StepTrakLite™: Twitter

1. You can now Twitter your current step counts and activity data. Just select the Tweet tab.
   
   

2. A simple, pre-formatted message is provided. You can select one of three different types using the segmented controller at the bottom.
   
   

3. A personalized message can also be appended. Challenge your friends! Taunt your enemies!
   
   

4. When you are done, just click the "Send" button to transmit.
   
   

StepTrakLite™: MapMyWalk Logging

1. You can now log your data online using MapMyWalk.com. Just select the Log tab.
   
   

2. A summary of the information to be transmitted is shown at the bottom of the screen.

StepTrakLite™: Settings

1. If, after some use, you are not satisfied with the step counting or classification, you can try adjusting the settings.
   
   

2. If you are seeing too many or too few steps, try adjusting the Count Sensitivity slider.
   
   

3. If you are seeing running steps when you are walking (or vice-versa), try adjusting the Classification Bias slider.
   
   

4. The two sliders are independent, so each setting can be adjusted and tested without affecting the other.

5. Before using the Twitter functionality, make sure you input your username and password.
