SCA 1 1 Introduction- Tork EasyCube™ Tork EasyCube™ delivers actionable washroom insights through a web user interface. The service consists of Tork dispensers equipped with sensors that communicate the dispenser status and refill needs to a cloud based system, made available for different roles such as a facility manager or the cleaning staff. The system as well includes visitor registration units that can count people passing into a washroom area. Figure 1. Each dispenser is wirelessly connected to an information system that can be utilized by both a Facility Manager as well as cleaning staff, in order to facilitate more efficient work planning.
SCA 2 2 Get an instant overview At any point in time the system will provide a quick overview of the status of the installed dispensers through a web based dashboard. Instantly the user of the web application, for example a facility manager, will be able to spot if dispensers are about to become empty. Figure 2. Status red indicates very soon out-of-paper and Yellow indicates a half-full dispenser. Status green needs no attention. Add a dashboard measurement of a critical location to track its usage. 2.1 Before you get started To be able to get started with the Tork EasyCube System there are some activities that need to be performed. Initially the customer together with SCA will determine which washrooms will be included and the required number of Data Collection Units (DCUs) to support these locations. The number of DCUs required for a location depends upon the distribution of washrooms within the building and also the construction material of the building walls. Installation of the system is done by an external professional installation company.
SCA 3 3 Technical components used in Tork EasyCube Figure 3 - The different components used for the Tork EasyCube solution 3.1 Sensors A selected range of Tork dispensers is prepared to be equipped with sensor technologies to optimize the function, depending on the field of use. There are three different sensor technologies used within Tork EasyCube:  SCU (Sensor Communication Unit) which is used to measure refill levels in Tork dispensers  Dispensers with embedded sensors. The dispenser contains a sensor from factory. All sensors communicate to the Data Collection Unit via the radio frequency 2.4GHz. 3.2 SCU (Sensor Communication Unit) The SCU unit is added to a special slot within the dispensers. The refill levels reported by the SCU are visualized in the Tork EasyCube system by using colors.  Green: indicates that the dispenser still have enough paper or soap remaining.  Orange: indicates that it is possible to refill the dispenser.  Red: indicates that the dispenser is almost empty. 1 Each sensor is operated by an embedded battery.

SCA 4 . 3.3 Dispensers with embedded sensors Tork dispensers such as Tork Foam Soap Dispenser with Intuition sensor™ do not need an additional Tork EasyCube sensor. Instead, they have an additional radio component within the cassette which forwards information to the DCU via 2.4 GHz radio. The system runs on the same battery as the dispenser, no additional battery is needed. 3.4 Visitor Registration Unit (VRU) The VRU counts the number of people going in and out of a room. The number of visitors can be used as a guideline for when washrooms need to be cleaned. The sensor has a flexible measurement direction, just open the two end pieces and rotate the center unit 90° to change direction. Place one sender and one receiver at the door frame to the entry of the room. The sensor has a range of up to 1.7 meters / 5.5 feet. A configurable response time makes the sensor useful in many different environments and applications. Each sensor is operated by an embedded battery that will last for 5 years. 3.5 Data Collection Unit (DCU) The Data Collection Unit, DCU, collects the data from the sensors (SCUs and VRUs) and sends information to the Tork EasyCube system. The DCU acts as a communication gateway for all the sensors that have been paired with it. The unit collects and processes incoming sensor data. The DCU has a DC adapter and it has battery backup to ensure performance during power failure. The DCU has a built-in GSM/GPRS modem used to connect to Internet. No access to local physical networks is needed. Communication between sensors and the DCU is based on SCA proprietary protocol. 3.6 Several DCUs In order to cover larger areas, several DCUs may be needed. As each DCU has communication capabilities with the back end server, they can be installed over a large area with no requirements of in-between communication.

SCA 5 4 Wireless Communication There are different sensors in the Tork EasyCube system, but they all communicate in the same manner. Figure 8 - Communication overivew The sensors send data to the DCU with a default defined time interval. The DCU is configured for Tork dispensers with defined status levels, e.g. Almost Empty, Time for Refill and Full . If a change in status occurs, the DCU forwards the information to the back-end server. It is in the back-end where all data is processed and aggregated to useful information. The customer is provided access to the Tork EasyCube web application for management and analysis of collected information. All configurations and settings to the system are done during installation.
