Installation

  • Removing your Nobi

    How do we proceed to disassemble a lamp and why?

    There are two reasons why we would disassemble a lamp:
    1. We are going to hang the lamp in a different location.
    2. The lamp is defective ( Go to step 2)

     

    1. We are going to hang the lamp in a different location.

    When we move a lamp to another room or site, we first reset it to its factory settings.

    We do this to ensure a smooth onboarding at the new location.

    To reset a lamp, we proceed as follows:

    We log in via the app on the mobile device.

    Scherm­afbeelding 2023-10-17 om 10.33.41.png

    We go to the housing unit where the lamp is located.

    Scherm­afbeelding 2023-10-17 om 10.31.53.png

    We press edit and then arrive at the screen with the general information of the room.

    Scherm­afbeelding 2023-10-17 om 09.54.11.png

    Here we go to rooms and select the three dots at the bottom of the room where the lamp hangs.Scherm­afbeelding 2023-10-17 om 09.55.11.png

    Here we go to rooms and select the three dots at the bottom of the room where the lamp hangs.

    We choose edit device.

    Scherm­afbeelding 2023-10-17 om 09.55.29.png

    Then we choose Factory reset.

    The app will now look for the device and you will see the six letter code

    Scherm­afbeelding 2023-10-17 om 09.56.33.png

    After you have received the code you select it and press link at the bottom right

    You will receive the message that after approximately 1 minute the lamp will light blue again.
    When this is the case and the lamp flashes blue again, we are ready to disassemble the lamp.

     

     

    2. Dismantling the Nobi lamp

    We need the following tools for disassembly:
    - A small flat-head screwdriver
    - A 2mm Allen key


    We proceed as follows:
    We first turn off the fuse for the lighting.
    Then we will use the flat screwdriver to disconnect the plug in the lamp.

    IMG_2450_2.jpg

    We place the screwdriver as shown in the photo in the provided opening and press it out.
    Now we can pull the plug from the socket and the lamp is disconnected.

     


    We then have to disconnect the three steel cables from the lamp.
    We do this by holding the lamp and pressing down the opening where the steel cable goes.

    IMG_2451.jpg
    You can now lower the lamp and the cable will come loose.
    You do this for the three cables.
    The lamp is now completely loose and can be stored.

     

    For the last part we need the 2mm Allen key.

    The four black screws on the side of the power supply are loosened. The cover will now come off.

    Unscrew.jpg

    Now it is just a matter of loosening the 3 wires by pushing on the tabs so that you can pull out the wires. This applies to both the wires of the lamp and the wires coming from the ceiling.
    Finally, you just need to unscrew the mounting plate.

    Now you are ready to move the lamp to another location

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

  • How can you connect the lamps to a different WIFI network?

     

    Determine at which level you wish to configure the WIFI details. This can be done at the department level or at the housing unit level.

    1. Enter the new WIFI details for the department:
      • Go to the left navigation bar and click on 'departments'.
      • Select the relevant department and click on 'modify' at the end.
      • Under basic details, update the WIFI details and click 'save'.
    2. Enter the new WIFI details for the housing unit: 
      • Go to the left navigation bar and click on housing units
      • Select the relevant housing unit and click on 'modify' at the end.
      • Under basic details, update the WIFI details and click 'save'.
    3.  Take a smartphone with the 'Nobi' app to each lamp
      • Open the app on your smartphone - click on housing units  - for each housing unit click on 'modify' at the end.
      • Select 'rooms' at the top.
      • Click on the three dots next to 'bedroom' for example
      • Click on the last option, 'adopt network configuration'."
      • Now thislamp  is connected to the new network.
      • Repeat this for each lamp  
  • How to factory reset a lamp?

    To install a lamp in a different housing unit, you need to do the following:

    • Archive the current resident.
    • Go to the living unit - click on "Edit" next to the relevant housing unit - select rooms - click on the three dots next to the respective room - choose "Device settings" and click on "Factory reset."
    • You should use your phone for the factory reset as the lamp needs to disconnect via Bluetooth.

