Beacons
The beacon option, commonly used for indoor positioning, is available in certain countries only.
The Beacons screen presents all beacon-enabled EC-Multi-Sensor-BLE devices declared for your
ECLYPSE controller. It is displayed within the BLE Room Devices tab as soon as you have defined
one or more EC-Multi-Sensor-BLE devices via EC-
gfx
Program, even if they are not physically con-
nected to the controller. This allows you to edit your beacon configuration offline, before applying it to
the actual physical devices.

Description
Edit the beacon options.
Select one Beacon at a time and click the edit icon
to change the Beacon options.
Use the Enable Selected Devices button
and the Disable Selected Devices button
to quickly
enable or disable the beacon functionality independently from the my PERSONIFY interface function.
Room Name
This is a descriptive label of the room or location where the device is located. The value of this field is the
same as the one entered in the Room Name field of the BLE Room Devices screen. If you change it in the
BLE Room Devices screen and click Apply, it will change automatically here too. If you change it in the
Beacons screen, the change will be automatically applied to the BLE Room Devices screen.
UUID
The universally unique identifier (UUID) is a 128-bit number meant to uniquely identify your beacons’
network. A company should typically have its own UUID, which should be used all over its buildings (see
the example below). A UUID is composed of 32 hexadecimal digits split into 5 groups separated by
hyphens. The factory default value can be modified via the Edit Beacons screen.
Major Number
This indicates the Major value, which is intended to identify a group of beacons of your EC-Multi-Sensor-
BLE, e.g. all the beacons located in a given zone. Each building should typically have its own Major value
(see the example below). The factory default value is based on the MAC address of your BLE device. For
example, if the MAC is F3B3701CECAE55AA, the Major will be 701C (hexadecimal) / 28700 (decimal).
The factory default value can be modified via the Edit Beacons screen.
Minor Number
This indicates the Minor value, which represents each beacon’s individual identifier. The factory default
value is based on the MAC address of your BLE device. For example, if the MAC is
F3B3701CECAE55AA, the Minor Number will be F3B3 (hexadecimal) / 62387 (decimal). The factory
default value can be modified via the Edit Beacons screen.
Enabled
This indicates whether the beacon has been enabled, i.e. whether the beacon function is active for the
device. To enable it, use the Enable toggle in the Edit Beacons screen.
Reset
Click Reset to reset the devices to their default values.
For the devices that are both declared in EC-
gfx
Program and physically connected to the ECLYPSE
controller, the Reset button resets the Room Name, UUID, Major Number, and Minor Number fields.
For the devices that are only declared in EC-
gfx
Program but not physically connected to the ECLYPSE
controller, the Reset button only resets the Room Name field.
The Reset button does not reset the Enabled field.
