TRX Systems Inc. Document Version 1.3 Neon™ Indoor Location System User’s Manual 3 October 2012 TRX Systems Proprietary © 2012 TRX Systems, Inc. 2 3 Product Overview The TRX Systems Neon™ Indoor Location System locates and tracks personnel indoors and where GPS is unreliable or unavailable. Neon™ fuses location and environment information to produce and deliver accurate, real-time locations of tracked personnel. Figure 1. The Neon Indoor Location System. The TRX Systems Neon Indoor Location System consists of the following elements:  Tracking Unit – a tracking device worn on the waist of persons being tracked by Neon. The waist-worn tracking unit provides location information from a dense array of sensors including pressure, accelerometers, gyroscopes, magnetometers, ranging, and GPS. For the Neon system to work properly, the Tracking Units should be worn properly and periodically calibrated. Section 6.1 of this manual describes how to properly wear the Neon Tracking Unit.  Neon Mobile – an Android Application installed on a smartphone. Neon Mobile is used for visualization of users’ location; interacting with NFC Check-in locations; user entry of location corrections; and may be used for data communications with the Tracking Unit and the Command Software. For the Neon system to work properly, the Android smartphone and the Neon Mobile application must be properly configured for communications with the Tracking Unit and the Command Software. Section 8 of this manual describes how to properly configure the Neon Mobile application.
TRX Systems Inc. Document Version 1.3 Neon™ Indoor Location System User’s Manual 3 October 2012 TRX Systems Proprietary © 2012 TRX Systems, Inc. 3  Neon Command Station Software – the Neon Station Command Software (“Command Software”) is the primary user interface for interacting with the Neon Indoor Location System. The Command Software runs on a Windows-based PC, and it provides access to functions for configuring the Indoor Location System and viewing location results. Section 0 of this manual provides a description of the Command Software including installation and licensing (Section 5.1.3); starting and stopping the software (Section 5.1.1); and viewing tracking results (Section 5.2).  Ranging Anchor Node – a multi-sensor anchor node that improves tracking accuracy. Ranging Anchor Nodes are installed at strategic locations to maximize their effectiveness for improving tracking accuracy. Refer to section 9 of this manual for information about how to install and configure Ranging Anchor Nodes.  Command Station Reference – A Command Station Reference is a Ranging Anchor Node that is attached directly to the Command Software computer using a USB cable. The Command Software Reference provides the same function as a Ranging Anchor Node, but it provides additional reference sensor data to improve accuracy. Section 10 describes the proper configuration of the Command Station reference.  NFC Check-In Location – an NFC RFID tag that is used to provide location updates of tracked personnel. A tracked person interacts with a Check-in Location by placing their phone equipped with the Neon Mobile Android App close enough to the Check-In Location to activate the NFC RFID tag. Refer to section 11 of this manual for information about how to install and configure NFC Check-In Locations. 4 Neon Target Applications The NeonTM Indoor Location system is qualified for use in mission essential applications such as event/facility security and training, profiled in the following sections. Additionally, enhancements to the system will allow deployment in a wide array of mission critical applications to deliver situational awareness for tactical deployments (SWAT, urban search & rescue, fireground operations, etc.). 4.1 Event/VIP Security The Neon Indoor Location System delivers a highly portable solution for obtaining enhanced situational awareness for event security applications where VIPs are being monitored, or where security personnel are positioned to secure an important event or facility. The Neon System delivers location and status of on-foot security personnel within buildings to enhance situational awareness and improve the effectiveness of incident management. In this application, each member of the security detail is equipped with a TRX Tracking unit and an android-based cellular device or data-compatible radio. The location of all security personnel is shown in both 2D and 3D within the building in which the event is taking place (both from the Command Software operating on a laptop or from an Android handset or tablet). If there is an emergency, the appropriate personnel can be moved into place.
