1. After you add your device to the study, select 'Study Arms' in the left sidebar navigation. Then select 'event Schedule' for the arm where you want to add the 'Collect Data' event.  
   1.  Not sure how to add a device? See 'Collect Data' Event for instructions.
      
      
   
   
   
2. Click the blue 'Add New event' button and select 'Device Upload' as the event type. The devices can be viewed by navigating to the Devices section in Manage Study.
   
   
   
   
3. Select the device options from the drop down list. This will auto populate all of the devices that you have set up in Way to Health.  
   
   
   
   
   
4. Name the event. 
   
   
   
   
5. Choose the day when the event should start and the event window.  The event window is the time that the participant has to complete either a weigh in or a pedometer sync.  
   1.  Tip! For pedometer or scale device upload events, typically, participants are asked to start weighing in or syncing their pedometers on Day 0 or Day 1 and they have the entire day to do so (12 am - 11:59 pm) 
      
      
      
6. Indicate how many times the event should repeat and then click the blue 'Add' button .
   1. Tip! For pedometer or scale device upload events, typically, participants are asked to weigh in or sync their pedometer every day for the entire duration of the study. 
      
      
      
7. For daily data collection, typically you don't want to leave the 'participant message' and 'send notification?' options blanksend a message on the Collect Data event itself since it will be occur at the frequency selected. 
   1.  Tip! To inform the participant  that they should sync their Fitbit or weigh in on their scale every day, create a 'Send a Message' event with instructions or welcome to study message. 
      
      
8. You are now ready to build logic on the 'Collect Data' event.  Click the 'Save and Define Logic' button. 
   
   
   
   
9. Inside the 'Collect Data' logic, you can designate compliance criteria. Select If 'Completed and' 
   
   
10. Choose the device field (i.e steps) and the operator (i.e >).  Then select either amount or target.
    1. Amount: a set number for all study participants. For example, 7,000 steps
    2. Target: a individualized step count goal for each study participant 
       1.  Note: In order to use a target for compliance, a target generator must be developed.  
          
          
          
11. Click 'Add a consequence' and select 'compliant' and click the blue 'Save Feedback' at the bottom of the page.
    
    
    
12. Your new 'Collect Data' event is now visible in the Overview of the schedule. 
    
    
    
    
13.  Want to send the participant a message based on the step count total from the previous day? Instead of building this as a logic message directly in the Fitbit event, send the message via an 'Add Logic' event.  See Round Up event for more information on how to set up 'Add Logic' events.
    
    
    1. Why should I send the message via 'Add Logic'? Otherwise Way to Health will send the message to the participant once the event closes- typically at midnight. Way to Health has a safeguard in place to prevent messages from going out prior to 8 am (unless otherwise specified in the profile), however a participant may not appreciate receiving a text message at 8 am on a Saturday . 
       
       
    2.  But there's a caveat…. If you want to relay the participant's target to them in the daily message (i.e. 'You only walked X steps yesterday and your goal was Y steps.  Try harder today!') then you must build this message onto the 'Collect Data' logic as an 'Add Logic' event will not have the option to include the TARGET variable.
