Questions

What if I cannot send a QR-Codes to a Vendor?

 

If you cannot send a QR-code to an individual phone, such as in the case of a vendor, just register them and they can stop at the gate. The gate attendant will see that they have been registered by you and let them in.  If they are authorized for a long period of time, the attendant will print them a pass good till the expiration date.

Can I log into the TEKWave App with my DwellingLIVE username and password?

 

No, TEKWave will not recognize it.  You must first register with TEKWave.  Part of the registration process is to create your new password, which the App will recognize.

A widget to display the QR-code will be added to the program widgets on your phone’s main screen (often multiple page long), allowing you to quickly access that QR-code.

Where is the QR-Code scanner and how do I scan my QR-Code?

 

The scanner for your QR-code is located on the resident’s aisle for both the North and South entry gates in Rosedale. To scan your QR-code, display the QR-code on your phone and hold it about 12 inches below the reader.

Why do all my Visitors sometimes not display on my APP?

 

We have identified an idiosyncrasy in the TEKWave App. If you log in and immediately hit the "my visitor" tab, the visitor list may not display.   When you log in, give it a second or two for the main screen to load and visitors to populate before selecting the "my visitor" tab and visitor list will show.  I understand that it will soon be corrected.

Are there any unexpected issues with the conversion of vendor lists from DwellingLIVE?

 

Missing visitors from my list

If your visitors were in the DwellingLIVE database when we captured it to convert several weeks ago, they will be in the new system.  If added since then, they will have to be added again.

 

Visitors Incorrectly Coded

For most residents, their list of visitors (guests, vendors etc.) was converted from DwellingLIVE into the TEKWave database correctly.  A few residents have reported that while all their visitors are there, some came through with improper visitor type coding, that is, vendors showed up as guests.  The good news is that they will still be admitted through the Gate because they are listed as your visitors, but it would be a good idea to check you visitor list and correct any mis-coded visitors.

Explain Permanent verses Temporary Visitors

​

Guests can be either temporary or permanent.  All other visitor types are temporary.  For Temporary Guests, Vendors and all other visitor types, you will need to enter an Expiration Date.  If you wish to make them long term, you can enter an Expiration Date far into the future I.e. 12/31/30.  During the period between the Schedule Date and the Expiration Date, they can enter at any time. Permanent Guests are not limited by an Expiration Date.

Why doesn't the QR-code for one of my visitors work?

​

There are several reasons why a QR-code might not work.  First, there is an expiration date that is set when the visitor is entered.  If that date has passed, the QR-code will no longer be valid and will not work.  Also, if you make any change to a visitor record, that will automatically cancel any existing QR-code, and you will have to sent your visitor a new one to replace the cancelled QR-code.
