InfoDEN released its first RMS Dormakaba Saflok interface on the 13th of October 2007. Since then, InfoDEN has expanded its range of RMS Dormakaba interfaces to include Oracode and Ambiance. InfoDEN’s range of Dormakaba interfaces now includes the following platforms:
- Saflok 6000 – RFID
- Ambiance – RFID
- Ambiance – BlueSky Mobile
- Ambiance Auto BlueSky Mobile
- Oracode – PIN
Standard Interfaces
We classify Standard Interfaces as those that are designed to cater for most accommodation environments.
These include scenarios where a Guest has an RMS reservation and requires access to their room via RFID, PIN or Mobile Key options.
They can also include default and optional common door access.
These interfaces are closely integrated with RMS and are either activated directly from the RMS Reservation screens or they run as automated background services that trigger based on updates to the RMS reservations.
We have two categories for our RMS Standard Dormakaba Interfaces:
- Integrated Interfaces
- Automated Interfaces
RMS – Integrated Key Interfaces
These interfaces use the integrated “Cut Keys” dialog in the box in the RMS Reservation Screens, to encode guest keys.
They allow multiple keys to be encoded for each RMS reservation.
They are suitable for multiple person occupancy environments, where several people may be linked to a single RMS reservation.
Such as Hotels, Motels, Apartments, etc.
They support both RFID and mobile keys.
Our Dormakaba Standard interfaces are available for:
- Saflok 6000
- Ambiance
RMS – Automated Interfaces
These interfaces automatically generate a Mobile Key or PIN when reservations are checked-in. They are generally used in remote reception or contact-less check-in environments. These interfaces do not have screens and do not require staff intervention to generate a Key or PIN.
The PIN systems write the PIN to a designated field in the RMS and the RMS Correspondence functions are used to send the PIN to the Guest.
Our Dormakaba Automated interfaces are available for:
- Ambiance Auto BlueSky Mobile
- Oracode – PIN
Saflok 6000 – RFID
The Saflok 6000 RFID interface allows staff to encode Saflok RFID keys for RMS Rooms, directly from the RMS Reservation screens. It is the most commonly used interface in the accommodation sector, where keys are encoded for rooms.
| Saflok Platform | Saflok |
| Saflok Interface Protocol | IRS, Messenger PMS Webservice |
| Access Type | RFID Card/Fob |
| Common Areas Support | Default and Optional via PMS Authorisations |
| RMS Module Required | InfoDEN Door Locks through RMS Module Market |
| Interface Type | Integrated into RMS Reservation Screens |
Ambiance
Ambiance – RFID
The Ambiance RFID interface allows staff to encode Ambiance RFID keys for RMS Rooms, directly from the RMS Reservation screens. It is the most commonly used interface in the accommodation sector, where keys are encoded for rooms.
| Ambiance Platform | Ambiance |
| Ambiance Interface Protocol | IRS, Ambiance PMS Webservice |
| Access Type | RFID Card/Fob |
| Common Areas Support | Default and Optional via PMS Authorisations |
| RMS Module Required | InfoDEN Door Locks through RMS Module Market |
| Interface Type | Integrated into RMS Reservation Screens |
Ambiance – BlueSky Mobile
The Ambiance BlueSky Mobile interface for RMS is an add-on module to the RFID interface. It allows staff to encode Ambiance BlueSky mobile keys directly from the RMS Reservation screens. Staff can encode both RFID and BlueSky keys for the same reservation. Note: currently RMS only supports one mobile key per reservation.
| Ambiance Platform | Ambiance |
| Ambiance Interface Protocol | IRS, Ambiance PMS Webservice |
| Access Type | BlueSky Mobile |
| Common Areas Support | Default and Optional via PMS Authorisations |
| RMS Module Required | InfoDEN Door Locks through RMS Module Market |
| Interface Type | Integrated into RMS Reservation Screens |
Ambiance – BlueSky Mobile – Auto
This is an add-on to the BlueSky Mobile add-on interface for RMS. It automatically generates an Ambiance BlueSky mobile key when a Reservation is checked in. This function works for both manual staff check-ins and RMS Guest Portal Guest Self Check-ins. It can be enabled or disabled for individual reservations. Staff can still encode additional RFID keys for the same reservation. Note: currently RMS only supports one mobile key per reservation.
| Ambiance Platform | Ambiance |
| Ambiance Interface Protocol | IRS, Ambiance PMS Webservice |
| Access Type | BlueSky Mobile |
| Common Areas Support | Default only |
| RMS Module Required | InfoDEN Door Locks through RMS Module Market |
| Interface Type | Triggered via RMS Automated Reservation Updates |
Oracode – PIN
The Oracode PIN interface links each RMS Room to a ‘static’ Oracode User. The interface automatically requests a PIN from Oracode, when an RMS Reservation’s Status is set to “Arrived”, and stores the PIN in the RMS Reservation record. The PIN can be sent to the Guest using the RMS Correspondence features.
| Oracode Platform | Oracode |
| Oracode Interface Protocol | Webservice |
| Access Type | PIN |
| Common Areas Support | Default only via User Access Groups |
| RMS Module Required | InfoDEN Door Locks through RMS Module Market |
| Interface Type | Triggered via RMS Automated Reservation Updates |
