This page will provide step-by-step instructions on how to add/setup a new locator within the Blyott Platform
INSTRUCTION GUIDE FOR LOCATORS:
Select the ‘Locators’ tab from the left-hand panel (take note that different screen sizes change the layout of the panel, on smaller screens the panel will be on the right side because of the responsiveness of the webpage - RWD).
Click on the “+” sign from the top left corner of the screen to add a new locator
Fixed Locator (BT-L1):
- "Locator"= name you give your locator, e.g. Locator 1
- "ID"= MAC address as indicated on the bottom of the BT-L1. Enter the MAC address in capital letters and without the semicolons (:). Contact us if you need the Wi-Fi and/or Ethernet MAC address(es) of this device (e.g. for firewall rules).
- "Type"= choose "Fixed" as standard value
- "Location"= select one of the Locations you defined
- "Hardware Model" = Select BT-L1
- Serial Number, IMSI, IMEI = leave empty
- Click on Save
Mobile Locator (BT-M1):
- "Locator" = name you give your locator, e.g. Locator 1
- "ID" = IMEI number as indicated on the back of the BT-M1
- "Type" = choose "Fixed" as standard value
- "Location" = select one of the Locations you defined
- "Hardware Model" = select BT-M1
- Serial Number, IMSI, IMEI = leave empty
- Click on Save
Note:
In case the Locator is installed in a moving vehicle, select for “Type = Mobile”. Now the location will be calculated using the built-in GPS modem of the BT-M1.
Once the locator(s) have been setup and are active, they can be searched for within the platform by selecting the ‘filter’ icon from the top right corner of the screen.
Only users with ‘Administration’ access will be able to create new Locators within the platform.
