Automating bays with Teebly Bay Tools
Automate bays and improve bay utilization with Teebly Bay Tools.
Teebly Bay Tools is a Windows application that allows indoor golf venues to automate and message bays. Once Teebly Bay Tools is installed on a simulator bay computer, venues can:
- Send messages to bays from the Teebly dashboard.
- Automate the computer monitor and projector display around bookings.
- Manually lock and unlock bays from the Teebly dashboard.
| Feature | How it helps venues |
|---|---|
| Bay messaging | Lets venues communicate with bays to provide helpful reminders, instructions or technical support to customers. |
| Bay automation | Automatically unlock bays when bookings start and lock bays when bookings end. |
| Flexible automation setup | Teebly Bay Tools and traditional smart plug automation can work together to automate bays around bookings. |
Teebly Bay Tools vs. smart plug automation
As a smart plug alternative, Teebly Bay Tools offers venues a no-cost alternative to traditional smart plug bay automation.
| Automation option | How it works |
|---|---|
| Teebly Bay Tools | Unlocks bays when bookings start and locks them when bookings end. |
| Smart plug automation | Uses smart plugs or switches to turn devices on and off around bookings. |
| Combined automation | Uses Teebly Bay Tools for bay projectors and monitors, then smart plugs for lights or other devices. |
Venues can use both options to automate bays. For example, a venue may use Teebly Bay Tools to automate PC output to projectors and monitors, and to use smart plugs to control lights and launch monitors.
Booking extension prompts
Teebly Bay Tools encourages golfers to extend their booking or unlock their bay, if available.
Near the end of a booking, golfers are promoted to extend if the following slot is available. Likewise, when their booking ends, the lock screen encourages them to unlock the bay for the upcoming slot.
Teebly Bay Tools gives customers a simple reminder while they play and helps venues increase bay utilization without requiring smart plugs or switches.
