INSTALL LOCATION BEACONS

Before selecting mounting locations for Location Beacons, consider our recommendations below for Location Beacon installation.

INSTALLATION

TRANSMIT POWER SETTINGS

Transmit power level affects the range of Location Beacon’s signals. Beacons are shipped in the lowest transmit power setting level 
(Level 2), providing about 15 to 30 feet of coverage. This level is appropriate for most installations. 

To physically install Location Beacon:

1. 

Remove the mounting bracket from 

Location Beacon by pressing upward

2. 

Place the mounting bracket in the 

desired mounting location with the 
arrow on the inside of the bracket 
pointing upward. Mark the position of 
two of the mounting holes. 

3. 

Prepare the mounting surface with 

pilot holes and the installation of 
drywall anchors as appropriate.

DURING INSTALLATION

It is important to record Location 
Beacon information as you install 
them in your facility for reference 
when placing beacons in Blackline 
Live. You will want to keep track of  
each beacon’s:
