# Setup

Setting up INSIGHT is very quick and easy. The sensors are made from a semi-dry polymer. If they are not in use, they should be kept in the sensor holder in the zip lock bag. For ease of setup, we have fitted the sensors for T7 and the reference arm and covered these with a protective film. Please remove the plastic film.&#x20;

The sensor pack has an extra sensor, for users with thick hair, we recommend to use the three prong sensor. This is designed to have a better hair penetration and recommended to be fitted to the short arm Pz. Please keep the spare sensors within the sensor pack to ensure they do not dry out. Please fit the sensors to the headset as shown below.

Before each use, we recommend that you prime the sensors with a small amount of fluid so that they are not dry.
