How to setup Zoneidents

Zoneidents can be used to define fixed coordinates or zones for known tokens (e.g. MAC-addresses of WiFi access points). 

For the BLE Starter Kit, two Zoneidents are required per gateway. 

• Zoneident for the gateway (needs the gateways IMEI) 

• Zoneident for the BLE tags (requires the gateway serial number) 

You will find the IMEI and serial number as a sticker on the gateway. 

Alternatively, you can find the two numbers in the raw data of the tracking data records. To do so, proceed as follows. 

1. Select Settings from the menu and click the tile Tags. 
2. Choose the required tag type from the list. 
   1. Gateway (Example: cdmg1_960062) 
   2. BLE tag Teltonika (Example: bttes_7CD9f4027709)
3. Click Raw Data in the detailed view on the right.
4. Select any data record from the list.
5. In the detailed view on the right, locate the two numbers. 

1. 1. Gateway: "zone_ident": "353760970460152" (IMEI) 
   2. BLE tag: "relay_id": "c:960062" (serial number) 

Create Zoneident for a static Gateway

Configuring the Zoneident for a static gateway ensures that its exact location is defined and remains constant.

1. Open the BOX ID software.
2. Select Settings from the menu.
3. Click the tile Zoneidents.
4. Click the plus symbol. This will open the entry mask Create Zoneident.
5. In the field Name, enter a distinct name for the Zoneident. The name can be chosen freely. One option is to use the name of the zone in which the gateway is installed and add _GW to the entry (e.g.: Warehouse_C_GW).
6. In the field Type, select Relay (mounted).
7. In the field Token, enter the IMEI of your gateway. Click the plus symbol and select the zone in which the gateway is physically located.
8. Activate the map view by setting the slider for Coordinates to On. Hereby a pin is created in the middle of the zone, representing the corresponding gateway.
9. By entering the exact coordinates, you can move the pin to the correct position of the gateway. Alternatively, you can move the pin, using the mouse. When you click on the pin It will then turn blue, and you can move it to the new position.
10. Click Create to save the Zoneident.

6. In the field Type, select Relay (mounted).
7. Under Token, enter the serial number of the gateway or the relay_id of the BLE beacon in the format c:Serial number of the gateway (e.g.: c:960062).
8. Click the plus symbol and select the zone in which the gateway is physically located.
9. Click Create to save the Zoneident.
