Setting Up Device For Team Use
User profile names must be setup before any device can be assigned to a particular user. For
team use, a list of teammates and a team name must also be created. See page 7.
When an unassigned device is plugged into the computer, the software will check whether you
wish to create new account or assign the device to an existing account. Select
“
Add to Existing
Account
”
.
On the
“Add Device to Account”
page, select the user you wish to assign the device
to. Assign to a user name that you have set up when account was registered. See page 7. Select
the sport and level of expertise. Set up the minimum recording threshold and the alarm
threshold. The alarm threshold is the g-force that will trigger the alarm LED and buzzer. You can
select the option of turning off the alarm audio and/or visual. The device can now be added to a
team located under
“Manage Teams”
located under the
“Settings”
dropdown menu.
Starting a Session
Depress the button on the GFT for 3 seconds to wake up the GFT. You will hear a beep and you
will see a flashing green status
“heart beat”
LED. Note that the device will go into deep sleep
mode if there is no movement after 5 seconds. The LED will go off to conserve battery life. If the
device is moved slightly, the device will awaken instantaneously and continue to flash the green
“
heart beat
” LED
to show it is operational.
If a GFT device receives a hit over a preset threshold level, the red LED on the ON/OFF button
will flash and the alarm buzzer will beep to alert the user that a hit over the threshold has been
reached. The LED will continue to flash until the data in the memory is uploaded to the cloud.
To conserve battery life, depress the on/off button for 3 seconds to turn the device completely
off when not in use. Note that the unit will continue to record data until the memory is full.
Note that the end of session can defined at the point when the device is turned off or when it is
plugged into the computer to upload data.
Uploading Your Data
To upload session data, connect the GFT to the computer using the USB cable. The session data
automatically uploads to the cloud.
DO NOT DISCONNECT
while data is being uploaded. If you
have multiple devices, you can plug them at any time. The GLink software will manage all the
devices and session data for you. Note that a session is defined as any activity on the GFT after
the device has been turned on to the point when the device is turned off or when it is
connected to the computer by USB. The cloud is a secure place to keep all your session data
synchronized.
