4. Give App permission to use Location, and "specific Location" if needed. You also must give App permission to use "Nearby devices" when applicable.
5. Bluetooth wireless connection must be enabled, on and active in your smartphone with the App always when using it with the sensor(s) and want to get
the data in near-real-time.
6. Ensure mobile data and roaming (if needed) are enabled, on and active in your mobile device for the App and always when using it with the head sensor, or
that you are connected to Wi-Fi.
7. Remove the head sensor from its package. Open the hatch. Remove the plastic strip in between the battery and the electronics by carefully pulling it off, or
buy CR2032 coin cell battery if it was not included and insert the battery to the sensor via hatch on the short side (see illustrated instructions in the end of
this document).
8. Locate the head sensor's Serial number also acting as Registration code, which is on the product label underneath the battery hatch. Open the hatch and
you will find the white sticker on the lid. Registration code is a 6-digit code on the product label.
9. Close the hatch by pressing all sides firmly together to seal the locks. Make sure the sides are seamlessly connected with each other before usage. Please
note: Inserting the battery may turn the sensor on, but some components might not turn on. Before usage, switch the sensor off and back on.
10. Turn the head sensor on by pressing the on/off-button once slowly and firmly. The sensor is on when the small red LED light next to the button starts to
blink in slow frequency. If the light blinks in high frequency (in fast pace), the battery is almost empty. Change the battery or ACT Head Impact Tracker might
not work as intended. If the light does not come on at all or the light comes on, but it is not blinking, try with new battery. If the light still is not coming on at
all, or the light comes on, but it is not blinking, the head sensor is not working as it is supposed to and should be replaced.
11. When the sensor is on, choose the Profile you want to add the sensor to and click on it. Click then green button next to "Sensors", and then the "Add
Sensor" button. The App has found the sensor when it says: "Found 1 sensor". Click "Continue". The App is connected to the sensor when it shows
"Connected to 1/1 sensors". Add the Registration code to the line under the text. Click "Continue". If the App cannot find any sensor, switch the sensor off
and back on, and try again. If the App finds more than one sensor, switch off all the other sensors than the one you want to register and try again. Please
note: You can register the head sensor only once, and to one Profile only. It is not possible to remove or change the head sensor to another Profile once
registered.
12. Follow Apps instructions to complete sensor registration. Please note: you cannot change sensor's information once registered.
13. When data filling is completed, the App will confirm "Registration is successful". This means your ACT Head Impact Tracker is ready for action.
14. In the end of each session of use, make sure to switch off the sensor by pressing on/off-button slowly and firmly twice. Wait for one long LED light blink to
indicate the sensor is switched off. Doing this will prevent impacts from handling and transportation to be recorded to your impact history. It will also save
energy and prolong your battery lifetime.
See pictures in the end of this manual for more detailed instructions.
IMPORTANT USAGE INFORMATION
- Ensure you have given App permission to use "Location" and "specific location if needed.
- You also must give permission to use "Nearby devices" for the App.
- Bluetooth wireless connection must be enabled on your mobile device for ACT Head Impact Tracker smartphone mobile App and always when using with
the sensor(s) and want to get data in near-real-time
- Ensure you have a valid SIM-card or e-SIM, mobile data, and roaming (if needed) enabled, on and active, or that you are connected to Wi-Fi, in your mobile
device with ACT Head Impact Tracker smartphone mobile App always when using the head sensor. Otherwise, ACT Head Impact Tracker will not function as
intended.
- Be aware of the reach limitations in data transfers between the sensor and the mobile device with ACT Head Impact Tracker smartphone mobile App. In
case of an incident, keep the distance between the sensor and the mobile device with the App as short as possible (the reach could be even less than 10
meters), or ACT Head Impact Tracker might not function as intended. Data transfer reach may vary significantly depending on, but not limited to place of use,
weather, smartphone model and brand, buildings and obstacles on the signal's route. In case of an incident, place the smartphone as close to the head sensor
as possible.
- When using the sensor, open the App, stay logged in and keep App on top and screen lighted and active always when you want to listen to the sensors and
for the duration of the exercise. You also might need to use Active scanning, depending on your mobile device.
- Sensor can store information of 464 impacts. To avoid losing your impact data, connect the sensor to the App regularly.
- IMPORTANT USAGE INFORMATION! The sensor will switch off automatically after 3 hours (180 minutes). If your activity session lasts three hours or
more, make sure to switch the sensor back on every three hours.
- Compatibility with all smartphone brands and models cannot be guaranteed. Please check frequently updating compatibility and test listing with different
mobile phone brands and models in our Help FAQ (www.act-tracker.com). If your mobile device is not automatically connecting with the sensors (i.e. an event
occurs, you are in Bluetooth® Wireless connection's reach, but information is not appearing to the App) try with Active scanning. Depending on your mobile
device, you might need to always use Active scanning to connect with the sensors. Active Scan works like this: 1.) Click "Menu" (3 bars on the left upper hand
corner) > Click "Start active scan" > text turns to say "Stop active scan" = Active scanning is on until you switch it off. Stop Active scanning by clicking on text
"Stop active scan". 2.) When the text says "Start active scan" = Active scanning is off. 3.) If needed, always use active scanning when you want to connect to
the sensors.
HOW TO WEAR IT
IMPORTANT USAGE INFORMATION! The sensor measures forces on the object it is attached to.
1. We strongly recommend attaching the ACT Head Impact Tracker sensor to a head accessory of user's choice, also when wearing a helmet. The sensor can
be attached to almost any kind of head accessory or wear, with hook and loop -tape. Head bands and Docks specifically designed to accommodate the head
sensor has been developed and are many cases available for purchase in same webstores as the sensors.
2. Always place the sensor so that its head side (i.e. the side with the foam, on/off-button and LED light is facing your head). If you use a head band, the
sensor is to be placed between the head and the head band.
3. WARNING! Place the sensor only in a location where impacts, bumps or pressure do not occur.
4. If you feel pressure or discomfort when wearing the sensor, change the sensor placement.
5. If you consider attaching the sensor to a helmet, refer to your helmet's User Manual, Owner's Guide or corresponding document to verify if it is possible.
Always follow the helmet manufacturer's instructions on safe helmet use. Only use a helmet that meets the applicable safety standards when you use a
helmet with ACT Head Impact Tracker head sensor or ACT Head Impact Tracker Pro head sensor.
