Setup Tower Board using Setup Wizard#

Note that whether it is a new tower or a tower being restarted/recovered, the steps must be the same to ensure there is no data corruption.

Prerequisites#

  • Physical IoS or Android device. A simulator will not work.

  • Have your Tower ID and login information. The app will provide you with your tower ID, we will need to provide your login information.

  • Stay nearby the tower (Within 10 feet) so you have a strong bluetooth signal to connect to it.

  • The Harbor Connect app - download for: App Store or Google Play

Using the wizard#

Location/Tower/Locker example
You should see one of more towers with the “Begin Tower Setup” option.

These are the steps you need to complete to fully set up a tower.

Select your tower ID#

Location/Tower/Locker example
This screen will show you towers that have not been set yet, there’s usually only one unset tower per location but if there are multiple available you need to check the tower ID provided.

Updating Firmware#

Location/Tower/Locker example
If your tower’s firmware is up to date you will see this screen. You’ll just need to hit “Done” on the bottom of the page.

If you need another firmware, you can choose it with the “Advanced Settings” button. These firmwares are for specialty uses only.

Download Config#

You only need to wait until this step is done, if it fails then retry this step.

Testing hardware#

Location/Tower/Locker example
Now you can test the hardware. Hit “Open all” to test every lock. Watch for any errors or lockers that do not open.

If a door doesn’t open there might be a hardware issue, we have a few suggestions here.

Testing server connection#

Location/Tower/Locker example
Next, select a locker port and hit continue to test a locker dropoff.
The locker will open, be sure to close it

This will take a minute to communicate with the server. If there are no errors, continue to the pickup.

Location/Tower/Locker example
If there are no errors, the locker can communicate with the server just fine and will work with apps such as Harbor Pilot or Droplocker
Remember to close the locker

Refine The tower’s location#

Location/Tower/Locker example
Make sure the tower’s location on the map is where it actually is, if there is a difference select “Edit map location”
Location/Tower/Locker example
If you are right in front of the tower, hit “Use My location” and then save.

All steps completed#
