1. General
The X-Dot X can be attached to an object to sense whether it is moving or laying still. Typically, this feature is used to detect
if an object, such as merchandize in a store, is picked up or placed back. This document provides explanation of the available
functionalities and instructions on how to install and integrate the sensor into your digital signage installation.
The information in this document is created for users who are familiar with the Nexmosphere API and are able to control a
basic setup with a Nexmosphere API controller. If this is not the case yet, please read the general documentation on the
Nexmosphere serial API first.

For pick-up detection, the X-Dot X utilizes an accelerometer to detect
whether it is moving or laying still. The sensor can be mounted to an
object using the double sided tape on the bottom of the sensor.
For security functionalities, the sensor has a phototransistor which
can measure the amount of light reaching the sensor. When the
sensor is mounted onto the merchandize, no light can reach the
sensor. When the merchandize is removed from the sensor (during
a potential security breach) light will reach the phototransitor and an
Alarm trigger is send. When the X-talk cable is cut, an alarm trigger
is send as well.
