Programming the Monitor...

There are two ways to program the StepWatch to record data:

  1. Easy Start (also called "Regular Start" or just "Start") is accessed through the "Start Recording Activity" command in the Monitors menu. This option provides enough flexibility to set up the StepWatch appropriately for most clients and applications while protecting you from unexpected results. You control the StepWatch settings indirectly by describing the gait characteristics of your client. We recommend you use this method unless you have an unusual application.
  2. Advanced Programming is accessed through the Utilities options in the Monitors menu. This mode allows direct access to all the StepWatch settings. Use this option only if you have thoroughly familiarized yourself with the settings.
  3. When you have the program running DO NOT PLUG-IN OR UNPLUG THE DOCK.

    With a System 3 Dock there are lights that tell you what the dock is doing:

    A fading blue light - The dock is plugged into the computer and has power. It is o.k. to unplug the dock when the light is like this but not during any other light condition.

    A steady blue light - The program is running and is aware that the dock is there.

    A red light - There is a monitor in the dock and the dock is communicating with it. DO NOT REMOVE THE MONITOR.

    A green light - It is OK to remove a monitor that is on the dock and the dock is communicating through the correct communications port with the program.

    Red and Blue lights both flashing - Error
