# Recording Your Data: The Daily Routine

## How to record Full-Day and Sleep-Only sessions according to your schedule.

### **Starting a Session**

1. **Check Power:** Ensure the Recorder has been charged for 2 hours. After pressing the button, all four battery lights should be lit.
2. **Pair:** Open the Hexoskin App and verify that the Recorder shows up as connected.
3. **Connect:** Plug the shirt connector in the side pocket into the Recorder.
4. **Check Light:** After 15 seconds, verify that the status light is **Green** (Good Quality). If **Yellow**, check your Shirt fit and verify that there are no obstructions between the sensors and your skin.
5. **Secure:** Slide the Recorder into the pocket loop (lights facing **out**) and zip the pocket.

### **During the Session**

1. **Phone:** Keep your phone nearby to synchronize data.
2. **Breaks:** You can pause for a shower or other activities by unplugging the Recorder and removing the Shirt. Whenever you are ready, put the Shirt on again and connect the Recorder to resume recording.

### **Stopping a Session**

1. Unplug the Recorder.
2. Put the shirt connector back in the pocket.
3. Recharge the Recorder by connecting it to the USB charger.
4. Synchronize the data by keeping the Hexoskin App open and the smartphone within range of the charging Recorder.
