16 System Manager User Guide | System Manager 2.0 4.5 Deleting a Campus/Building/Floor Once a campus, building, or floor is deleted it cannot be recovered. Be absolutely certain before deleting. NOTE: Deleting a parent level item deletes all children beneath it. For example, deleting a building deletes all floors in that building as well. 1. From the list on the left, drill down to the item you want to delete and select it. The selected item is bolded in the list.
17 System Manager User Guide | System Manager 2.0 2. In the manager window, click Delete. If you are deleting a floor, the window will be the Floor Manager. If you are deleting a building, it will be the Building Manager. The floor will no longer appear in the list. 4.6 Defining an Area In order to run a room test or for Tags to register entry/exit, you must define areas on each floor that Tags will be on. 1. From the list of the left, drill down to find the floor where you want to define an area and select. The selected floor is bold and the map for the floor loads into the viewer.
18 System Manager User Guide | System Manager 2.0 2. Using the polygon or rectangle tool, draw an outline around the area you are defining. NOTE: You may want to zoom in as much as possible on the map before starting to define your area in order to make it as accurate as possible. To complete a polygonal area, double-click after clicking the last point. Once the area is completed it will be blue.
19 System Manager User Guide | System Manager 2.0 3. Single click the area once to select it. The area turns orange. 4. In the Area Manager fields at the top, enter a name for the area then select a region type from the Region Type drop-down list.
20 System Manager User Guide | System Manager 2.0 Typical usage types include Patient Care Area or Cafeteria. See Region Typing for standard region types. 5. Click Update Area to save your changes. 4.7 Region Typing Regions in System Manager are inherited in a parent-child fashion. If the region type at a Building Level is labeled as “Inherited,” it will by default inherit the region type of the campus. The region types of a floor will, by default, inherit the region type of a building and so on, through the Area and Room levels. If a floor is comprised of a majority of one type of room, assign that region type to the floor. All rooms will then inherit that region type. A user can then select the rooms that are not of that region type and edit their region types.
21 System Manager User Guide | System Manager 2.0 For example, if a floor is mainly comprised of patient rooms, select the floor and assign its Region Type to Patient Room. Then begin selecting other areas like hallways and restrooms and start assigning their appropriate Region Type. In doing this, the user will not have to select any of the patient rooms to change their Region Type. At the time of release of this document, the approved Region Types are as listed in the following table. Region Type Definition Biomed / Clinical Engineering The office/shop space that is used by Biomed/Clinical Engineering works. Central Supply / Materials Management The office/department space that is used to receive, store, and distribute medical and surgical supplies and equipment. Clean Utility Room A utility room where clean, ready-to-use equipment and supplies are stored. Dirty Utility Room A utility room where trash, dirty items, or dirty supplies are stored.

1 Vaccines for Children | Installation and Setup Guide 1 Introduction Awarepoint’s Temperature tags combined with the Awarepoint software provide an ideal solution for the monitoring of vaccines for children (VFC) in controlled environments. The Awarepoint tags provide continual monitoring of environmental assets, alerting users when temperatures fall out of range. This document provides information for installing VFC Tag assemblies at facilities and the setup procedures to enable alerts.
2 Vaccines for Children | Installation and Setup Guide 2 VFC Hardware The Awarepoint VFC hardware is comprised of three different pieces: • Awarepoint Environmental Tag • VFC Probe • VFC Display 2.1 Awarepoint Environmental Tag The Awarepoint Environmental Tags are used to measure and monitor the temperature in hospital refrigerators, freezers and warmers. Precise temperature monitoring is vital to ensure patient safety, as well as to remain compliant with medication management standards and reduce potentially costly product loss. 2.2 VFC Probe The VFC probe differs slightly from the standard Awarepoint temperature probe in the following ways: • The VFC probe cable is 8 feet long. • The sensor on the VFC probe is a real-time protocol (RTP) sensor that meets accuracy and range requirements. Installation of the VFC probe follows the same procedure as described above. In addition to the differences from other Awarepoint temperature probes, the VFC probe also has the following requirements: • Has a temperature range of -55°C to 125°C • Accuracy requirements: o -55°C to +50°C: ± 0.25° o +50°C to +100°C: ± 0.5° o +100°C to +125°C: ± 0.625° • Probe must be completely immersed in 30-60 mL of glycol • The probe end shall be .187" diameter and 3" long
3 Vaccines for Children | Installation and Setup Guide • Probe end shall be medical grade stainless steel and must be completely sealed or potted • The probe connector shall match the current environmental tag connector and be backwards compatible 2.3 VFC Display The VFC display is connected to the temperature tag and attached to the outside of the temperature-controlled unit for easy viewing. The following figure provides a conceptual view of the display. Figure 1 VFC Display Unit The display has the following requirements: • Powered by a single 9-volt battery with a minimum 2-year battery life • 2.7-inch e-ink display with 26x176 resolution • Displays the tag’s last temperature sample taken • The device displays the following: o Current temperature (last sample received) o Minimum and maximum temperature since last device reset o Battery health/low battery indicator
4 Vaccines for Children | Installation and Setup Guide o “Alarm” indicator when alarm is active o Displays current minimum and maximum temperature settings from a button press • Two buttons on right side of display: o Reset button o Mode button • When powered on, delays any audible alarms for 1 hour. This allows for time needed to set up and pair the device with a tag, as well as the time needed for setting the minimum and maximum temperature settings. 2.3.1 Reset Button The Reset button operates in the following manner: • When pressed for less than .25 seconds, shuts off the alarm and resets the max/min temperature. • When pressed for 3 seconds, temporarily displays the current set points (max and min allowed temperatures); set points display for 5 seconds. 2.3.2 Mode Button The Mode button operates in the following manner: • When the display is off, press for 8 seconds to power on the display. • When the display is on, press for 6 seconds to power off the display. • With the display on, when pressed for 1 second, toggles the temperature readings on the display between degrees F and degrees C. o Default reading is degrees F 2.3.3 VFC Display Additional Features The following list identifies additional features and requirements of the VFC display: • The VFC display device contains a speaker capable of generating audible alarms. o The audible alarm level can be set via a config message.
