Charge Device

Secure the sensor into the cradle and connect USB to computer or other power source. Charging time is 1 hr to 90% battery and 3 hrs to 100%. 

Configure Sensor

The BioHarness configured is to log and transmit data simultaneously. Logging format and other modes can be set using the Zephyr Cfg Tool located at

C:\Program Files(x86)\Zephyr\OmniSense\Tools

It is important to decide on a log format and other specific device settings in the beginning of setup. The overview of modes are:

  • General: 1 Hz general parameters + 18Hz breathing waveform & heart rate RR
  • General + ECG:: General + 250Hz raw ECG waveform
  • General + Acceleration General + 100Hz Activity level (accelerometer magnitude) 
  • Summary: An extended General log containing additional parameters (Default)
  • Summary + Waveform: Summary + 250Hz ECG + 100Hz accelerometer
  • Summary + Development Summary + 1KHz ECG + 100Hz accelerometer

The details of the log formats can be found in the manuals, specifically starting on page 161 in the OmniSense? Live Help BioHarness can be configured to a number of different log formats. These are set using the Zephyr Cfg Tool, selecting the device, and using the drop down "log format" menu under the User Config tab.
