Using uMyo with dry electrodes and bracelet

  1. Attach dry electrodes to uMyo, if they aren’t attached already, into two holes on the PCB (screws and flat bolts), flat bolt on the bottom. You can press the screw to the top of PCB while fastening the bottom part or use screwdriver.
  2. Pass one end of bracelet through the loop in the PCB and fix it with Velcro. The soft part of the Velcro should be up. Pass the other end of the bracelet through the second loop.
  3. Place the bracelet on your arm and find the required active muscle by moving your fingers or squeezing your hand.
  4. After finding the required active muscle, position uMyo over it and tighten the bracelet so bolts are in tight contact with skin. Close the bracelet with Velcro.
  5. Check if the current position is optimal by contracting the active muscle several times. The muscle activity LED should glow: this shows that uMyo is reacting to your actions.
