ABOUT THE WIRELESS G-FORCE SNAPSHOT SENSOR The GEN 2 Wireless Accelerometer - G-Force Snapshot Sensor is a digital, low-power, low- profile, capacitive sensor that can measure acceleration on three axes to determine inclination. • Takes 3-axis g-force measurements • 4096 count/g sensitivity The GEN 2 Wireless Accelerometers - G-Force Snapshot Sensor Accelerometer activates at a set time interval (defined by user) and measures g-force along X, Y and Z axes.
ORDER OF OPERATIONS It is important to understand the order of operations for activating your sensor. If performed out of sequence, your sensor may have trouble communicating with Scigiene Premiere. Please perform the steps below in the order indicated to make sure you are performing your set-up correctly.
III. SETUP AND INSTALLATION If this is your first time using the Scigiene Premiere online portal, you will need to create a new account. If you have already created an account, start by logging in. For instructions on how to register and setup your Scigiene Premiere account, please consult the Scigiene Premiere User Guide.

STEP 3: VALIDATION Check your signal. See Figure 4. The validation checklist will help you ensure your sensor is communicating with the gateway properly and you have a strong signal. Checkpoint 4 will only complete when your sensor achieves a solid connection to the gateway.
SETTING UP YOUR G-FORCE SNAPSHOT SENSOR When you are finished adding the sensor to your account, the next step is to insert the battery. The type of battery you use will depend on the category of your sensor. Gen 2 Wireless G-Force Snapshot Sensors will either be powered by commercial coin cell, AA, or an industrial battery.
Complete the process by opening up Scigiene Premiere and selecting Sensors from the main navigation menu. Verify that Scigiene Premiere is showing the sensor has a full battery level. Industrial Batteries 3.6V Lithium batteries for the Industrial Wireless G-Force Snapshot Sensor is supplied by Scigiene.
ANTENNA ORIENTATION To get the best performance out of your GEN 2 Wireless Sensors, it is important to note proper antenna orientation and sensor positioning. Antennas should all be oriented in the same direction, pointing vertically from the sensor. If the sensor is mounted flat on its back on a horizontal surface, you should bend the antenna as close to the sensor housing as possible giving you the most amount of antenna pointing vertical.
