Quick Start

Welcome to Hexoskin. Follow each step before your first recording.

What Is in the Box

If you ordered a kit, you receive:

  • A Hexoskin shirt
  • A Hexoskin device
  • A USB charging cable
  • Elastic bands for the shirt: one for women’s models, two for men’s models

Charge the Device

Your Hexoskin device ships partially charged. Charge it for 2 hours before first use.

Connect the device directly to your computer with the USB cable (avoid USB hubs). The orange LED blinks while the device charges and turns solid orange when charging is complete.

Install Hexoskin OneApp

While the device charges, install Hexoskin OneApp on your phone or tablet, or update it to the latest version.

Open the app and log in, or register. Enter your profile information (height, weight, and so on) so Hexoskin can calculate your data correctly. You can change it at any time in your profile.

Put On the Shirt

  1. Turn the shirt inside out and moisten the three gray electrodes with cream for a good signal.
  2. Use the elastic bands included: one at abdomen level (men and women) and one at thorax level (men only).
  3. Turn the shirt right side out and put it on carefully, without stretching it too hard. Smooth out wrinkles so the fabric stays in contact with the skin.
  4. Connect the device to the shirt connector and place it horizontally in the shirt pocket, wire upward and light outward.

Plugging the shirt into the device turns it on and starts the recording; the middle orange LED stays lit. When you unplug the shirt, recording stops and the device shuts down after 60 seconds.

Care for Your Shirt

Disconnect the device before washing: the shirt is washable, the device is not waterproof. Sync your data and recharge the device each time you take off your Hexoskin.

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

Pair by Bluetooth

Pair your Hexoskin device with Hexoskin OneApp before your first recording. Before you start:

  • Install or update Hexoskin OneApp.
  • Make sure the device is not recording: unplug it from the shirt; the second orange LED is off. It must not be syncing with a computer.
  • Turn on Bluetooth on your phone or tablet.

Your device serial number decides the steps: Hexoskin Smart devices are numbered 42000 to 99999, Hexoskin Classic devices 01000 to 41999.
