Use this tab to configure the touch screen settings for a specific resource differently to the default system-wide configuration:

This provides a degree of fine-tuning which is extremely powerful and flexible to suit individual resource requirements.

This feature might be useful, for example, to allow one or more rooms to have check-in and check-out buttons but no Smartbook^TM, to restrict local booking. (All bookings would then have to be made at the desktop).

Another use might be to have a system-wide policy of check-in and check-out for comprehensive actual utilisation reporting, but for only certain rooms to have the autocancellation process enabled (or disabled).

Work through the settings shown:

Interactive. Select whether to enable the screen as interactive ('Yes') or for display only ('No').
