Introduction
Tunstall’s Device Management Platform – DMP – is a cloud-based
system that enables remote monitoring, administration, and
configuration of your devices. Within DMP, you can view the current
status of each device as well as a detailed event log. DMP also
enables you to configure and amend the configuration settings of
your devices.
Functionality
NOTE: DMP is not part of the alarm distribution
and holds no information about care recipients.
Communication paths
DMP communicates with each device over the internet. A device
can connect to DMP across a cellular data network or an
Ethernet/fixed-line network. The connection is used to transmit
data such as heartbeats, firmware, and configuration updates
between DMP and the device. Each device has a unique identification
number that allows DMP to keep track of all devices.
Monitoring
DMP constantly monitors the heartbeats sent from each device. A
heartbeat contains a status update and is represented by a status
icon within the system. With DMP, you can view current status and
recent status changes as well as the event log of each device. In
addition, DMP generates and distributes email reports related to
device status and events.
Configuration settings
DMP holds a record of each device that contains current
configuration settings and details about firmware status and
events. Each device has a unique identification number that allows
DMP to keep track of all devices. Within the system, you can
configure and amend device settings either manually or using
pre-configured template settings. Templates can be applied to a
single device or a cluster of devices. Configuration changes are
initially saved to the internal record. DMP then waits until it
receives a heartbeat from a device and then starts to download the
configuration settings to the device.

1. Introduction
Tunstall’s Device Management Platform – DMP – is a cloud-based system that
enables remote monitoring, administration and configuration of your devices.
Within DMP you can view the current status of each device as well as a
detailed event log. DMP also enables you to configure and amend the
configuration settings of your devices.
1.1. Functionality
The main functions of DMP are to monitor, administrate and configure the
connected devices. DMP and the devices communicate over the internet using
cellular networks or fixed line networks. DMP constantly monitors the status
of each device and provides an overview of the devices that are active,
inactive or have communication issues. The system can also provide detailed
information about each device. DMP holds a record of current configuration
settings and firmware for each device. Within the system it is possible to
configure and amend device settings manually or using pre-configured template
settings. DMP automatically downloads any configuration changes to the device
or devices. Within DMP, devices are held and maintained in districts. Access
is delegated to users by assigning permission profiles. All user accounts
contain a permission profile that defines what type of operations the user can
perform within the system.
NOTE DMP is not part of the alarm distribution and holds no information about
care recipients.
1.1.1. Communication paths DMP communicates with each device over the
internet. A device can connect to DMP across a cellular data network
or an Ethernet/fixed-line network . The connection is used to transmit data
such as heartbeats, firmware and configuration updates between DMP and the
device. Each device has a unique identification number that allows DMP to keep
track of all devices.

1.1.2. Monitoring DMP constantly monitors the heartbeats sent from each
device. A heartbeat contains a status update and is represented by a status
icon within the system. With DMP you can view current status and recent status
changes as well as the event log of each device. In addition, DMP generates
and distributes email reports related to device status and events.
1.1.3. Configuration settings DMP holds a record of each device that contains
current configuration settings and details about firmware status and events.
Each device has a unique identification number that allows DMP to keep track
of all devices. Within the system, you can configure and amend device settings
either manually or using pre-configured template settings. Templates can be
applied to a single device or a cluster of devices. Configuration changes are
initially saved
5
to the internal record. DMP then waits until it receives a heartbeat from a
device and then starts to download the configuration settings to the device.

4.2. Districts and customers
Customers are arranged in hierarchies, with each customer having a single
“parent” customer. A customer can have one or several sub-customers. Each
customer has a set of sub-groups known as districts. Within DMP a district is
a defined group of devices. Using districts simplifies monitoring and
administration of the devices. The following district types are available for
organising districts: · Active: for districts with devices that are active in
DMP · Inactive: for districts with devices that are inactive in DMP · Returns:
for districts with devices that are scheduled to be returned to the supplier
or Tunstall · Storage: for districts with devices that are stored and not in
active use in DMP Note that the district type does not affect the status of
devices. For example, a device with an inactive status can be located in a
district that is an “Active” district type. Access to customers and districts
depends on what type of permission profile the users have and how customers
are organised. In some cases, users can only view districts and devices that
belong to one customer. In other cases, some users may have access to
districts and devices across several customers. 4.2.1. Districts page The

5. Devices
Within DMP a device is defined as a single carephone unit. The main functions
of DMP are to administer and monitor the devices to ensure that they are
functioning correctly. DMP constantly monitors the heartbeats sent from each
device. A heartbeat contains a status update from a device and is represented
by a status icon within DMP. In addition to heartbeats, DMP records each event
that relates to the administration of the devices. When updating the
configuration settings or firmware of a device, DMP waits until it receives a
heartbeat from a device and then starts to download the new settings or
firmware to the device. During download and installation, the device has a
technical heartbeat status indicated by the blue status icon .
NOTE DMP is not part of the alarm distribution and holds no information about
care recipients.

and customers: · a customer may have a default template that the customer
automatically applies to all devices on migration · templates that are part of
a migration process will be applied to devices before customer default
templates · a sub-customer may only allow templates that directly belong to
that customer and therefore does not allow
templates made available by a parent customer The following template types are
available: · standard templates that are created within DMP and contain
defined values for one or more device settings. A
standard template writes the defined values when the template is applied. ·
configuration files for Lifeline Digital and Careline. A configuration file
contains a CFW file that was created with a
configuration tool outside DMP. The CFW file overwrites all device settings
when the template is applied. · factory reset templates that contain factory
reset settings for Lifeline Digital and Careline. A factory reset template
contains a CFW file that was created with a configuration tool outside DMP.
The CFW file overwrites all device settings when the template is applied. When
updating the configuration settings of a device, DMP waits until it receives a
heartbeat from a device and then starts to download the new settings to the
device. During download and installation, the device has a technical heartbeat
status indicated by the blue status icon . If a device is offline when a
template is assigned to it, the device will not download the template
settings. Contact your supplier or Tunstall if you have any questions.
