If you have opted for wireless data transfer via WLAN, please plug the WLAN stick supplied into a free USB port on your PC. If your PC already has a WLAN interface, you can use the internal WLAN interface on your laptop. In this case, however, please note that you can only connect to one WLAN network at a time. The connection to your company WLAN would therefore be disconnected for the duration of the measurement, for example.

The pressure measuring plate does not have an integrated rechargeable battery. Ensure that the plate is powered by connecting the enclosed USB cable and adapter to a nearby power socket. Alternatively, you can also use a power bank as a power source.

The plate is now switched on and the LED on the top of the housing lights up. To start a measurement, you must first connect to the WLAN of the hard disk. The WLAN name corresponds to the serial number of your hard disk The WLAN is open and therefore has no password. It is advisable to activate the automatic connection.

Before the pressure measuring plate can be used for the first time and after each new calibration, the user is obliged to download the latest calibration file. Instructions for this are described in the following chapter: 1.3 Calibration cycles.

Now open the already installed GP Manager and start a measurement in the GP foot pressure module.
