1.2 – Perform the mapping of the area

You can now proceed with mounting the camera and the mapping of your environment starting from this page.

2 – Additional information

2.1 – Power supply on mobile devices (e.g. forklifts/AGV)

For what concerns the power supply of the mini PC you have mainly 2 options:

1. purchase a power inverter – a power inverter takes as input the DC current from a battery and provides as output an 110/220 Volts AC current that can be used by the power supply of the mini PC.
2. purchase a DC/DC converter (with the correct DC plug) – the DC/DC converter takes as input the DC current  battery and provides as output a regulated 12-19 Volts DC current that can be used directly by the mini PC (without having to use the mini PC power supply).
   • This is an example of good quality DC/DC 24/12 converter used by us.

2.2 – Turn on the mini PC automatically when it is connected to the electricity

In order to turn on the mini PC automatically when the power is connected, you need to activate the feature in BIOS settings.

1. connect a monitor with HDMI and a USB keyboard to the mini PC and turn it on.
2. when the system is on, before the OS boots, you need to keep pressing F2 button to enter the BIOS. Then:
   1. Go to “Power” tab.
   2. Click on “Secondary Power Settings”.
   3. Scroll down to “After Power Failure” and choose “Power On” from the dropdown list.
   4. Save and exit.

2.3 – Visualize the spaghetti diagrams and heatmaps

The spaghetti diagrams and heatmaps can be visualized inside the Dragonfly Cloud Dashboard after having activated the storage of the historical positions following these steps.
