Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How does it recognise my breathing pattern?
A. You wear a chest strap with a sensor. The sensor detects movement in your chest and recognises a
breath in and a breath out. You also wear earphones through which you be able to hear music and
the guiding voice.
Q. What if the device can’t detect my breathing?
A. This could be due to clothing or the positioning of the chest strap. Restrictive clothing may disrupt
the signal and should be removed. Check that the positioning of the chest strap is correct. Sit
comfortably on a chair, lean back and place your right hand on the right side of your chest. Place
your left hand on the upper abdomen, above the navel. Take a few breaths. Feel which hand moves
first when you start to inhale and exhale. The sensor position is determined by which hand moves
first. Place the sensor accordingly.
Q. Is there a way of knowing if the sensor is detecting my breathing?
A. The breathing indication fills up with bars on a breath in and empties on a breath out.
Q. Do I need to totally fill the moving bars on a breath in and empty the bars on a breath out?
A. No. The system will not need you to do this.
