Sensors

📘 Are you receiving sensor data? Sensor data should be already processed by a sensor integration. A working connection creates sensors automatically in the Locatee database. Here is how to check this is taking place correctly:

1. Go to Admin → Data Sources → Sensors
2. Check the Sensors table is populated. If that is not the case, check that the sensor integration is live and sending data properly.

Sensors can also be created manually:

1. Click New Sensor
2. Fill in the required details:
   1. Name
   2. Class: people counting or generic (presence)
3. Click Create
4. Repeat for as many sensors as needed.

​

Map a sensor to a space

1. Go to Admin → Buildings and open the building you wish to map sensors for.
2. Click on Desk Mapping. A new tab will open with the Desk Mapping page.
3. Click on the space you wish to map, and go to the Sensor tab.
4. Select the sensor ID from the dropdown that you wish to associate with that space. Filter for a specific ID by typing it in the search box.
5. Click Save to confirm your selection.
6. Repeat steps 4-6 for all desks.
