Sense Asset User Guide
Introduction
Congratulations, you are now the proud owner of the Sense IoT Bluetooth Technology
Evaluation Kit that will help supercharge your IoT projects.
The IoT devices in this kit are called Sense Asset. As well as harnessing the power of
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) these intelligent devices include an accelerometer.
Sense Asset (Quuppa) is a BLE tag that is compatible with the Quuppa Intelligent Locating
System that allows you to locate and track the Sense Asset (Quuppa) tags in an environment
equipped with Quuppa Locators.
Other parts of the Quuppa Intelligent Locating system are Quuppa Locators and Quuppa
Positioning Engine (QPE) software.
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) –the power efficient version of Bluetooth is compatible with a
huge range of devices and infrastructure.
Due to the simplicity and price points of BLE gateways vs UHF RFID readers or LoRaWAN
gateways for example, they can be installed in high volumes in areas of high device density
to help ensure device data is read and processed quickly. This can be additionally helpful for
location-based applications where the higher density of gateways can help to increase the
accuracy of the device location given.
This kit contains:
•5 Sense Asset (Quuppa) IoT devices
•An NFC Programmer with sync cable
•Memory Stick containing Omni-ID Sense Config PC software and electronic version of
this user guide
We hope you enjoy using this kit and ‘testing your Senses’.
The Omni-ID team.

1. Tag Operation
Sense Asset is designed for tracking and monitoring applications over BLE on a Quuppa
Intelligent Locating System. Sense Asset is pre-programmed with Quuppa firmware and is
equipped with an accelerometer and an LED light to indicate device status.
The Sense Asset (Quuppa) has the following features:
•Push Button
•LED
•Accelerometer
•Pre-programed with Quuppa firmware
Sense Asset has the following built in sensor:
•Accelerometer
Push Button
LED
NFC Antenna location

Sense Asset User Guide
1.1. Activating the Sense Asset
Before using the Sense Asset you must activate and configure it for your Quuppa Intelligent
Locating System.
1. Press the button for 1 second to wake the Sense Asset (Quuppa) from storage state.
2. Within 30 seconds, send a configuration command to the Sense Asset (Quuppa) from
the Quuppa Site Planner (QSP) and add the tag to the project. For details, see
instructions on Quuppa tag configuration from the Quuppa Customer Portal (QCP).
1.2. Sense Asset 2D barcode
There is a 2D barcode located on the underside of the Sense Asset which contains the tags
ID number. The 2D barcode can be scanned with either a separate 2D barcode reader or a
suitable mobile phone app.
1.3. Sense Asset NFC Configurable Settings
Sense Asset settings can be configured via NFC. Omni-ID provides software that works with
ST Microelectronics M24LR Discovery NFC PCB tool. For further information refer to Omni-
ID ‘Sense Config PC App User Guide’.
2. Product IO Settings
The Sense Asset is equipped with a bi-colour LED and push button for alerts. The following
table details the IO configuration:
