1. Risk and security declarations
1.2 General safety instructions
The following general safety instructions apply when handling the connection panel product (in addition
to the specially listed safety instructions):
•The use of the BACHMANN connection panel product is only permitted in a faultless condition.
In the event of any damage, problems or malfunctions, the product must be immediately
switched to a de-energized state and the BACHMANN customer service must be contacted.
Ensure that all cables are routed in such a way that they do not present any danger to persons or can
be damaged.
Protect cables and connections from liquids. For example, do not place power cords and power supplies
near washbasins, bathtubs, toilets or on floors that are cleaned with liquids. Liquids can cause short-
circuits, especially if the cable or power supply has been subjected to excessive stress due to improper
use. Liquids may also cause gradual corrosion of the power cord connections and/or power supply cord
ends. This can eventually lead to overheating.
Do not use cables that show corrosion damage to the plug and/or damage caused by overheating (e.g.
deformed plastic parts) to the plug or other components of the cable.
Do not use cables where the electrical contacts at one end show signs of corrosion or overheating or
are damaged in any other way.

2. Product description
2.1 Scope of delivery
The BACHMANN connection panel product or socket strip with integrated iotspot modul functionality.
2.2 Intended Use
The BACHMANN connection panel product is intended to be mounted on desks and/ or meeting rooms.
The connection panel product is intended for use in dry and closed rooms (protection class IP20). The
intended use is stationary supply of electrical voltage (via different socket types and/or network and
media supply). Use for offices and similar purposes, excluding construction and installation work. Use
only in clean indoor areas at a maximum ambient temperature of 5°C, to/or occasionally 35°C. Do not
use in the immediate vicinity of chemical emissions (e.g. oil mist, solder fumes) or dust sources. The
product must not be opened and/or modified or extended! A different use than the intended use, as well
as the change of the product, can lead to damage of the product, serious material damage and personal
injury!
The iotspot functionality will indicate the availability status of these resources in an office environment.
The availability status, as indicated by a RGB-LED coloring scheme, is ‘communicated’ to the product
by means of a GSM connection with the cloud computing infrastructure or a Bluetooth connection with
the presence sensor(s). The foreseeable use of the iotspot functionality is that of an internet access hub
for Bluetooth monitoring devices, i.e. sensors of third-party manufacturers in and outside of an office
environment.
3. Operation conditions of the iotspot module
3.1 Product functioning - only regarding the iotspot module
The product’s function is sixfold:
1. Receiving a ‘status’ payload over LTE-M or 2G connectivity, as generated in the iotspot back-
end software;
2. Receiving a ‘sensor’ payload over Bluetooth connectivity as generated by the Bluetooth
connected sensors;
3. Sending the ‘sensor’ payload over LTE-M or 2G connectivity to the iotspot back-end software;
4. ‘Beaconing’ its ‘identity’ to smartphones that have the iOS or Android app of iotspot active; and
5. Communicating its ‘identity’ using the passive NFC chip to smartphones that have the iOS or
Android app of iotspot active;
6. Displaying the ‘status’ through a color indication as emitted by eight RGB-LEDs in a semi-circle;
