RMS NetLinx Programmer’s Guide
Overview
The Resource Management Suite products are PC server applications designed to
manage rooms and equipment. The RMS server also monitors equipment in the
rooms and sends notifications for room problems and help requests. The RMS
server allows for the logging of room and device use, errors that occur, and
offline events. The RMS server offers a variety of build-in reports for historical
and statistical analysis, as well as device monitoring through a user extensible
framework. This framework allows you to customize what devices should be
monitored, the conditions that indicates a problem or fault, and what type of
problem or fault this condition represents. The RMS server generates
notifications and routes them to different personnel when a fault condition
occurs, routing such notifications to the appropriate personnel as determined by
the notification configuration.
The RMS Software Development Kit (SDK) is composed of a series of modules
that allow users to monitor equipment errors and usage, view appointments,
display welcome images and messages, and view current appointment details
from any NetLinx compatible touch panel. Users can create presets to be
executed when a meeting starts from the actions available through i!-
ConnectLinx.
i!-ConnectLinx provides the mechanism to expose actions to the RMS server and
to manage action execution on the NetLinx system. In the RMS web pages users
can create control functions which are essentially macro sequences of
i!-ConnectLinx actions. These control function macros can be directly executed
or scheduled from the RMS web pages. i!-ConnectLinx handles these requests
and presents it to the NetLinx program for execution. See the i!-ConnectLinx
help file for details on programming i!-ConnectLinx.
