Wi-Fi Setup Instructions

When you first get your mytaptrack device, you need to connect it to Wi-Fi before you can complete registering it and configure it for a student. In order to do so you will need a smartphone or WiFi-enabled computer and your mytaptrack device.

​

Registering Device to a Student

You must register and configure your device for an existing student. The following steps will lead you through that process.

 

Steps:

  1. Log into the mytaptrack® portal

  2. Select the student for device registration

  3. Click "Settings" from the tool bar at the top of the page

  4. Click the "Devices" tab

  5. Click the "Register Device" button, or select "+ Register Track 2.0"

  6. Follow the instructions to register your device

  7. Once its registered, select the behaviors for each click count from the behaviors you’ve created for that student

 

Note: If you want to connect the Track 2.0 to a new student, create that student first, then use the prior steps.

Connecting the Device to Multiple Students

In the case where you plan have to track multiple students in a single classroom, we’ve designed the device to easily switch between students with voice commands.  In order to use this capability though, you need to configure your single device for multiple students.

 

Steps:

  1. After registering your device for the first student, click the "Setup Code Word" link on the device configuration screen

  2. Hold down the Track 2.0 button and wait for the light to turn green.

  3. Say "Set switch to" then say the code word you want to use for the student

  4. Release the button and confirm the specified code word is now shown on the Track 2.0 settings. If something is mispelled, it is fine, as that is how the system is interpretting what was said.

​

Note: Codewords are spelled for phonetic correctness. When creating your codeword, we recommend that you test out the codeword by saying "Note switch to <codeword>".  This will insert the codeword as a note the student's notes allowing you to verify that the codeword will work as you intend.  An example of this would be saying “Student 1” and finding out that the code word is actually “Student One”.

Taking Notes

Capturing qualitative data can help identify patterns or communicate detailed observations of symptoms. To do this, the device must be registered to a student.

 

Steps:

  1. Hold down the device button

  2. Wait for the light to turn green

  3. Immediately say "note" then talk for up to 12 seconds

  4. When you're finished release the device button

  5. The light will blink green to indicate that the note was understood and is being processed.

Steps:

  1. Hold down the device button​
