Before starting a session with the B1 unit, proper setup is critical to ensure accurate data collection and avoid interruptions. Below are the most common setup mistakes and how to prevent them.
- Skipping Calibration
- Failing to calibrate for pitching or hitting can result in inaccurate or missing data.
- Best Practice: Always complete the appropriate calibration before starting a session.
- Poor Wi-Fi Connection
- Unstable or incorrect Wi-Fi connection between the iPad and the B1 unit can prevent data from displaying.
- Best Practice: Ensure the iPad is connected to the correct B1 Wi-Fi network before starting.
- Incorrect Session Setup
- Starting a session with incorrect settings (e.g., wrong player, environment, or mode) can affect data tracking and reporting.
- Best Practice: Verify all session settings before beginning.
- Ignoring LED Indicators
- LED lights provide important system status information. Ignoring them may lead to starting a session when the unit is not ready.
- Best Practice: Check LED indicators to confirm the unit is powered, connected, and ready.
- Not Verifying System Readiness
- Starting a session without confirming the system is fully operational can result in missing or incomplete data.
- Best Practice: Confirm connection, calibration, and system status before starting.
Proper setup ensures reliable data collection and prevents common issues such as missing data, reduced confidence, or session interruptions.
