Display (optional accessory) Operating Instructions
The Display is an optional accessory intended for use with the Armband. It allows
you to easily view your up-to-the-minute information including calories burned,
steps taken, and physical activity duration.
Clip
The clip allows you to attach the Display firmly to material such as a t-shirt or trou-
sers. Never slide thick materials into the clip opening as it may strain and damage
the clip. To attach the clip:
1. Gently lift the clip lever to open the clip mouth.
2. Slide the material you wish to attach to the clip
between the upper and lower portions of the
clip mouth.
3. Push the clip lever back down to tighten and
secure the clip.
Using the Display
IMPORTANT: The Armband must be configured before the Display will function
properly. Refer to the Armband setup information aforementioned.
To begin using your Display, you must initially pair it with your Armband.
1. Slide the Armband onto your left arm and wait for it to power on. This may
take up to 10 minutes.
2. After the Armband powers on, hold down the Display’s MODE and VIEW
buttons until “Hello” is displayed on the screen.
3. The Display will read PRESS ARMBAND BUTTON TO SYNC. The Display
must be within 3 feet of the Armband.
4. Press and quickly release the Armband’s Status Button. WELCOME and your
first name will scroll across the Display to indicate pairing and synchroniza-
tion are complete.
If the Armband is not within range of the Display or is not powered on, the
Display will scroll ARMBAND NOT FOUND. In this case, try repeating the above
steps.
The Armband and Display
must
be synchronized before the Display will function
properly. Information is transmitted every 60 seconds from the Armband to the
Display as long as they are in sync. If data is not received from the Armband for 5
minutes, the Display will revert to a NOT IN SYNC mode and display the TIME.
They can also occasionally go out of sync due to environmental interference.
Once the Armband and Display have been paired, you can re-sync the Armband
and Display by simply pressing the button on the Armband, then pressing the
MODE button on the display.
The Display is completely optional and does not need to be in sync for the
Armband to work properly. Even if you are wearing the Armband and Display
and the Display reads “NOT IN SYNC”, the Armband is still collecting data and
functioning properly.
When the Display is in sync and you achieve one of your daily targets, the Display
will notify you with a series of beeps and a scrolling message stating which target
has been reached. To stop the scrolling or beeping, press the RESET TRIP button
once.
