HOW DO I USE IT?
Plug it into your computer’s USB
port and keep it there. Do not use
a USB hub as this may interfere with
the module’s functionality.
!
HOW DO I GET MORE?
If you have more than one Windows
computer that you would like to use

modules at [email protected].
!

USING WINDOWS PC WITH YOUR NYMI BAND
WHAT IS A NYMI-COMPATIBLE BLUETOOTH DONGLE?
The BLED112 Bluetooth® Smart Module is the buddy for your
Nymi Band™, if you have a Windows® computer. You need it in
order to use the Windows version of the Nymi Companion or
any Nymi-Enabled Applications.
WHY DO I NEED IT?
The Bluetooth module passes data between your computer and
your Nymi Band, because the default way that Windows handles
Bluetooth does not work well with the Nymi. You need the
module for all Windows computers - regardless of whether or
not it already has Bluetooth. Bluegiga’s BLED112 Bluetooth Smart
Module is the only dongle that is Nymi-compatible.

MY NYMI BAND™ IS NOT CHARGING
Refer to the diagram in “Charging my Nymi Band” on page 12 for
the proper orientation of the charger. Plug the USB end of the
charging cable into a wall charger or a computer that is turned
on. If you do not see the lights on your Nymi Band light up after
30 seconds, you may have the charger on backwards, or the
charger is not making full contact with the pins.
NYMI COMPANION IS NOT FINDING MY NYMI BAND
The Nymi Companion can only nd Nymi Bands that you are
wearing on your wrist. Also make sure your Bluetooth is enabled
on your device. If the Nymi Companion does not nd your Nymi
Band, unclasp and reclasp it. You should see that the Nymi Band
is in search mode when there is one light running back and forth
on the Nymi Core. Please also ensure that you’ve charged the
Nymi Band for at least 30 minutes.
HOW DO I TURN MY NYMI BAND ON?
When you clasp the Nymi Band onto your wrist, you should see
one or more lights appear. This means that the Nymi band has
been connected properly and is sending information through
Bluetooth®. However, Nymi-Enabled Applications will not be
able to recognize your Nymi Band until you’ve activated your
band with the Nymi Companion.
You have to activate your Nymi Band every time you put it on.
That is how the Applications know who you are. If you do not
see any lights appear when you put on your Nymi Band, ensure
that it is charged. Next, ensure that you’ve properly clasped your
Nymi Band. There should not be any space between the core and
the band when the clasp is closed.
