Introduction
The ASST1i-B1F Tag is a key component of the CloudLeaf System. The ASST1i-B1F is a small
BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) that enables the wireless network infrastructure to locate assets not
connected to a wireless network. The tag can be attached to people and to a variety of equipment,
such as containers, manufacturing equipment and vehicles. This enables tagged items to be
accurately located in real-time and in any environment – from tight indoor locations such as
Manufacturing floors to open outdoor spaces such as parking lots.

ASST1i-B1F Features
Motion Sensing
ASST1i-B1F Tags contain on-board motion sensors. The motion sensor can be configured to
trigger alerts. It also enables different transmission intervals for tags when they are stationary or
in motion – which reduces unnecessary network traffic and conserves battery life.
Telemetry Functionality
The ASST1i-B1F Tags include a serial interface that enables customized connectivity to host
units for data retrieval. The tags can be configured to retrieve data from the host periodically and
to send the data together with location messages. Applications for this function may include
reading temperature from shipping containers.
Long Battery Life
A powerful battery provides power for a period of up to 2 years. Based on CR 2032 Coin cell.
The Tag periodically provides a report on the battery level so that when the battery level runs
low, it can be replaced efficiently with minimum down time. The Tag can also be easily
modulated in order to conserve battery power.
Rugged Performance
Cloudleaf Tags are designed to function in harsh work environments and weather conditions.
The tag enclosure is water-resistant, including immersion (IP-67) and designed to withstand
significant physical shocks.
Compatibility and Non-interference
Cloudleaf Tags are based Bluetooth Low Energy based and IEEE 802.15.1. The tag’s clear
channel sensing techniques avoid interference with any IEEE 802. xx networks. The use of the
unlicensed 2.4GHz frequency band at low power levels ensures no interference with other
wireless equipment, making CloudLeaf tags safe for use with such sensitive equipment.

Tag Management
The CloudLeaf Tag can be configured, programmed and activated via a wireless interface. This
is done with the help of the Cloudleaf Tag Provisioning application. Which can be done via
Cloud Dashboard, or Mobile App designated to user.
In addition, Tag Provisioning is used to activate and deactivate tags and to program stored
messages on the tags.
Cleaning the Tag
Cleaning the external surface of the Tag’s housings can be done using Alcohol or Chloride based
wipers only.

Safety and Warnings
FCC STATEMENT
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment
off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
a) Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.b) Increase the separation between the equipment
and receiver.c) Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.d) Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:a) This device may not cause harmful
interferenceb) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
FCC Warning
Modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user authority to
operate the equipment under FCC Rules.
“FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement Caution: To maintain compliance with the FCC’s RF
exposure guidelines, place the product at least 20cm from nearby persons.”
