Putting on the Smartsuit Pro II

Note: Before putting on the Smartsuit Pro II, we recommend configuring it first. Click here to find instructions on applying your WiFi settings to your Smartsuit Pro II in Studio Legacy and here in Studio.

You are free to wear your clothing both under and on top of the Smartsuit Pro II (as long as it is not made out of metal like a knight's armor!) For comfort and accurate placement of the sensors on the body, we recommend stripping down to your underwear and a t-shirt.

First, unzip the back pocket and locate the headband.
