Entering an Incident Report
An incident is a type of event associated with an experience. For example, when you see an anomalous object or have a vision. The Mupas AI Engine uses these events and your device readings to learn your patterns.
Incident reports are recorded in the Mupas System by date, time, and a narrative you provide describing your experience. You can optionally add specific information about the event, such as photos and images from your smartphone.
When you press the ENTER AN INCIDENT REPORT button, the following window will appear.
Either type or speak your narrative of your experience into the space provided, as the above example demonstrates. Be as detailed as you can in describing your experience. The date and time displayed on the screen is the current smartphone time which can be changed if you are entering a prior report.
Entering the event date and time
You can optionally change either the date or time to correspond to when the event took place by clicking the SELECT DATE or SELECT TIME buttons. You will be presented with windows to make your selection.
Attaching photos and images to the Incident Report
Optionally, you can attach a photo or an image from your smartphone to the incident report. To capture a photo using your smartphone camera, click the TAKE PHOTOS button. This will present a viewing screen that allows you to capture as many photos as you need to document the event.
Clicking records the image currently being shown on the viewing screen. As you add more pictures, the OK button will indicate how many photos you have taken already. When you are all set and have taken all the photos needed, you can press the OK button to return to the Incident Report window.
When you return to the Incident Report window the number of photos taken will be indicated in the button TAKE PHOTOS (2).

Once Bluetooth is enabled, you can click the LINK A BIOWATCH button to continue to link a Mupas Biometric Watch.

From this next window, you will be able to link a Mupas Biometric watch to the MUPAS system.
Linking a Biowatch device means associating the Mupas Biometric Device ID with the actual device that was shipped to you. In this window, you will see three lists: current linked devices, available Mupas Biometric Devices, and available Biowatches.
Current Linked Devices List

This is a list of the actual Biowatch devices discovered on the Bluetooth network. If there are no devices on the list please ensure your Bluetooth is enabled and your Biowatch is turned on.
Now, select one entry from the Mupas Biometric Devices List and one entry from the Biowatch List, then click the LINK THESE DEVICES button.
Your new link will now appear in the Current Linked Devices List. You will also notice that when you select a Biowatch device, there is an indication of its status just under the list. When the status reads Biowatch is up to date you are all set and can start getting biometric data from the watch.
You can link several Biowatchs using this method. To remove a link, select one of the entries and then click the REMOVE SELECTED LINK button.