  • Onboarding your new Nobi lamp in an organization

    Scherm_afbeelding_2023-02-28_om_13.16.34.png

     

    Congratulations on the delivery of your

    Nobi Partnership.

    The purpose of this kit is to enable you to experience first hand how powerful the Nobi solution is and be able to demonstrate Nobi in a convincing way to your potential customers.

    It is vital that you fully understand the purpose and functions of the Nobi solution before showing it to potential customers. Getting to know Nobi needs a team of 2 people where one person acts as the Nobi user and the other person as care staff.

    In addition to this document, online courses are available at

    nobi.life/training.

     

    This box includes:

    x 1 functional Nobi Lamp

    x 1 Nobi ceiling mount kit

    x 1 functional Nobi wall switch to switch the LED lighting of Nobi on and off.

    x Wall plugs to mount Nobi and Nobita (6) x Screws to mount Nobi and Nobita (6)
    x Allen wrench
    x Hexagonal bolds (4)

     

    Installation Process

    The mounting of Nobi should take no longer than 10 minutes
    The mounting of the Nobi wall switch takes no longer than 5 minutes
    The onboarding process including connecting any accessories (like blood pressure meters or scales) should take no longer than 2 minutes

    Nobi mounting

     

    Scherm_afbeelding_2023-02-28_om_13.22.30.png

     

    1

    Take Nobi out of the box and place it on a flat surface.

    2

    Take the ceiling mounting plate out of
    the box together with 2 screws and 2 plugs.

    3

    Remove the existing light (if there is one) form the ceiling exposing 3 electrical wires (Earth, Neutral and Switched Line). Make sure you know what wire is what. Usually Neutral is blue and Earth is green/yellow. These colours might differ depending on the country or local electrical installation requirements and habits. Don’t use the black wire.

    The Switched Line will normally be bridged by a bluetooth component behind the wall switch. Only in the DEMO environment it is
    important to keep the lamp on constant

    power by keeping the light switch ON.

    4

    Hold the base plate against the ceiling and mark the 2 holes where the screws need to go.

    5

    Drill the holes to appropriate depth using a 6 mm drill.

    6

    Put the plugs in the holes, hold the baseplate on the ceiling and run the electrical wires throught the hole.

    7

    Place and tighten the screws making sure the baseplate is firmly fixed to the ceiling.

     

    Scherm_afbeelding_2023-02-28_om_13.25.22.png

     

    8

    Connect the 3 electrical wires to the connector in the Nobi mounting base.

    9

    Gently push the mounting base on the baseplate and align the 4 holes where the hexagonal screws need to come.

    10

    Put in the 4 screws and tighten them with the provided Allen wrench.

    11

    At this moment you have 3 steel cables and 1 power cable hanging down from the Nobi mounting base.

     

    Scherm_afbeelding_2023-02-28_om_13.27.19.png

     

    12

    Next, hold Nobi and slide the 3 steel wires in the provided holes. You can slide in as much cable as necessary to put Nobi on the desired height.

    13

    By sliding the cables, make sure that Nobi hangs horizontally on the ceiling (the use of a spirit level is recommended at this stage).

    14

    You are now ready to switch the electricity back on.

    15

    Nobi should boot (the LED bottom rings blinks blue indicating that Nobi is ready for onboarding).

    6. We now go back to the initial screen to create a Housing Unit.

    6_Housing_units_begin_met_pijl.png

    Tap the plus sign in the top right corner.
    Now enter the name of the housing unit.
    Then choose a department to which this housing unit belongs.

    If the WiFi for the residential units is the same as that of the department, leave the WiFi data field empty.

    Press the save button and you will now see that your first housing unit has been created.

    housing_unit_split_screen.png

    Now that the housing unit has been created, we can add a lamp.

    Press the "edit" button.
    Then press rooms.
    Now you enter the screen where you can add a room.

    overzicht_lamp_toevoegen.png

    Then choose which type of room the lamp hangs in. In this case, the lamp hangs in a bedroom.
    then press the "link the lamp" button.
    (make sure your bluetooth is turned on and has access to the app).

