## Sensors integration

Room occupancy sensors can be integrated as follows:

- Using **ReservationSystemOccupancySensorIntegration applet **running in the CUE control system controller. Through this applet, the touchONE reservation system panels communicate with the controllers of the CUE control system, transferring data from room occupancy sensors.   
For more information on using the ReservationSystemOccupancySensorIntegration applet and joining the room occupancy sensors, see the Help section of the CUE control system programming tool Cue Visual Composer.
- Using ready-made application **touchONE-sensor-app** installed in the CUE control system controller.

## Occupancy state indication

> ℹ️ The setup of the way of displaying information on room occupancy is shared by the whole reservation suite.

| The absence of people is indicated by a green stripe. | The presence of people in the room is indicated by a vertical red stripe in the left part of the screen. | If a meeting has been planned according to the calendar but nobody is in the room, the color of the main screen will change from red to orange. |

## Join sensors

> 📝 In setting the sensors, the local network must involve a connected controller of the CUE control system running the **ReservationSystemOccupancySensorIntegration applet** or application **touchONE-sensor-app**.

There can be **up to four **sensors in one room from which occupancy information will be taken.

<span style="color: #231f20">In the fields </span><span style="color: #231f20">**Sensor 1 – Sensor 4**</span><span style="color: #231f20"> you can specify which occupancy sensors are used in a given room.</span>

Proceed as follows:

- <span style="color: #231f20">After pressing the button for sensor identification ("U"), the panel will search for available sensors in the network </span>
- <span style="color: #231f20">Available sensors are shown</span> <span style="color: #231f20">in a drop-down list box. Sensors are identified by the magic name of the controller and the name of the sensor. </span>
- <span style="color: #231f20">If there</span> <span style="color: #231f20">are no sensors in certain rooms, select "None" in the fields Sensor 1 – Sensor 4. </span>
- <span style="color: #231f20">By pressing the "Test" button you can test</span> <span style="color: #231f20">communication</span> <span style="color: #231f20">with the controller to which sensors</span> <span style="color: #231f20">are attached.</span>
