pairing HRM to android control panel
PREREQUISITE
In order to pair this device, your Android Control panel must be updated to Android 4.4 or greater.
To verify the version of Android software on your control panel press the “Settings/Set-up” icon
from the bottom and select the “Configure your wireless connection” option. Scroll down and
press the “About Tablet” option. Ensure your version of Android is 4.4 or greater. If it is please
proceed to the next steps below.
If it is not 4.4 please refer to the update instructions at www.sunlighten.com/android-update.html.
PAIRING
• Ensure your HRM is properly worn as indicated above in the “How to wear the HRM” section.
• Turn on Bluetooth on your Android Control Panel: On the Android Control Panel press the
“Settings Set-Up” icon and select the “Configure your Wireless Connection” option. Press
the “On/Off” button on the Bluetooth section.
• Pair the HRM - From the Home screen on the Android Control Panel press the blue “Sync”
button in the left hand dial. You should see a dialogue box of “Searching”. Once the HRM is
found you should see a confirmation dialogue box that says “Connected to Device”.
• Your heart rate and calories burned will display in the left hand dial of the home screen.
NOTE: If you are having issues pairing devices go to the “Settings/Set-Up” icon located at
the bottom and select “Configure your wireless connection”. Press the Bluetooth option and
it should automatically search for new devices. After a few seconds it should display your
HRM. Press the name of your HRM to pair. If it doesn’t display your HRM, press the “Search
for Devices” icon in the top right corner. After it is paired you can return to the Home screen
and see your heart rate.

bluetooth signal/battery power
When sending a Bluetooth signal, the HRM is using battery. To save battery, disable the Bluetooth
signal by separating the monitor from both ends of the strap.
REPLACING BATTERY
1. Unscrew the casing (usin a coin works well) and remove the battery from the HRM.
2. Insert the new battery upside down in the casing. Leave it upside down for a few seconds.
3. Flip the battery right-side up to its correct position.
4. Reinstall the battery and screw on the case cover, ensuring to retain the gasket, which keeps
a watertight seal.
CLEANING THE STRAP
We recommend that you regularly wash your strap to keep it in top working condition. Use cool
water and mild soap (such as dish soap or laundry detergent) and rinse again with cool water.
Please air dry the strap! Sunlighten recommends that you air dry the strap after working out. This
will also help keep the strap in good condition.

troubleshooting
HRM NOT SYNCING
Ensure that Bluetooth is enabled on your ACP and you are wearing the HRM properly.
HRM WON’T STAY CONNECTED
If the HRM is having trouble staying connected, the following troubleshooting steps can help you
reset the HRM and/or Android Control Panel and bridge a new connection.
Resetting the Heart Rate Monitor:
• Remove the battery from the monitor.
• Flip the battery upside down and reinstall in casing. Leave it upside down for a few seconds.
• Remove the battery and flip it right-side up to its correct position.
• Reinstall the battery and screw on the case cover.
Bluetooth Connection Factors: If you attempted the troubleshooting steps above and are still
having trouble syncing your HRM, please try some of the troubleshooting steps below.
Moisten the sensor strips
Make sure the electrodes (the smooth portion of the strap) are wet when you place them against
your skin.
Reposition the strap
If the sensor is having trouble getting a strong and consistent read, it may be loose, slipped out
of position or became too dry. Try different positions to determine the location for the best read.
Replace the battery
Depending on your usage level, the battery will eventually fail, and should be replaced with a 2032
lithium coin battery. A failing battery can be indicated by a reading of “0”, a reading that does not
change when it should, or an inability to sync with the app.
7
Wash the strap
Hand wash the strap with cool water and hang to dry. (Do not put the strap in the dryer!) Build-up
of dirt, sweat and oil can cause connection issues.
Avoid disruption from other devices
Pair your HRM at a distance of at least 10 meters from other smart phones. Other Bluetooth
devices may disrupt a connection to your Android Control Panel.
