A pin in the Superfy platform is any container, bin, or other asset shown on the map. These can be smart assets (sensor enabled), managed assets (no sensor, but rules associated) or standard assets (no sensor and no rules associated).

Pins can be added  to the map without allocating a sensor. If no sensor attached to the assets you can skip this step.

If you choose to allocate a sensor, it's crucial to:

  • Ensure that the G2 Fill Level Sensor is turned ON. Learn More
  • Take a Manual Reading after pin is added to the map to ensure a heartbeat is being sent from the sensor to the platform (confirm date and timestamp matches) and verify that the asset fullness level matches what is physically in the bin. Learn More

After adding a pin, you will notice a Grey icon on the map. If the sensor is turned ON, the icon will change colour to one of the options below.

      • Asset Serial Number - Use your own internal Asset Identification Number if applicable.
      • Vendor and Store - if applicable
      • Fill Height - add container/bin Fill Height in cm
      • Fill Gap - add container/bin Fill Gap in cm
