FCC ID: SL6-BVCARD02 BEEKS Beacon Badge

Terminology BEEKs locations Specifications BEEKs Badge is typically worn like any other badge hanging on a lanyard around a persons neck or on a clip mounted on a persons belt. Overview The BEEKs Install Guide covers the basics of the BLE beacon setup and provisioning of equipment with Bluzone Cloud account and project. This install guide is intended for install technicians. BEEKs Badge, personal BLE Beacons, worn as badges can provide valuable insight on individual location in numerous different applications. The BEEKs Combo Badge is designed to optionally hold a standard ISO card in portrait format for visual identification of the bearer. The ISO card may contain printing and/or RFID, but is not mandatory for the operation of the BEEKs Combo Badge. The ISO card is affixed by peel and stick into the cavity of the BEEKs Combo badge and permanently glued into position. When combined with HID Globals end-to-end IoT ecosystem, that includes BluFi BLE to WiFi gateways and the Bluzone cloud services, BEEKs can be centrally managed remotely through the cloud to transfer new messages, firmware updates and battery status checks. Their unique design allows BEEKs to broadcast reliably even in densely populated WiFi environments. The BEEKs Beacons link to ID64 with a QR code printed/

labeled on the outer casing. System components WiFi WiFi Bluetooth Bluetooth 1 2 3 4 ITEM DESCRIPTION 1 2 3 4 Bluzone Secure cloud-based SaaS to centrally manage BEEKs via BluFi gateways. Additionally, monitor, store and analyze performance data collected from deployed BEEKs fleet. BluFi Gateway Receives data from BEEKs over Bluetooth and sends to Bluzone Cloud. BEEKs Badge Sends data to BluFi. Person wearing the badge Best practices 2 Maximum of 15 20 beacons per BluFi for best results Maximum 20 30 meters from beacon to BluFi for best results

(distance will decrease in case of increased interference/

blockages). For RTLS applications, the BEEKS Badge signal must be received by at least three BluFis in the vicinity. Network troubleshooting 2.4 GHz WiFi only HTTPS port 443 must be open DHCP required 1 Mbps upload speed required Captive WiFi portals not compatible Compatible certificate formats: .pem, .der BluFi MAC address whitelisting may be required on some networks ITEM DESCRIPTION BluFi model BluFi-AC00 Bluetooth to WiFi Gateway.

In order to communicate with the Bluzone cloud and perform its location and duress functions, the BEEKS badge need to be in range of a properly configured BluFi set. See https://hid.gl/HID-BluFi-AC-installation for details. 2. Plug BluFi into power source for initial setup. 5. BEEK provisioning 1. Place BEEK close to BluFi. 2. For each beacon, hold mobile phone close to BEEK and select device with highest signal strength (swipe down to refresh list). Continue the steps for each BEEK. 3. In Bluzone app, tap Provision > BluFi 4. Hold mobile device close to BluFi and select device with highest signal strength (swipe down to refresh list). 3. When prompted for a Template, select the template corresponding to your use case e.g. Default Beacon Template - Duress Button for the BEEKs Duress Badge. 5. Follow each step within Bluzone app as instructed to define location and picture of the installation place (optional). 6. When prompted for Template, create a new Template with your WiFi SSID and password. Optionally. assign the beacon a name that coincides with the owner of the badge. You may alternatively also assign keep the random number name for enhanced privacy. The badge owner can at any any time slide a visual badge in form of a printed ISO card into the card holder of the BEEKs Badge. The ISO card can be removed and reinserted into the badge at any time and is not mandatory for the duress and RTLS functions. hi d g lo bal.com 2 BEEKs and BluFi installation 1. BluFi installation BluFi should be installed within 100ft (30m) of monitored assets (shorter distances required for environments with obstructions). 2. BEEKs connection BEEKs Badges are typically worn on a lanyard around a persons neck or on a belt clip. To test the badge, place it near a properly installed BluFi. Depending on the desired accuracy of the location services, one BEEKs must be able to communicate with multiple BluFis at the same time to enable triangulation. For small rooms, one BluFi per room may be enough to show a BEEK in that room for location and duress functions. 1. In Bluzone console, go to BluFi > {BluFi Name} >

Statistics and scroll down to the Scan Map. 2. Verify that each beacon sees at least one BluFi. (-75 dBm or higher is desired). AC BluFi Option 3. Policy creation The beacon is now ready to use.
