FAQ
How can I change the measurement modes of the device?

Go to the device hard drive Faros XXX (XXX is model, 90, 180 or 360). From this
hard drive, you can find the Faros Manager software with which you are able to
change the measurement settings. For further information on how to use Faros
Manager, please see eMotion Faros Series Manual, chapter 3

My Faros sensor does not start, what might cause this
problem?

It is important to remember that eMotion Faros sensor uses the energy of the
battery also when it is on standby mode (“power off” mode). For example, the
device’s inner clock uses the battery also when it is turned off to keep up with
the time. This is why we recommend you to recharge the sensor before every
measurement, or at least when the sensor has been on standby mode for several
days.
