1. General information
yooBee Sensors provide location references for the yooBee Indoor Positioning System. They
measure the RSSI of the signals received from yooBee Trackers and send BLE reference packets
to smartphones.
yooBee Sensors are powered by a solar panel and rechargeable battery. Alternatively, Sensors
can be powered or charged through the micro-USB port.
yooBee Sensors are mounted under lamps using a flat bracket or to windows with suction tape.
yooBee Sensors feature NFC for identification and commissioning purposes and a Multicolor
LED for troubleshooting.
yooBee Sensors are remotely managed through the cloud console for configuration, over-the-
air updates, battery status and charge current monitoring, RF communication quality.
2. Getting started
yooBee Sensors are by default in “Transport mode”, which is a deep sleep mode to preserve
battery life time during shipping. Before using the sensor, the device must be switched ON via
NFC by means of the yooBee Toolbox smartphone app.
To switch on the device, tap the “SWITCH ON” button and hold the device close the NFC
antenna of your smartphone.

The yooBee Toolbox app can be downloaded from the “Admin” section on the Cloud Console.
Log into the Cloud Console from your smartphone, click on the “Admin” tab and select the
Account sub-tab. When clicking on “Download Tools App” link, *.apk files are downloaded on
your smartphone to install the yooBee Toolbox app.
the yooBee Toolbox app is only available for Android
Before the device can be used, it has to be properly configured in the yooBee Cloud Console.
This can be done by means of the yooBee Toolbox app or directly in the Cloud Console (see
the yooBee Cloud Console User Manual).
Note: Switching off the operational mode is equivalent to putting the device in Transport
Mode.

3. Installation
The yooBee Sensor can be fixed to a window by means of a suction cup (yB-020022-SCT) or
mounted under a lamp by means of a flat bracket (yB-020021-SFB). Please see the
InstallationGuide for detailed instructions.
4. Troubleshooting
The yooBee Sensor has a multi-colored LED, that can be used for troubleshooting:
LED Code
Meaning
1x red short blink
Button press detected
2x red short blink
USB power connected
series of short blue blink
Firmware update
1x red after firmware update blue blinks
Firmware update failed
In case of possible malfunction, please contact technical support to receive proper
replacements (email: [e-mail]). Replacement policy also applies to performance
faults caused by low battery before certain operation time.
5. Disposal of the device
yooBee Sensors contain electronic elements and batteries which should be properly disposed
and compliant to local regulations.
6. Safety Instructions
Opening yooBee Sensors is strictly forbidden. Switching the original battery with one of a
different type might cause a risk of explosion.