5 Vaccines for Children | Installation and Setup Guide o The default audible alarm level is High. • The VFC display device receives temperature samples from its paired tag via Bluetooth low energy (BLE) • The VFC display device also supports WiFi for configuration and firmware downloading, as well as changing alarm set points, enabling/disabling the audible alarm, setting the audible alarm level, and pairing with tags.
6 Vaccines for Children | Installation and Setup Guide 3 VFC Software The Awarepoint VFC system is set up and run through the following software applications: • System Manager – for initial setup • Infopoint – for creating alerts for non-BLE tags • awareHealth – for creating alerts for BLE tags 3.1 System Manager When a tag is brought onsite, System Manager is used to make the Awarepoint solution aware of the tag, create the configuration necessary for the tag to report and respond as a VFC tag, and set up the tag’s network connectivity. 3.2 Infopoint For non-BLE tags, Infopoint is the client interface application to the Awarepoint Appliance. With Infopoint clients can search for, locate, and track tagged assets on the Awarepoint network. Clients can also view asset usability statistics, create alerts for tagged items, and view temperature and humidity data for temperature Tags. 3.3 awareHealth awareHealth is the client interface application to the Awarepoint Appliance. With awareHealth clients can search for, locate, and track tagged assets on the Awarepoint network. Clients can also view asset usability statistics, create alerts for tagged items, and view temperature and humidity data for temperature Tags.
7 Vaccines for Children | Installation and Setup Guide 4 VFC Setup Procedures Setting up the VFC tag and display unit is a multi-step process. In general, the procedures are: 1. In System Manager, batch create the Environmental Tag and VFC display units. This step also includes checking the tag and display configuration parameters. 2. In System Manager, pair the tag and display. 3. Power on and provision the tag. The tag must be powered on first, begin communicating with Infopoint, then the display can be powered on. 4. Power on and provision the display. This should be done within 5 minutes of powering on and provisioning the tag. 5. In System Manager, place the tag and display on a map. 6. In Infopoint (or awareHealth), associate the tag with an asset. 7. In Infopoint (or awareHealth), set an alert for when the temperature-controlled unit goes out of range. 4.1 Batch Creating Devices The following procedure is done while in System Manager. 1. From the Devices tab drop-down, select Create. The Batch Create screen displays.

Remove the top casing by squeezing the label sides of the tag and pulling up. 2. Pull off the casing, being careful not to pry it up from the non-sensor end.
11 Vaccines for Children | Installation and Setup Guide 3. Insert the three AAA batteries. 4. Insert the probe cable into the slot in the Tag next to the batteries. When you plug the probe cable in, the LED in the upper right will light up. The color of the LED will indicate the tag status.
12 Vaccines for Children | Installation and Setup Guide o Red – The tag and probe are not communicating. Unplug the probe cable and reattach. If the red LED still shows, RMA the tag. o Green – LF message received and probe and tag are communicating. o Red/Green Consecutively Multiple Times – The probe and cable are not communicating because of a bad probe. Unplug the probe cable and reattach. If you still receive the red/green LED, RMA the probe. o 3 x Green = Good Tag/probe (only when battery or probe replaced) 5. Curl the cord through the loop of the Tag. 6. Close the casing. 4.3.2 Provisioning the Environmental Tag After a device (tag, display, or beacon) has been batch created, it must be provisioned so that it can connect to the network and provide location information for tags. Use the following procedure to provision a device. NOTE: Before beginning this procedure, an Awarepoint router must be connected and running close to the tablet running the provisioning application. Without this router, the SSID for the site will not be available to the app and the provisioning procedure will fail. 1. Open the Provisioning app on the Awarepoint tablet. Figure 2 Provisioning Application Main Screen The following areas should be noted as identified in the figure above: 1) Application version 2) The Environment URL drop-down list 3) The REQUEST TOKEN button 4) The SYNC WITH SITES FROM IP button

Enter the username and password for connection to the Awarepoint web services. 3. From the Environment URL drop-down list, select the environment you are going to request the token from. NOTE: There are four main environments to select from. Each environment has different sites associated with it, so be careful to choose the correct environment. 4. Press the Request Token button. If the username and password were correct, a success message displays. If you do not see a success message, re-enter the username and password and verify the Environment URL. If you still do not see a request message, contact the account manager to verify the credentials or to see if there is an outage. 5. Press the SYNC WITH SITES FROM IP button. Pushing this button pulls a list of all sites associated with the selected Environment URL. 6. From the Select Site drop-down, select the site to synchronize with.
