Click here for a printable one-pager to help BAND V2 end-users.
What is a BAND V2?
The BAND V2 prevents heat stress and overexertion iniuries. It is a wearable that measures core body temperature as well as other exertional limit values. It will alert when exertional thresholds have been surpassed and if enabled and available, send your location via GPS.
How to Use the Device
Simply place the wearable on your upper arm so that the sensor is directly touching skin and tighten the elastic strap so that it is comfortable but not loose. Try to avoid placing the sensor over tattoos, if possible.
What do the Vibrations Mean?
Vibration Pattern | Meaning |
1 Short Vibration | The BAND V2 is being worn |
3 Short Vibrations | You have triggered a low-severity alert |
4 Short Vibrations | You have triggered a high-severity alert |
2 Short Vibrations | You are clear to return-to-work |
5 Heart Beat Pulses | (If enabled) Low battery |
5 Long Vibrations | Hardware error, device may be broken. These errors are not common and are very noticeable — the vibrations last significantly longer than high-severity alerts. |

No Movement Alert (if enabled):
If your BAND V2 does not register any movement for a long period of time, it will trigger a No Movement Alert. Before the alert is triggered, there will be a warning vibration 30 seconds and 10 seconds before. For more, view this support article.
TapAlert (if enabled):
While wearing a BAND V2, you can trigger an SOS TapAlert by using the palm of your hand to double-tap the face of the BAND V2 holding your hand against it for 3 seconds. For more, view this support article.
Low Battery Notification (if enabled):
If you are wearing a BAND V2 and the battery drops below the Low Battery threshold (as set by an admin), then the BAND V2 will flash blue LEDs and emit 5 haptic feedback pulses in a heartbeat pattern.
