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 Installation Guide

Datasheets can be found here: Data sheet Tabs (Tracknet) hubs & sensors

 

After installation:

Installation Flow

1. Decide HOW to install
• Check if locations apply to prerequisites
  • chest-level (1m40-1m60/4.59-5.25 feet), preferably next to a light switch or HVAC control unit
  • not over a heating body or in direct sunlight
  • not behind a cupboard, a tv, ...
• Indicate on the Sensor Plan where to place all sensors, incl where the sensor placement deviates from this normal procedure

2. Prep the sensor

Place 2 pieces of adhesive tape on the side of the sensor on the side with tabs embossed.
Caution! Do not place any tape on the sticker side.

When installing the sensor make sure the intake (round air slots) are not obstructed. Preferably place the sensor next to a light switch or an HVAC control unit

→ Idea is to grasp the temperature at breast/head-height (“as the end-user would interpret the temperature”; knowing that heat rises).

Use common sense and do not hang them over a heating body, in direct sunlight, next to a heating vent, behind a smart board / tv, deep in open cupboards (where they can be blocked by items) etc …


3. Install sensor
•Check the Sensor Plan and decisions from Step 1
•Indicate Sensor IDs on the floorplan > excel for mapping (last 8 digits (blue box 1))
•"deviating" sensors should be indicated as such on the Sensor Plan

  1. Remove the clear battery strip to power up the sensor (red box 2).
  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.
  3. Once the surface is clean, remove the adhesive tape cover and mount the sensor on the desired location.
  4. Press the sensor firmly for 5 seconds against the installation surface.

4. Send Sensor Plan with sensor placement indication to Spacewell (scan, picture) for mapping

(Allow time for upload sensor ID and mapping (Spacewell))
