UPLOAD YOUR DATA

To get the most from your LEAP4LIFE membership, you should upload 

your data every day. Follow these simple steps to upload:

•  ON DEMAND –

 To manually push data from your Fitbug to 

the LEAP4LIFE site, make sure your computer is on, the 

dongle is inserted, you are connected to the Internet and the 

Fitbug software is running. Then hold the middle button for 

approximately two seconds until it says DATA. The Fitbug will say 

DONE when it has uploaded.

•  BEACON –

 You can also set your Fitbug to upload data on a 

regular basis. In Set-up mode, turn BEACO to ON. And then select 

the timing. (Keep in mind that the shorter the frequency, the 

more battery your Fitbug will use.) When Beacon is enabled, the 

Fitbug will upload your data whenever your computer is ready 

to receive data. It will only complete another upload if you have 

taken at least 200 steps. The Fitbug will not notify you when it 

does a beacon upload.

Your Fitbug will store your data for up to 14 days. If you haven’t 

uploaded your data for 10 days, this symbol will be on your 

display. This means that you only have a few days left before your 

earliest information starts to be overwritten.
