What is a Smart Spot?
Smart Spot is a connected device that has the ability to
create an area of interaction with citizens and visitors.
These devices send a URL (website link to open it in any
browser such as smartphone Internet browser) to allow
users to connect to online contents and discover websites
from physical locations. In addition, Smart Spot can
optionally capture data regarding energy consumption,
noise level and crowd-monitoring (people counting based
on WiFi detection); thereby, Smart Spot allows to monitor,
dene metrics and estimate the comfort level in a city
area.
Smart Spot contextualizes the information of each Point
of Interest sending notications by proximity to mobile
phones through Bluetooth Low Energy in a range of 1 to
80 meters, without requiring to installing any native App
over Android OS or iOS, since it is directly supported by
the Operating Systems via Physical Web and iBeacon
technologies.

How to install the device on a pole or on a wall?
Put the device on the support tting the three pins in
the three slots that the Smart Spot has in the back.
Then, drop it and t it into the lower pin.
Once tted on all the pins, insert the screw through
the bottom and press it until the Smart Spot is xed.
Put the clamps around the pole to hold the support.
Screw the clamps until the support is xed. On wall,
hold the support on the wall directly.

What is Homard Dashboard?
HOMARD is a device management platform for the OMA
LwM2M protocol. HOMARD is our own platform.
The platform offers functionalities for device
management, i.e., remote maintenance,  rmware upgrade
and open/standard APIs for information reporting.
Enabling the installation, removal of applications, and
retrieval of inventory software components already
installed on the device and the most relevant  rmware
upgrades over the air.
Allowing to the Management Authority to remotely enable
and disable device peripherals like cameras, Bluetooth,
USB, sensors (ultrasound, temperature, humidity, etc.) and
other relevant peripherals from the nodes.
Enabling remote diagnostics and data models to check
devices status, memory status, battery status, radio
performance, Quality of Services (QoS) parameters,
peripherals status, sensors status, and other relevant
parameters for remote monitoring.
Allowing to remotely lock and/or wipe the device, for
instance when the device is lost (relevant for devices in
open air, outdoor, etc.), or when the devices are stolen or
sold. It enables the remote erase of personal/enterprise
data when they are compromised.
Bluetooth, cellular connectivity, proxies, list of authorized
servers for remote  rmware upgrade and also all the
relevant parameters for enabling secure communication.
Allowing the deployment on the device policies which
the client (node, device, sensor) can execute and enforce
independently under some speci c conditions, i.e., if some
events happen, then it performs some operations.

SMART SPOT
Connecting and managing the device (default confi guration)
The Smart Spots have a pre-con gured WiFi Station
where devices will connect. This Access Point (AP) can be
easily deployed from GSM/GPRS Routers, MiFi Routers,
WiFi Access Points, etc.
The default con guration is:
SSID name: defaultSSAP
Password: defaultSSAP1234
It means that Smart Spot will search and try to connect
by default to a WiFi network with the mentioned SSID and
password.
You need to create an access point in your smartphone or
router with the default SSID name and Password for the
device to connect to the network. When this access point
is created, the device will connect automatically and it will
be visible in Homard Dashboard.
From http://staging.hopu.eu, enter with your User and
Password that we give you and can see the Homard
Dashboard options.
There are two ways to connect the Smart Spot to network
other than default network:
• WiFi Connectivity.
• APN Connectivity (SIM Card).

Easy Connect
LwM2M protocol offers two speci c objects for the
con guration of WiFi and APN connections. Carry out this
process through the offi cial OMA Objects could present
diffi culties for some users so, to facilitate the process of
con gure WiFi Stations where to connect the Smart Spot
or con gure a SIM Card (GPRS connectivity), a speci c
tool called ‘Easy connect’ has been included in Homard.
To access to the WiFi/APN con gurator tool click on the
‘Easy connect’ icon on the menu available on the left side
of the Homard interface. Then, select the device which
you want to con gure. From this point, the interface will
guide you through an easily, short and fast interface as
shown on the fi gure 2.
To con gure a new WiFi access point where to connect
the Smart Spot, the interface will request the following
information:
• Enable connection: De nes if this con guration must
be enabled or not.
• SSID Name: Name of the SSID where the device must
connect
• Password: Password of the WiFi acess point.
Finally, a summary of the con guration will be shown as
illustrated by the fi gure 6. By pressing ‘Validate’ button, the
con guration will be applied to the Smart Spot.

SMART SPOT
The process to con gure a SIM Card (APN Connection)
is quite similar, but the requested information is differs,
since it is in concordance with the con guration of a SIM
Card:
• APN: This value is provided by the
telecommunications company which offers the SIM
Card.
• APN Enable: De nes if the con guration must be
enabled or not.
• User: Optional: To be used if it is provided/required
by the telecommunications company.
• Secret: Optional: To be used if it is provided/required
by the telecommunications company.
• PIN: Optional: to be used if the SIM Card have the PIN
security method enabled.
New con gured WiFi stations are applied directly without
the need of reboot the Smart Spot, but GPRS is just
initialized after the boot process, so restart the device will
be required after con gure a new APN Connection.

Bootstrap Server
Bootstrap procedure is one of the most valuable parts
of the LwM2M protocol. Homard incorporates a LwM2M
Bootstrap Server which allow to initialise the Smart Spot
device with different con gurations (instances) such as
LwM2M Servers, WLAN Connectivity, APN Connection
pro les, ...
Currently the Homard interface allows to con gure the
LwM2M Servers where the Smart Spot will connect.
Additionally to the Homard Server provided by HOP
Ubiquitous for the management of the Smart Spot,
other LwM2M Servers such as FIWARE IoTAgents for
integration with FIWARE infrastructure, third party private
LwM2M Servers, … can be con gured.
To access to this con guration click on the ‘Bootstrap
Server’ icon on the menu available on the left side of
Homard interface. Then, select the device which you want
to con gure.
To add a new LwM2M Server press on the ‘add’ icon. This
will show a menu where to introduce a common name for
the connection and the LwM2M Server endpoint.
The LwM2M Server endpoint must have an speci c
format described below:
coap://dnsorip:port
(i.e: coap://192.168.1.100:5683 or coap://staging.hopu.
eu:5683)
Figure 7: Homard Bootstrap Server Screen

SMART SPOT
For the moment security features can not be introduced
via Homard, this a feature under development. Advanced
Con gurations allow to set speci c parameters of
LwM2M such as lifetime, default min period, default max
period, disable timeout, … If you are not sure about the
con guration of this parameters just let Homard con gure
this.
Finally press create and await until the menu is closed by
the Homard interface. Then you can come back to check
if the server is present on the con guration.
To remove a server use the ‘remove’ button. This will show
a menu with the current con gured LwM2M Servers.
Press on ‘X’ button and con rm to remove a LwM2M
Server.

To ensure that device and sensors are working, you can
enter to Health Monitoring section of Homard. Here you
will  nd information about Device Status, Performance
and Latency.
In Device Status you can observe data about the
Smart Spot CPU and Memory consumption and the
con guration of the device.
The Performance section shows information about the
Smart Spot reachability, lost messages and other alarms.
Finally, Latency section shows information about the
time it takes to perform a test and communicate with the
server.
To update the information you need to click on the Book
icon at the top right of the page. The information will be
visible at that time.
