Assigning Triton Units & Heart Rate Monitors
If you’re looking to assign a Triton unit or Heart Rate monitor to a swimmer after activation, this article will walk you through exactly how to do that.
You can assign a Heart Rate monitor only after a swimmer has been assigned to a Triton unit.
Assigning Triton units and Heart Rate monitors (HRMs) to swimmers now happens in one place, the Account Management page.
Before assigning any devices, they must first be added to your account. If you're not sure how to do that, check out How to Activate Units or Heart Rate Monitors.
Use the quick navigation below to jump to the section you need, whether you're assigning a Triton unit, a Heart Rate monitor, or checking what swimmers can do on their end.

Who Can Assign Devices?
-
Membership owners can activate devices, assign and unassign them, and disable them if needed.
-
Swimmers can see their assigned devices, but can’t assign or unassign anything unless they own the unit.
-
Swimmers on a shared membership can leave the membership, which unassigns them from the device, but they won’t be able to assign themselves to anything else.
How to Assign a Triton Unit
Once your Triton unit is activated, follow these steps to assign it to a swimmer:
-
Go to the Account Management page.
-
Find the Triton unit in your list.
- Tap Select Member and search your swimmer’s name.
- Choose the swimmer from the list.
Once assigned, the swimmer will be ready to use that unit in their next workout.
Important:
A swimmer will only show up on this list if:
-
They’ve been invited to your team.
-
They’ve accepted the invite.
-
They’ve completed registration and verified their account using the invite link.
If you don’t see the swimmer:
-
Tap Add Them to Your Team in the pop-up.
-
Choose your team, click the pencil icon under Members, then tap the + Invite Athletes icon to send the invite.
How to Assign a Heart Rate Monitor (HRM)
❤️Currently, TritonWear integrates exclusively with the Polar Verity Sense heart rate monitor.
- Tap Select HRM next to the swimmer.
- A small pop-up will appear.
From here:
-
If your account already has HRMs, you’ll see a list to choose from.
-
If no HRMs have been added yet, and you're on a phone or iPad, this pop-up will let you add and activate a new HRM on the spot.
🤓This process is mobile/tablet only since Bluetooth is required.
Shared Memberships
If you're part of a shared membership:
-
You'll see units listed under "Shared Membership."
-
You can view who it’s assigned to, but you can’t assign, unassign, or disable it.
-
You can leave the membership, which will unassign you from any devices you were using.
