Every Enode sensor works with either of our apps. Which one you install depends on who you are training, so start there, then set the sensor up once and it works the same way in both.
Which app do I need?
| Enode One | Enode Pro | |
|---|---|---|
| Who it is for | Individual athletes training themselves | Coaches, teams, universities and facilities training other people |
| Devices | iPhone, with an Apple Watch app | iPhone, iPad, Android phones and tablets, and a web version |
| You get | Your own training, your own history, guidance on the wrist | Multiple athletes, session planning, roles for your staff, and The Portal at portal.enode.ai for planning and analysis on the web |
| Sign up | In the app | In the app or at portal.enode.ai, with an organisation name |
The short version. Training yourself, install Enode One. Training anyone else, or working as part of a coaching staff, install Enode Pro. If you use an Android phone, Enode Pro is your app.
Two situations worth knowing about. An athlete who belongs to a coach's organisation uses Enode Pro, not One, because their coach's programme lives there. And if you already have an older Enode account, do not create a new one: see Switching to the new Enode Pro.
Before you start with the sensor
The sensor is designed to work without the barbell strap, but we recommend always using the strap. It helps the measurement behave consistently, and it stops the sensor detaching from the equipment unintentionally.
Download the app and create your account
- Install the app. Download Enode One or Enode Pro from your device's app store, following the table above. If you already have an account, sign in with the same email address rather than creating a second one.
- Start your account. Enter your email address. Enode Pro also asks for an organisation name, since a Pro account holds a whole coaching setup rather than one person.
- Enter the one-time code. We email you a code, sometimes called an OTP. Type it in to finish setting the account up. There is no password to choose or remember, on any Enode app.
- Open the app and sign in. You land on your training.
- Allow Bluetooth and location. Both need to be enabled for the Enode app. Bluetooth is how the sensor connects, and phone operating systems require location permission before an app is allowed to search for nearby Bluetooth devices, whether or not the app uses your location.
Switching your sensor on for the first time
Sensors ship switched off, so the first thing to do is put it on charge.
- Connect the sensor to a power source with the included micro USB cable. Insert the cable straight, in the correct orientation, without force.
- The sensor starts flashing continuously, which means it is charging.
- You can disconnect it and use it straight away if you need to.
Handle the charging port carefully. Inserting the cable should never feel difficult. If you feel resistance, stop and check the cable is aligned straight rather than pushing harder. The logo on the cable should be visible from above when it is plugged in. Charge only with a micro USB cable. Do not use Lightning or USB Type-C cables.
What the sensor light means
| Light behaviour | What it means |
|---|---|
| Lights permanently, then turns off | Charging. It goes out when the sensor is fully charged |
| Flashes every 2 seconds | Ready to connect |
| Flashes every 0.75 seconds | Something is wrong. See When a sensor disconnects mid-set |
Connecting the sensor
- Choose Connect sensor in the app. Keep the sensor and your phone or tablet within 10 cm, about 4 inches, of each other while they find one another.
- The app may ask you to calibrate. Rest the sensor on each of its six sides for one to two seconds, watching the on-screen sensor until each marker disappears.
- The sensor is connected and ready to use.
Once a sensor has been connected on a device, it reconnects on its own next time.
