Ubisense Mini Tags
The Ubisense DIMENSION4 Mini Tag (D4FLAT33) is a small self-contained tracking tag, intended
for high-accuracy tracking of smaller objects or people. Mini Tags are mechanically strong and
resistant to dust and water. Additional features of Mini Tags are:
lan LED for easy status identification
la motion detector to instantly activate a stationary tag
la magnetic reed switch to trigger context-sensitive events
la replaceable battery
A variety of mounting methods allow the Mini Tag to be securely attached to a wide range of
objects.
Haptic Feedback
Ubisense DIMENSION4 Mini Tags are available with haptic feedback integrated into the same
small-sized tag, useful for providing immediate feedback if the tag is worn or carried by a worker.

The features of Mini Tags are shown in the following figure.
Features of Mini Tags
Feature Description
A. Magnetic Reed Switch Reed switch you can use to activate the tag and put it back into the
deep sleep state. You can use any reasonably strong magnet (for
example a fridge magnet) for these purposes.
Note that the reed switch is red in color and visible through the
transparent case of the tag.
B. LED The tag has an LED, which flashes when it is active.

Activating Mini Tags
Activating Mini Tags
To preserve the battery, Mini Tags are shipped in the deep sleep (deactivated) state.
Before you use a tag for the first time, it must be woken up (activated) from the deep sleep state.
To activate a tag:
1. Hold a strong magnet (such as a fridge magnet) against the reed switch. The LED lights up.
2. Continue to hold the magnet for a few seconds. The LED does a dim to bright transition,
and then starts blinking.The tag is now activated and ready to be used.

Putting Mini Tags into Deep Sleep
Putting Mini Tags into Deep Sleep
If a tag is activated, you can put it back into the deep sleep state at any time to preserve the
battery.
It is not possible to accidentally put a tag into deep sleep because the tag sets a 'challenge' and
expects a 'response'. The LED will blink one or more times and you respond by pressing the
button or swiping the magnet on the tag the same number of times. The tag then repeats the
challenge and you respond again. After the second challenge and a successful response, the LED
blinks brighter than normal and then switches off indicating the tag is now in deep sleep.
Putting a Tag into a Deep Sleep
To put a tag into the deep sleep state:
1. Hold a strong magnet (such as a fridge magnet) against the reed switch for a few seconds.
The LED stops blinking in readiness for the first challenge.
2. Remove the magnet from the reed switch. Count the number of times the LEDblinks. This
can be from two to five blinks.
3. Hold against and then remove the magnet from the reed switch the same number of times.
Count the number of times the LEDblinks.
4. Repeat Step 3. The LED on the tag does a dim to bright transition, and the tag enters the
deep sleep state (the state in which it was shipped).
Note: If you hold and remove the magnet from the reed switch the wrong number of times
during Steps 3 and 4, the tag starts blinking again. If this occurs, restart the process as described
in Step 1.

Replacing the Battery of a Mini Tag
Replacing the Battery of a Mini Tag
This section explains how to replace the batteries of Ubisense Mini Tags.
Tag parameters are retained when the power source is removed from the tag.
Suggested Tools
Torque Driver and Bit
To prevent risk of damage to the enclosure we recommend the use of a good quality torque
driver; the screws only require a relatively low torque so the trick is to find a driver that goes low
enough.
We recommend the Wera 7440 Torque driver, which can be set from 30cNm – 1.2Nm:
Wera 7440 Torque driver
The wide torque range means this driver is also suitable for use with the Industrial Tags, which
require a torque of 0.8Nm. If you are only ever replacing the batteries in the D4FLAT33 tag then
you may also want to consider the lower-cost Wera 7460 Torque driver, as this is pre-set to
30cNm.
When selecting a bit to use with this driver ensure the body of the bit does not cause damage to
the enclosure. We recommend Wera part reference 05059910001:

Replacing the Battery of a Mini Tag
WERA bit with long neck
The long neck, which is narrower diameter than the head, prevents damage to the enclosure
during removal or subsequent replacement of the screws.
Non-Conducting Spudger
A non-conducting (plastic) screwdriver or a sharp-edged spudger can make removal of the
original battery easier:
Non-conducting spudger
The sharp end should be small enough to fit into the enclosure without interfering with any of the
small components present on the carrier PCB.