14 Vaccines for Children | Installation and Setup Guide Figure 3 Sample Site List Once you select a site, the SYNC WITH SITES FROM IP button changes to SYNC WITH SITE. 7. Push the SYNC WITH SITE button. This option requires an Internet connection. You must wait until this step completes without any error before proceeding to the next step. If an error occurs, attempt to SYNC WITH SITE again. If this step does not complete due to an error, the data will not be available for provisioning devices. 8. After successful synchronizing with the site is complete, change the Wi-Fi Network to the SSID named AWP_PROVISION_SERVER.
15 Vaccines for Children | Installation and Setup Guide This is the SSID in the Awarepoint router. The router must be preconfigured with the specific security options and the correct SSID name. 9. Slide the INITIATE PROVISIONING slider to the ON position. Figure 4 INITIATE PROVISIONING in OFF Position Figure 5 INITIATE PROVISIONING in ON Position Initiating provisioning does two things: o Creates a Network Service Discovery that allows the tablet to start listening for devices in the same network
16 Vaccines for Children | Installation and Setup Guide o Creates an SSL Server socket site in order to start communication with the devices 10. Power cycle the device by pulling the battery out and replacing. NOTE: If the DEVICES TO PROVISION section is empty (clear list), the tablet will try to provision every Awarepoint device. If the list is not empty and you have entered specific device PIDs, the tablet will detect the devices (will appear in DISCOVERED AWP DEVICES section) but will just provision the devices in the list. Other devices will be ignored. 11. From the Environment URL drop-down, select the Awarepoint environment you want to pull network data from. 12. Enter the username and password in the appropriate fields. These are the credentials to have access to execute the REST Web services to pull configuration data. This is an Oauth2 security type.
17 Vaccines for Children | Installation and Setup Guide 13. Press the Request Token button. If the connection is successful, a Permission Granted message displays. If you receive a Permission Denied message, check the Environment URL, username, and password, and retry. If you are still denied, contact the account manager. 14.

23 Vaccines for Children | Installation and Setup Guide NOTE: The hole should only be large enough to fit the probe snugly so that it maintains a good seal. 3. Screw the cap assembly onto the glass vial securely. 4. Insert the slim metal tube part of the probe cable assembly into the vial. 4.3.3.3 Physical Installation of Environmental Tags Environmental Tags are installed on the outside of the asset to be monitored, and the probe/vial assembly is installed inside the asset. For the most accurate readings, the probe/vial assembly should be placed near where vaccines are being stored. This should be in the main body of the temperature-controlled asset away from the walls, the ceiling, cooling vents or fans, doors and the back of the unit.
24 Vaccines for Children | Installation and Setup Guide Figure 7 Example Probe Storage Placement If a pre-drilled hole through the wall of the asset is available, or a manufacturer’s access point in the back of the asset, use this existing access point to thread the probe wire into the asset. If a pre-drilled hole is not available, discuss the possibility of having the Client’s engineering team drill a hole in the back of the unit for this purpose. If you are unable to install the probe through the back of the asset or through a hole, you may thread the wire through the door with written customer documentation to support the decision to go through the door. If existing temperature monitoring devices are in place, attempt to install the Awarepoint temperature vial as close to these as possible. If no temperature-monitoring device exists, install the vial as far back from the front door of the unit as possible to reduce fluctuations in readings caused by opening the asset door. To install the Environmental Tag: 1. Ensure that the TAG MAC is visible and place the Tag on the outside of the temperature asset using 2 pieces of VHB tape affixed to the back of the unit.
25 Vaccines for Children | Installation and Setup Guide Press the Tag firmly against the asset for approximately 30 seconds to ensure bonding. 2. Feed the probe through any service port on top, back, or side of device. If a service port or other opening isn’t available, it is recommended that a hole be drilled so the cord may pass through and the hole sealed after tag installation. This is not always possible. 3. Using a zip tie and anchor, make a service loop of any excess cord in order to relieve tension if it is pulled. For best results, two loops should be placed on the device, one outside and one inside. A bow shape achieves the best results. The Tag must be placed on the outside of the asset with the bar code facing forward or up for easy reading/scanning. 4.3.4 Tag Configuration and Map Placement VFC Tag and Display devices must have the proper configurations to ensure efficiency. Additionally, for non-BLE deployments, Tags and Displays must be placed on a facility map manually. These procedures are performed in System Manager. 4.3.4.1 Tag Configuration Settings 1.
