Configuring Door Tablet's External LED System

00:00:06.466 --> 00:00:07.814
In this video...

00:00:07.815 --> 00:00:11.736
We will look at the components of the Door Tablet External LED System

00:00:11.736 --> 00:00:14.710
We will show where to install the necessary software

00:00:14.711 --> 00:00:18.211
We will look at the required settings configurations

00:00:18.211 --> 00:00:21.015
Finally, we will test the LED functionality

00:00:23.133 --> 00:00:25.433
The Door Tablet External LED System

00:00:25.434 --> 00:00:29.580
allows you to add visual status indicators to your meeting rooms and spaces

00:00:29.580 --> 00:00:34.001
The electronics may be connected to LED strips or LED walls

00:00:34.001 --> 00:00:35.905
These can be mounted outside rooms

00:00:35.906 --> 00:00:39.599
to provide real-time information about room status, or occupancy

00:00:40.183 --> 00:00:44.394
These LED systems provide a clear visual indicator of room status

00:00:44.395 --> 00:00:48.183
whether a space is occupied, available, or simply active

00:00:48.183 --> 00:00:50.866
making it easy for everyone to see at a glance

00:00:51.533 --> 00:00:53.515
Before we look at the configuration steps

00:00:53.515 --> 00:00:56.667
there are some key technical specifications to be aware of

00:00:56.667 --> 00:01:03.164
Supports LEDs with up to 1536 RGBW LEDs

00:01:03.164 --> 00:01:05.805
Compatible with a range of LED drivers

00:01:05.806 --> 00:01:08.665
Requires both signal and power connections

00:01:08.665 --> 00:01:12.065
Uses the Door Tablet device hub with network connectivity

00:01:14.183 --> 00:01:16.735
Now, let’s begin the process

00:01:16.736 --> 00:01:19.583
Navigate to door-tablet.com

00:01:19.583 --> 00:01:22.633
Log into your account and go to the Downloads section

00:01:27.283 --> 00:01:31.049
Then, download the device hub configuration package for Windows

00:01:33.300 --> 00:01:36.795
Now, install both installers included in the package

00:01:36.795 --> 00:01:41.199
Go ahead and launch the viewer application – it will allow you to configure the hub

00:01:44.800 --> 00:01:50.350
Next, connect the USB-C cable from your PC to the device hub electronics

00:01:55.366 --> 00:01:57.349
In the viewer, click "Connect"

00:02:01.266 --> 00:02:03.366
and ensure localhost is selected

00:02:04.183 --> 00:02:06.199
Navigate to the 'Master Brick' tab

00:02:07.850 --> 00:02:12.066
Ensure that the IP address is static IP rather than DHCP

00:02:12.800 --> 00:02:15.616
Select an appropriate static IP address for your network

00:02:16.066 --> 00:02:18.849
Save the Ethernet configuration and click 'Reset'

00:02:21.516 --> 00:02:25.516
Disconnect the USB-c cable and connect the network cable to the device hub

00:02:28.766 --> 00:02:32.299
Reconnect to the device using the new static IP address

00:02:32.783 --> 00:02:34.916
Do so by clicking on the 'Setup' tab

00:02:35.783 --> 00:02:39.783
and changing the host from localhost to the Static IP address you have just setup

00:02:40.800 --> 00:02:42.050
Now click 'Connect'

00:02:43.650 --> 00:02:47.516
In the viewer continue and navigate to the 'LED Strip Bricklet' tab

00:02:49.133 --> 00:02:53.016
Identify and note the LED strip's Unique ID (UID)

00:02:53.516 --> 00:02:57.216
Write the UID and IP address on the box for future reference

00:02:58.183 --> 00:02:59.899
Open the Door Tablet Web UI

00:03:03.233 --> 00:03:07.599
Select the room where you'll install the LED system, and pair it with this kit

00:03:10.933 --> 00:03:14.549
Navigate to the second tab that begins with Times and Display

00:03:15.650 --> 00:03:21.298
Then inside this tab scroll down to Sensors/External LED

00:03:21.298 --> 00:03:27.043
Enter the device hub IP address and LED UID, which you have noted before

00:03:27.044 --> 00:03:29.265
Submit the room record

00:03:29.266 --> 00:03:33.352
Launch the app in the browser and ensure that its running in HTTP mode

00:03:33.352 --> 00:03:35.838
and not HTTPS

00:03:35.839 --> 00:03:37.332
Login to the server

00:03:40.683 --> 00:03:45.966
when you see the room list, click on the button Local Settings

00:03:46.766 --> 00:03:49.699
Type the IP address and UID from earlier on

00:03:51.450 --> 00:03:54.731
Select the appropriate LED driver that matches your LEDs

00:03:54.731 --> 00:03:57.432
and the number of LEDs you wish to drive

00:03:58.733 --> 00:04:01.731
We can now use the app to test LED functionality

00:04:01.731 --> 00:04:05.176
and verify that the LED strip responds to colour changes

00:04:05.176 --> 00:04:08.565
Once you click on the test button the colours will alternate

00:04:08.565 --> 00:04:10.432
between all the colours we use in Door Tablet

00:04:11.066 --> 00:04:11.549
Green

00:04:11.550 --> 00:04:11.606
, Red, Amber, Blue, White and blank.
27.	Now we can see how the actual LEDs are changin colors
28.	Finally, disconnect temporary cables to prepare for the final installation. 
29.	The device is now ready for mounting in the intended location. 
30.	Thank you for watching

00:04:11.606 --> 00:04:11.915
Red

00:04:12.033 --> 00:04:12.633
Amber

00:04:12.716 --> 00:04:14.216
Blue, White and blank

00:04:19.216 --> 00:04:22.282
And now we can see how the actual LEDs are changing colours

00:04:28.166 --> 00:04:32.316
Finally, disconnect temporary cables to prepare for the final installation

00:04:32.933 --> 00:04:36.526
The device is now ready for mounting in the intended location

00:04:36.526 --> 00:04:40.532
Thank you for watching
