3 - get started

- Make sure you're charged (you, and your battery).
- Press the start button to activate the sensor.
- After the start sequence, the green LED is on and the blue LED is blinking. This indicates that the sensor is ready to connect.
- The green LED blinks when the sensor is connected to software (e.g. the APP), and the solid blue or purple LED shows it is connected via Bluetooth or ANT+.
- When you are not connecting the sensor to the APP, it shall shut down automatically.

4 - Place the sensor

The PLUS can be worn everywhere on your body and the app currently saves 8 locations. Select and connect your sensor in the smartphone app's 'connect sensor' section. You can connect up to 4 PLUS sensors and 1 HR sensor at once.

How to strap the sensor:
- Choose the right strap length
- Position the sensor directly on your skin, and place it on the belly of your muscle for maximal results.
- Pull the strap nice and tight, but do not compress your skin.
- OPTIONAL: Standardise placement and protect from ambient light with the Train.Red patch (*do not use if you're allergic to physiotape)
- Check your sensor placement with our position check in the app

Muscle oxygen data
- Muscle states
- TSI% (percentage of available oxygen in your muscles)
- Oxy and deoxyhemoglobin changes
- HbDiff (difference between oxy and deOxy hemoglobin)
- total hemoglobin

And some extra information e.g. battery status, temperature data, timestamps, and BLE quality.
