After you have registered and installed your hub the next stage is your first pour.
Your first pour:
Register your Helix Tail
1. Create a pour in the ConcreteDNA App.
2. Secure tail to node by aligning the red dots on the connector.
3. Register tail in the ConcreteDNA App.
4. Scan tail when prompted by the app.
5. Press the button for 5 seconds: the first press will be green (joined network), future presses will be blue (data sent).
6. Refresh App to see data.
Install for first pour
1. For best practice, use the mounting points on the node to install it near your monitoring location.
2. Attach the probe to rebar using zip ties ensuring the probe does not touch the reinforcement.
Viewing the status
1. Navigate to the Inventory tab in the mobile app to view the status of your hub and nodes.
2. Hubs and nodes will present as either Online or Offline.
3. Nodes will also display pour name, tail name, and last data update time.
4. To navigate to the temperature and strength data for that last tail, simply tap on the relevant node.
How to reuse your Helix Node
When a pour is complete and it no longer needs to be monitored:
1. Remove the tail from the node. Simply pinch and pull the connector (no need to twist).
2. Cut the tail at desired length.
3. Put the node into Sleep mode by fast pressing the push button 5 times (to conserve battery).
