TD-5 I cannot see the LED

lights.

Either the device is out of
battery, or the LED is damaged

/ an unexpected error has
occurred.

Charge and reset the device by
plugging it to a USB connection.

If not resolved, contact us.

TD-6 Device

is

not

discoverable, and it is
emitting green light.

If not connected for a while or
if has received a disconnect
request from host machine,
the device will go to offline
mode.

Press the button twice like a double
click. It will make the device visible
again. The device should start
blinking in blue at 1 Hz once
successfully becoming visible again.
You can now pair and connect to
the device.

TD-7 Device

cannot

be

connected

and

is

emitting blue light.

Bluetooth error.

Turn the device off and on. Reset
the program and see if the problem
has been solved.

If still not able to connect, unpair
the device and pair it again.

TD-8 Signal is too noisy.

Bad electrode connection or
Bluetooth interference.

Check if the electrodes are properly
connected, especially the reference
electrode. Make sure the cables are
intact and correctly connected to
the

Explore,

and

that

the

impedance values are low enough.
Else, try moving the Explore closer
to the host machine, or turning off
other Bluetooth devices nearby
which may interfere.

TD-9 I observe a sinusoidal

signal

instead

of

applied signal.

Impedance mode is active.

Disable the impedance mode (e.g.
with Ctrl+C) or simply restart the
device to reset it to the default
configuration.

TD-1
0

My device turns off
after

being

disconnected

for

a

while despite battery
being fully or partially
charged.

Record

offline

mode

is

meaningless

for

devices

without flash memory. So,
after being advertising for a
while and not being able to
connect, the device will turn
off.

Explore advertises for 4 minutes
after startup or if disconnected
from a device and attempting to
reconnect. Make sure to connect
your device to a host machine
within that time span.
