INITIAL STEP -

 

Charge it:

 On the bottom of the sensor, pry open the

rubber cover to reveal the Micro USB Port. Use the included micro
USB cable to connect the sensor to a USB port or a USB charger (such
as PS-2575). If the cable is connected to a USB 

port

, the Battery LED

shines yellow to show that the battery is charging. When the battery
is charged, the Battery LED shines green. If the cable is connected to
a USB 

charger

, the Battery LED shines yellow 

and

 the Bluetooth sta-

tus LED blinks red to indicate that the sensor is ready to connect to a
device (such as a computer or tablet).
