System6000™withouttheinsuranceofstoredFailsafekeycards.

Ifyourpropertyiswithoutpower–orifyourcomputersystemfails,Failsafekeycardsareyourinsuranceagainst
lostrevenueanddissatisfiedguests.

ThepreparationandstorageofFailsafekeycardsshouldbedonewhentheSystem6000isfirstsetup.Ifyour
propertyisoperatingwithoutFailsafekeycards,itiscriticalthatyoucorrectthissituationimmediately.

Failsafekeycardsarebackupkeycardsforguestrooms.Thesekeycardsaremadeinadvanceandstoredinasafe
location.Intheeventofapoweroutageorasystemfailurethattemporarilypreventsthemakingofnewkeycards,
theFailsafekeycardscanbeissuedtoguestswhoarecheckingin.

Threesetsor“sequences”ofkeycardsshouldbecreatedandstored.Thiswillallowyourpropertytorentaroom
threetimesduringapoweroutageorsystemfailure.Eachofthesesetsshouldcontaintwokeycards,soeachguest
canhavetwokeysforhisorherroom.

EventhoughFailsafekeycardpreparationdoestaketime,thistimeandeffortwillgreatlypayforitselfinan
emergency.Here’showtoprepareyourthreesetsofFailsafekeycards:

• First,getathree‐ringbinderforeachsetofFailsafekeycards.Useplasticholderpagesthataredesignedto
holdbusinesscardsorbaseballcards.TheseplasticpagesareidealforholdingtheFailsafekeycards.(Asan
alternative,youcanusethreebinsorboxeswithseparateenvelopesforeachroom’skeycards.)

• Labelthethree‐ringbindersas“FailsafeSequence#1,”“FailsafeSequence#2,”and“FailsafeSequence#3.”

• Thenlabeleachpocketintheholderpages(oreachenvelope)with“RM101,”“RM102,”andsoon.

Note:BecauseFailsafekeycardscouldpotentiallybeusedatanytimetoaccessaroom,theFailsafebindersshould
bestoredinaverysecurelocation.

