KINEXON RTLS installation planning
KINEXON RTLS installation planning begins by identifying RTLS Pro or RTLS Mesh and the approved facility design. These product families create different physical infrastructure requirements, so the field estimate must follow the chosen architecture.

SRS Networks is a nationwide infrastructure deployment company headquartered in South San Francisco, California, serving enterprises across the 48 contiguous states, Alaska, and Hawaii since 1996. We scope mounting, cabling, network readiness and field documentation against the selected RTLS design. The platform owner specifies the radio layout, commissioning and application acceptance.
Independent planning guidance for KINEXON infrastructure. Manufacturer names identify the technology; this page does not represent a certified or authorized manufacturer relationship. SRS field work is scoped against approved instructions and the actual delivery team's qualifications.
Identify Pro or Mesh in the scope
KINEXON describes Pro with wired anchors and Mesh with wireless anchors. Record the selected family and device schedule before counting cable drops or lift visits. Use the manufacturer-approved design for the actual project.
- Product family and models
- Approved device schedule
- Mounting and access requirements
- Current installation instructions
Separate the tracking use case from automation
Asset location, production events and automated control are different acceptance problems. Identify the intended output and application owner. Robot orchestration, PLC changes and safety controls require their own qualified engineering scope.
- Required location output
- Application owner
- Explicit integration boundary
- Separate control-system responsibilities
Coordinate the field package with software readiness
A completed mounting schedule is useful only if the platform team has the required information and access. Confirm the system owner, networking prerequisites and commissioning window before mobilization. Record dependency failures instead of declaring the whole system ready.
- Platform contact
- Network prerequisites
- Device and location records
- Commissioning window
Accept each project phase on its own evidence
Use installation records to close physical work, then use platform test records to accept tracking. For repeated facilities, carry forward the approved checklist rather than copying unverified installation quantities.
- Physical installation signoff
- Positioning test record
- Application integration acceptance
- Site-specific exception closure
Send the drawings, device schedule and acceptance owner
Complete the workbook with your platform designer. Record device quantities, approved mounting points, access constraints and infrastructure dependencies. We use those inputs to define field labor and handoff responsibilities.
Email partners@srsnetworks.com with the site count, states and target work window.
Questions to settle before the crew arrives
Are RTLS Pro and RTLS Mesh the same field scope?
No. The manufacturer's product overview distinguishes wired and wireless anchor families. Scope the selected hardware and its approved infrastructure.
Does the installation scope include robot or PLC programming?
Do not assume it does. Those responsibilities belong in a separate engineering scope with a qualified owner and acceptance plan.
Is SRS an authorized KINEXON partner?
This guide makes no authorization claim. Confirm any required manufacturer relationship and delivery credentials for the actual project.
Can manufacturer accuracy figures become the project guarantee?
Only the agreed design and acceptance terms establish the project requirement. Do not turn a product marketing figure into an installer guarantee.
What does SRS need to scope the physical work?
Send the site list, states, drawings, device schedule and approved installation instructions. Include access windows and the contact who owns platform commissioning so responsibilities can be agreed before dispatch.
Which costs affect the field estimate?
Mounting access, work windows, pathways, travel, device quantities and readiness gaps affect field labor. Platform licenses, calibration and application integration should be quoted separately by their assigned owners.
How should a pilot become a multi-site deployment?
Accept the pilot against the agreed physical and platform tests before repeating it. Carry forward the approved checklist, record site-specific differences and confirm readiness before each later visit.
What does the scope workbook include?
It records site readiness, device locations, responsibility owners, acceptance checks and cost categories. Complete it with the platform designer and facility owner, then use it to request comparable field estimates.
