1.Introduction 
Yanzi Networks delivers an end-to-end, horizontal, and all-IP software Internet of Things platform. We 
offer sensors, gateways, and Cirrus, a cloud platform solution packaged into a Software as a Service 
solution (SaaS) for Smart Building applications. The horizontal and all-IP approach provides a solution 
that is fast, robust, and transformative. 
1.1 Best Technology 
All IP technology, all the way to the sensor, ensures powerful scaling to thousands of sensors and 
excellent cost efficiency. Yanzi Networks focus on open standards and leverage the widely deployed 
protocols such as 4G/LTE, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and the low power "brother" to Wi-Fi, IEEE 802.15.4, which 
enables battery operated sensors to last for 10+ years. 
1.2 Easiest to install 
Automatic security provisioning provides best-in-class installation provided by the patent pending zero-
touch configuration. Sensor installation do not need trained installers but can leverage the employees on 
site. The optimized power management deliver very long battery life which secure a minimum of 
maintenance required once installed.  
1.3 Enterprise security 
Yanzi Networks combines ease of installation and maintenance with enterprise security. It is a highly 
secure solution with all links in Cloud and to Gateway being authenticated with client and server 
certificates and all communication is made using SSL encryption. All local communication, between the 
sensors and the Gateway, is encrypted for both wired and wireless solutions. Each sensor has an 
individual key and can be revoked remotely.  
1.4 Cirrus Software as a Service 
The Yanzi Cirrus Software as a Service provides Device and Gateway management at a new level. The 
Cirrus data model allow access to any data originating from any location with a uniform interface without 
the need to understand the sensor details. A secure Gateway-to-Cloud connector to multiple redundant 
link servers provides reliable remote access to Gateway. 
The Cirrus open API is a JSON over web socket API where all operations are authenticated. The API 
supports both hot and cold data paths.

2.Installation Planning 
2.1 Infrastructure 
The infrastructure has two parts: The Gateway and the IoT network. The Gateway is the brains of the 
system and manage all sensors, collects all data, and keeps a communication channel open to the Cloud. 
The IoT network is required to enable sensors to communicate with the Gateway. The IoT network is 
completely built on IP communication, same as on the Internet. The IoT network is built using one or 
more Access Points, just like a WiFi network is built. The Access Points communicate with the Gateway 
using standard Ethernet connectivity. For more information on networks and wireless technologies, 
please see support sections below. 
Before ordering any infrastructure products, the first step is to decide type of Internet connection and way 
to build the IoT network according to the following sections. 
2.1.1Connecting the Gateway to Internet 
Gateways can be connected to the Internet in two ways: 
1)Sharing the Internet connection already available in the building or 
2)Using a mobile broadband uplink 
Sharing the Internet connection does not mean the IoT network must run on the corporate network. It 
means using a separate port on the customer’ firewall to create a separate network that only provides 
Internet access. 
2.1.2Building the IoT Network 
The IoT Network can be built in two ways. 
1)If there are Ethernet cabling available in the building, it may be possible to use a single Gateway 
and connect that to one or more Access Points using those Ethernet cables. 
2)If there are no Ethernet cabling available and it is not possible to pull new cables, the IoT 
network is built using one or more Gateways. Most of the Gateways have access points 
capabilities already built-in so a small IoT network can be created around each Gateway. These 
Gateways all communicate separately with the Cloud and can be made into a single virtual 
location in the Cloud. 
2.1.3Infrastructure Examples 
Small system where only one Gateway is enough to create the wireless IoT network. Internet connectivity 
can be provided using Ethernet (on the left) or using built-in mobile broadband in the Gateway (on the 
right).

by sharing a port on the existing firewall or using an external mobile broadband router. 
•DHCP addresses are required for the Gateway and the Access Points 
•The Gateway communicates with the Access Points using UPnP and SSL over Ethernet 
•Internet connection only requires outgoing port 443 and 4445. No inwards connection required.

