2. Once   the   headset   is   positioned,   press   down   on   the   headset   band   and   gently   wiggle   back   and   forth   in   place 

to   make   sure   each   Primer   has   good   contact   with   your   scalp.   To   see   a   video   on   how   to   properly   do   this,

Starting   a   Neuropriming   session 

 

1. When   you   achieve   good   contact,   there   will   be   a   ‘Start’   Button   on   the   Halo   Sport   App   screen. 
2. Press   ‘Start’   to   begin   the   Neuropriming   session. 

 

 

 
Once   you   start   a   Neuropriming   session,   you   do   not   need   to   remain   in   range   of   your   Bluetooth   device.   If   you   hear   a 
tone   from   the   headset,   you   can   check   your   Halo   Sport   App   for   details.      If   you   re-enter   close   range   of   your   Bluetooth 
device,   Halo   Sport   will   automatically   link   back   up   with   your   Bluetooth   device   and   the   Halo   Sport   App   will   display 
updated   status.  
 

 

Poor   contact   screen 

 

If   Halo   Sport   is   unable   to   make   good   contact   with   your   scalp,   the   ‘Poor   Contact’   screen   will   appear.   The   bars   above 
the   headset   represent   how   good   or   poor   the   contact   is.   Three   bars   represents   very   poor   contact   and   one   bar   means 
you   are   very   close   to   getting   the   appropriate   contact.      When   all   the   bars   disappear,   the   Halo   Sport   app   will   advance 
past   this   screen   to   begin   or   resume   your   Neuropriming   session.
