MP2513 Insole Sensor Kit Installation and Usage Guide
Follow the steps below to easily use the kit.
First, you need to install the Snowforce3 software.
2. Run the Installation File
Follow the installation guide to complete the installation.
โป During the installation, FTDI drivers and .NET Framework will be installed. Both must be installed.
In most cases, .NET Framework is already installed, so you may receive a message indicating it is already installed.
3. Run SnowForce3 
4. Configure Software Device and Sensor
Set the device to Tinn (Snowboard2). (Default value: MC1509)
Set sensor 1 to INSOLE_M1_L and sensor 2 to INSOLE_M1_R. (Default value: None)
5. Set Device Port (Port1)
To connect the device with the software, you need to know the port number that identifies the device.
Click on Port1 UI, and you will see a Reset option. Depending on your PC, there might also be COM1.
Remember the port number, then refer to the image below to connect the Tinn controller to your PC.
After connecting to the PC, select Reset in Port1. A new COM port will be added.
The new COM port is the recently connected Tinn controller,
and the COM port number assigned by the PC usually does not change.
In this guide, COM81 is shown as the newly added port. Please select the new port.
6. Set Device Port (Port2)
Since the MP2513 Insole Sensor Kit uses two controllers, you need to repeat the above process one more time.
This time, click on the Port2 UI, remember the port number, and connect the second Tinn controller.
7. Connect Insole_L Sensor and Tinn Controller
Let's connect the Insole_L sensor to the first Tinn controller.
For Insole sensors, it is essential to use the M1 interface board.
Follow these steps to connect:
Refer to the image below.
โป Ensure that the arrow direction on the interface board points towards the front direction of the sensor when connecting.
8. Connect Insole_R Sensor and Tinn Controller
Similarly, let's connect the Insole_R sensor to the second Tinn controller.
Refer to the image below.
โป Ensure that the arrow direction on the interface board points towards the front direction of the sensor when connecting.
9. Start Measurement and Verify Operation
Press the Connect button to start the measurement.
To check if the connection is successful, press the sensor and verify that the pressed location appears correctly on the screen.
If it does not display, set the ColorMap value to 30 and the Threshold value to 0, then check again.
โป If it still does not display, please close SnowForce3 and start again from Step 3 (Run SnowForce3).
You have now completed the installation and operation verification of the MP2513 Insole Sensor Kit.

Introduction to ForceLAB2 API
An Integrated API Solution for Real-Time Tactile Data Analysis and Control
The ForceLAB2 API is designed to support flexible system architecture for real-time data streaming and system control in a wide range of programming environments.ย It enables seamless integration with automation systems, helping customers build tailored solutions quickly and efficiently.
KLib2: Unidirectional API
- The KLib2 API enables access to real-time data analysis and internal API features within ForceLAB2. It supports unidirectional data streaming (ADC or Force data) to client software (including third-party software) over TCP/IP.
- Ideal for lightweight applications focused on data collection and external integration.
KLib3: Bidirectional API
- The KLib3 API allows bidirectional communication with ForceLAB2. Upon activation, it automatically connects to the device, enabling a wide range of controls such as starting/stopping analysis, saving logs and snapshots, or updating calibration files.
- Suitable for advanced, automated systems requiring dynamic control.
