How to set up the 'Connect' gateway(s):

PlayerData Connected sessions require the use of the PlayerData Connect gateways. Prior to your session you will also need to complete the following steps:

1. Turn on the gateway(s) and wait for them to show a breathing green light, this indicates they are connected to the session and network.
2. Once connected, place the gateway into the tripod ensuring that the black side is facing outwards and that the green QR code is at the bottom.
3. Finally turn your units on and wait for them to connect to the GPS and live session. Ensure that the units have a breathing green light on the side as well as a lightning bolt at the bottom of the units display to confirm its connection to the session.