TRX Systems Inc. Document Version 1.3 Neon™ Indoor Location System User’s Manual 3 October 2012 TRX Systems Proprietary © 2012 TRX Systems, Inc. 4 Feature Description Location and Tracks The location of tracked personnel and the path each person took to get to their current location. Level Information Elevation information includes the floor level of each tracked personnel within a multi-story building, above and below ground. Position and Gate Identification of motions of personnel including as walking, running, crawling, traversing stairs and riding elevators. Activity level (active or motionless) and posture (standing, crawling or on back) are also provided. User Interface A 2D and 3D view of personnel operating within the building. Map/Building Editing A 3D view of the building in which the event is occurring can be quickly established, using only a satellite base map as a reference (Bing/Open Street Maps are both supported by Neon, and customers can import their own base maps). Floor plans images can be easily important from a standard image file. Alerting Command Station operator will be alerted when tracked personnel are on-back or encounter impacts. Anchor Nodes Neon Multisensor Anchor Nodes are deployed in key areas (within closets, hotel rooms, conference areas) to enhance tracking accuracy. Anchor Nodes operate using line or battery power. No interaction from tracked personnel is required, and no networking of Anchor Nodes is required. Check-In Automatic Check-in of Security Personnel is performed through the use of their Android-based Check-in Application. Event Review The log of each of the Security Personnel is maintained to be used for review of execution of the security detail after the event. If pre-planning is performed, this log may be used to review and ensure the appropriate building security functions were performed in advance of the event. 4.2 Security Personnel Training Security training for urban search & rescue and other emergency response operations are conducted in either dense urban areas or inside buildings where it can be difficult to obtain adequate insight into the execution of the training mission. The NeonTM Indoor Location System allows real-time tracking of the location and motion of personnel and records this information to be replayed for immediate and effective after action reviews. Aspects of the system important for training deployments include the ability to quickly deploy the system with little support from existing surrounding infrastructure (power, networking) and the ability to rapidly create visualization of urban buildings in 3D to allow training anywhere. Neon Multisensor Anchor Nodes can be flexibly deployed within buildings, and require no power, networking, or personnel interaction.
TRX Systems Inc. Document Version 1.3 Neon™ Indoor Location System User’s Manual 3 October 2012 TRX Systems Proprietary © 2012 TRX Systems, Inc. 5 In this application, each trainee is equipped with a TRX Tracking unit and an android-based cellular device or data-compatible radio. The location of all trainees are shown in both 2D and 3D within the building in which the event is taking place (both from the Command Software operating on a laptop or from an Android handset or tablet). Personnel undergoing training may use the handheld to review the geography and building in which the mission will take place to assist in planning the mission. After a mission has been executed, it is possible to immediately replay the mission, showing the location and orientation of each of the personnel in training as the mission was executed. Feature Description Location and Tracks The real-time location of personnel and the path each person took to get to their current location. Level Information Elevation information includes the floor level of each tracked personnel within a multi-story building, above and below ground. Position and Gate Identification of motions of personnel including as walking, running, crawling, traversing stairs and riding elevators. Activity level (active or motionless) and posture (standing, crawling or on back) are also provided. User Interface A real-time 2D and 3D view of all personnel involved in the mission is provided during the execution. Map/Building Editing A 3D view of the building in which the event is occurring can be quickly established, using only a satellite base map as a reference (Bing/Open Street Maps are both supported by Neon, and customers can import their own base maps). Floor plans images can be easily important from a standard image file.* Alerting Command Station operator will be alerted when tracked personnel are on-back or encounter impacts. Anchor Nodes Neon Multisensor Anchor Nodes are deployed in key areas (within closets, hotel rooms, conference areas) to enhance tracking accuracy. Anchor Nodes operate using line or battery power. No interaction from tracked personnel is required, and no networking of Anchor Nodes is required. Check-In Automatic Check-in of Security Personnel is performed through the use of their Android-based Check-in Application. After Action Review Each mission can be stored for after action reviews, and can be named to allow easy association of the mission with the data log. Such reviews can be performed immediately after an event or later after a series of missions have been executed. *Existing building editing features allow for rapid deployment of training where little is known abou the building, and where floor plans may not be available (and when they are available, are likely to be image files). Additional development is ongoing to support close combat training that includes the ability to establish and configure precise floor plans, and to respect floor plan boundaries (e.g., walls, doorways).

