Initial Menu
((Picture to be inserted later))
- Arm
- Link
- Areas
- Access
- Options
- Visitor
When the unit is armed, you will also have an extra "lockdown" option.
When the unit is disarmed, it automatically runs in "discreet mode" to save on region resources.
Access Levels
- ADMIN - This is the system owner, and any defined managers/co-admins.
- SUBADMIN - This is the primary tenant + any additional tenants.
Tenants/Subadmins can access everything except the LINK and AREAS options, and can't change the ADMIN access list.
Areas
This option defines what area(s) you want CasperSafe to protect.
The area options are:
- * Custom
- * Range
- * Parcel
- * Region
Custom
Choosing custom will rez out a red and blue pair of arrows, which are used to define the diagonally opposite corners of a square or rectangular space. If the parcel you are trying to protect is non-square and non-rectangular, it might be more effective to use the "parcel" setting instead of "custom".
Range
Range allows you to define a circular radius of protection.
Parcel
Allows you to protect a specific parcel on a region.
Region
Allows you to protect an entire region.
Link
This starts the pairing process between CasperSafe and the rental unit. If you clicked this by mistake, simply wait a minute or two for the process to time out. When you see the "Paring ended" message, you can go back to doing what you were trying to do.
CasperSafe Enforcer
This is the widget that actually does the ejecting / teleport home functions. Thus it is required if you actually want to be able to boot avatars out of the protected area - Otherwise CasperSafe operates in "Warning Mode" which basically nags the avatars instead.
Like the CasperLet Prim Counter, in order to properly function, the Enforcer widget must be owned BY THE LANDOWNER - so if the land is owned by an individual, that individual must rez out the Enforcer. If the land is owned by a group, the Enforcer must be rezzed under the land group tag, and then deeded to the group. If there are multiple land owners, then you'll need one Enforcer per land owner.
Default Settings
These are the default settings for the options menu, as it ships from CasperTech: ((Picture to be inserted later))
- Floaty text - OFF - This controls the radar
- Disallow by default - OFF - Eject anyone not in the access list
- Discreet mode - OFF - Slows down the timers to be kinder to region resources
- Eject mode - OFF
- Teleport home - OFF
- Add to parcel ban list - OFF
- Warning time: 30 seconds - How long avatar can stay before being ejected
- Age limit: NONE
- Script limit: NONE
If an avatar is added to the parcel ban list, they will remain on the parcel ban for 6 hours, after which that avatar will be removed from the parcel ban list.
If Eject Mode is ON, then banned avatars will be ejected immediately.
Automatic Settings
- * When used with CasperLet, the owner and any CasperLet managers are automatically admins
- * When used with CasperLet, the primary tenant + additional tenants on that rental are added automatically to the SUBADMIN access list.
- * Two CasperTech support avatars are added to the whitelist to make it easier to provide any needed support: Casper Warden and CasperHelp Resident.
- * Lockdown mode automatically ends when the protected area is empty of all allowed avatars.
Warning time
This controls how long the avatar can stay before being ejected, if eject mode is on. In "Warning mode" (which is the default, if there is no Enforcer present and/or properly deeded) this is how long before CasperSafe sends another warning to the intruding avatar.
Banned avatars
Any avatar on the ban list (either in CasperSafe or on the land) will be ejected immediately if Eject Mode is on.
Lockdown mode
When CasperSafe is armed, the base menu will also show the option "Lockdown" - this changes the warning time to 10 seconds (reduced from the normal minimum of 30 seconds), and increases the scan frequency to account for the 10 second warning. This automatically disables itself when everyone ON the access list has left the region.
There is no time limit beyond waiting for all the admins/subadmins/allowed guests to leave the protected area.
Pairing Mode
Pairing CasperSafe to a single Rental Unit
NOTE: CasperSafe may be paired with only ONE rental unit. If you have multiple rental units out, AND you want to pair CasperSafe to the units, you'll need one CasperSafe per unit.
- 1) Rez CasperSafe Security Orb near the rental unit
- 2) Drop the "Psychic Link Script" into the corresponding rental unit
- 3) Watch messages in local chat. If all goes well, you should see:
Okay, let's have a look here.. Ooh, CasperLet! Good choice! Searching for the orb.. Cool! I'm paired with ((name of rental unit)) (Key: ((uuid string)) ) Pairing process ended.
- 4) The orb will also add the CasperSafe system owner as an ADMIN automatically.
Pairing process usually takes 1-2 minutes, but may be longer if the region is heavily lagged.
Pairing CasperSafe to a Parcel
The Parcel Link Tool allows CasperSafe to be paired with multiple parcels.
- 1) Rez the CasperSafe Security Orb on the land you want it to monitor
- 2) Rez the "Parcel Link Tool" - You will get these messages in local chat:
Touch me to pair this parcel with your CasperSafe orb. Make sure you have started pairing on the orb by choosing AREA -> ADD -> PARCEL, first. I'm now over parcel ((parcel name as seen in "about land" floater)). Touch to register with a CasperSafe Orb.
- 3) On the CasperSafe orb, click for the popup menu
- 4) Select "Areas"
- 5) Select "Add"
- 5) Select "Parcel"
- 6) Then click the Parcel Link Tool. You'll see the following messages in local chat:
OK. Trying to find a CasperSafe orb, please stand by. Alright, all done! Pairing process ended.
- 7) The Parcel Link Tool will self-delete when the parcel pairing process is completed.
Pairing process usually takes 1-2 minutes, but may be longer if the region is heavily lagged.
Not Supported
CasperSafe does not support any sort of avatar height restriction. The reason is because there are many non-child avatars that are also short, and non-human avatars can come in many sizes as well. Height restrictions would therefore eliminate too many legitimate avatars.
