¶ Description
Tracking is performed using wearable or asset tags. They are tracked by the infrastructure (Minew gateways ) mounted on site.
Minew locator (gateway) that is mounted on the wall or ceiling receives data from BLE-asset tags. Then it sends data to the Navigine server using cable connection or Wi-Fi.
¶ Hardware setup. Minew gateways configuration.
To configure Minew gateways you need to connect and go to the Minew web interface, for example, this can be done by connecting via Wi-Fi, where name SSID is “GW-mac_address” of Minew.
Connect to the gateway at 192.168.99.1
Make sure the firmware version is 3.2.1 or higher, if you need to update below.
Next, you need to choose Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection (instruction describe wifi connection).
Then you need to create a profile, for example «Navigine».
After these steps, you choose SSID of your Wi-Fi network, Encryption and enter the password.
Then press «Save profile only» and after creating profile restart gateway.
