CHAPTER 1 MPACT BLUETOOTH® SMART BEACON OVERVIEWThe MPact Platform employs Bluetooth® Smart beacons deployable in various modes, including Battery Save, iBeacon™ and MPact to unify Wi-Fi and Bluetooth® Smart Technology to capture more analytics, accuracy and insight into consumers purchasing preferences. Use Bluetooth® Smart beacons to learn which aisles and products customers prefer, their shopping history, and what influences their buying decisions.Beacon placements can be adjusted within a deployment floor plan, and depending on the mode selected, their battery life can be tracked over time. Administrators can cursor over a beacon on a site’s floor plan to assess the beacon’s remaining battery life.This guide includes the following: •Beacon Hardware Specifications and Installation•RB Beacon Part Number: MPACT-T1B20-000-WR•RB Beacon Part Number: MPACT-T1B10-000-WR•2AA Beacon Part Number: MPACT-MB2000-01-WR•Mounting and Installing the Outdoor Style Beacon•USB Beacon Part Number: MPACT-MB3000-01-WAR•Beacon Battery Replacement•Replacing RB Battery: MPACT-T1B20-000-WR and MPACT-T1B10-000-WR•Replacing 2AA Battery: MPACT-MB2000-01-WR

From the MPact Toolbox, select a site floor plan and an unassigned position for the beacon. Refer to the MPact Location & Analytics Deployment Guide for information on how to install and deploy the beacon from the Toolbox. To prepare the Outdoor style beacon for mounting: .a Prepare a surface for mounting the Outdoor style beacon with 3M VHB double-sided tape. See section 2.3.3.1 Preparing Surface for Mounting with 3M VHB Double-sided tape: on page 2-7Or .b Prepare to mount the Outdoor style beacon with two No. 6 gauge or M3.5 screws (not included). 2.3.3.1 Preparing Surface for Mounting with 3M VHB Double-sided tape:To prepare a surface before mounting the Outdoor style beacon to a wall with 3M VHB double-sided tape: Clean the surface with a 50:50 mixture of isopropyl alcohol (IPA) and water before applying 3M™ VHB™ tape. Some surfaces may require additional preparation such as the following:• Use degreasers or solvent-based cleaner to remove heavy oil or grease from a surface followed by cleaning with IPA/water • Abrade the surface, followed by cleaning with IPA/water to remove heavy dirt or oxidation and increases surface area to improve adhesion. • Prime the surface to improves initial and ultimate adhesion to many materials such as plastics and paints.. • Seal porous and fibered materials such as wood, particleboard, and concrete to provide a unified surface. After preparing the surface the Outdoor Style beacon is now ready to be mounted. 2.3.3.2 Mounting Outdoor Style BeaconTo mount a Outdoor Style beacon with 3M™ VHB™ tape: 1. Peel the plastic off from 3M™ VHB™ tape. 2. Press the backside of the Outdoor Style beacon firmly to a smooth clean mounting surface. To mount a Outdoor Style beacon with No. 6 gauge or M3.5 screws : 1. Press the backside of the beacon to the mounting surface. 2. Insert screws into the screw holes shown in Figure 2-8 on page 2-8. NOTE: If the surface is clean and smooth, the 3M VHB tape should be used to mount the beacon. However, is wood, brink or some other surface that is not smooth and clean, the 3M tape will not adhere to the surface. Use the appropriate screws for mounting (not included). When using screws to mount to a surface, do not expose the 3M VHB tape.NOTE: Zebra recommends not removing the plastic backside of the 3M tape when mounting the beacon with screws..

Beacon Hardware Specifications and Installation 2 - 112.7 Beacon Battery ReplacementWhen a beacon’s battery life is less than 20%, the beacon should be prioritized for immediate replacement. The beacon’s battery is located within a battery tray in the beacon’s housing.This section includes procedures for replacing batteries for the following part numbers:•Replacing RB Battery: MPACT-T1B20-000-WR and MPACT-T1B10-000-WR•Replacing 2AA Battery: MPACT-MB2000-01-WR2.7.1 Replacing RB Battery: MPACT-T1B20-000-WR and MPACT-T1B10-000-WRTo replace MPACT-T1B20-000-WR and MPACT-T1B10-000-WR beacon’s battery:1. Remove the beacon from the shelving unit (see information on the appropriate beacon part number).2. With the bottom of the beacon facing up, gently lift each corner of the beacon’s battery tray.Figure 2-11 shows the beacon battery housing for part number MPACT-T1B20-000-WR and MPACT-T1B10-000-WR and MPACT-T1B10-000-WR. In this example, the battery tray is on the right and the corners of the battery tray are marked in red. When gently lifting each tray corner, slightly push the each corner out to dislodge corners of the tray.Figure 2-11 Beacon Battery Housing Example: MPACT-T1B20-000-WR and MPACT-T1B20-000-WR and MPACT-T1B10-000-WR3. With both tray corners dislodged, gently slide the battery tray open, being careful not to drop the tray.Figure 2-12 shows an open battery housing. In this example, the battery tray is a separate piece, along with the battery, on the right-hand side. Figure 2-12 Battery Tray: MPACT-T1B20-000-WR and MPACT-T1B20-000-WR and MPACT-T1B10-000-WR4. Remove the old battery and dispose of properly and replace it with a new battery (Panasonic CR2450).5. Close the tray, ensuring the latch is secure.NOTE: Pay attention to the position of the + on the battery. Installing the battery backwards may damage the Beacon
