need to achieve Bluetooth pairing with the device first and also get a
good EEG signal with the MindWave. These icons show the status of
your connection in the upper right hand corner of most NeuroSky apps.
Quick Fixes & Older Icons If your device is properly paired and
there is a fresh battery in the headset, try these tips to help ensure
good EEG connection. Older applications may use the signal status
icons below.
