INTRODUCION
The KITRIS KIT has been developed as a tennis-specific data tracker. It
enables you to collect important data on your performance behaviour when
playing in competitions, training matches and training sessions. An analysis
of the data enables both you and your coaches to train in a more effective
and goal-oriented way.
As the recording of matches can be made either by the player himself by
means of a Player KIT or by an external third party by means of a Coach KIT,
we will distinguish between a Player KIT and a Coach KIT in the present user
manual.
There are 3 different modes for recording match data:
1. ‘Self-Scoring’mode (only Player KIT): Comprehensive autonomous
recording of all data by the player himself by means of the Player
KIT.
2. ‘Coach-Scoring’mode (Player KIT and Coach KIT): Input of results
performed by an external third party by means of the Coach KIT,
strike data is gathered by the player himself by means of the Player
KIT.
3. ‘Match-Tracking’mode (only Coach KIT): Both strike data and
results are entered by an external third party by means of the
Coach KIT.
While the system calculates comprehensive statistic values independently
by using sensor data, mathematic algorithms and logics, evaluation of
points won and points lost can only be made by the players themselves or
by an external third party by passing information on to the KIT. As a result,
correct point input in a match (according to official ITF tennis regulations)
after completed rallies is an essential part of the KITRIS Tennis analysis and
training system. The topic is therefore dealt with in appropriate depth in the
present user manual.
After terminating a match or a training session, you can upload data from
the KIT to the KITRIS Server for analysis and statistic evaluation. Via the
KITRIS Webclient, you will gain access to all match and training sessions.
This enables you to analyse and compare the sessions retrospectively.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
HOW TO FASTEN, UNDO AND ADJUST THE STRAP
To ensure good data quality, wear the Player KIT on your striking arm only.
The KIT strap consists of an elastic textile material with a Velcro enabling
you to easily fasten, undo and adjust the strap.
To fasten the strap to the KIT, lead the end of the strap through one of the
buckles from below paying attention that the hooks of the Velcro are
pointing away from the KIT. Next, fasten the hooks of Velcro on the inner
side of the strap. Repeat this process by fastening the other end of the strap
to the second buckle. As soon as the strap is correctly fastened to the KIT,
you can adjust it in a simple way by removing the Velcro from the inner side
of the strap and fastening it again after completing adjustment of the
length.

GENERAL SETTINGS (PLAYER KIT/COACH KIT)
SLEEP MODE
If the KIT is not used for a certain length of time (10 seconds), the device
turns to sleep mode and subsequently switches off the display to reduce
battery consumption. If no further activities are recorded for some minutes,
the KIT automatically switches off completely.
If the KIT is in its sleep mode or is switched off completely, you can
reactivate it by pressing the On/Off button (‘X’). The KIT then starts in its lock
mode indicating the current time and date on the display.
LOCK MODE
The lock symbol is located in the top right corner of the display beside the
battery symbol. You can unlock the KIT by keeping the OK button pressed
for at least 2 seconds. If you have reactivated the KIT but not unlocked it
within 10 seconds, the KIT automatically turns back to sleep mode. If you
have reactivated and unlocked the KIT, the previously selected mode is
displayed on the monitor.
In the match mode, you can also reactivate the KIT from its sleep mode by a
motion-controlled point input (only Player KIT) or by pressing any button.
