Learning Objectives

After reading this article, you’ll be able to:

  • configure Zens sensors in Workplace

  • send Zens data to Workplace

Data-Stream Configuration

Zens will connect sends data to the Workplace platform through Generic Endpointa webhook. The Spacewell Consultant creates a customer unique token in External Data Sources, and communicates the connection details to Zens.

Deploy sensors in Workplace Platform

Add New Device in Workplace back-end Studio

  1. Go to your environment (https://studio.cobundu.com ) and log in

  2. Select the location, where you can manually add a sensor via "Add New Device"

Manually add device through location > devices > new: location is filled in.

‪Select Device Type "Generic PIR". This will automatically link the device channel.

Enter Fill in the Device ID as

  • prefix “zens|”

    • device

    , using

    • tenant ID and source ID available in Settings > External Data Sources. Adhere to the format <tenant_id>-<source_id>|<device_id>

    • Device ID will be provided by the ZENS project team, and will refer to the location

    Expand
    title
    example: “zens|867723035258986”
    Example device ID

    for example

    • if you want to configure a sensor with ID “123” (unique_device_id that will be mentioned in the payload; in case of 3rd party vendor will need to be provided by the 3rd party)

    • in an environment with tenant ID “spacewell”

    • where an External Data Source with source ID “zens” has been set up

    the Spacewell Device ID will be

    “spacewell-zens|123"

    Enter a meaningful Device Name (eg customer_floor number_area).

    Select a Location from the location tree if this is already known (automatically filled in if location was selected before adding new device).

    Linked Locations is not relevant for this kind of sensor.

    Selecting the correct Device Type "Generic PIR" should automatically set the Type to "Presence" and the Channel to “PIR” (see Advanced).

    For more information on how to add multiple new devices to Studio, check out Configure devices (add, remove, import/export).

    Quality Assurance

    Next step is the Quality Assurance to make sure that the whole installation and configuration of your Motion sensor was a success. See Quality Assurance Occupancy/Utilization Sensor

    Check the Motion Sensor

    The sensor LED will glow green when the motion sensor is properly connected. This is the sign that the sensor is receiving power.

    Note: If the green LED does not work, check the RJ12 connections to the charging module.

    After connection, the LED sensor will flash orange. After 30 seconds the flashing will stop and the sensor is in use

    Wave your hand slowly 5 to 10 times in front of the sensor. This will activate the motion sensor, and the sensor's LED will turn orange Checking the motion sensor and power supply Note: If this does not happen, the entire RJ12 cabling and power supply must be checked.

    After the installation of the charging module and the motion sensor, the working can be checked.

    If the motion sensor works properly and has detected movement, the LED ring will turn red. If this does not happen, the entire RJ12 cabling and power supply must be checked.
