DURING SESSION WORKFLOW
Using Your Pods
- How to turn the Pod on/off and LED light knowledge - Pod Light Indicators
Tips
- Ensure the Pod is correctly inserted into your vest - i.e. the logo faces you and is the right way up.
- Allow a few minutes for the GPS to lock onto satellites - when it does, you will see all three LED lights flash green. Note: this might take several minutes if you are using your pod for the first time.
- The pod needs to be turned on and have been connected to satellites for at least 5 minutes in order to constitute a 'real', downloadable session.
- After the session, to turn off the pod hold the power button for 5 seconds until the right light flashes. There will be no lights when the pod has been turned off.

POST-SESSION WORKFLOW
Syncing Data and Session Setup
The video below explains how to sync the data to the cloud, set up a session, add tags to a session, set the pitch, create splits and reassign pods to other users.
For more information on each of the topics covered, please see the guides below

- Setting Up a Session
- PlayerTek Tags
- Creating Splits
- How to Reassign Session
Tips
- Manage friendly numbers, a single or double digit number on each device, which differentiate each pod. Edit them to your chosen numbers in the Sync Tool - make a spreadsheet and assign one pod per player. This will help to ensure that players are using the same pod during their activities.
- Sync maximum of one case or 10 pods at a time to avoid overloading your computer.
