    The orange led will blink while the device charges. You will know that charging is over when the led turns solid orange.

          Hexoskin App & Account

          While your device is charging, we recommend that you download the Hexoskin app to your iOS or Android device, smartphone or tablet. If you had already downloaded it previously, make sure that you have the latest update.

          - Download Hexoskin Application for iOS
          - Download Hexoskin Application for Android

          Once downloaded, launch the app and click on "Log In.” If you haven't created an account yet, you can click on "Register" and follow the steps in the app. Make sure to enter your profile information (height, weight, etc.) so that Hexoskin can calculate your data correctly. You can always change this information in your profile.

           

          How to use the Hexoskin Smart Shirt

          1. Turn the shirt inside out and moisten the three gray electrodes with water, gel, or cream. This will ensure a good signal for recording. 
          2. For a better signal acquisition, use the elastic band(s) included. One should be around the abdomen level (men and women) and the other one on the thorax level (men only).
          3. Turn the shirt right side out and put it on carefully. Be careful not to stretch it too hard. Prevent wrinkles to ensure that the fabric has a good contact with the skin. See the online instruction videos for a few tips on wearing and removing the Hexoskin Smart Shirts.
          4. Connect the Hexoskin device to the shirt connector. Put the Hexoskin device horizontally into the shirt pocket with the wire upward and the light outward.

            You're now all set to use your Hexoskin. Plugging your shirt into your Hexoskin device automatically turns it on and starts recording your data, as shown by the middle orange LED being continuously lit. As soon as you unplug your shirt, data stops recording and the device automatically shuts down after 60 seconds.

            Care Instructions

            Don't forget to disconnect your Hexoskin device before washing your Hexoskin Shirt! The Hexoskin Smart Shirt is washable, but the device is not waterproof. As a reminder, try to connect your device to your computer to sync your data and recharge your battery every time you remove your Hexoskin.

            As with any garment, the Hexoskin Smart Shirt requires some care.

            1. Before washing, remove the Hexoskin device and put the wire connector back into the zipped pocket to protect it
            2. Use the Delicate cycle with cold water
            3. Hang to dry. The Hexoskin shirt does not go in the dryer
            4. Avoid twisting the fabric. This could damage the textile sensors.

              Follow the instructions displayed in the app to pair your Hexoskin device with your phone. You can also visit our support page with step by step guide to pair the Hexoskin Classic or Hexoskin Smart with your smartphone.
