We have created several new tools that you may find useful which we would like to make available to you to try free of charge. If you like to tinker, this site is for you. Please understand that any software made available through the Zephyr Labs page may either be a pre-release version (or possibly not intended for release as a product) in which cases there may be limited if any documentation or support available (with the exception of the SDK which is an actual product). This is also a good place to voice your feedback with regards to Zephyr Labs requests or even product feature requests.
BioHarness BT API and Example Android Project
The intended audience of this document is an Android programmer who needs a quick introduction to communicate with the Zephyr BioHarness 2 or 3. Along with the API, the source files for an example Android project are provided to help jump start your programming for communication with the Zephyr BioHarness. Click here to download.
HxM API and Example Android Project
The intended audience of this document is an Android programmer who needs a quick introduction to communicate with the Zephyr HxM. Along with the API, the source files for an example Android project are provided to help jump start your programming for communication with the Zephyr HxM. Click here to download.
BioHarness MATLAB Script File
The purpose of this file is to provide the MATLAB user with easier access to certain key information from the BioHarness. After downloading the data from the device onto a workstation using the BioHarness Log Downloader, the data from the BioHarness is stored in .csv format. This data can then be used as an input to this script to gain access to the data stored in those files. Click here to download the script file.
Zephyr HxM Developer Kit
This bundled package is intended as a toolkit for implementing an API to enable communications with a Zephyr Bluetooth Heart Rate / Speed & Distance Monitor (HxM) and provides both PC and Android resources for connecting to the device to receive live data. Click here to download (185 MB).
Zephyr BioHarness Bluetooth Developer Kit (full)
A download link with the tools and documentation can be provided free of charge (but requires a Non-Disclosure Agreement). Contact sales@zephyr-technology.com to request a link or if you would like to purchase the hardware as well. This includes the BioHarness Bluetooth Comms Link Specification, BioHarness Bluetooth API Guide, and BioHarness Bluetooth Logging System Interface (including source code in C#), BioHarness Firmware Upgrade Utility, Zephyr USB Driver, the Zephyr Bluetooth Test Application, and the Example Android Source Code, and more. (Download file size is 560 MB)
BioHarness Log Downloader (v1.0.8.0)
Downloads logged data from any BioHarness into both csv and DaDisp formats. Click here to download (187 MB).
Zephyr Config Tool (v1.0.3.0)
Allows you to reconfigure your BioHarness 2.0 (Bluetooth) as well as many other Zephyr devices for various applications, including but not limited to supporting enhanced ROG threshold customization, high resolution data capture (General data (1 Hz), Breathing waveform and R-R data (18 Hz), ECG waveform data sampled at 250 Hz, and Accelerometer (125 Hz). Click here to download. Supporting documentation not yet available.
Multidownloader Software
This software enables you to download from several BioHarness devices simulaneously regardless of whether they are BT or ISM devices. This software supports all released log formats and is configurable to auto-download new sessions once the device is reconnected to the USB cradle. This software is intended for use with the Zephyr Multidownloader case but will function as well with most USB hubs if you have multiple individual USB cradles connected simultaneously. One note of caution, read the included User Guide first. If you are downloading from the same device to different people, you will need to use the erase function at the end of each download for the downloader utility to recognize what is a new session for the person to whom you assign the device. This software requires OmniSense software to be installed on the computer, and all BioHarnesses must be added into the database, but it also downloads all logged data as csv files to My Documents > BioHarness Test Logs > Last Name First Name folder as well. Click here to download.
Impact Processor Software
This software is designed to detect impacts within your data downloaded using the Multidownloader Tool (above). The software allows you to set the thresholds to define an “impact” then generates a report on the number of impacts detected for each session of data processed. Requires OmniSense Software and the Multidownloader Software (available above). User Guide included. Click here to download.
Zephyr Firmware Updater
This is a firmware update tool for Zephyr BioHarness BT devices with instructions (does not include firmware). Click here to download.
Heart Rate Variability Tool
Heart Rate Variability (HRV) Tool measures the time interval between heart beats or cardio-intervals. It is usually measured by the variation in the beat-to-beat interval, rather than the variation in the instantaneous heart rate. Click here to download or check out the screen shot
Zephyr Excel spreadsheet time format
Many people have asked “how do you get day/month/year hour.minute.second.milisecond” formatting from a Zephyr csv file in Microsoft Excel. Here it is. Go to format cell-numbers to view this and learn how to do it again. Download this sample spreadsheet with instructions.
BioHarness BT Config tool
Reconfigure your BioHarness 2.0 (Bluetooth) to support high resolution data capture (General data (1 Hz), Breathing waveform and R-R data (18 Hz), ECG waveform data sampled at 250 Hz, and Accelerometer (125 Hz). Included in the .zip file, there is an application note to explain the process. Click here to download.
Radar plot Normalized data Spreadsheet
Allows comparisons of fitness tests to other players or populations. Save it to My Documents/OmniSense/Physiological Normative/.. then open OmniSense Analysis and select “Radar”.Compare Vo2max,Vo2 as a % of Anaerobic Threshold (AT), heart rate max (peak), rest and laying, Heart rate recovery, critical power, Heart Rate at AT, Breathing Rate at AT, RtoR std Dev, This is a very intuitive and simple way to compare people quickly to normative populations or teams. Also as an exciting way to compare to friends or competitors. Zephyr’s OmniSense allows users to edit the normative data simply using Microsoft Excel. download this sample spreadsheet
