Answer 1:

be detected. The following steps show how to connect
Spooky Pulse to your computer.

2. Disconnect the Spooky Pulse USB port from the computer.
3. Restart the PC.
4. Log in to your account.

5. Reconnect Spooky Pulse. Plug directly into a computer
port. Spooky Pulse will not work if you are using a USB
hub. Hubs add latency, which is an issue for the pulse.
6. Launch Spooky2.
7. Verify that the green power LED is on and that the red
LED flashes when the pulse is being monitored.

Ensure that Spooky Pulse was plugged in before starting the
Spooky2 Software, and that it is detected and listed in the
devices box found in the Advanced Menu.
If the Spooky Pulse is still not detected, exchange the mini
USB cable for the mini USB connector that came with your
Spooky Pulse. This should solve any YSB connection
problems.

Q2:
How can I get the best results from the Pulse Finger
Sensor and reduce the number of errors the Biofeedback
Scan is reporting?

Answer 2:
We suggest the following when using the Spooky Pulse finger clip:
1. Place the clip on the middle finger of the left hand as the pulse is
generally strongest there. People with large fingers may use their little
“pinkie” finger.
2. Ensure the clip is orientated with the black wire on the same side
as your fingernail.
3. Place the clip so the two dimples inside the clip are close to the
end of your finger.

4. Rest the left hand and fingers in a natural state during a scan.
Trying to keep your hand still or flat may cause tension, which c
an contribute to data read errors. Let your hand rest naturally.

Q3: I find that the sensitivity of the Spooky Pulse sensor
differs greatly depending on the location you attach it to your
body. How do I find the best location while using Spooky
pulse finger clip?

Answer 3:
For those who have earrings, it is recommended to use a finger clip
rather than an ear clip. As for sensitivity, I would suggest that you
try and experiment with attaching the sensor to different physical
locations on your body. Move it around on your ears - topside, in
the middle, on the lobe, etc. Try using the finger sensor on another
finger, try "switching hands" and try using the fingers of your other
hand etc. If you are using a finger sensor, make sure that the IR
sensor is not positioned above a fingernail - it should be located
above "skin".

What you can also try doing is to turn each sensor (for ear or
for finger) "over" (back to front) and see if this helps. Once
attached, try giving the silicone finger sensor a gentle squeeze
or two. Be nice to it, coax it lovingly to do its work.
Make sure that your sensors as well as your skin are clean and
oil free while making the connection. Clean both gently with
cotton ball moistened with a little rubbing alcohol.

It is recommended to use the mini USB connector rather
than the cable that comes with Spooky Pulse. Most people
do not even notice that they are in possession of this little
mini USB connector as no mention is made of it in the
Spooky2 User's Manual. Stop using the USB cable, plug the
dongle directly into a free USB slot on your computer, and
attach the Spooky Pulse cable with sensor onto the other
side of the dongle. Then, you are ready to go!

Q4: When doing biofeedback scan, do you use remote or
contact. If use contact, which one do you choose, hand
cylinders or Tens Pads.

Answer 4:
You can perform a biofeedback scan using remote or contact.
Contact mode uses hand cylinders or Tens Pads. When doing a
remote mode scan, choose a Spooky Remote v1.1 BN (the
white one). You can have it configured as shown below:

When using the TENS pads, keep the same settings. There is
no need to adjust amplitude or set the “Reduce Amplitude”
option as the scan is in the high frequency range. Please keep
this in mind if you decide to perform a scan using lower
frequencies. We have found best results are when we connect
the pads to the outer right wrist and the outer left ankle. With
both remote and contact mode you need to be connected with
Spooky Pulse either via Finger clip or Ear clip.
