If you are an estate manager on the sim/region or the owner of the group that owns the mainland parcels you will be able to rez objects on the land even if the rights are otherwise turned off. When placing rental units, it's '''always''' a good idea to turn on "view land owners" and/or "view property lines" to make sure you are placing the unit in an area where scripts will always work, and the renter will not be able to return it. Most residents will behave in this regard, but there's '''always''' going to be someone who will want to test the estate staff.

When you are renting parcels on a sim, simply rez the rental unit ON the parcel you want it connected to.  
 
Then you can move it off the parcel onto land where the renter can't return the rental unit, or move it to your sim's rental HQ.
 
=== Difference Between Meters and Boxes?  ===
----
 
Both types allow rental state changes - showing whether a unit is available, rented, etc. - but where the box includes transparency functions, the meter does not because it's designed to be left out and visible at all times. As far as tenants are concerned, there are no functional differences between the boxes and the meters. Both will accept payments, both will show state changes.
 
Each type comes in a primary/master version, and a secondary/slave version that acts as a relay. You '''cannot''' use a "slave" unit in place of a primary unit - the "slave" units have no "brains" of their own, and exist solely to pass commands and responses back and forth from the primary unit it is linked to.  
 
The primary/master unit names are as follows:  
 
  CasperLet Rental Box
  CasperLet Rental Meter
  CasperLet Mesh Rental Meter
 
The secondary/slave unit names are as follows:
 
  CasperLet SLAVE Box
  CasperLet SLAVE Meter

To create your custom rental units AND to make sure rental state changes are reflected (or not, as you choose) between rental and availability, see the '''[[CasperLet/Customisation | Rental customisation]]''' page.
