Ubisense – Ultra-wideband Location System – Ubisensor30v1
Switching on the Ubisensor
To turn on a Ubisensor, simply turn on the power to the device. The Status LED on the front
of the Ubisensor should illuminate, and the device will begin to attempt to contact the
Ubisense location system (which should already have been installed on your network – see
the software manual for details). Configuration of the Ubisensor is entirely automatic, and is
under the control of the Ubisense location system.
Calibrating the Ubisensor
When the Ubisensor has been installed in its final location, its position and orientation must
be found and entered into the Ubisense location system’s database. The Ubisense location
system management tools make this calibration process simple and quick – refer to the
software manual for details.
Troubleshooting
If you believe that a Ubisensor is not functioning correctly, and the Ubisense location system
management tools are not able to diagnose the problem, it is likely that the Ubisensor is not
communicating with the rest of the location system for some reason. Check the following:
 The networking cable is fully plugged in at both ends.
 The Ubisensor is connected to a network connection which is providing PoE power.
 Your local network port is connected to the rest of your network.
 The link light corresponding to the Ubisensor network connection is illuminated on the
nearest upstream switch.
If you are still unable to determine the cause of the problem, contact your system installer or
Ubisense.
