Sense Asset User Guide

Introduction

Congratulations, you are now the proud owner of the Sense IoT Bluetooth Technology

Evaluation Kit that will help supercharge your IoT projects.

The IoT devices in this kit are called Sense Asset. As well as harnessing the power of

Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) these intelligent devices include an accelerometer.

Sense Asset (Quuppa) is a BLE tag that is compatible with the Quuppa Intelligent Locating

System that allows you to locate and track the Sense Asset (Quuppa) tags in an environment equipped with Quuppa Locators.

Other parts of the Quuppa Intelligent Locating system are Quuppa Locators and Quuppa

Positioning Engine (QPE) software.

Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) – the power efficient version of Bluetooth is compatible with a huge range of devices and infrastructure.

Due to the simplicity and price points of BLE gateways vs UHF RFID readers or LoRaWAN gateways for example, they can be installed in high volumes in areas of high device density to help ensure device data is read and processed quickly. This can be additionally helpful for location-based applications where the higher density of gateways can help to increase the accuracy of the device location given.

This kit contains:

•

5 Sense Asset (Quuppa) IoT devices

•

An NFC Programmer with sync cable

•

Memory Stick containing Omni-ID Sense Config PC software and electronic version of this user guide

We hope you enjoy using this kit and ‘testing your Senses’ .

The Omni-ID team.

Sense Asset User Guide

1.1.

Activating the Sense Asset

Before using the Sense Asset you must activate and configure it for your Quuppa Intelligent

Locating System.

1.

Press the button for 1 second to wake the Sense Asset (Quuppa) from storage state.

2.

Within 30 seconds, send a configuration command to the Sense Asset (Quuppa) from the Quuppa Site Planner (QSP) and add the tag to the project. For details, see instructions on Quuppa tag configuration from the Quuppa Customer Portal (QCP).

1.2.

Sense Asset 2D barcode

There is a 2D barcode located on the underside of the Sense Asset which contains the tags

ID number. The 2D barcode can be scanned with either a separate 2D barcode reader or a suitable mobile phone app.

1.3.

Sense Asset NFC Configurable Settings

Sense Asset settings can be configured via NFC. Omni-ID provides software that works with

ST Microelectronics M24LR Discovery NFC PCB tool. For further information refer to Omni-

ID ‘Sense Config PC App User Guide’.
