Satellite Settings
You can change the satellite settings to customize the satellite systems used for each activity. For more
information about satellite systems, go to garmin.com/aboutGPS.
Hold MENU, select Activities & Apps, select an activity, select the activity settings, and select Satellites.
NOTE: This feature is not available for all activities.
Off: Disables satellite systems for the activity.
Use Default: Enables the watch to use the default system setting for satellites (System Settings, page 104).
GPS Only: Enables the GPS satellite system.
All Systems: Enables multiple satellite systems. Using multiple satellite systems together offers increased
performance in challenging environments and faster position acquisition than using GPS only. However,
using multiple systems can reduce battery life more quickly than using GPS only.
All + Multi-Band: Enables multiple satellite systems on multiple frequency bands. Multi-band systems use
multiple frequency bands and allow for more consistent track logs, improved positioning, improved multi-
path errors, and fewer atmospheric errors when using the watch in challenging environments.
Auto Select: Enables the watch to use SatIQ
™
technology to dynamically select the best multi-band system
based on your environment. The Auto Select setting offers the best positioning accuracy while still
prioritizing battery life.
UltraTrac: Records track points and sensor data less frequently. Enabling the UltraTrac feature increases
battery life but decreases the quality of recorded activities. You should use the UltraTrac feature for activities
that demand longer battery life and for which frequent sensor data updates are less important.
Training
Training for a Race Event
Your watch can suggest daily workouts to help you train for a running event, if you have a VO2 max. estimate
(About VO2 Max. Estimates, page 49).
1 On your phone or computer, go to your Garmin Connect calendar.
2 Select the day of the event, and add the race event.
You can search for an event in your area or create your own event.
NOTE: You can add and view cycling race events, but daily suggested workouts are not available.
3 Add details about the event, and add the course if it's available.
4 Sync your watch with your Garmin Connect account.
5 On your watch, scroll to the primary event glance to see a countdown to your primary race event.
6 From the watch face, press START, and select a running activity.
NOTE: If you have completed at least 1 outdoor run with heart rate data or 1 ride with heart rate and power
data, daily suggested workouts appear on your watch.
Race Calendar and Primary Race
When you add a race event to your Garmin Connect calendar, you can view the event on your watch by adding
the primary race glance (Glances, page 44). The event date must be in the next 365 days. The watch displays a
countdown to the event, your goal time or predicted finish time (running events only), and weather information.
NOTE: Historical weather information for the location and date is available right away. Local forecast data
appears approximately 14 days before the event.
If you add more than one race event, you are prompted to choose a primary event.
Depending on the available course data for your event, you can view elevation data, the course map, and add a
PacePro plan (PacePro Training, page 35).