TRX Systems Inc. Document Version 1.3 Neon™ Indoor Location System User’s Manual 3 October 2012 TRX Systems Proprietary © 2012 TRX Systems, Inc. 26 7 Neon Communications Options Each Neon Tracking Unit is paired with a portable, personal computing device to support transmission of location and sensor information from the Tracking Unit to the Command Software. The Command Station Computer must be configured appropriately to receive the data, as described in the following subsections. 7.1 Motorola APX The Neon™ Indoor Location System is designed to work with Motorola APX portable radios operating in conventional mode. Motorola APX Radios are capable of providing data communications between the TRX Systems Tracking Unit and the Command Software. In this configuration, an APX radio is carried by each tracked person, and a single gateway radio is connected into the Command Station computer. Each tracked person pairs their Motorola APX radio and TRX Systems tracking unit using Bluetooth. An APX radio is connected to the Command Station using a GCAI-to-USB cable. When properly configured, a Tracking Unit will automatically report location sensor data to the command station using the radio network. Ensure that your Motorola APX radios are equipped with the correct options and programmed with the correct frequencies for your deployment. Motorola APX Requirements  IV&D (packet data) - Q947  Bluetooth - QA00583 7.1.1 Connecting an APX Radio to the Command Station Connect the APX gateway radio to the command station computer using a GCAI-to-USB cable then turn the APX gateway radio on.

Connection status indicators on the Tracking Unit and APX portable radio. 7.1.3 Connecting to a Neon Session To connect to a Neon Session, start Neon Command Station Software. Ensure that an APX radio is connected to the command station and turned on. Each tracked person should: (1) attach a Tracking Unit securely around their waist with the TRX Systems logo facing outwards; (2) turn on the paired APX portable radio; (3) turn on their Tracking Unit. 7.2 Cellular or Wi-Fi (via an Android-based mobile handset) When cellular or Wi-Fi connectivity is used, the Neon Mobile Application provides the interface to the Tracking Unit via Bluetooth pairing. Configuration of the Tracking Unit-Neon Mobile pairing is described in Section 8 of this document. In this configuration, the Command Station interfaces to either a cellular data network (e.g., through a mobile data card with a static, public IP address) or interfaces to a Wi-Fi data network (again, with a static address). This static address must be programmed into the Android application. If a dynamic address is used (e.g., in a test configuration), the dynamic address must be programmed into Neon mobile each time it changes (which may happen when the Command Software application is restarted).
TRX Systems Inc. Document Version 1.3 Neon™ Indoor Location System User’s Manual 3 October 2012 TRX Systems Proprietary © 2012 TRX Systems, Inc. 30 8 Neon™ Mobile Android Application The TRX Android Tracking Application provides a local user interface and supports use of cell or Wi-Fi communications to send location Tracking Unit data the Command Software. It will also be possible to use Neon Mobile as a visualizer when using a radio for comunications. The Neon Mobile user interface displays personnel locations inside an outside of buildings; allows a user to update their own position using Waypoints; and allows the user to interact with Neon NFC Check-In Locations. 8.1 Getting Started If Neon Mobile is already installed, the Neon Application Icon will appear in your Apps folder. Click on that icon to activate the application. If this is the first time you have installed the software, you will be asked to review and accept the terms of service and a series of setup screens will guide you through the setup process, including configuration of your user name, Command Software IP Address, and pairing with the Tracking Unit that will be associated with this Android Device. 8.2 Starting, Stopping, and Controlling when Neon Runs After installation, Neon runs automatically when you startup your handset. You can exit the application by selecting the “back” button on your device. At that time you will be asked whether you want to shutdown Neon Services before going to the home screen. If you select “yes” the application will shut down (including any communications with the Command Software, if the Android Device is being used for communications). If you say “No”, the application visualize will shut down but the application process will remain running in the background. 8.3 Using the software To begin using the software, click on the Neon Mobile icon in your applications folder (titled “Neon”). After launching, the map will be visible. 8.3.1 System Status Select “menu” and then “status” to see the status of all elements of the system, including:  Device name and logical address.  Command Software IP address and connection status  Tracking Unit logical address and Bluetooth pairing status  GPS location coordinates (i.e., the coordinates being MenuFigure 36: NEON Mobile Application Figure 37: NEON Mobile Application Icon Figure 38: Neon Mobile Status Screen
