1 Introduction - Tork EasyCubeTM Tork EasyCube delivers actionable washroom insights through a web user interface. The service consists of Tork dispensers equipped with sensors that communicate the dispenser status and refill needs to a cloud based system, made available for different roles such as a facility manager or the cleaning staff. The system as well includes visitor registration units that can count people passing into a washroom area. Original instruction. 2 Get an instant overview At any point in time the system will provide a quick overview of the status of the installed dispensers through a web based dashboard. Instantly the user of the web application, for example a facility manager, will be able to spot if dispensers are about to become empty. 3 Technical components used in Tork EasyCube The different components used for the Tork EasyCube solution:

3.1 Sensors A selected range of Tork dispensers is prepared to be equipped with sensor technologies to optimize the function, depending on the field of use. There are different sensor technologies used within Tork EasyCube:
3.2 Tork EasyCube Sensor Communication Unit The sensor communication unit is added to a special slot within the dispensers. The refill levels reported by the sensors are visualized in the Tork EasyCube system by colors. Green: indicates that the dispenser still have Figure 1. Each dispenser is wirelessly connected to an information system that can be utilized by both a Facility Manager as well as cleaning staff, in order to facilitate more efficient work planning. Figure 2. Status red indicates very soon out-of-paper and yellow indicates a half-full dispenser. Status green needs no attention. Add a dashboard measurement of a critical location to track its usage. 2.1 Before you get started To be able to get started with the Tork EasyCube system there are some activities that need to be performed. Initially the customer together with SCA will determine which washrooms will be included and the required number of gateways to support these locations. The number of gateways required for a location depends upon the distribution of washrooms within the building and also the construction material of the building walls. End customer washroom SCA server Real-time data at customer Figure 3. The different components used for the Tork EasyCube solution Installation of the system is done by professional installers. Installation instruction is available in the Tork EasyCube Install tool.
* Europe only SCU (Sensor Communication Unit) which is used to measure refill levels in Tork dispensers. Dispensers with embedded sensors. The dispenser contains a sensor from factory. All sensors communicate with the gateway via the radio frequency 2.4GHz. enough paper or soap remaining. Yellow: indicates that it is possible to refill the dispenser. Red: indicates that the dispenser is almost empty. Each sensor is operated by an embedded battery. Wipe off with a dry cloth each 6 months or when needed to remove dust. Article number: 682870 3.3 Dispensers with embedded sensors Tork dispensers such as Tork Foam Soap Dispenser with Intuition sensor do not need an additional Tork EasyCube sensor. Instead, they have an additional radio component within the cassette which forwards information to the DCU via 2.4 GHz radio. The system runs on the same battery as the dispenser, no additional battery is needed. Article numbers: 682830, 682840, 466200 3.4 Tork EasyCube Visitor Registration Unit The Visitor Registration Unit counts the number of people going in and out of a room. The number of visitors can be used as a guideline for when washrooms need to be cleaned. The sensor has a flexible measurement direction, just open the two end pieces and rotate the center unit 90 to change direction. Place one sender and one receiver at the door frame to the entry of the room. The sensor has a range of up to 1.7 meters / 5.5 feet. A configurable response time makes the sensor useful in many different environments and applications. Each sensor is operated by an embedded battery that will last for 5 years. Article number: 682850 3.5 Tork EasyCube Gateway The Gateway collects the data from the sensors
(3.2 - 3.4) and sends information to the Tork EasyCube system. The gateway acts as a communication hub for all the sensors that have been paired with it. The unit collects and processes incoming sensor data. The gateway has a power supply and a battery backup to ensure performance during power failure. The gateway is installed away from water and as high up as possible for best performance. Figure 7. Gateway Figure 4. Sensor card found inside a dispenser Figure 5. The battery operated, touch free Tork Foam Soap Dispensers Figure 6. Visitor registration unit The gateway has a built-in GSM/3G modem used to connect to Internet. No access to local physical networks is needed. Communication between sensors and the gateway is based on SCA proprietary protocol. Article number: 682920 3.6 Several gateways In order to cover larger areas, several gateways may be needed. As each gateway has communication capabilities with the back end server, they can be installed over a large area with no requirements of in-between communication. Version C 4 Wireless Communication There are different sensors in the Tork EasyCube system, but they all communicate in the same manner. Visitor Registration Unit 2.4GHz Radio G S M / 3 G Server/Gateway 2 . 4 G H z R a d i o Gateway Internet Connection Sensor Communication Unit User Interface The sensors send data to the gateway with a default defined time interval. The gateway is configured for Tork dispensers with defined status levels, e.g. Almost Empty, Time for Refill and Full. If a change in status occurs, the gateway forwards the information to the back-end server. It is in the back-end where all data is processed and aggregated to useful information. The customer is provided access to the Tork EasyCube web application for management and analysis of collected information. All configurations and settings to the system are done during installation. 5.1 Radio Frequency Radio Standard 5.2 Gateway Power adapter SMI6-5-V-P5 Battery Battery backup Internet connection Dimensions 5.3 Visitor Registration Unit Sensors Battery Dimensions 5.2 Sensor Communication Unit Sensors Battery Dimensions 2.405 GHz IEEE 802.15.4 Input: 90-264V AC, Output: 5V DC, 1.2A 3.6V, 5.3Ah Up to 10 hours GSM / 3G 188 x 188 x 33mm / 7.4 x 7.4 x 1.3 inches Infrared (IR) 3.6V, 2.1Ah 158 x 23 x 23mm / 6.2 x 0.9 x 0.9 inches Light 3V, 500mAh 62 x 50 x 6mm / 2.4 x 2.0 x 0.2 inches Warnings Only use the power supply provided with the Tork EasyCubeTM.
