Introduction

From V8.0.9 Door Tablet also supports Motion Sensors. These sensors are installed inside meeting spaces and communicate with the tablets outside of them. The main purpose of the sensors is to:
  1. Automatically check-in to meetings
  2. Terminate meetings in unoccupied meeting spaces
  3. For free rooms, show on the Door Tablet display that the room is Active (V8.1)
Additional use cases are likely to be added in the future.

The Door Tablet sensors are easy to configure and install. The following steps are required:
  1. Prepare your sensors by first attaching them to your PC using a USB cable
  2. Configure the sensor and note some connection information
  3. Install the sensors in the ceiling of a meeting room, and provide them with power and network connection
  4. Test connection to the sensor from the tablet outside the meeting room
  5. Configure Door Tablet to indicate that sensors are used, and how you wish the system to react to motion

Sensor Configuration Types
The Door Tablet sensors come in four forms. In all cases the sensors are connected to your internal ethernet network.
  1. PoE powered and networked
  2. Ethernet with local, in ceiling, USB power source
  3. Wi-Fi with local, in ceiling, USB power source
  4. USB only connection for Windows based end-point devices such as Door Tablet WM, Door Tablet MM and Intel UNITE hub. See here Database 'Door Tablet HELP', View 'Help Documents', Document 'USB only setup'

How Door Tablet connects to sensors
Our sensors connect using IP protocols and are connected directly on your network. They appear as hosts on your LAN and do not require a room controller. When placing sensors on your network you assign them a fixed IP address from your internal pool. Your network administrator should provide you with a range of IP addresses you should use when configuring sensors. You then assign a sensor per room using the Door Tablet Web UI. The Door Tablet Apps will communicate with the local sensor. The Door Tablet server does not participate in the dialogue between Door Tablet and Sensors. The data stored in the Door Tablet configuration database is used by the Apps to determine which sensor to connect to and what to do with sensing events. To make testing and deployment easier, sensor addresses can be overwritten on the tablet App, while the behaviour is always governed by the Door Tablet server data.