TRX Systems Inc. Document Version 1.3 Neon™ Indoor Location System User’s Manual 3 October 2012 TRX Systems Proprietary © 2012 TRX Systems, Inc. 31 reported by GPS, if any) and GPS lock status  Global fix status indicating whether there is some global knowledge of where you are, either through GPS, NFC check-in, ranging to an anchor node, or manual Waypoint selection or establishment from the Neon Mobile interface.  Neon Mapping status including an indication of whether the device has a valid Bing maps key. Click on the question mark for more information and on the “gear” to configure that system element. 8.3.2 Map The default view of Neon Mobile is the map view which provides a view of the base layer map. In addition to the traditional Android menu selector, a row of menu and status items are also embedded within the software and appear at the top of the map. The first four icons (appearing from left to right) provide a quick indication of the following:  Command Software Status  Tracking Unit Status  GPS Status  Global Fix Status If any of these have an alert, an exclamation point will appear within the status icon. Clicking on any of these icons will bring the user back to the status screen described in the prior section.

TRX Systems Inc. Document Version 1.3 Neon™ Indoor Location System User’s Manual 3 October 2012 TRX Systems Proprietary © 2012 TRX Systems, Inc. 32 8.3.3 Personnel The personnel screen is also available through the menu. This screen identifies team members that are also connected to the same Command Software, along with both the name and logical identifier of the Tracking Unit. If the map icon is available beside a user, clicking on it will center your map interface on that user’s location. 8.3.4 Waypoints Waypoints are defined locations that may be used for reference or to update user location. It is possible to establish waypoints from the Command Software or from Neon Mobile. If established previously from the Command Software (reference section 5.2.5), the waypoints will show up with their location marked on the user interface and on the Waypoint screen (Figure ) which is accessible from the menu. To establish a Waypoint from Neon Mobile, open the Waypoint screen and click on the + in the upper right hand corner. This will open a dialog box that allows you to create a named waypoint at your current estimated location (Figure ). Another method that can be used if the current estimate is incorrect, press and hold on the map display at the correct location of the place that the user is standing. (It is recommended that the user zoom in so that the most accurate location can be established.) Two things then happen: 1) a Waypoint is established at the location on the map that they are pressing (the Waypoint name is automatically generated) and 2) the user’s location is automatically updated (i.e., “user-corrected”) to that new Waypoint. To check-in at an existing Waypoint, the user can either press and hold on the Waypoint icon on the map screen (the user will be queried if they want to check in), or the user can open the Waypoint screen (Figure ) and press on the check mark icon next to the name of the Waypoint at which the user wants to check-in. Figure 40: NEON Mobile Personnel Screen
TRX Systems Inc. Document Version 1.3 Neon™ Indoor Location System User’s Manual 3 October 2012 TRX Systems Proprietary © 2012 TRX Systems, Inc. 33 Figure 41: Neon Mobile Waypoint Creation Figure 42: Neon Mobile Waypoint Check-in If a map icon is available beside a Waypoint, clicking on it will center your map interface on the location of that Waypoint. Debug Waypoints are Waypoints that are used for evaluation only and do not affect the user’s path (refer to section Error! Reference source not found.). A debug waypoint is any waypoint which has a name starting with “DEBUG”. The accuracy of a Waypoint check-in is 1 meter (i.e., the system assumes you are within one meter or an “arms-reach” from the waypoint at which you are checking in). 8.4 NFC Check-Ins In addition to Waypoints, Neon Mobile allows for the use of Near Field Communications (NFC) anchors which are called “check-in locations” by the Command Software. To enable this functionality, the Neon “NFCCheckin” application must be installed on the mobile device. If Checkin Locations have been configured by the Command Software, it will be possible to perform a location update by placing your phone (with the Neon Mobile application running) in front of the Checkin Anchor. The phone will beep to indicate the location update has been successfully performed. 8.5 Installation and Upgrade Installation of the NOEN Mobile application requires downloading the NeonHH application to your phone. The most straightforward ways to do this are the following:  Attach the handset to the computer using a USB and it will show up as a USB-connected device (this may take a few minutes if it is the first time you have connected the handset). Move the Neon Mobile Application (NeonHH) to your “downloads” folder.  Assuming Internet connectivity is available, it is also possible to email the application to the handset. Upon downloading, the Neon Mobile Application (NeonHH) will appear in your “downloads” folder.
