Startup and Shutdown

You are assigned a Username (your member number), Pin, and Password that authorizes you to log in to Stratus MLS.

Start Your Session

If you make an error when entering your Username, Pin, and Password, the system prompts you to retry.

Only one user can log in with his or her log in codes. If a user is logged in to a Stratus MLS session and a second user logs in with the same codes, a pop-up message displays for the new user:

Another user is currently signed in with the same codes. That user has been terminated to allow you to access the system.

Email Verification

TREB stores a single email address for all your TREB email communications, including listing emails you manually send using Stratus MLS and Collaborate.

After you log in to Stratus MLS with your user name and password, before displaying the Home page, the system displays an Email Verification dialog box. Select an existing email address or, if you want to change the single, stored email address for all your TREB email communications, type a new one and select it. Click Validate to begin email address validation.

Every 120 days, following email validation, the system displays a legal statement for your acceptance. Scroll to read the statement in full. Accept the statement, by selecting the checkbox, to designate the specified email address as your single email address, authorize TREB to update the stored email address on file for you, and warrant that your Contacts consent to receiving email from your specified address. Click Save to complete verification.

Note:

To edit your stored email address, use the Link: Manage My Profile, in the main menu.

End Your Session

To properly end your session, rather than using your browser's Close button, log out by clicking Log Out on the site action bar.

When you log out, the system saves your last-used column set, criteria form, and Details form. In your next session, these will be used by default, and can be changed as needed. Settings changes are also saved and used by default; for example, the page size setting at results lists.

If you have more than one window open when you log out, and if your browser permits, the system logs out of your entire session and closes all open windows.

See "Timeout Dialog" for instructions about handling a system warning to renew an inactive session.

System Timeout

The system displays a five-minute warning when your session has been inactive for twenty-five minutes. The system automatically logs you out if you take no action while it counts down to zero seconds.