2.2 Use Cases 
Depending on which use case to cover, the type and position of sensors may vary. Two typical use cases 
are shown below for space utilization and comfortability. 
2.2.1Space Utilization 
For space utilization, Yanzi Motion/Presence sensors are added under the table at each work desk chair 
and at each chair of larger conference rooms (typically rooms with 6 chairs or more) to detect usage. For 
room usage, Yanzi Motion/Presence or Yanzi Motion+ is placed on the wall (rooms larger than 20m2 are 
recommended to use two sensors to make sure the whole room is covered). Selection between 
Motion/Presence sensor and Motion+ sensor depends on if comfortability use case also should be covered 
as the Motion+ sensor monitors more things than the Motion/Presence sensor. 
Motion/Presence sensors may also be used for restroom utilization to monitor each stall as well as the 
washroom. 
Footfall cameras may be placed in the ceiling of each entrance to the building and can as well be placed 
at the entrance to any area where specific information is wanted. The footfall cameras are connected to 
the Gateway using Ethernet/PoE. This proposal do not focus on footfall cameras. 
2.2.2Comfortability 
For comfortability, the work environment is monitored using for example CO2, temperature, humidity, 
barometric pressure, volatile organic compounds (VOC), ambient light and ambient noise sensors. Yanzi 
Comfort sensors are placed in each room (conference room, phone booths, locker room, etc.) where 
people are present for longer periods of time as well spread out in open work spaces. In open work 
spaces, recommendation is to use one Yanzi Comfort for each 15-25 work desks. 
Yanzi Motion+ are used to monitor occupancy and light at work desks (preferably placed in the ceiling 
where it covers about 6-8 work desks depending on height of ceiling). It is also used to monitor 
utilization of smaller rooms such as conference rooms, phone booths, locker rooms, storage rooms, 
kitchens, restrooms, etc.

2.3 Installation Tool 
One of the important parts after the installation is to know where sensors have been placed. The mapping 
between the sensor unique ID and the physical location is done at time of installation using the Yanzi 
installation tool in Yanzi Live. This is a browser based installation tool that allows for quick installation 
of many sensors. 
Prior to installation, make sure the floor map(s) has been provided to Yanzi and added to your account.

3.Installation of Infrastructure 
Gateways are recommended to be peered prior to installation. Peering means connecting the Gateway to a 
specific account. Users can then be added or removed from this account to control access. Peering is done 
using the installation tool or provided as remote support by Yanzi. Yanzi needs the Gateway ID (printed 
on the Gateway label), the location name it should have, as well as a user with administrative rights for 
this account. 
Make sure the infrastructure is always built prior to installing any sensors. Install the Gateway and 
connect it to Internet. Install the Access Points and connect them to the same network as the Gateway 
according to the pictures above. 
The wireless IoT network created around Access Points have a range of about 500-1,500 m2 (~ 5,000-
15,000ft2). The actual range depends heavily on walls, obstacles, materials, and number of potential mesh 
nodes (This is very similar to WiFi access points). Wireless coverage is affected for example by elevator 
shafts (lots of metal), bathrooms (water and thick walls), and other radio disturbances such as WiFi 
access points and microwave ovens. 
IoT Access Points (or Gateways with mobile broadband) is shown below with an approximated wireless 
coverage shown as orange circles. In this specific building, two Access Points per floor is enough.

4.Teams and Equipment 
Most efficient is usually to have installer teams of 2-3 persons. Multiple teams can work in parallel for 
quicker sensor installations. 1 person places the sensor on the floor map and scans the QR code. 1-2 
persons place the sensor on the correct spot in the building. 
Each installation team needs 
•Laptop with Chrome browser 
oInternet access is required for the laptop as installation tool is web based 
•QR code scanner 
oSuch as the Motorola, Symbol, or Zebra DS6708  
•Plastic bins for carrying sensors 
•Access to all rooms in building where sensors are to be placed

5.Sensor Handling Tips 
5.1 Battery lid 
To open and close the battery lid, gently push the back side label close to the battery lid with your thumb 
and slide the battery lid downwards with your other hand. 
5.2 Sensor element 
The sensor elements must be handled with care as these are sensitive parts. 
5.3 Battery insertion 
The battery powered sensors operate with 4 batteries, note the polarity when inserting the batteries. 
Polarity is always shown in the sensors battery compartment as well as on the battery itself.  
It is very important to follow the battery requirements when inserting batteries, see page 16. 
Verify that the front panel LED is turned on within 5 seconds after inserting batteries. Note that it may 
only be turned on for a very short while to save battery. If you do not see the LED come on even for a 
short while, please remove the batteries and re-insert them again. If it still doesn’t work, please see the 
Troubleshooting section. 
5.4 External power input 
For sensor requiring an external power supply, insert the USB-C connector on the bottom side of the 
sensor carefully until a “click” is detected. See each product manual for more details. 
Verify that the front panel LED is turned on within 5 seconds after inserting power.

