The specific examples of the rules in this embodiment are: the system comprises a first party preposed ID, a second party preposed ID, a service code, a second party peripheral type and a second party peripheral name, wherein the first party represents a computer where a PMS client needing to use hotel peripherals is located, and the second party represents a computer where the used peripherals are located. If the computer 102 uses the card sender on 103, the rules are: MYHOTEL-102, MYHOTEL-103, 0 and a card sender;
the front end of the PMS obtains the preposed ID of the computer, and determines the used peripheral equipment according to the rule. If the PMS front end on the computer 102 wants to use the card sender, the front ID ' MYHOTEL-102 ' is obtained first, then the rule is referred to obtain the card sender at MYHOTEL-103 ', and an HTTP request for using the card sender is generated.
Step 2-6: and the PMS client matches the source preposed ID and the service code configured in the PMS peripheral use rule base table according to the current local preposed ID and the service code to determine the used peripheral.
Step 3, the PMS receives a peripheral use request from the local PMS client side in a front-mounted mode, and determines whether to use the local peripheral or use the non-local peripheral according to the front-mounted ID bound to the peripheral in the peripheral use request;
if the local peripheral equipment is used, directly calling a local peripheral interface module API in the PMS front, and returning a calling result to a local PMS client;

in this embodiment, the PMS front-end X may determine that the HTTP request of the PMS client X is received: if a request for inquiring the preposed ID of the local computer PMS is received, the preposed ID is obtained from the PMS preposed configuration and directly returned;
if a request for inquiring the shared peripheral equipment is received, the request is forwarded to a shared peripheral equipment service center, and the shared peripheral equipment service center is used for transmitting the request to the shared peripheral equipment service center
Acquiring all the shared peripheral information of the hotel from a heart database, and returning a query result;
if the request for using the shared peripheral is received, the peripheral attributes (the preposed ID, the peripheral type and the name) in the request parameters are taken out, and the peripheral using result is returned after the corresponding processing is carried out.
Comparing whether the preposed ID of the peripheral used in the PMS request is the same as the preposed ID set in the preposed ID: if the request is different, the request is forwarded to the PMS preposition where the peripheral equipment is used in the request parameters through the shared peripheral service center, the preposition calls the peripheral interface module, the result is returned to the preposition through the center, and the result of using the peripheral equipment of the PMS is returned;
if the local computer peripheral interface module is the same as the PMS peripheral interface module, directly calling the local computer peripheral interface module and returning a PMS peripheral use result;
