On your recent workouts, if you notice unusual spikes in heart rate or if you don't have heart rate data at all, first follow the [steps outlined in this article.](https://knowledgebase.equimetre.com/en/cardio-data-is-abnormal?hsLang=en) ![Image2](https://knowledgebase.equimetre.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Image2.png?width=300&name=Image2.png)![Image1-1](https://knowledgebase.equimetre.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Image1-1.png?width=300&name=Image1-1.png) ![Image3](https://knowledgebase.equimetre.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Image3.png?width=400&name=Image3.png) ⚠️ If the girth appears damaged, **contact Support at +33 7 81 72 74 64 by phone, or through your dedicated EQUIMETRE WhatsApp group.** Feel free to attach a photo to facilitate the exchange. A new strap will be sent to you as soon as possible. ### Check the Live data If everything seems to be in good condition, you can check the quality of the heart rate signal using the Live feature of the EQUIMETRE application. Equipment required for the test: - A horse (preferably calm/resting) - The girth and 1 EQUIMETRE sensor - A smartphone with access to the EQUIMETRE application Install the strap and turn on the sensor as usual, then open the Live tab of the EQUIMETRE app while stationary in the stall. If the heart rate is working properly, the displayed heart rate should be stable and low (30-60 bpm in the stall). You can also display live ECG to ensure that the curves are clear and not blurred. **[To learn more about live ECG, click here.](https://knowledgebase.equimetre.com/en/vet-how-to-watch-your-horses-ecg-live?hsLang=en)**   ⚠️ If you need assistance, **contact Support at +33 7 81 72 74 64 by phone, or through your dedicated EQUIMETRE WhatsApp group.** ![Capture d’écran 2021-04-12 à 11.31.03](https://knowledgebase.equimetre.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Capture%20d%E2%80%99e%CC%81cran%202021-04-12%20a%CC%80%2011.31.03.png?width=488&height=113&name=Capture%20d%E2%80%99e%CC%81cran%202021-04-12%20a%CC%80%2011.31.03.png) - [USE OF THE SENSOR](https://knowledgebase.equimetre.com/en/use-of-the-sensor?hsLang=en) - [THE EQUIMETRE APP](https://knowledgebase.equimetre.com/en/the-equimetre-app?hsLang=en) - [FIRST STEPS WITH EQUIMETRE](https://knowledgebase.equimetre.com/en/first-steps-with-equimetre?hsLang=en) - [THE EQUIMETRE PLATFORM](https://knowledgebase.equimetre.com/en/the-equimetre-platform?hsLang=en) - [FIRST STEPS IN THE ANALYSIS](https://knowledgebase.equimetre.com/en/first-steps-in-the-analysis?hsLang=en) - [GOING FURTHER IN THE ANALYSIS](https://knowledgebase.equimetre.com/en/going-further-in-the-analysis?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Dashboard Vet - ECG analysis platform](https://knowledgebase.equimetre.com/en/going-further-in-the-analysis?hsLang=en#dashboard-vet-ecg-analysis-platform) - [TECHNICAL SUPPORT](https://knowledgebase.equimetre.com/en/technical-support?hsLang=en) [![Chill listening crop-3](https://knowledgebase.equimetre.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Logo_ARIONEO_sans%20signature_N.png?width=30&height=24&name=Logo_ARIONEO_sans%20signature_N.png "Chill listening crop-3")](http://horselab.com) KNOWLEDGE BASE EQUIMETRE Copyright © 2026, ARIONEO
