Your Activity In A Flash

Understanding Your Heart Rate Readings

Relax › Below 50% of your maximum heart rate
Warm Up › Between 50% to 63.9% of your maximum heart rate
Fat Burn › Between 64% to 69.9% of your maximum heart rate
Cardio › Between 70% to 79.9% of your maximum heart rate
Intense › Between 80% to 89.9% of your maximum heart rate
Max › Greater than 90% of your maximum heart rate

To find out your maximum heart rate, the number can be estimated using the common formula of deducting your current age from 220. For example, a 30 year- old will have an estimated maximum heart rate of 190 (220 – 30). For more information on HR zones, go to www.actxa.com/spark- plus.

Heart Rate

How does Spark+ track my heart rate?

Spark+ has PPG (photoplethysmogram) sensors which use high- intensity green light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and photodetectors that provide reliable monitoring of the pulse rate in a non-invasive manner.

How accurate is Spark+’s heart rate technology?

Spark+ is designed as a simple and non-intrusive device to help every individual measure and monitor their heart rate readings while doing their everyday workout.

It is not catered for experienced athletes who require accuracy in a beat-by- beat basis, which can only be obtained by electrocardiography (ECG) sensors.

To improve the accuracy of your heart rate readings, you are advised to wear the Actxa Spark+ approximately one finger-width away from your wrist bone, and ensure the buckle is secured for a tight, but breathable fit.

What does the “target heart rate zones” in my activity report mean?

The different heart rate zones tells you that your body is working at the zones which has different benefits specific to it unless your workout consists of using more than 1 heart rate zone.

Max HR zone (90 – 100%): Training in this zone requires you to be working out in a very high intensity. It is not sustainable for long periods of time and unsuitable for first-timers. After a workout in this zone, you should get a good recovery before the next workout session to avoid fatigue and injuries. Train in this zone to improve your performance and maximal speed.

Intense zone (80 – 89.9%): Training in this zone is a good and fast way of getting fit. If you wish to improve strength and speed endurance, you should aim to achieve this zone.

Cardio zone (70 – 79.9%): You should be able to sustain in this zone for a longer duration. You may be breathless at times but it gives you the most health benefits especially for those who are just starting to exercise.

Fat Burn zone (60 – 69.9%): You are able to burn the most total body fat by training in this zone but you have to workout for long duration about 30-60 mins or more. It varies between individuals due to type of training, food intake, genetics and etc.

Warm-up zone (50 – 59.9%): This zone is suitable before starting a workout whereby it involves the body to get used to the environment and get ready like an engine revving up. Do incorporate dynamic stretching to avoid getting any injuries during the session itself – it is like stretching a cold band which will break!

Relax zone(< 50%): Being in this zone means that your body is slowly getting into its normal state whereby it is rested after a hard workout. Don’t forget to stretch to reduce muscle soreness, improves the body recovery as well as blood circulation in the body.

Disclaimer: Consult your doctor/physiotherapist/certified coaches for more details regarding your fitness training plans.

What is the recommended duration which I should train in each zone to be healthy?

According to Health Promotion Board (HPB), every individual is recommended to accumulate 150 minutes of moderate intensity (60 – 69.9%) or 75 minutes of high intensity (80-89.9%) aerobic exercise per week.
Health benefits of regular physical activity include a 20 – 50% reduced risk of premature death, incidence of coronary heart disease, type 2 diabetes, depression, stroke, high blood pressure, colon cancer and breast cancer, to name just a few.

Low battery
If your tracker’s battery level falls below 2 bars, you will be unable to get into HR monitoring mode.
Please charge your tracker for at least 2 hours before trying again.

Tracker not worn tightly
If your tracker is prompting you to wear tightly, that means that your tracker is worn too loosely.

Activity

How can I track if I’ve hit my daily goal for my fitness activities?

On your Spark+, you will be able to view your real time activity statistics for the day.

Your Spark+ will vibrate the moment you achieve your goal.
Subsequently, a star icon will be shown on each of the achieved activity screens.

If you have synced your Spark+ with the Actxa app, you will be able to see your daily progress on the Dashboard.
For tracking of your daily, weekly and monthly progress, view it on the History page.

I feel that my activity tracking is inaccurate. What should I do?

There might be a few reasons why you are unable to track your heart rate.

Inaccurate Stride Length
The default stride length used to calculate your steps count or distance is 70 cm.
You may alter your stride length on the Profile page via the Actxa app.

Wrist You Wear
You are advised to wear your tracker on your non-dominant hand.
However, if you feel that it is not sensitive enough, wear it on your dominant hand instead.

Excessive Arm Movements
If you perform activities that require more arm movements (such as cooking), more steps will be accumulated unintentionally. Before you perform such activities, you may remove your tracker to prevent any discrepancies.

Why are there no activity logs on my Spark+ after 12 midnight?

All activity data will be saved and reset at 12 midnight everyday.
You may check your previous day logs in the History tab via the Actxa app.

Sleep

How does Spark+ track my sleep quality?

Spark+ uses a built-in 3-axis accelerometer to track your sleep through movements.
The greater the amount of movements detected means the more restless your sleep is.
Your sleep duration should be at least 1 hour for the tracker to accurately depict your sleep quality.

To track your sleep automatically:
1. Launch the Actxa app.
2. Go to “Devices”.
3. Tap “Auto-Sleep”. Enable it.

6. You will be able to analyse your “Sleep Quality” for your previous sleep.

Note: Your steps, calories burned, active time and distance travelled during this period of time will not be recorded.

What does my Sleep Quality analysis mean?

Your Sleep Quality analysis report will be tabulated into easy-to-read graphs after you end your sleep.
An average adult is recommended to sleep for 7 to 9 hours.

You should be able to view the following statistics:
– Sleep Time and Awake Time
– Total Sleep Duration
– Time Taken To Sleep
– Sleep Efficiency
– Duration in the 3 different sleep states (Deep / Light / Restless)

Analyse your sleep quality to know how well you’ve slept or if you had sufficient rest.
Track your sleep regularly for a more consistent analysis.

Can Spark+ automatically track my sleep quality? If yes, how?

Yes, Spark+ is able to track your sleep automatically by detecting your movements with the built-in 3-axis accelerometer.

By analysing the duration and intensity of your movements, the tracker will be able to differentiate when you are sleeping and when you are awake.

If you keep still for long periods of time, it may be possible that the tracker will assume that you are asleep. You may go to the Sleep Summary page and swipe to delete the unwanted sleep record.

To track your sleep automatically:
1. Launch the Actxa app.
2. Go to “Devices”.

Can I pair my Spark+ with more than 1 mobile device (e.g. tablet)?

Each tracker can only be paired to 1 Actxa account with 1 mobile device.
If you wish to use the same Actxa account but pair your tracker with another mobile device, your original mobile device will be unpaired the moment you pair with the second mobile device.
Subsequently, you have to restart the pairing process if you wish to use your original mobile device again.

Can I pair more than 1 activity tracker with my Actxa account?

Each Actxa account is only allowed to be paired with 1 activity tracker.
However, if you own a Sense smart scale too, you can pair that smart scale with the same Actxa account.

The Actxa app requires internet connection (data plan or Wi-Fi connection) to register an Actxa account, create your user profile and save your activity data. The app does not require an internet connection to sync your activity tracker to your smartphone as it uses Bluetooth® technology. However, internet connection is required for the activity data to be sent and saved onto our internet server.
