Ethernet LED The ethernet LED shows the connectivity status between the Hub and the Platform Off: No network Check if the ethernet cable is plugged in on both ends. Blue port for the Hub. Orange: Connection not established Check if the correct ports are opened. For Hubs connected to 4G check for sufficient throughput and instalment of 4G antennas Green: Connected
LoRa LED The LoRa LED shows the readiness of receiving messages from the sensors. The hub will not accept messages if it is not connected to the platform Off: Not ready Check connection to platform Green: Ready
WI-FI LED The hubs are preconfigured not to send out any wifi signals. The light may turn on during initial boot but will turn itself off after configuration is loaded.
Power LED Off Powered off Flashing Green Boot mode Flashing Orange/Green Reset mode Green Powered on
Can I reset the hub?
Yes, Press the reset button located between the power and blue ethernet until the power LED start flashing orange/green (approx. 20 seconds)The hub will reset back to the original MCS configuration, this can take up to 20 minutes.
Can I run my own configuration?
No, the hubs are configured with the MCS configuration.Trying to reconfigure the hub with the tabs app will lead to malfunctioning hardware
How can I test network throughput?
Connect your laptop to the connection under testGo to a speed test website, e.g. https://www.speedtest.net/Run the test
Can I configure the firewall with a fixed endpoint or IP?
No, the hubs are configured to connect to load balancers. The end points of these load balancers can and will change over time.
Can the Hub be configured with a fixed IP address?
Yes, but this is not in the standard scope. The configuration of a fixed IP is only possible using ethernet and has to be performed by a project engineer on site. This brings additional costs and will alter the project timeline.
Can the Hub connect over WIFI?
Yes, but this is not in the standard scope. The configuration of a WIFI connectivity is only possible using DHCP and has to be performed by a project engineer on site. This brings additional costs and will alter the project timeline.
Can the sensors be installed before the Hub?
No, always wait for the confirmation of the project engineer.

Before installing the sensor take note of the sensor id in the table at the place of installation. Do this by writing down the last 8 digits (blue box 1).
Remove the clear battery strip to power up the sensor (red box 2).
During installation, it's important to clean the installation surface to remove dust particles which have a great influence on the strength of the adhesive bond. This can be done using a simple dust cloth.
Once the surface is clean, remove the adhesive tape cover and mount the sensor on the desired location.
Press the sensor firmly for 5 seconds against the installation surface.
