Additional information
1.
Offline Mode
If the connection to your smart phone should suddenly be interrupted, the TU will keep on
registering your activity data and buffer it internally. As soon as the connection has been
re-established, the TU will transmit the missing data on your iPhone. This action may take
some time due to the transmission rate of the BLE. For example: One hour of data may
take up to 6 min. to transfer. The TU is able to buffer up to 24 hours of data.

Battery life of your iPhone
On doing outdoor activities while using the TU, the runtime of your battery can be
shortened considerably. This problem is mainly caused by the registration of the GPS
coordinates. Before doing any kind of outdoor activities, always ensure that your battery is
fully charged.
Questions & Answers (Troubleshooting)
Problem: The TU can’t establish any connection
Solution: Sometimes it may occur that the TU is not being detected. The problem can be solved
easily by switching the Bluetooth-connection on your iPhone on and off again and starting the TU
anew.
Problem: The TU states, that it is connected, however it lost connection to the smart phone
Solution: In case of an Electrostatic Discharge (ESD), the TechUnit may get into an undefined
mode. If that is the case, please reset the TechUnit manually (Press button for 3 seconds to turn it
off, press button again for restart)
Problem: Where is the charge status of the TechUnit indicated?
Solution: The charge status of the TechUnit is shown on the home screen of the ambiotex app, i.e.
on the upper left corner of the screen. The blinking LED light indicates that the TechUnit is
switched on. It does not provide any information about the battery charge level.
Problem: The stress level is extremely low even though I am moving.
Solution: It takes 5 minutes to have the stress level determined. If you should have moved too
excessively within this 5 minute-period, your heart rate has been increasing. The change of your
heart rate will be affected by your breath. In this case the stress level cannot be determined
accurately. Please sit down for 5 min. or just stand still and you will surely obtain a reasonable
value.
