CH-1015 Switzerland 1 User manual and Outcome parameters PhysiGait Live Thank you for purchasing PhysiGait Live, the easy-to-use system to accurately measure spatio-temporal gait performances in record time. Physilog®5 sensors measure the movement in the field while a dedicated mobile application computes the relevant information to offer immediate results with in-lab precision. This manual introduces how to use the sensors and mobile application to perform gait analysis. Gait Up SA EPFL Innovation Park, Bat C.

PhysiGait Live elements 2. Gait recording with Physilog®5 from tablet – Basics Attach Fix the sensors on the feet/ shoes using the rubber clips or foot attachment straps. Start Select options and start the recording from the application. Sensors shine green and start to blink. Connect Enter login information, go to Gait analysis and select “New measure”. Connect the 2 Physilog® 5 to the application. Walk Wait until the two sensors blink green synchronously and ask the subject to walk according to your protocol. Stop Stop the recording from the application, the LED turns orange and twinkles while sending remaining data to the tablet. Display report Once the files are transferred to the application and from there to the server, the Gait report is available. Gait Up SA EPFL Innovation Park, Bat C.

Recording with Physilog®5 and the PhysiGait Live - details 3.1 Connection to mobile application Each time you open the application from completely closed state you need to connect the two Physilog®5 to the mobile device. Once they are connected you don't need to repeat this procedure when switching between different parts of the application. To connect Physilog®5 to the application for gait analysis, login with your user name (email address) and password and enter the “Gait analysis” functions of the app. Allow Bluetooth to be turned on the device and establish a connection to the internet. There is no need to pair your Physilog® with the tablet prior to Bluetooth communication. Click on the “Available Physilogs” refresh button below the picture of the Physilog®5 on the left of the screen of the application to look for available sensors. Chose two Physilog® from the list and click on the “Connect” button beside the sensor name. The name of the sensor contains the number which is written on the back of the Physilog®5. Troubleshoot: If a sensor is not detected by the tablet, shortly press the main button of the sensor to enter detection mode. If the sensor can still not be connected, check that it has enough battery and is not connected to another mobile device and if necessary ultimately do a reset of the sensor as explained in section 4.4 Troubleshoot. If the sensor has incompatible firmware version for using with the app, the app displays an error message and automatically disconnects from the sensor. If the sensor is blinking after disconnection, you need to do a soft reset of the sensor (see section 4.4 Troubleshoot). Physilog5 user manual explains how to update firmware. When the sensors are connected the button changes to “Disconnect” and a green dot appears besides the sensor name. You can see a battery level estimation for each sensor below the battery symbol and you can check if the sensor is measuring correctly by displaying the raw data inside the Signals Visualizer part of the app. For devices with small screen (such as smart phones), the sensor connection screen is available after clicking on the image of