6.Placement of Sensors 
General tips on placement 
•Try to place the sensors in discrete locations 
•Place sensors along walls at about  
150-170 cm (60-70 inches) from floor 
•Sensors are attached using screws or adhesive tape 
•Target wood, plastic, or metal surfaces that are flat 
•Avoid wall papers as they may break if sensor must be removed 
•Avoid painted walls when using adhesive tape as modern paint is efficient in repelling adhesive 
tape 
•Remove tape cover and press firmly ON THE SLEEVE for 10 seconds. After 10 seconds, the 
adhesive tape is strong enough to hold the sensor. Full adhesiveness is reached after 72 hours. 
Yanzi Motion+ 
•Place on wall of smaller rooms such as conference rooms and phone booths 
•Place in ceiling above groups of 4-8 work desks 
Yanzi Comfort 
•Place on wall not close to work desk 
•Requires a power outlet within 0.5 meters (longer cables available as accessory) 
Yanzi Presence for work desks 
•Place under work desk about an arm’s length from edge 
Yanzi Presence for conference room chairs 
•Place under conference room table at each chair about an arms length from edge 
Yanzi Presence for conference room corner 
•Place in corner of smaller rooms and along walls in larger rooms 
•Face away from windows to avoid direct sunlight 
•Face away from door to avoid detecting people walking outside the room 
•Use multiple sensors for large rooms (>20m2)

8.Wireless 
For high speed devices, Ethernet and WiFi is the typical communication mediums used. For very low 
power devices such as battery driven devices, a sister protocol to WiFi is used that is called the IEEE 
802.15.4. 
IEEE 802.15.4 has about the same range as WiFi and normally operates on the same ISM band, 2.4GHz. 
There are Sub-GHz solutions for IEEE 802.15.4 as well but for normal high density installations, it is not 
required for reach.

9.Working with Sensors 
9.1 LED Behavior 
All sensors have a dual color LED that can indicate green or orange. The typical LED behaviors are 
shown in the table below. 
Sensor LED State  Description  Note 
Off  Power is off or sensor is in sleep  All sensor turn the LED off a short 
while after power has been applied to 
avoid light pollution. A short press on 
the button turns the LED on to display 
status if sensor has power.

Yanzi Networks  Installation Manual – Smart Office  16 of 19 
10.Battery Requirements 
It is very important to follow these guidelines to avoid serious injuries. Bad handling of batteries may 
cause them to leak, potentially rapidly, creating a risk of injury as the internals of batteries are very 
corrosive. It is recommended to use Alkaline batteries in most use cases and Lithium (LiFeS2) for cold 
use cases. 
•Note the polarity of the batteries when inserting them. Polarity is always shown in the battery 
compartment as well as on the battery itself. 
•Note the voltage of the batteries. There are several voltages available for the same size of 
batteries. See the product manual for details on which battery to use. 
•Never mix type of batteries. Only use the same type of chemical compound in all batteries. 
•Never mix old and new batteries. Make sure all batteries used are from the same package. 
•Do not use old batteries. Batteries older than 2 years should be avoided as they may have aged 
differently and therefore have different voltages. 
•If batteries get warm within 5 seconds after insertion, remove the batteries immediately. 
•It is recommended to use protective glasses when working with batteries.

11.Post Installation  
Following the successful completion of the Yanzi smart building installation, we recommend you to send 
an internal email to all company team members informing them of the reasons for the installation. It is 
important is to explain the purpose of the installation and to clarify that no images, video, or sound is ever 
recorded and that their privacy is respected and maintained at all time. We then advise you to focus on all 
the benefits the installation will bring, e.g. a constant monitoring of CO2 and temperature that will allow 
continuous improvements of the climate environment at the office.
