Frequently Asked Questions

Why doesn't my Home Panel do anything when I click it?

When using the Home Panel, you will need to make sure that you have turned on your Control Panel. This will activate the entire system.

Why doesn't a person's name work on the Whitelist?

If you are putting people's names on the white list; if they do not have the last name in their Username, then you will need to supply the last name as "Resident".
Example, If my name is "Johnsmith123", my name will need to be formatted "Johnsmith123 Resident" on the whitelist.
