The XS1 supports bluetooth pairing for OxeDots, audio devices (headphones/speakers), and heart rate monitors (HRM). Up to three OxeDots can be connected at a time, along with one audio device and one HRM. This functionality allows an active user to have their bluetooth headphones and wearable HRM device paired and in use simultaneously while training, while also using three separate OxeDots, but not multiple audio or multiple HRM devices.
BLUETOOTH MENU
To access the bluetooth menu, open the toolbar in the top right corner of screen and select Bluetooth. Your bluetooth devices will appear in one of the three sections below.
01. CONNECTED: Bluetooth devices currently paired to your XS1.
02. SAVED: Bluetooth devices previously paired to your XS1, in conjunction with either your user profile or another’s when multi-users share XS1. Devices that are saved by another user will be denoted with the text Used By Another User.
03. SCANNED: Bluetooth devices nearby in which your XS1 has detected a signal for.
Press CONNECT next to a device from the SAVED or SCANNED list to pair it.
Press DISCONNECT if you want to pair a different audio device.
Press FORGET if you want to pair a different HRM.
The current audio device or HRM must be disconnected or forgotten before a different SAVED or SCANNED device of the same type will connect.
All bluetooth devices will only appear in one list at a time––SCANNED, SAVED, or CONNECTED––so connected items will not appear in the SAVED list simultaneously.
There is a filter option to help narrow down the type of device you want to see in the menu when there are many bluetooth items nearby. Filter the bluetooth menu for one of the three supported device types––OxeDot, Headphones, HRM––by selecting its icon near the top of the bluetooth menu to make only that device type visible in the CONNECTED, SAVED, and SCANNED lists.
OXEDOT
Your OxeDots will appear in the bluetooth menu labeled by their four-digit ID code.
To preserve battery life, OxeDots will disconnect when XS1 is not in use. Click each OxeDot to wake it before each training session and allow a few seconds for it to connect.
A blinking blue light indicates when an OxeDot is in pairing mode.
Always verify OxeDot connection status before use. When you exit the bluetooth menu, the toolbar will display a number next to the OxeDot icon to indicate how many units are currently paired.
When an OxeDot is connected, if you click it, you will see its listing in the CONNECTED section pulse momentarily. This is useful if you have multiple OxeDots and want to determine which one is which.
The OxeDot requires a CR2032 battery. If there is no light when you press the OxeDot, change the battery. See help article in our support center for step-by-step: Change OxeDot Battery

AUDIO ( Headphones / Speakers )
For simplicity, the term headphones will be used as shorthand to also encompass any bluetooth audio device that streams a sound, including speakers.
- Place headphones in pairing mode to begin bluetooth connection to XS1 (this will be a different step/process for each bluetooth headphones device, so refer to your device's specific user manual for how to do so).
- Open XS1 bluetooth menu.
- If needed, use the headphones filter to limit visibility of other device types.
- Allow up to 60 seconds for your headphones to become visible in the XS1 bluetooth menu.
- When your headphones appear in the SCANNED list, select the Connect button next to it.
- When pairing, you will see the selected bluetooth device move to the SAVED list for just a moment before moving to the CONNECTED list.
- Once connected, the headphones device will be remembered in the SAVED list and will attempt to connect automatically anytime the same user profile is selected.
- Only one audio device can be connected at a time. If you want to connect a different audio device, you must select Disconnect next to the one currently in use first before selecting the new one from the SCANNED list.
- Select Forget to disassociate any bluetooth device and remove its visibility from your XS1. It will only show up in SCANNED if nearby and in pairing mode.
- The toolbar will display the headphones icon when a device is paired.
HRM
HRMs that use a standard heart rate protocol to broadcast via bluetooth connection can be paired directly to the XS1. See our list of verified HRM devices here: Connect/Use Heart Rate Monitor.
- Place HRM in broadcast mode.
- Open XS1 bluetooth menu.
- If needed, use the HRM filter to limit the visibility of other devices.
- Allow up to 60 seconds for your HRM to become visible in the XS1 bluetooth menu.
- When your HRM appears in the SCANNED list, select the Connect button next to it.
- When pairing, you will see the selected bluetooth device jump to the SAVED list for just a moment before moving to the CONNECTED list.
- Once connected, the HRM device will be remembered in the SAVED list and will attempt to connect automatically anytime the same user profile is selected.
- Only one HRM device can be connected at a time. If you want to connect a different HRM device, you must select Forget to disassociate the one currently in use first before selecting the new one from the SCANNED list.
- The toolbar will display the HRM icon when a device is paired.
USER PROFILE OPERATION
Because different users will typically have their own individual headphones and/or wearable HRM, the SAVED visibility for these types of bluetooth devices will pertain to the current user profile selected. When a user logs into their profile on the XS1, their previously used bluetooth devices will attempt to connect automatically when detected. NOTE: Not all bluetooth devices support the ability to auto-connect via bluetooth, as this feature pertains to the manufacturing.
Any previously used bluetooth devices not detected will remain in the SAVED list. The SAVED list will also reflect any bluetooth devices previously paired under another user’s profile, such as a family member’s, when the XS1 device is shared by multiple users. With the exception of OxeDots, users can only Forget bluetooth devices that have been paired under their user profile.
MULTI-USER OPERATION
For work-in mode and team workouts, where multiple people are training together in rotation on the XS1, the connected bluetooth devices will also switch depending on the current user profile selected.
If all users in work-in mode each have their own bluetooth headphones, only one pair––the active user’s pair––will be connected to receive audio at a time. The same also applies to HRM when multiple active users are training in rotation. When switching user profiles, please allow several seconds for the selected user’s bluetooth devices to connect.
BATTERY LEVEL INDICATION
Some bluetooth devices have a battery level indicator that will display how fully charged or depleted it is. Please note that this is a built-in feature solely dependent on your specific device and how it was manufactured. You may see this battery level on the XS1 screen for some of your devices, but not all of them, and this is normal. If you believe the battery percentage represented is inaccurate, please contact your bluetooth device’s manufacturer.
TROUBLESHOOTING
01. If you experience any lagging or difficulty, please check with your device’s specific user manual or manufacturer for auto connection and timeout behavior. Some bluetooth devices do not support auto connection, as this is a manufacturing feature. When this is the case, simply go to the bluetooth menu and click Connect each time.
02. If OxeDot is still not pairing after several attempts, check the OxeDot light to help you indicate what the issue may be. First, ensure that you are fully pressing the OxeDot, and then check the light:
-
- No light––indicates that OxeDot battery needs to be replaced.
- Blue––indicates that OxeDot is paired to an XS1. If this occurs but the OxeDot is NOT displaying as CONNECTED in the Bluetooth Menu, there may be another XS1 nearby that it is connected to. This is uncommon, but can occur in certain settings (apartment complexes, sports clinics, or other facilities where multiple XS1 devices are within a close range).
- Red––indicates that OxeDot is not paired. If Red light persists after several pairing attempts, powering your XS1 OFF and then back ON may solve the issue. If OxeDot pairing still does not occur, contact support@oxefit.com.
- Green––indicates that OxeDot is updating its firmware, which should take approx. 15 seconds or less. If solid green light continues for more than 30 seconds, this unfortunately indicates the OxeDot is unable to update and is no longer usable. In this case, please discard OxeDot and contact support@oxefit.com to receive a new one.
03. Difficulty LOADING the weight with OxeDot?
- A “long press” (press and hold for 1 second) is required to LOAD the weight, while a regular press will UNLOAD. Ensure you are are long pressing the OxeDot to LOAD the weight.
