2. Press
READ
until the
SPORTS MODE / BARCODE
screen displays.
3. Press
F1
to initiate
SPORTS MODE
.
4.
Approach the player (subject) and hold the recorder near the small of the back.
5. Press
READ
to take a reading for the Player # (Active Sensor #) displayed or enter
the 2-digit Player # (Active Sensor #).
NOTE: Take a minimum of 2 readings per Player # (Active Sensor #) to
ensure correct proximity of the recorder to the Player (Subject) while taking
a reading.
6.
To end monitoring / data collection, press
RUN / STOP
to terminate
SPORTS MODE
.
7. Press
ENTER
to return to
EXIT / STBY
mode.
NOTE: If erratic readings are observed, verify the following: Placement of the
recorder (AUTO RUN MODE), proximity and movement of the recorder while taking a
reading (SPORTS MODE), and Signal Interference.
B.4. Use of More than One Sensor
In some applications it may be necessary to monitor core body temperature even after one
temperature sensor has passed from the body. When using more than one sensor, be
absolutely certain that the previous active sensor has passed from the body.
To verify that a sensor has passed from the body, do the following:
1. Use
the
SENSOR TEST
function to verify that the sensor has passed from the body.
2.
Move the recorder to several positions near the abdomen of the subject (player).
3.
If the sensor has passed from the body or no longer has an active signal, the screen
will display
SENSOR OFF
.
NOTE: If two active sensors of the same system frequency are in the subject
(player) at the same time, the resulting temperature recordings will be erroneous.
B.5. Event Markers in
AUTO RUN MODE
Each numeric key of the keypad may be correlated to an event. Whenever the subject
(player) experiences a specific event, such as drinking cold liquids or an activity, an event
marker can be tagged to the next collected temperature reading by pressing the
appropriate numeric key. For example, key
1
could be "Cold Drink," key
2
could be
"Running," etc. Each time a key is pressed, the recorder screen will display the event
number entered, and event markers are recorded to memory and appear in the
downloaded data. (Refer to
Appendix 3: Data Interpretation Key
).
B.6. Signal Interference
Erratic readings may be observed when within close proximity to PC / Laptops, CRTs,
Digital Phone Systems, and other equipment (such as NMR / MRI machines) generating
large electromagnetic fields (EMF).
