Hardware Installation
Connect up to 100 Heart Rate Monitors Simultaneously
There are two configurations for installing OnBeat based on how many heart rate monitors you need to connect. With just your iPhone or iPad, you can connect up to 12 Bluetooth heart rate monitors. If you need to connect more than 12 and up to 100, you will need to purchase our antenna/receiver (see below for more details).
