1 Introduction
By being attached to the asset and measuring environmental parameters such as temperature and shock events, the Sense
S and Sense T beacons make the management of assets and material flow transparent and traceable.
Tracking data and measured values are transferred to the Bosch IoT Cloud via Bosch Connect gateways or mobile
applications.
The Bosch Connected Industry Sense S and Sense T beacons are battery-operated devices for asset tracking, freight
tracking and other tracking or monitoring use cases.
Sense S and Sense T use a 2.4 GHz Low Energy radio and a RFID UHF interface to communicate with corresponding
receivers for data transmission and configuration.




Sense S and Sense T provide
 a unique visual ID (GIAI code) as DMC readable by standard scanner applications
 a unique electronic ID transmitted via 2.4 GHz wireless technology to be captured by Bosch Connect gateways or
    standard Android smartphone apps
 a temperature value for the ambient condition
 a shock intensity value measured by the integrated acceleration sensor (Sense S only)
 a battery assisted passive RFID interface to read the electronic ID

5 Mounting
In general the Sense S and Sense T devices can be mounted in any position as required. The attachment, depending on
the specific requirements, can be carried out with double-sided adhesive tape or an available mounting fixture.
In case of shock measurement a direct non-absorbing connection between the Sense S and the monitored asset is
required. To achieve this, we recommend using a mounting fixture or a fiber-reinforced adhesive tape.

Note: To enable wireless transmission, do not place the device inside metal enclosures or cover device with metal.



6 Operations
The 2.4 GHz wireless radio is a 802.15.1 compatible wireless communication interface. The device is transmitting information
packages in configurable constant intervals (e.g. every 15s) on frequencies 2.402 GHz, 2.426 GHz and 2.480 GHz.

The RFID UHF radio interface is a battery assisted passive wireless inferface operating at a global frequency range of
856 MHz to 960 MHz.
Supported region specific UHF communcation frequencies:
     865 MHz … 869 MHz (Europe)
     902 MHz … 928 MHz (US)
     952 MHz … 956 MHz (JPN)
An external reader device activates the RFID communication.
RFID communication can read and write information to the Sense S / Sense T.

Activation:
The Sense S and Sense T are delivered with activated measurement of environmental parameters and wireless
transmission. An activation or configuration is not required.

Operation
The Sense S and Sense T automatically measure the environmental parameters and transmit measured data together with
electronic device IDs via the integrated wireless 2.4GHz interface.
Within the Nexeed Track&Trace solution, the data is received and processed by Bosch Connect Gateways. The gateways
transfer the received data with additional gateway data to the Bosch IoT Cloud.

Temperature Measurement
Temperature values are captured by Sense T and Sense S every 5 minutes. The Sense T and S can provide an actual
temperature with a resolution of 0.5°C/digit to the Bosch IoT Cloud in case of a gateway in range during measurement.
Sense T also provides historical temperature measurements of 110 minutes in the past with a resolution of 1°C/digit.

Shock Measurement
The Sense S is able to detect and measure shock events. A shock measurement is triggered when an acceleration value of
more than 3g occurred at least in one axis.
A shock is characterized with two parameters:
    - Peak acceleration:          Three-dimensional peak acceleration value with a resolution of 0.5g
    - Shock intensity:            Digital integration of all acceleration samples > 3g during a shock event over time.
                                  Resolution is 25gms.
The Sense S is using a first-in-first-out (FIFO) structure to store and transmit shock events. The storage size is 7 events. If
the storage structure is completely filled with shock events, every new event will overwrite the oldest existing one. Shock
events older than 10 hours are deleted.
