If prerequisites are not met, contact your Spacewell Implementation Consultant to check if it is possible to install the sensor, perhaps with a different placement. If sensors are not placed according to Spacewell guidelines, the accuracy cannot be guaranteed. Overview exceptional situations 1. Phone booth where walls are entirely made from glass 2. Concentration rooms with only fabric. If table is available: it’s possible to hang underneath the table, but be aware of false positives when door is open. 3. Concentration rooms with difficult design: hang sensor on the wall of the door, looking into the room |
Sensor installation Tips & Tricks
Don’t place tape on the side with the QR code
Aim the eye facing down away from strong heating or cooling sources (fireplace, HVAC)
What happened before - don’t let it happen again…
Eye of workplace sensor very close against a metal stud
Sensor towards the door
Sensors/touchpoint installation in a “construction” site
Deploy sensors in Workplace Platform
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 Tabs Motion Sensor quality assurance
After triggering the sensor you should see values for each sensor that is linked to a location in the live floorplans (for example in touchpoints Workplace web (Go) and The Workplace App), and Workplace back-end Studio’s Sensor Management.
