Alerts
You can use alerts to train toward specific heart rate, pace, time,
distance, cadence, and calories goals and to set run/walk time
intervals.
Setting Range Alerts
A range alert notifies you when the device is above or below a
specified range of values. For example, if you have an optional
heart rate monitor, you can set the device to alert you when your
heart rate is below zone 2 and over zone 5 (Setting Your Heart
Rate Zones, page 4).
1
Select Menu > Activity Settings > Alerts > Add New.
2
Select the type of alert.
Depending on your accessories and the activity profile, the
alerts may include heart rate, pace, speed, and cadence.
3
If necessary, turn on the alert.
4
Select a zone or enter a value for each alert.
Each time you exceed or drop below the specified range, a
message appears. The device also beeps or vibrates if audible
tones are turned on (Setting the Device Sounds, page 10).
Setting a Recurring Alert
A recurring alert notifies you each time the device records a
specified value or interval. For example, you can set the device
to alert you every 30 minutes.
1
Select Menu > Activity Settings > Alerts > Add New.
2
Select an option:
• Select Custom, select a message, and select an alert
type.
• Select Time, Distance, or Calories.
3
Enter a value.
Each time you reach the alert value, a message appears. The
device also beeps or vibrates if audible tones are turned on
(Setting the Device Sounds, page 10).
Setting Walk Break Alerts
Some running programs use timed walking breaks at regular
intervals. For example, during a long training run, you can set
the device to alert you to run for 4 minutes, and then walk for 1
minute, and repeat. You can use the Auto Lap
®
feature while
using the run/walk alerts.
NOTE: Walk break alerts are available only for running profiles.
1
Select Menu > Activity Settings > Alerts > Add New.
2
Select Run/Walk.
3
Enter a time for the run interval.
4
Enter a time for the walk interval.
Each time you reach the alert value, a message appears. The
device also beeps or vibrates if audible tones are turned on
(Setting the Device Sounds, page 10).
Editing an Alert
1
Select Menu > Activity Settings > Alerts.
2
Select an alert.
3
Edit the alert values or settings.
Using Auto Pause
®
You can use the Auto Pause feature to pause the timer
automatically when you stop moving or when your pace or
speed drops below a specified value. This feature is helpful if
your activity includes stop lights or other places where you need
to slow down or stop.
NOTE: History is not recorded while the timer is stopped or
paused.
1
Select Menu > Activity Settings > Auto Pause.
2
Select an option:
• Select When Stopped to pause the timer automatically
when you stop moving.
• Select Custom to pause the timer automatically when
your pace or speed drops below a specified value.
Marking Laps by Distance
You can use the Auto Lap feature to mark a lap at a specific
distance automatically. This feature is helpful for comparing your
performance over different parts of a run (for example, every 1
mi. or 5 km).
1
Select Menu > Activity Settings > Laps > Auto Distance.
2
Select a distance.
Each time you complete a lap, a message appears that displays
the time for that lap. The device also beeps or vibrates if audible
tones are turned on (Setting the Device Sounds, page 10).
If necessary, you can customize the data screens to display
additional lap data.
Using Auto Scroll
You can use the auto scroll feature to cycle through all of the
training data screens automatically while the timer is running.
1
Select Menu > Activity Settings > Auto Scroll.
2
Select a display speed.
Changing the GPS Setting
By default, the device uses GPS to locate satellites. For
increased performance in challenging environments and faster
GPS position location, you can enable GPS and GLONASS.
Using GPS and GLONASS reduces battery life more than using
only GPS.
Select Menu > Activity Settings > GPS > GPS +
GLONASS.
Power Save Timeout Settings
The timeout settings affect how long your device stays in
training mode, for example, when you are waiting for a race to
start. Select Menu > Activity Settings > Power Save Timeout.
Normal: Sets the device to enter low-power watch mode after 5
minutes of inactivity.
Extended: Sets the device to enter low-power watch mode after
25 minutes of inactivity. The extended mode can result in
shorter battery life between charges.
Activity Tracking Settings
Select Menu > Settings > Activity Tracking.
Status: Enables the activity tracking feature.
Move Alert: Displays a message and move bar on the time of
day screen. The device also beeps or vibrates if audible
tones are turned on (Setting the Device Sounds, page 10).
