Functionality

Main Dashboard

The dashboard displays real-time data from your device in an easy-to-read graph. Use the buttons above the graph to switch between core temperature, skin temperature, and heart rate views. (Picture 1)

At the top, you'll see your device's nickname, ID, and battery status.
Click the Settings icon in the top right to adjust device settings or start a new measurement.
At the bottom, toggle between "Live" for real-time data and "History" for previous recordings.

Settings

You will find :

At the very top a textbox that will change the sensor name. (Picture 2)
User Settings: Here you can save the personal settings, which can be used to identify the individual who is wearing the device. (Picture 3)
Alert: Enable an alert for when certain temperature values are reached or exceeded (Picture 4)
A switch option to change the temperature units from Celsius to Fahrenheit
Standby mode switch which can be used to help save a device’s battery :
- If allowed, the sensor automatically stops measuring when no skin contact is detected after about 10 minutes
- If not allowed, the sensor continuously measures

Algo mode: This option allows you to choose between the different algorithm modes. (Picture 5)
- To correctly choose an algorithm, please get in touch with us (info@caleraresarch.com). As the chosen algorithm determines the accuracy of the CBT values, it’s crucial to select the correct one based on your use case.
Heart rate monitor: This menu will help you select and pair/unpair a heart rate monitor from your device. You will need first to scan for the nearby monitors before pairing one. (Picture 6)
Update firmware: With this menu, you will be able to download the latest version of firmware and its algorithm.
