Humly Booking Device - Provisioning

This document contains the steps to connect a new Humly Booking Device to Humly Control Panel using WIFI or ethernet.

Device Provisioning Requirements

The iOS version of Humly Device Provisioning requires an iPhone running iOS 16 or later. Additionally, the device must support Bluetooth 5.0 or higher to ensure proper functionality.

Device Provisioning Steps

 

  • To be able to add resource type desk and have it activated, a resource license in Humly control panel is needed. 
  • You need to upload  a Humly Booking Device License to HCP to be able to connect the Humly booking device to a resource (room or desk).

 

  1. In Humly Control Panel:
  • Assign resources to a structure, by dragging the resources from the left to the structure on the right.

  • From the HCP global settings, start the registration period.

  • Prepare the Global Admin user name and password. They will be needed in the next step of the provisioning software.

2.       Start the HBD device and click on Connect Device, you should see a QR code on the device.

3.   Start the provisioning application from your mobile phone, enter your cloud ID or your server URL with the port number (for example win22-6.sss.ce:3002) if you are using an on-prem setup, and enter the username and password of the HCP global admin account, then click next.
