PURPOSE //
Information on how to use CoWorkr’s WorkPoint Sensor
DEFINITIONS //
WorkPoint Sensor
CoWorkr “Workpoints” are battery-powered occupancy sensors that use passive
infrared sensors for detecting human activity. While WorkPoints are traditionally used
to provide high-res occupancy data on workstations, these devices may also be
used to monitor small meeting spaces where the number of occupants is not
needed.
•WorkPoints are always “on” meaning, if there’s a battery in the device, they’re
sending out data. All sensors will ship to installers with batteries installed.
•WorkPoints include a double-stick backing that allows for a simple installation.
•WorkPoints have a Label with an ID and barcode
WorkPoint Versions:
V4 - Version 4 (2019+) "Motion" WorkPoint Sensor that uses a digital passive
infrared sensing
DEVICE SETTINGS & CONFIGURATION //
CoWorkr WorkPoints do not have any configurable elements to the physical devices.
They simply carry out the instructions provided by the firmware. Otherwise, the
devices are able to turn on and off as well as send a notification.
Powering On/Off:
WorkPoints do not have an on/off switch. To power on a WorkPoint, simply insert the
battery. To power off, remove the battery.
Notifications:

3
To send a notifications packet from the WorkPoint, press the button using a pinhole
press tool. This will illuminate the LED and force the device to advertise a packet.
FIRMWARE AND FLASHING //
CoWorkr WorkPoints ship pre-flashed with the latest firmware. For updates to the
firmware, the device must be attached to an installer’s computer using a JTAG
connector, wherein the firmware revision can be flashed onto the device. Firmware
updates are not commonly done on production devices.
INSTALLATION //
Install Overview
Sensors are installed in locations specified by CoWorkr. Sensors have an ID that is
used to find where each device should be installed on a provided, pre-designed floor
plan that is issued by CoWorkr.
Use the (included) floor plans to locate each sensor. Sensors are typically ordered
numerically so the installer should be able to make a continuous path through the
floor plan while installing sensors in the order of the devices in the box.
Use the floor plans to plan how you will deploy yourself or your team to make the
best use of your time.
Desk and Room WorkPoint Sensors are installed based on the installation type (on
furniture or ceiling) that is shown on the floor plan. Desk WorkPoints are black and
have a smaller opening that helps narrow the field of view of the space. Room
WorkPoints (white) have a spherical field of view that maximizes the sensing area.

Desks and WorkStations
Furniture Type 1: Standard Workstation
Install Desk Sensor using the drawings to the right and checklist below as guidelines
for specific placement.
❏Center the sensor on the seated or standing position on the desk. This is
typically in the middle.
❏Position the sensor roughly ⅔back from the front edge of the table top.

5
❏Orient the Sensor so the arrow on the black case is facing the front edge of the
desk.
❏Wipe the surface free of any oils
❏Peel off the adhesive backing
❏Stick the sensor to the location and hold in place, applying pressure, for at
least 10 seconds.
Furniture Type 2: Offset Workstation
Install Desk Sensor using the drawings to the right and checklist below as guidelines
for specific placement.
❏Center the sensor on the seated or standing position on the desk. For offset
seat, center on where the chair most likely will be located.

6
❏Position the sensor roughly ⅔back from the front edge of the tabletop.
❏Orient the Sensor so the arrow on the black case is facing the front edge of the
desk.
❏Wipe the surface free of any oils
❏Peel off the adhesive backing
❏Stick the sensor to the location and hold in place, applying pressure, for at
least 10 seconds.
Furniture Type 3: Standard Meeting Table
Install Desk Sensor using the drawings to the right and checklist below as guidelines
for specific placement.

7
❏Center the sensor on the seated or standing position each location of the
table. This should be based on the number of chairs.
❏Position the sensor roughly ½ way between the front edge and the middle of
the table.
❏Orient the Sensor so the arrow on the black case is facing the front edge of the
desk.
❏Wipe the surface free of any oils
❏Peel off the adhesive backing
❏Stick the sensor to the location and hold it in place, applying pressure, for at
least 10 seconds.
Furniture Type 4: Banquets/Booths

8
Install Desk Sensor using the drawings to the right and checklist below as guidelines
for specific placement.
❏Center the sensor on the seated or standing position on the desk. For offset
seat, center on where the chair most likely will be located.
❏Position the sensor roughly ⅔back from the front edge of the table top.
❏Orient the Sensor so the arrow on the black case is facing the front edge of the
desk.
❏Wipe the surface free of any oils
❏Peel off the adhesive backing
❏Stick the sensor to the location and hold it in place, applying pressure, for at
least 10 seconds.

9
Rooms
Using a WorkPoint Sensor with a Room Case, install the device by sticking it to the
ceiling, facing downwards. Any movement in the entire room will trigger an
occupancy reading. If a room is longer than 10 ft (3m) we suggest using 2
WorkPoints.
Room Type 1: Standard Room with Gypsum, Metal, or Wood Ceiling

10
Install the Room Sensor using the drawings to the right and checklist below as
guidelines for specific placement.
❏Center the sensor on the space. The sensor location on the plan should
indicate if the sensor is centered on the room or above a specific area of the
room.
❏No Orientation of the Sensor is required (it’s spherical)
❏Wipe the surface free of any oils
❏Peel off the adhesive backing
❏Stick the sensor to the location and hold in place, applying pressure, for at
least 10 seconds.
