  • Page 17 6. While getting ready for the measurement, you will probably still be moving around. Any movement, talking, coughing, sneezing or other such activities will disrupt the signal being received from the sensor. Under such a scenario, you will be notified on-screen and through voice guidance (which can be muted).
  • Page 18 9. When the sensor is ready to start a measurement, the Start button will turn green. To begin the measurement, tap Start measuring. The measurement will take approximately 4 minutes. 10. If the signal quality is poor during the measurement, you will be notified both visually and through voice guidance.
  • Page 19 11. If the signal quality is very poor, the measurement will be cancelled and you will be required to start again. This is because a good quality signal is required to complete the sophisticated data analysis performed by Omegawave. 12. You will hear a sound when the measurement is complete. Please ensure that your device’s volume is switched on.
