User Manual
Model TT-100
Important: Read instructions carefully before use.
High, prolonged fever requires medical attention.
If symptoms persist, contact your healthcare provider.
Warnings and Precautions
When using this product always follow these basic safety precautions to insure that the patch accurately
reads temperature and to avoid skin irritation. Failure to follow these precautions could result in
inaccurate temperature readings resulting in delay in treatment, or could result in skin irritation and
mild discomfort.
DO NOT use the patch for any other purpose besides measuring human body temperature.
DO NOT place the patch over wounds, sores or abrasions.
DO NOT excessively bend or twist the TempTraq patch.
DO NOT immerse the patch in water. Patch may be removed for a bath or shower and
then re-applied afterwards.
DO NOT use the patch if it has been damaged or immersed in water.
DO NOT attempt to take apart the patch; there are no user serviceable parts.
DO NOT wear successive patches under the same arm. When removing one patch and
starting another, place the second patch on the other side of the body.
Patch adhesive may irritate sensitive skin. Contact your doctor if irritation persists.
Clinical Temperature Information
Normal body temperature is not a single temperature, but a range of temperatures
influenced by age, time of day, and measurement site. We recommend that you
take the temperatures of your family members when they are well to establish their
normal body temperature. Many people may not have an elevated temperature
when they are sick. These include, but are not limited to, infants under 90 days
old, people on steroids, antibiotics or antipyretics (acetaminophen, ibuprofen, and
aspirin), people with compromised immune systems (including the elderly and those
having HIV/AIDS). See your doctor if you feel someone is ill even if their temperature
is not elevated.
A doctor should be consulted in the following situations where fever is present:
vomiting, diarrhea, changes in appetite, activity or breathing, or with children who
are irritable, lethargic or unusually sleepy.

damages, so the above exclusion and limitations may not apply to you.
Patch may not be activated. Press button on patch to activate.
Move the smart device running the TempTraq app closer to the patch.
The patch can send temperature data up to 40ft. This distance is re-
duced by walls and objects between the patch and the smart device.
For iOS devices, the app must be open and visible on screen to receive
data from the patch.
Check to make sure that the patch is properly positioned with the
sensor - marked "underarm" - correctly positioned in the armpit as
shown in the instructions for use.
Lower than expected temperature readings can also be caused by
exposure to cold ambient temperatures, for example, when the arm is
raised exposing the patch to cold ambient temperatures.
Confirm the patch is correctly reading temperature by measuring oral
temperature with a digital thermometer.
Confirm the patch is correctly reading temperature by measuring oral
temperature with a digital thermometer.
Check to insure that the phone volume is set to an audible level and is
not set to mute.
Check settings for the app to insure that notifications are enabled and
sound is enabled for notifications.
Note that the audible alert only sounds for a short period. The visual
notification remains active in the app until canceled by the user.
Check to make sure that the smart device running the app is in range
of the patch. A temperature alert will not be generated if the smart
device is out of range of the patch.
Check to insure that the app is running. No alerts will be generated if
the app is not running.
Patch is not functioning correctly and needs to be replaced. Follow on

Introduction to TempTraq®
Welcome to TempTraq ® , continuous temperature monitoring.
This guide is for your benefit to make sure you fully understand how to use the TempTraq®
system. TempTraq® is a Bluetooth
continuous temperature monitor in the form of a one-time
®
use, disposable patch. The patch senses, records and transmits body temperature for 24 hours
via Bluetooth
Version 4.0. Temperature information from the patch is "read" using a smart device
®
Version 4.0 capability running the TempTraq app). TempTraq
(Apple
or Android™ with Bluetooth
®
®
allows your child to rest when they are ill with an elevated temperature. There is no need to disturb
your child to take a temperature measurement so your child can rest and you can have peace of
mind knowing your child's temperature.
Intended Use
The wireless thermometer, model TT-100, is a battery-operated electronic device with an intended
use of measuring human body temperature precisely. This device is single-use and intended for
armpit temperature measurement for persons of all age.
For Best Results
•
Apply the patch to clean dry skin. Deodorant and lotions can reduce adhesion of the
patch.
•
The sensor - marked "underarm" - must be positioned in the center of the armpit.
Wait 3 - 5 minutes for the patch to warm up to body temperature.
•
The arm should be relaxed along your side to enclose the TempTraq sensor in the
armpit. Temperature measurements can be affected by cold ambient temperatures.
•
Temperature data from the patch can be read up to 40 feet away depending upon
objects between the patch and the smart device, and the position of the patch on the
body. For improved performance, move the smart device closer to the patch.
For iOS devices, the TempTraq app must be open and visible on screen to receive
•
temperature data from the patch.
TempTraq Temperature Measurement
TempTraq measures under-the-arm "axillary" temperature and converts this
temperature to display body temperature which is equivalent to a temperature
measurement taken orally.
Fever Guidance
The TempTraq app uses color coding to aid the user:
GREEN
indicates a temperature is in the normal range.
ORANGE
indicates a possible fever of 100.4°F (38.0°C) or higher.
RED
indicates a temperature equal to or higher than the alert
temperature that you selected.
