This device is not a medical device and can not be applied to any medical function; This device is designed and intended solely for fitness intended as amateur practice USER MANUAL page 5 CAPITOLO Chapter 1 5 What is a FITNESS bracelet? Basically, a smartband, also known as the FITNESS bracelet, is nothing more than a bracelet designed to track your daily physical activity. In fact, once worn on the wrist, it records all your movements and saves them and then displays them on the smartphone display with the help of a dedicated APP that you can download for free via your device’s store, ANDROID and / or IOS. In order to make the most of a FITNESS bracelet, commonly known as smartband, it is used to connect to a mobile device (SMARTPHONE), which has a large display and a more useful memory to keep track of your movements and all the other measurements. Bluetooth technology is used as a means of communicating information from the FITNESS bracelet to the smartphone and vice versa The connection to and from the smartphone takes place through a dedicated APP, available on ANDROID and APPLE NOTE: ( Apple and Apple logo are a trademark of Apple Inc, registered in the U.S. and other countries. App Store is a trademark of service of Apple Inc.. Google Play and the Google Play logo are trademarks of Google Inc.) USER MANUAL page 6 There are certainly various types of smartband, from the simplest to just counting the steps, the most complex ones, who also take into account burned calories, sleep cycles, read heart rate, and receive notifications (calls, SMS and more) from your smartphone, below a few examples(Some features listed may not be available on all commercial models): • Date and time • Count calories •Pedometer •Distance • Sleep monitoring • Heart rate • Blood pressure (not on BF100HR) • Blood oxygenation (not on BF100HR) How it works steps counter (Pedometer) The operating principle of the pedometer is as follows: The bracelet has incorporated a “gyroscope” inside, when the end user wears the bracelet and starts to move, for example, the gyro vibrates (unknowingly) and generates a waveguide. Several movements will produce different waveforms. An algorithm identifies a specific number by identifying and recognizing the action that generates a fixed waveform; USER MANUAL page 7 Chapter 1 Plus the sw is skilled in recognizing the difference between a real step and for example lifting the arm or arm movement while driving, and the more the result will be accurate (NOTE: These devices are not used for professional sports activities but must be considered useful for purely amateur purposes) Measurement Km routes: The operating principle of Km reading is as follows: The distance traveled is based on the number of steps. The average pitch multiplied by number of steps = distance. The user fill his or her personal data into the smartphone application such as sex, age, height, weight, and more The more data entered are accurate, the more the algorithm will be accurate and will give a better result. This is because the average pitch is very different from person to person, and the above data are identifying the difference. The application’s sw performs a calculation and monitors the KM paths on the bracelet screen if provided on the application itself. USER MANUAL page 8 CAPITOLO CAPITOLO 5 3 Heart Rate Measurement Calculation of heart rate is taking into account the volume of arterial blood, taking advantage of the fact that an increase in heart rate is associated with an increase in blood volume. The technology used by optical sensors used in heart rate FITNESS bracelets is photopletismography (PPG) that records changes in the volume of blood through the skin’s light absorption variations. In other words, light diffuses in tissues differently based on changes in hemodynamic fluxes. The optical sensor consists of 2 LEDs that send light waves to the body. The FITNESS bracelet processor captures the portrayed light and translates it into the heart rate of the person. These values are then sent to the bracelet display (if available ) and to the application installed on the smartphone, where realtime and / or statistical measurements will be highlighted during the day Algorithms can also give more information about consumed calories, blood pressure, and blood oxygenation. NOTE: This device is not a medical device and can not be applied for any medical function, the read values are considered for purely amateur purposes USER MANUAL page 9 Chapter 2 How to wear Open the package and pull out the device and the strap Insert, as per image, the device in the strap Strap USER MANUAL page 10 Device ulnar styloid Wear the FITNESS bracelet near the ulnar styloid (wrist) as shown above Hook the FITNESS bracelet with care not to tighten too much, ensuring air passage, like a normal watch USER MANUAL page 11 CAPITOLO Chapter 3 5 Battery charging In order to recharge the battery of the FITNESS bracelet: • Remove the cuff from the wrist • Use the cable with the clamp in the package and place it on the copper contacts on the rear side (fig1) • The cable must then be connected to a USB charging adapter (NOT in BOX) • you can use the battery charger that you normally use with your smartphone • On the bracelet display, the battery icon starts blinking until the recharge is completed Fig.1 Copper contacts Lithium polymer battery already included in the bracelet; Nonremovable and non-replaceable battery if not at an authorized repair center (go to http://www.nordmende-phones.com/ support Any attempt to remove the battery will invalidate the warranty.
