Each Kontakt.io device has a unique profile that includes its current status data and configured settings. Each Kontakt.io device model has a unique setting specification based on its features, function, and a device's current firmware version.
Unique to Infrastructure devices, shown in the below image, they are installed with the Kio Setup Manager mobile app and assigned to their install location with Kio Cloud Smart Location.
The following provides a high-level overview of what's available in a device profile by each tab.

Tab |
What's included... |
|---|---|
|
General |
The General tab includes information about the device's unique specifications, settings, and status information. The device's settings include its Device Name, which by default is set to the device's Kontakt.io Product Name, Tags that are a method to uniquely group or categorize devices, and the Deployment Status. The Notes field is for information purposes and the |

Sensors/IR Only applies to room sensors (Portal Beams) and reference beacons (Anchor Beacons, Dipenser Beacons) |
The Sensors/IR tab includes the configuration settings that are unique to a device's sensors and its Infrared (IR) technology capabilities. Kontakt.io devices may be equipped with various types of sensors, such as a temperature sensor that measures ambient air conditions, an accelerometer sensor that detects movement, to button sensors that trigger events when pressed. |
|
Occupancy Only applies to Portal Beams |
The Occupancy tab includes settings unique to a Portal Beam used for room and seat-level occupancy (static) and footfall traffic (counts people entering and exiting a space). ImportantUpdating the occupancy mode for a Portal Beam must be completed onsite with the Kio Setup Manager. The Occupancy Mode settings, with the exception of the Sampling Interval, are indented to provide details on the device's current configured mode. The Configuration Image is the last captured image taken during the installation of a Portal Beam with the Kio Setup Manager app. The image is intended to provide a reference during troubleshooting. |
|
Ble Connectivity |
The Ble connectivity tab includes a device's Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) settings. |
|
Power Saving Only applies to room sensors (Portal Beams) and reference beacons (Anchor Beacons) |
From the Power Saving tab, you can manage when a battery-powered device broadcasts by enabling a Power Saving mode. When in a power saving state, a device consumes less power to extend its battery lifespan. |
|
Security Only applies to room sensors (Portal Beams) and reference beacons (Anchor Beacons) |
The Security tab includes read-only details for the secure shuffling configuration set for a device. To prevent spoofing or cloning, devices can rotate (shuffle) their iBeacon and Eddystone identifiers. This setting can only be configured from the Device Management API via the shuffled configuration parameter; on (true) or off (false). |
|
Device Access |
The Device Access tab is where those assigned to the Access Manager role can manage device-level access for users. |
|
Wi-Fi Connectivity Only applies to Portal Lights |
The Wi-Fi Connectivity tab is where you manage the Wi-Fi settings that a Portal Light connects to at its installation location. |
