Set up · sensors
Install your sensor straight from this page.
No software to download and no command line. Plug a Beacon sensor into your computer with a USB cable, click install, and your browser flashes it and helps it onto your Wi-Fi.
Beacon Sensor (all-in-one)
One image for every unit. Wire up what you need — hot-tub water temperature, presence and detection distance — and each one reports automatically. Turn individual sensors on or off on the device’s own page.
Bluetooth gateway
Picks up nearby Bluetooth room thermometers and relays them to Beacon. One per property.
How it works
- 1
Plug it in
Connect the sensor to your computer with a USB-C cable. Use desktop Chrome or Edge — they're the browsers that can talk to USB devices.
- 2
Click install
Pick your device above and click Install over USB. Choose the serial port that appears, and Beacon flashes the latest firmware.
- 3
Add your Wi-Fi
When prompted, enter your property's Wi-Fi name and password. The sensor saves it and connects — no config files.

Link it to a property
Sign in to Beacon, open the property and generate its push token, then the sensor starts reporting.
Prefer not to flash it yourself? Beacon sensors can ship ready to go — just plug in and add Wi-Fi. Ask us about pre-flashed hardware.