    Press the "start link " button.
    You will then get a list of lamps that are within range.
    This consists of 6 letters.
    If more than 1 lamp is within range, you will see that the strength of the signal is stated behind the Nobi name.
    Here you choose the lamp with the best reception. (For android this is a signal strength symbol, for IOS this is a negative number expressed in db. Here you take the Nobi with the number as close as possible to 0)
    You will now see that the various steps are followed to set up the connection with WiFi and the Nobi cloud.
    When this has been successful, the lamp will say that the connection has been successfully established.

    lamp_toevoegen_part_2.png

    You will now see that a room has been added to the housing unit.
    You can now repeat this if you need to add more lamps.

    21_lamp_toevoegen_gelukt.png

     

    7.We proceed in the same way for the peripherals.
    We now give the example of a switch.
    In the peripherals window, press "add".
    You will now see a list of all supported peripherals.
    Select the device you want to add here.
    Then you will be asked to choose the room. The chosen lamp will now switch on and off briefly to confirm your choice. Press "next" to start.randapp_deel_1.png

     

    You will now be prompted to press the switch.
    When you have pressed the button you will enter the next screen where you can choose between "switch" or "panic button".
    In this case we choose switch and press "next".
    The next choice is what kind of switch. Here we choose push button (included in the demo kit).
    And then press "next".

    randapp_deel_2.png

    You will now see that the switch has been added successfully.

    28_randapparatuur_gelukt.png

    Types of switches

    Switches remains in the position that they are set by a human action. There are 2 important types of switches:

    1. 3-way switches: switches with 3 connections, and a connection is made between always 2 of them (1 fixed, toggle between the 2 other contacts)

    2. 4-way switches: switches with 4 connections, and the connections are toggling between the horizontal position, and the crossed position (see figures at the left side)

    Scherm_afbeelding_2023-02-28_om_14.02.41.png

    Push buttons

    Push buttons are only changing position when someone is pushing on the button. Without action they remain in their default status. A push button exists in 2 different versions, depending in the default status:

    1. Normal Open (NO) push buttons: the default status is that the contact is open. When pushed, the contact will close.

    2. Normal Closed (NC) push buttons: the default status is that the contact is closed. When pushed, the contact will open.

    Scherm_afbeelding_2023-02-28_om_14.03.37.png

    Wireless
    switching interface

    The Bluetooth button interface should never be connected to the mains, or any other AC or DC power supply. The connections to the Bluetooth button interface should always be potential free.

    Scherm_afbeelding_2023-02-28_om_14.04.51.png

    Wired
    switching interface

    The Shelly module can be used as interface to switch the Nobi light on or off. The diagram shows how to cable the shelly module.
    Both a 3-way switch or a push button can be used.

    Scherm_afbeelding_2023-02-28_om_14.05.50.png

     

    Wired switching interface as relais

    The Shelly module can be used as a relais to switch on and off additional lights in the room, together with the nobi light. In this case, the input of the Shelly module can not be used.

    Scherm_afbeelding_2023-02-28_om_14.06.45.png

     

    8. All that remains to be done is to create a resident.

    10_Resident_hoofdscherm_met_pijl.png

    Press the "plus sign" at the top right.
    Fill in the details of the resident now and choose the right housing unit.
    After you press "save" you get the screen where you can set the privacy settings. "Timeline enabled" and "Show abstract view". is the most commonly used setting here. Keep in mind that the resident must give permission for this.

    bewoner_split.png

    If you now go back to the dashboard, you will see that the resident has been added.

    14_Resident_aangemaakt.png

     

    9. The only thing that still needs to be done before you can use the lamp and test it, is to complete your data.
    In the home screen go to "Users".
    Press "Edit" on your user.
    In the next screen you will see that the Mobile Phone field is still empty at the bottom.
    Enter your number and press "Save".
    This is now the first number that will be called in case of an escalation.gegevens_aanpassen_.png

    Your lamp is now still in learning mode.
    This means that the lamp still needs some time to learn the environment. This takes about 1 to 2 weeks.
    After this period, you may contact support to disable learning mode. This can be done simply by pressing the question mark and do not forget to indicate which lamp it concerns in which site.

    You are now ready to use and test your Nobi lamp.
