If you own a Tracker, your profile section of the dashboard will display the last time the Tracker had

a successful sync, such as Synced Dec 25 at 6:12am.

Below the last time synced, you will see the status of your battery level. This is displayed as High,

Medium, or Low and represents the status of your battery at the time of the last sync.

To change your picture, use the Change profile pic link in the list of links just below your picture.

If you want to use a picture you've already uploaded, click View all pictures, select the picture,

click the gear icon on the top right of the pop-up, and select Set as profile pic.

Editing Your Profile

To edit your profile, click on the Edit profile link on the Dashboard near your picture.

Most of the options are self-explanatory with the following exceptions:

Stride Length (walking) and Running Stride Length are calculated by default based on

your other profile information (but displayed as 0).

If your distance traveled is not close with the default values, you can calculate your stride length

by walking a known distance (like a track) and counting your steps. Most tracks are .25 mile if

you walk on the inside ring.

You can also walk a straight line using a GPS to calculate the distance traveled and your Tracker

to calculate the steps taken over that distance.

To calculate using a treadmill:

Just stand on the treadmill and hold down the button on the Tracker until it says Start.

The Tracker will start counting your steps from 0.

Now start the treadmill going at a normal walking speed (taking normal sized steps, not big

workout steps). The longer you go, the more accurate your stride length will be.

When you've gone far enough (a quarter of a mile should be okay, but the longer the better),

stop the treadmill and check the steps on the Tracker. Make note of the distance traveled on

the treadmill. You can also Stop the recording and the number of steps will be listed as a

recording on your activity page.

Now do the math. There are 5280 feet in a mile and 12 inches in a foot (63360 inches per

mile). So the formula you need for your stride length in inches is:

63360 x Miles / Steps = Stride in inches

To calculate your stride length using a track, do the same as above but press Start when on

the start line and know the distance you are walking/running (or use End_Steps -

Start_Steps).

If you know the distance in feet, then:

12 x Feet / Steps = Stride in inches

Repeat the above for running stride length. Just go your average running speed.

You can disable calorie estimation under the Preferences section (for more information about

calorie estimation, see Activity Section).

Sleep setting is defaulted to normal, which is recommended (for more information, see Sleep

Sensitivity).
