Important: Read Before Using the Wristband
The wristband is not intended to replace any existing safety requirements or processes
It is an additional layer of protection, intended to alert you to errors or unexpected changes in
your environment
The wristband is analysing the AC waveform and it will not alert for DC voltage
Verify if your wristband is 60Hz vs 50Hz, and ensure that it is appropriate for your environment
Using the Wristband
Use the wristband on the default or other voltage setting for:
● Any environment where the equipment should be de-energized or is presumed to
be electrically safe
● When intending to stay outside of the restricted approach boundary of live
equipment
Mute the wristband or do not wear it for:
● Work on known like sources (live work, testing, and troubleshooting)
● DC equipment
● When not performing work around potentially hazardous sources (home, office, breaks, commuting)
Getting Started
Charging
● A full charge takes approximately 4 hours. The wristband can be charged for
shorter periods mid-shift to increase battery life
● The full charge lasts for 35 hours, depending on usage
● The wristband sits in the charging cradle, which connects to a micro USB
cord
● A solid white light on the charging cradle indicates that the connection is
successful. Flashing indicates that the connection is insecure
● When the battery status light is solid green, the device is fully charged
●Ensure the wristband is decoupled from the charging cradle before use
Battery Status
● The battery status light pulses when the wristband is on. The light
changes colours to indicate battery status:
○ Green: 40-100% battery charge (20+ hours)
○ Amber: 10-30% battery charge (3+ hours)
○ Red: <10% battery charge (<3 hours)

The Mobile App
● Scan the QR code with a mobile device to download the app
● Voltage can work independently from the app but using both in
conjunction is recommended
● Bluetooth must be enabled for the wristband and app to connect
● An internet connection is required for data syncing
ANDROID iOS
Wristband Alerts
● Voltage’s default is set to alert at the appropriate distance
from a 480V source. On this setting, it will emit an initial alert
at the equivalent electrical intensity to 480V at 2ft/60cm
● The wristband does not know the voltage of the equipment or
the distance from the energised source
● The wristband will alert at further distances for higher voltage
equipment and closer distances for lower voltage equipment
● Settings are adjustable in the app
Alert Types
Initial Alert:
● Entering the initial alert zone triggers all of Voltage’s sensory alerts (light, sound,
vibration)
● Alerts increase in rate as the user moves closer to energised device
High Alert:
● The wristband alerts at its highest rate once the user moves closer to the
energised source, into the high alert zone
● Alerts will continue until the wearer moves sufficiently away from the energised
device
● The high alert occurs at the restricted approach boundary of your current setting
Adjusting and Muting Alerts via the App
● Using the app, adjust the wristband alerts as needed for work activity
● Adjust the voltage detection mode when working in different voltage environments
● Mute alerts if you are not around a potential electrical hazard to prevent nuisance alerts
Tap-to-Mute
● When you tap the wristband with an open palm twice in a row, the wristband will
enter a mute state
● It will remain muted for one hour. Double-tap again to unmute the wristband before
the end of the hour
