Purpose

This article walks through how to self-provision and relocate beacons in the 365Ops app.

Future Release Notice

Overview

365Ops is a mobile application that allows operators to self-provision beacons as devices. Operators will be able to add new beacons to an existing or new location and relocate previously provisioned beacons. Self-provisioning beacons simplify the process, allowing operators to bulk order beacons and add them to locations as they wish.

Operators are able to provision beacons to an existing location, or they can create a new location to add the beacons to. This is only applicable to new beacons. See the 365Beacon - Operator Guide [Future Release] for information on how to determine whether a beacon is legacy or new.

NOTE

Beacons will show up as devices in the Device tab in the Location Summary within ADM. This means each beacon will have a unique Beacon ID and will no longer just be attached to a location. For more information on how beacons display in ADM's Device Summary, see the 365Beacon - Operator Guide [Future Release].

Prior to setup, be sure to have set up the banking information in ADM. These steps can be viewed in the article: 365Pay - Setup Banking Information in ADM.
