned-up button
When in Room Status Control mode, the hotel operator’s extension is treated as a busy extension, similar to
when performing PT programming. Callers to that extension will hear a busy tone.
All other operations, including pressing other Room Status Control buttons, will be ignored. In addition, the
lights of fixed and flexible buttons do not show their normal display pattern. In order to perform other operations,
the hotel operator must exit Room Status Control mode.
