Ideally, before this sensor is installed, a tabs hub needs to be installed and confirmed working - otherwise the sensor will deplete itself looking for a hub.
Check here the checklist for installation: Checklist for installation
Check our instructions on tape here: Tabs Sensors installation guides
Datasheets can be found here: Data sheet Tabs (Tracknet) hubs & sensors

Workplace
Always check the detailed instruction in the Motion Tab Placement Guide.

1.Go to the workplace
- Width of workplace: between 120-180 cm
- CHECK THE DIFFERENCE between "normal" (between 60-80 cm high) and "height adjustable" table installation instructions
- Depth of the table should be minimum 65 cm
- Measure 63 cm deep from the middle of the table
- Check for a flat surface of 3 x 1 cm2
- Check if the flat surface is level
- Check for any obstructions → contact Spacewell
- Sensor unpack & placement indication
- Take sticker from packaging and stick it to the sensor plan
- Remove sensor from packaging
- Tape placement
- Cap placement (different for "normal" vs "height adjustable" tables!)
When it comes to installing caps on motion sensors, we use Loctite Super Glue -3 (all plastics) OR Pattex Super Glue for all plastics (2 steps). Both come with an applicator + glue.
Roughly 70-80 caps can be installed with 1 glue stick, depending how conservative you apply the glue.
Best practices:
- First apply the activator, before applying the glue
- Also apply the activator to the base of the sensor where the glue will be touching!
- The instructions for the glue say to wait one minute after applying the activator, don’t just skip the wait time. Wait.
- If you were to set up an assembly line with a couple of colleagues to glue the caps, make sure that you keep the bags with the correct sensor (upon installation, you will need to take the sticker (number = sensor identification) from the bag to indicate on the sensor plan which sensor has been placed where.
- Sensor placement
- underneath normal table (between 60-80 cm high (not height adjustable to standing table)): vertical/ downwards + perpendicular to table (short side sensor parallel to long side table)
- underneath height adjustable table: longest face of the sensor is parallel to the front of the desk and the lens facing downwards (long side sensor parallel to long side table)
