Introduction

Smart button 1 (later referred to as SB1) is a product designed to ease and simplify the use of height-changing tables. It is used to intuitively control the height of the table and change the color of the table’s lights (if available). 

Click the Smart Button once and place your hand above the sensor. A blue ring will start filling up as it scans the distance to your hand. Hold it steady for a second. Once the distance is measured you can move your hand away, TableAir already knows how high it has to go up.

Click the Smart Button and hold it until the yellow ring is full – the desk will start lowering itself automatically. Release the Smart Button at the desired height.

Installation instructions

What’s in the box?
SB1 structure

Connect the power cable to the SB1’s DC power port and LINAK’s DC power port.


Timotion leg control box:
Connect the Ethernet cable to the SB1’s table control port and the Timotion leg controller’s H port.

SB1 installation

Insert the SB1 device top down into the table plate and turn so that the distance sensors are parallel to the short edge of the table.


Remove the protective film from the brackets and attach them to the table plate and the device. Fix the brackets parallel to the short edge of the table.


Table-top thickness must be at least 12 mm and up to 25 mm. SB1 device mounting hole diameter ranges from 73.2 mm to 73.6 mm.


Note: Cord length is 1 meter. This should be considered when installing the SB1 device to the leg controller. To guarantee sufficient cord length the SB1 device should be located near the leg controller. 

Software setup

In order to use SB1 devices you need to have an account and belong to a team. If you are not sure, please contact your supervisor for more information. If you want more information about team creation and app usage please visit our Introduction to TableAir Cloud Manual and the Administrators’ Manual. In order to add sensors to your team you will need to download the TableAir app (either on iPhone or Android device) and you will need to have administrator rights in your team.

Downloading the TableAir app

Download the TableAir app on your smartphone device. You can find it on the App Store for iPhone devices and on Google Play for Android devices

Logging into the app

Launch the TableAir app you have just downloaded and log into your TableAir Cloud account.

Make sure both Bluetooth and WiFi are enabled on your mobile device.

Assigning tables to the venue

After logging into your account, select the team and venue, and then tap on the icon in the bottom left corner of the app.

You’ll see all the free unassigned tables in the venue. Select the ones you’d like to add to the system and tap ‘Assign’ to proceed. All unassigned tables are selected by default.

Select the WiFi network or type the hidden WiFi network name that you want the tables to be assigned to (this will help to track the table usage real-time).

Enter your WiFi password. You’ll receive a confirmation message if everything has been done correctly.

Firmware update

For the device to work properly it must be up to date. Firmware updates are released regularly and upgrade various parts of the device. You can see the latest firmware version in your Dashboard under the Sensors tab.

In the same Sensor tab in the Dashboard you are able to see the current firmware version of all of your devices.

There are a couple of ways to update your firmware.

Firmware update using Bluetooth

If your device is not up to date, once you connect to the device using the TableAir app through Bluetooth you will get a pop-up notifying you about that. You will be prompted to update your device.

Connecting to the device is possible if you have a booking on that device, so in other terms, checking in. The other way you can connect to a device is by being logged out and using Guest Mode. Once in Guest mode, all of the devices are shown and you can connect to either one of them.

Firmware update using the Dashboard

If the device is connected to the Internet and there is a firmware upgrade available, you will see it in the Sensors tab in the Dashboard. Under the Actions column look for the Upgrade sensor button.

It is also possible to update all of the devices by clicking the UPGRADE ALL button which is located at the bottom of the Sensors tab.
