Navigating the Touchscreen

Your ShotClockr includes a stylus for easy touchscreen operation.
Tip: You’ll get the most accurate button presses using the stylus or any pen with the tip retracted. (Fingertip works too, but a stylus is especially helpful for the smaller on-screen keyboard.)

Mounting Your Device

ShotClockr is designed to mount securely to nearly any sharps container using the included Velcro.
Popular containers:

• Tide Pod jug (clean, empty, label removed): sturdy and cheap
• Ever Ready First Aid Sharps Container, 1 Quart, Split Lid: for a cleaner, medical look.
  Note: ShotClockr has built-in mounting hardware for this specific container. No Velcro needed—just snap on!

2. Enter Settings: Tap MENU.
   Use +Y -Y +M -M etc. to set the year, month, day, hour, minute. Press SAVE to confirm.
3. Set Timezone: Tap TZ in the MENU. Use + or - to cycle through timezone offsets (e.g. UTC-8 to UTC+14).
   Note: If your area observes Daylight Savings Time, adjust the timezone when DST starts or ends.

   The main screen will show your IP address and Time Synced to Internet when successful.

6. Set Dosage (Optional): In MENU, tap DOSAGE. Use + or - to adjust dosage in 0.5 unit steps (0.5 to 99.0 U). Tap SAVE.
7. Ready to Use: Main screen shows time since last injection. Drop a used syringe in to log a shot.

How ShotClockr Works

• Each time you drop a used syringe into the container, the sensor logs the event, updates the timer, and beeps (unless muted).
• You can also manually log an injection by tapping INJECT on the main screen.
• The display always shows “Time Since Shot” and the current date/time (if set).
• If WiFi is connected, the main screen also shows your IP address and whether time is synced to the Internet.

Reminders & Alerts

• Exactly 12 Hours Since Last Shot: Device plays a gentle reminder beep.
• 12 Hours, 10 Minutes Since Last Shot: Device plays a louder alert beep. If WiFi is configured, an email alert is sent to your address.
• Device continues to play the louder alert beep once per minute until a shot is logged.
• All reminders use the time and timezone you set.

Logs: Viewing, Emailing & Clearing

1. View History: Tap MENU then LOGS to view the injection history (date/time + dosage + “Syringe” or “Injection”). Use UP and DOWN to scroll if more than 10 entries.
2. Email the Log: In LOGS, tap EMAIL to send your current log file to your saved email address. Requires WiFi and a valid email set in USER. You’ll see Log sent! on success.
3. Delete Entries: Tap CLEAR in LOGS, then choose:
   • Last — deletes only the most recent entry
   • All — clears the entire log
   • Cancel — exits without deleting

Muting & Screen Timeout

• To mute/unmute beeps, tap MUTE (or UNMUTE) in the MENU.
• To save power and avoid glare, the screen turns off after ~30 seconds of no use in low light; tap, drop in a syringe, or increase room light to wake it.

Setting Dosage

Tap MENU then DOSAGE.
Use + or - to adjust dosage in 0.5 unit steps (0.5 to 99.0 U).
Tap SAVE to confirm.
Dosage is included in log entries for each injection.

Timezone & Daylight Saving Time (DST)

1. From MENU, tap TZ to open timezone settings.
2. Use + or - to select your correct UTC offset (e.g., UTC-6 for US Central Standard Time).
3. Tap SAVE to apply.
4. If WiFi is active, the device will re-sync to Internet time automatically.

WiFi Tips

• In WIFI, use SCAN to refresh the list, select a network, enter the password, then tap CONNECT.
• If you want to start fresh, tap FORGET to remove saved WiFi credentials.
• After connecting, the main screen shows your IP and whether the device is Time Synced to Internet.
