1. Summary/Overview This User’s Guide details how to register for and use the online Calypso Towers and Resort

Guest Registration System. Once registered owners/managers can create and manage

Guest Registration passes for the north parking garage. The guide details the experience

of both the owner/manager and the guest.

Summary

With growth comes change! The Calypso Towers Resort Community Association, Inc.,

believes it is important to develop systems and processes ahead of time to effectively

manage the property to ensure that all owners and guests have a pleasurable stay at

Calypso.

As part of the community’s long-term growth plan, we recognized the need to create a

modern, Guest pre-registration system to allow access in and out of the north parking

garage. By putting the system online, owners and rental managers can easily manage

their guests 24/7 while providing administrative control to the association during high

occupancy periods, when that is necessary.

Parking located directly underneath Tower I and Tower II is reserved for those owners who

have purchased a parking space. This parking area is managed separately from the

north parking garage. At this time, pre-registration for those spaces is not required.

Each guest will be charged a registration fee for each vehicle they plan to use while at

Calypso. The fee is inclusive of all taxes which the association is responsible for reporting.

Funds collected by registration will be used to cover the initial cost and annual

maintenance of the system. Additional funds may be deposited to the annual operating

budget or used for future growth of the community.

This User’s Guide details how to register for and use the online Calypso Towers and Resort

Guest Registration System. Once registered owners and management companies can

create and manage guest registration passes for the parking garage.

Overview

• Each unit will be mailed one radio frequency identification card (RFID card)

to use as a credential to enter and exit the garage during their stay.

• Vendors, including management companies and housekeepers, are

required to register in the association office. Vendors will be charged $10

per RFID card. Owners and Management Companies are required to notify

the association office in the event you terminate a vendor so their RFID card

can be deactivated in the system.

• Temporary visitors will park outside the north parking garage and pick up a

temporary pass. If a temporary pass is required for entry into the garage,

Please contact the Property Patrol 24x7 at 850-866-2101, or the Association

Office from 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM at 850-636-5004.

11. Cancelling Registration Passes The owner/manager can cancel Guest registration passes that have been created and

are pending usage (Start Date/Time has not been achieved). Cancelling a pass that has

been paid for will result in a refund back to the credit card used to make the payment.

then click CANCEL/REFUND PASS. After this action the status of this pass will be indicated

as “Cancelled.”

Revision 1.0 Page 22 of 22

12. Pre-Expiring Guest Registration Passes Should the need arise to cancel a pass that is currently in use, such as the unfortunate

event as an eviction, a pass can be prematurely expired by changing its end date. This

effectively cancels the pass and does NOT issue a refund.

To Pre-Expire a pass, click on the pass number from the list of passes (See Section 9), edit

the pass (See Section 10), and then set the EXPIRATION DATE and TIME to be some

date/time prior to the current date/time.

Example: It is presently 4/20/2018 - 6:20 PM and the EXPIRATION DATE of this pass was

originally 4/27/2018.

To Pre-Expire the pass set the EXPIRATION DATE/TIME to a value prior to 4/20/2018 – 6:20

PM and then click on “UPDATE.”
