3 Introduction Your Board and Security Committee have implemented a new, cutting edge Visitor Management Solution called DwellingLIVE. After familiarizing yourself with this new technology, you ll notice that it s quite easy to use and helps to accelerate and enhance the entry process for both your visitors and the security staff. This guide provides residents with instructions to access and set up their accounts and preferences within their DwellingLIVE profile. Additional YouTube Tutorials are listed on the next slide of this presentation that provides insight on Account Overview, Guest List Management, and The Smart Phone App. * Note: Not all fields found on the DwellingLIVE site are required. Some items such as Uploading a Photo within the User Details Screen or typing in a Company Name when adding a guest to your account is optional.

15 Types of Guests Our system is configured to have Temporary and Permanent Guests: Temporary Guests expire on a certain data and are removed from the system on that date. Permanent Guests remain on the system indefinitely. Our System has five pass types: Day Guests Receive a bar code and can access the community until midnight that day. Best used for a friend who is coming over for a visit. Day Vendor Receive a bar code and can access the community until 7pm that day. Pass is not valid on Sunday. Best used for a contractor or repair person coming for one day. 5 Day Guest Can receive a bar code good for up to 5 days. Allows access until midnight each day. Best used for a family member who comes to visit for several days. 5 Day Vendor Can receive a bar code good for up to 5 days. Allows access until 7pm each day. Pass is not valid on Sunday. Best used for a contractor who will be working on a home for several days. Authorized Guests Do not receive a bar code and must check in with security each day. This is the same authorized guest list currently in place. Please do not place contractors on your guest lists for times and days that violate community rules. Suspension of account may occur if the system is abused. Preferred Guest and Preferred Vendor decals will continue to be sold. These decals allow entry into the neighborhood without having to be processed by security. Please contact us at for additional information.

16 Types of Guests (continued) Guests with passes that have valid bar codes will be able to enter our community at the main gate or West Park gate through either the managed or unmanaged lanes. When using the managed lane, simply show the pass with a bar code to security and they can scan the pass. When using the unmanaged lane, the bar code can be used with the scanners which have been installed. If a pass has expired, the guest will have to be on the guest list and have a valid drivers license to obtain a new pass.
