Charge your product

Before using your product for the first time, make sure the
battery is fully charged. Charging takes approximately 1.5 to

2.5 hours. A full charge lasts about 36 hours.

Caution: Do not attach the charging cradle when the PS-100 is
wet. If the PS-100 is wet, wipe it with a damp cloth, remove the
moisture with a towel, then let it air dry before attaching the
charging cradle.

1. Center the PS-100 under the large tab, then press down
until it clicks into place.

2. Insert the USB plug into a power source. You can use:

■ Computer (USB is for charging only, not for data

transfer)

■ Optional USB AC Adapter (part number SFAC04)

The orange LED lights up when your PS-100 is connected
correctly. Charging is complete when the blue LED is lit.

Keep these tips in mind when wearing your PS-100:

■ The Pulsense band needs to be worn snugly around the

wrist to collect more accurate heart rate data. This may
cause a slight impression on the wrist. Adjust the band for
the comfort and performance you choose.

■ When wearing the PS-100, make sure it does not touch

the ulna bone.

Launch the app and pair your PS-100

You must pair your PS-100 through the Epson PULSENSE
View app. The PS-100 will not store any data until you’ve
paired it with the app.

Follow these steps:

1. Start the Epson PULSENSE View app.

2. Make sure that the PS-100 is within 3 feet (1 meter) of the
mobile device.

■ For greater accuracy, wear the Pulsense band on your

non-dominant wrist.

■ Before boarding an aircraft, put your PS-100 in airplane

mode by repeatedly tapping the top of the band.

Calibrating your heart rate

To personalize your heart rate zones and calibrate the sleep
monitoring feature, wear your PS-100 for 2 to 7 days while
you sleep. The accuracy of your heart rate zone and sleep data
will improve after the PS-100 has calibrated your resting heart
rate.

Using PULSENSE View

You can view live and collected data, such as heart rate, steps,
calories, and sleep, from your PS-100 using the PULSENSE
View mobile app.
