How to Pair Bluetooth Heart Rate Monitor with VBOX Video HD2

Biometrics are an increasing element in analysing driver performance. With the Trackr Heart Rate Monitor for HD2 (RLACS227) connected to a VBOX Video HD2 (via Bluetooth),  you can log the driver's heart rate and display it on the video. HD2 has been configured to work specifically with this model of Heart Rate Monitor.

To pair your Heart Rate Monitor with your HD2 unit, you will first need to add a heart rate element in the VBOX Video Setup software. The Bluetooth Heart Rate Monitor should then automatically connect with the HD2 when it is turned on and no other monitor has been connected.

1. Power up VBOX Video HD2.
2. Insert the SD card into a computer and open the VBOX Video Setup software, which can be downloaded here.
3. Add a new scene or select a previously saved scene by selecting the File button.
4. Select the Heart rate element in the scene view and position it where you want the heart rate to be displayed on the screen.
    

5. Save to the SD card.
6. Remove the SD card and insert it into the fully booted VBOX Video HD2.
7. If no other Heart Rate Monitor is paired with the HD2 and the unit is running Firmware Version V1.3.72 or later, the monitor will automatically connect to the unit when turned on.
8. If another heart rate monitor is paired with the HD2, the existing paired monitor will need to be removed in the Camera Preview App.
9. As soon as the heart rate monitor detects contact on the pads, it turns on, and a blue LED will flash slowly to indicate that it is awake and searching. 
   
   Note: For accurate readings, moisture is needed on the pads. Conductive gel works well, along with sweat. If the contact between the pads and skin isn’t good enough, the readings can be inaccurate and slow to update.
    
10. The blue LED will become solid to indicate that it is paired with the HD2.

You can find more information about the Trackr Heart Rate Monitor in the Manufacturer's user manual.

If, for some reason, the Heart Rate Monitor does not automatically connect with the HD2 unit, you can install a pairing file in the HD2 using the method below:

• Once the scene has loaded, remove the card and upload the Bluetooth pairing file onto it.
• Insert the card into the HD2, and within a few seconds, the HD2 will beep and the OK light will slowly flash orange.
• Power cycle the unit.
