Ubisense – Ultra-wideband In-Building Location System – Ubisensor V1.0
Category 5e cable (or better). A timing cable from the master to a slave can be plugged into any
free timing socket on the master, but must be plugged into the top right-hand timing socket on the
slave, as shown in the diagram below.
All sensors are connected to the standard building network using a Category 5 unshielded cable
(or better), and to a power supply (typically via a 12V DC adaptor such as the Stontronics EPA-
121DA-12). The final wiring interconnection diagram for a three-member sensor cell would be as
follows:
WARNING: Never plug a networking cable into a timing cable socket, or a timing cable into the
networking socket!
Switching on the Ubisensor
To turn on a Ubisensor, simply turn on the power to the device. The 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.
