The data is streamed to the tablet during the measurement, for high sampling frequencies
(over 64Hz) and multiple Physilog® the data transfer encounters some delay and
remaining data is transferred after the end of the measurement. Data saved on the tablet
only contains accelerometer and gyroscope data, even if the barometer was turned on. The
original data with all sensors is saved on the Physilog®. During the measurement, the
Physilog®5 blinks green where each blink is made of two short flashes. To stop the
measurement, click on the “Stop measurement” button in the application. In case the
sensors have not sent all data to the tablet during the measurement, they twinkle orange
to show that data transfer is still ongoing. The tablet application shows the percentage of
the file already transferred.

Note: Bluetooth 4.0 or higher is required on the mobile device to be able to communicate
with Physilog®5.

4. Data Analysis
Physilog® always saves raw data on its internal memory, except when streaming the data
live via Bluetooth in the “Data visualizer” part of the app. Users have access to the raw data
through companion software called Research ToolKit (RTK). The RTK is available for
computer (PC and Mac). Functions to read raw data inside MATLAB® are also available.
Please refer to the RTK user manual for more details.

USB data transfer
Data saved on the SD card inside the Physilog® can be accessed using USB data transfer.
Therefore, plug the USB cable to the Physilog® and a computer. The Physilog®5 connects to
the computer almost instantaneously and files can be accessed. One file for each
measurement is created and files are stored in folders depending on creation date. The file
name is composed of a file number (increasing from 001 to 999), the body location (as
defined in the configuration, f.ex. 'LF') and the sensor serial number. Copy-paste the files to
your computer for analysis. From here you can also rename folders and files or delete the
files from Physilog®'s memory.

Warning: Do not remove the conf.bin file which contains the configuration information,
otherwise the Physilog® will not record any data. If this happens, recreate a configuration
using the Research ToolKit or contact Gait Up support.

5. Practical Considerations
5.1 Fixation
The Physilog®5 comes with a fixation clip as default attachment accessory. Additional clips
and elastic straps with Velcro patches to stick onto the Physilog® can be purchased from
Gait Up's online shop (shop.gaitup.com).
