    • Adapter Cable Length: 2.0m (6.56 ft)

    • There is a ferrite on the cable with a diameter of 2 cm (0.79 in)

 

Pre-Installation Planning

  • Mounting Height:

    • Standard Height: The common mounting height for general visibility is 1500 mm (5 ft) from the floor to the center of the device. This is based on the average standing eye level.

    • Accessible Height (ADA/DDA Compliant): To ensure compliance with accessibility standards, the highest interactive part of the device should be no more than 1220 mm (48 in) from the floor. This height is reachable from a wheelchair.

Always confirm the final mounting height with the building manager or client before installation. Local building codes and accessibility laws (like the ADA) take precedence over general recommendations.

  • Cable Routing: Plan the cable route.

    • For Desk Mounting: This is the simplest method. The device cable and any power accessories (like a PoE or 5V adapter) are hidden underneath the desk. The desk mount and accessories can be secured with adhesive or clips.

    • For Wall Mounting: The recommendation is to run the power cable (5V DC, USB-C or PoE) externally on the wall surface. This cable should be concealed using a cable cord (also known as a surface raceway or trunking) for a clean, professional finish. The Wall Mount Back Plate is designed to accept a cable from its edge.

  • Adhesive Surfaces (Critical): For desk or glass mounting, the surface must be flat, smooth, and non-porous. It must be cleaned with Isopropyl Alcohol and be completely dry. Do not use standard glass cleaner, which can leave residue.

 

Mounting Instructions for Desks (Under-Desk)

Options:

  • On top of desk
  • Under desk

 

1. Prepare Surface: Thoroughly clean the underside of the desk with isopropyl alcohol. Allow it to dry completely.

2. Insert Device: Slide the Humly Booking Device into the Desk Mount Kit until it is fully seated.

3. Secure Device: Insert the T15H safety screw into the designated hole on the mount and tighten gently. Do not overtighten.

4. Connect cable: Connect the Humly Booking Device to a power source by selecting either the 5V/3A power adapter or utilizing Power over Ethernet (PoE) with Desk Control, based on your installation preference.



5. Adhere Mount: Peel the protective film from the adhesive backing.

6. Position and Press: Position the mount under the desk (e.g., 1 cm / 0.4 inch from the edge). Press the entire mount firmly against the surface for at least 60 seconds.

 

Standard Wall Mounting

1. Separate Mount: Gently detach the Wall Mount Back Plate from the back of the device.

2. Position and Level: Place the back plate against the wall at the recommended height (1500 mm / 5 ft). Use a level to ensure it is horizontal.

3. Mark & Drill: Use a pencil to mark the 2 or 4 hole locations. Drill holes and insert wall anchors if required.

4. Mount Back Plate: Mount the back plate to the wall with the screws and route the cables through the appropriate channels on the device.

Use 2 – 4 screws depending on the structural capacity of the wall. Always drill holes and use suitable plugs for wall types such as concrete, plaster etc. Choose a screw type that is suitable for the type of plug and wall concerned. Use screws with a diameter of 4 – 5 mm / gauge # 7 - 10 and minimum length of 35 mm / 1- 3 /8 in. If uncertain, always contact a specialist or dealer for assistance with wall mounting.

Make sure not to tighten the screws too tight - the mount might bend. Also, do not remove the protective film on the back of the mounting bracket - the “sticky surface” should only be used for glass wall mounting.

5. Connect Cable: Connect the Ethernet (PoE) or 5V DC cable to the back of the Humly Booking Device.

6. Attach Device: Align the device with the mounted back plate and slide it down until it clicks securely into place. Insert the T15H safety screw into the hole at the bottom (or side) and tighten gently to lock the device.

6. To ensure a seamless installation and maintain a clean appearance, consider using a cable management solution to conceal the power cable.

 

Power On & Next Steps

Once the device is mounted and connected to a live PoE port or 5V adapter, it will automatically power on. The display will show a welcome screen and you can now proceed with provisioning the device.
