Safety and warnings
The Orbi-Trace does not present a safety risk when used as instructed
in this User Manual. However, it is possible that the environment
where you use the instrument may present a safety risk. For this
reason, always follow correct, safe working practices.
CAUTION
The Orbi-Trace units are designed to be robust,
however please use the tag as follows:
•Do not drop the tag or subject it to
mechanical shock.
•Avoid letting the tag come into contact with
water, solid materials or highly saturated or
corrosive gases as this may cause damage
and will invalidate the warranty.
•The Orbi-Trace contains no user serviceable
parts. If a fault is suspected, return the tag to
Casella or a Casella approved service centre.
CAUTION
If the equipment is likely to come into contact with
aggressive substances, take precautions to prevent
the instrument from being adversely affected, so
that the type of protection is not compromised.
(Aggressive substances such as solvents may affect
polymeric materials.) Suitable precautions include
regular checks as part of routine inspections and

4
establishing from the material’s data sheet that the
tag is resistant to specific chemicals.
CAUTION
Repair of this equipment shall only be carried out
by the manufacturer or an authorised
representative in accordance with the applicable
code of practice.

Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Orbi-TraceTM social distancing kit. This
user manual will provide all the information required to use the Orbi-
TraceTM tag, as well as setting up the infrastructure required for
contact tracing.
The Orbi-TraceTM tag will allow individual employees to be
immediately notified when safe distances are breached. With the
Anchor installed, the full capabilities of the Infection Insights App can
be used to analyse the connections, track risk of virus transmission
and ensure teams of people maintain safe distances. If measures in
your workplace aren’t being adhered to, it allows intervention and
adjustment to working practices.

System overview
The Orbi-TraceTM system consists of the following key components to
provide an easy to use social distancing and contact tracing solution.
•Orbi-TraceTM Ultra-wideband (UWB) Tags
•An Anchor
•Ethernet Gateway
•Power-over-Ethernet (POE) Injector
•Associated cables and mains supplies
Orbi-TraceTM Tags
The UWB tags are the heart of the
system. They provide a highly
accurate social distancing and
contact tracing solution. The tags
alert the user every time the safe
distance is breached. The tags also
keep a real-time based log of all
interactions and connections.

8
Anchor
The Anchors are the receiver of the UWB signals from
the Orbi-TraceTM tags. The anchors can be easily
mounted on the wall, ceiling or any other structure by
the help of provided brackets. When placing the tags
near the anchor at the end of a working day, the tags
download the contact information from the tags.
Note: The tag does NOT need to be in range of the anchor to measure
and store contact history.
Gateway
The Gateway connects to the Anchor and collects
the data from the Orbi-TraceTM tags and stores it
securely. The Gateway has an embedded firmware
and Casella’s software for contact tracing and
connection mapping. Connect the Gateway using
any (preferably CAT6e) Ethernet cable to your
company network to use the software.
POE Injector
The Power Over Ethernet (POE) Injector connects
the Gateway to the Anchor and provides power to
the Anchor over the Ethernet cable. The Injector
helps maintain a smooth network of power and
information. Connect the mains adaptor to a
mains supply and connect the Anchor and
Gateway accordingly using the Ethernet cables provided.

9
Installation
Anchor
The Anchor should be installed at the main
entrance/exit of your facility and near the
charging facility. At the end of a working day an
employee should return their Orbi-TraceTM tag to
be charged, with the charging location to be
within 15m line of sight of the anchor to enable
the data to be downloaded.
Use the mounting brackets provided and:
•Place the anchors high Placing the anchor
high (on the ceiling or on the walls) increases the chance of
receiving a good signal because there are less obstructions.
•Place anchors vertically, with the connectors at the top. This
keeps the inbuilt antenna at the bottom.
•If possible, materials like metal, water and wires should stay
away from the anchors, especially the inbuilt antenna
(bottom of the anchor).
•It is recommended to have a separation of 20 cm between
the anchor and walls. Extra mounting equipment can be used
to achieve this.

Gateway and POE Injector
The Gateway is provided with the wall-mount bracket but can also be
placed at any safe location near your network connection.
The POE Injector can be placed next to the Gateway it can also be
affixed on the wall if required. Mains power is supplied to both the
Gateway the POE Injector using the mains supplies provided.

Tag setup
Tag Charging
The tags offload the stored connection data to the Gateway when
they are charging and have at least 15% battery remaining. When the
charging process begins the data offload will start, if the charging
process is disrupted the data offload will continue. As the data
offload is completed using a Bluetooth connection to the Anchor it is
recommended that a charging station is created close to the Anchor
(<15m). Any firmware updates available for the tags will also be
installed during the data offload process.
Power Up
Long press the power button to on/off the tags. A solid green LED will
appear on powering up. A Solid red LED will appear just before shut-
off. On start-up the tags will be in the last used alert mode either
buzzer or vibration. Under normal operation, the LED will be blinking
green.

13
Alert Setup
Double press the power button to switch between alert modes. As
you switch between modes, the LED will:
•1 green LED blink - silent mode (only vibration, no buzzer)
•2 green LED blinks - medium volume mode (vibration +
buzzer)
•3 green LED blinks - high volume mode (vibration + buzzer)
The tag will remember its volume mode when you turn it off. The tag
comes pre-programmed for a 2m safe distance. The safe distance can
be changed by logging on to Casella Infection Insights App. If you have
not purchased the complete Orbi-Trace kit, then please consult
Casella or an authorised Distributor to change the safe distance.
