Learning Objectives

After reading this article, you’ll be able to:

  • install Tabs motion sensors in locations under 4x4m

Prerequisites

Motion sensors connect over the LoRa network. Make sure you install your LoRa hub before installing the sensors (check out LoRa Gateways / Hubs installation guides for more information).

Prepare you sensor plan (floorplan with dimensions and markings of where the sensors need to come) has been set up.

 Calculate the number of sensors needed to cover the room

  1. Since the dimension of the room should be smaller than 4x4m

  2. Ceiling height should be between 2,15m and 4m

Sensor installation

If the situation you are facing deviates from these instructions/prerequisites, please contact Spacewell. Pictures / Drawings say more than a 1000 words.

 1. Location check

  1. Go to the room

 2. Check the room against the prerequisites

  1. Check the room against the prerequisites. If the prerequisite “Length < 4m AND Width < 4m” is exceeded, please check installation instructions for Meeting Rooms

  2. Check the height of the meeting room: Ceiling height between 2,15m and 4m

 3. Check the room for obstructions

 4. Sensor preparation: unpack

  1. Sensor unpack & placement indication

  2. Take sticker from packaging and stick it to the sensor plan

 5. Sensor preparation: tape placement

  1. Remove sensor from packaging

  2. Tape placement

 6. Sensor activation

Remove the plastic strip to enable the sensor battery

 7. Sensor placement

Sensor placement on ceiling, in the middle of the room: perpendicular to room (long side sensor parallel to short side room)

 Examples
 Exceptions (when prerequisites not met)

‪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