TRX Systems Inc. Document Version 1.3 Neon™ Indoor Location System User’s Manual 3 October 2012 TRX Systems Proprietary © 2012 TRX Systems, Inc. 34 Click on the application (NeonHH_release#.apk) and you will be asked to either install or replace the application. If you do replace the application, all previous user data will be maintained. In addition to Neon mobile, the Neon NFC Checking application must also be installed if NFC checkins are being used. Again, it is possible to perform this installation or to update that application by moving the application to your downloads folder via a connected USB interface or by emailing that file to the handset and clicking on the .apk file. 9 Neon™ Ranging Anchor Node A Neon Ranging Anchor Node is a multi-sensor anchor node that improves tracking accuracy. Ranging Anchor Nodes are installed at strategic locations to maximize their effectiveness for improving tracking accuracy. Please read the FCC information located in Appendix B. FCC Information prior to operating this device. Ranging Anchor Nodes share the same form factor as the Neon Tracking Unit. However, Tracking Units and Anchor Nodes are not interchangeable. To prevent an Anchor Node from being inadvertently worn as a Tracking Unit, Anchor Nodes are assembled with only one D-Ring. Figure 43. Neon Ranging Anchor Node. Ranging Anchor Nodes are assigned a unique reference ID that is used when configuring the Neon Indoor Location System. Each ranging anchor node is labeled with a Reference ID that is entered into the Command Software configuration when placing anchors during installation. To configure the system to use a ranging anchor node, it must be added to the system using the References sidebar window in the Command Software User Interface. The location of the Ranging Anchor is configured by dragging the Ranging Anchor Node from the References window onto the Visualizer screen. Refer to section 5.2.4 for information about using the References window. The Ranging Anchor Node accepts power through its mini-USB port, and it can take power during normal operation. Like the tracking unit, the Ranging Anchor Node can run off of battery.
TRX Systems Inc. Document Version 1.3 Neon™ Indoor Location System User’s Manual 3 October 2012 TRX Systems Proprietary © 2012 TRX Systems, Inc. 35 10 Neon™ Command Station Reference A Command Station Reference is a Tracking Unit or Ranging Anchor Node that is attached directly to the Command Software computer using a USB cable. The Command Station Reference provides the same function as a Ranging Anchor Node, but it provides additional reference sensor data to improve accuracy. Please read the FCC information located in Appendix B. FCC Information prior to operating this device. Figure 44. The Command Software Reference is attached directly to the computer hosting the Neon Command Software. The Neon Command Station Reference provides the same functionality as the Ranging Anchor Nodes. The Command Software Reference does not use a Reference ID. Instead, the Command Software Reference is always pre-populated in the list of Neon User Interface References. The Command Station Reference is charged the same way as the Tracking Unit and Ranging Anchor Node. Generally, the Command Software Reference will take power from the Command Software computer. 11 Neon™ NFC Check-In Location A Neon NFC Check-In Location is an NFC RFID tag that is used to provide location updates of tracked personnel. A tracked person interacts with a Check-in Location by placing their phone equipped with the Neon Mobile Android App close enough to the Check-In Location to activate the NFC RFID tag.

Each NFC Check-In Location is assigned a unique Reference ID that is used to configure the Neon Indoor Location System. The NFC Check-In Location ID is a four-digit number that is printed on the tag, and it is entered into the Command Software when placing the NFC Check-In Locations. The location of the NFC Check-In Location ID depends on the form factor. On lanyard cards, the ID is printed across the bottom of the card. As described in section 5.2.4, use the References sidebar window in the Command Software User Interface to configure the Neon System to use the Check-In Location.
