This guide focuses on the configuration of the Pointgrab devices on the Pointgrab cognipoint management system (cpms) and Studio.
This guide assumes a configured asset tree in cpms with floorplan.

For a more detailed understanding of the CPMS please consult the manual.

Deploying sensors CPMS

Link the device ids from the physical installation to the sensors device name (include area name, customer name (eg customer_area_floor number_room number_X))

Manual mode:

  1. Click the device manager tab
  2. Search the device name in the list or by typing in the search box
  3. Select the line of the device name
  4. Click the link icon
  5. In the Serial Number field, enter the serial number that is labeled on the sensor (with dashes).
  6. Click Link and verify the sensor’s Link Status icon in the table

CSV mode:

  1. Fill in the following csv file, and keep the format (number of enters between blocks, indenting, etc.)

  2. Select the correct floor in the asset tree
  3. Click the import button
  4. Browse for the file and click ok.

Defining areas CPMS

Define the areas where the sensors will measure headcounts (eg. different workplaces to be covered by 1 Pointgrab sensor)

→ of course, all of these areas need to be within the Detection Area (check Pointgrab installation guide for info on Detection Area linked to Installation Height)

! Mind that even if the Detection Area might be large enough to cover more than 10 work places, CPMS has a limit to max 10 areas per device, so if you create more in CPMS, the device will appear offline.

 

  1. Click the Add Area button. The Add Area dialog is displayed.
  2. In the Area Name field, include device name, customer name (eg customer_floor number_area)

    1. Tip: Make sure device ID + MCS location is referenced everywhere, so that in Studio you can use the simple search function

    2. Tip: do not to set the name of a tenant with number at the beginning (eg tenant name "3F")
       
  3. In the Update Frequency field, enter the frequency in seconds at which the sensor will send notifications.
  4. For optimal performance, in the Type field, select the type of the area you want to add. 
  5. In the Center X field, enter the X coordinate in meters of the area’s center.
  6. In the Center Y field, enter the Y coordinate in meters of the area’s center.
  7. In the Area Width field, enter the area’s horizontal dimension in meters.
  8. In the Area Length field, enter the area’s vertical dimension in meters.
  9. Optionally, click in the Select Devices field, then select the checkboxes of the devices whose detection areas you want to cover the new area. This can be useful, for example, if you have some knowledge about occlusions in the sensors’ views, and you want to choose the optimal sensor/s for covering your new area.
  10. Click Save. The area is added and displayed both in the Search pane and as a blue rectangle (assuming it’s a valid area) in the floor plan.

Finetuning CPMS

Finetune the location of the area and the sensor device by comparing the live view and the on site situation

Deploying sensors in your tenant 

Status 1/08/2021: because the Device ID drop down list includes ALL CPMS tenants, it's currently not possible to select CPMS device ID by using a tenant-direct-login in Studio. Please contact Julie or Ragavendra per mail, and indicate your tenant and the relevant CPMS area names that need to be mapped in Studio.

Inquire the list of the sensors (Sensors ID) and import those into your tenant on Studio (https://studio.cobundu.com).

Please be aware that only after the next data package is send, data for this sensor will be visible in your tenant. (This means that depending on time of provisioning to your tenant and activity at the customer site, this can take a while.)

  1. Go to your tenant (https://studio.cobundu.com)
  2. Go to Devices < "Add New Device"
  3. Select "Pointgrab" as Device Type
    1. this will automatically select the relevant channels for Pointgrab (Headcount, Footfall-in and Footfall-out)
    2. if you want to disable one or more of these channels (eg in your project, the Pointgrab devices will only be used for Headcount), you can click on the "Advanced" button and scroll down to modify Advanced Sensor Details. Only do this after approval of your Spacewell Consultant.
  4. Select the detection area (that has been set up in CPMS beforehand) from the Device ID drop down list
    1. Status 1/08/2021: because the Device ID drop down list includes ALL CPMS tenants, it's currently not possible to select CPMS device ID by using a tenant-direct-login in Studio. Please contact Julie or Ragavendra per mail, and indicate your tenant and the relevant CPMS area names that need to be mapped in Studio.
  5. Give a meaningful name: include device name, customer name (eg customer_floor number_area)
    1.  Make sure device ID is referenced everywhere + location , so that in Studio you can use the simple search function 
  6. Map against the installation location
  7. Save/Submit your changes
