Wireless Sensors
Your watch can be paired and used with wireless ANT+
®
or Bluetooth sensors (Pairing Your Wireless Sensors,
page 52). After the devices are paired, you can customize the optional data fields (Customizing the Data
Screens, page 46). If your watch was packaged with a sensor, they are already paired.
For information about specific Garmin sensor compatibility, purchasing, or to view the owner's manual, go to
buy.garmin.com for that sensor.
Sensor Type Description
Club Sensors
You can use Approach
®
CT10 golf club sensors to automatically track your golf shots,
including location, distance, and club type.
Heart Rate
You can use an external heart rate monitor, such as the HRM-Pro
™
or HRM-Dual
™
, and view
heart rate data during your activities.
Foot Pod
You can use a foot pod to record pace and distance instead of using GPS when you are
training indoors or when your GPS signal is weak.
Headphones
You can use Bluetooth headphones to listen to music loaded onto your Venu 2 Plus watch
(Connecting Bluetooth Headphones, page 11).
Lights You can use Varia smart bike lights to improve situational awareness.
Radar
You can use a Varia rearview bike radar to improve situational awareness and send alerts
about approaching vehicles. With a Varia radar camera tail light, you can also take photos and
record video during a ride (Using the Varia Camera Controls, page 28).
Speed/
Cadence
You can attach speed or cadence sensors to your bike and view the data during your ride. If
necessary, you can manually enter your wheel circumference (Calibrating Your Speed Sensor,
page 53).
tempe
You can attach the tempe temperature sensor to a secure strap or loop where it is exposed to
ambient air, so it provides a consistent source of accurate temperature data.
Pairing Your Wireless Sensors
The first time you connect a wireless ANT+ or Bluetooth sensor to your Garmin watch, you must pair the watch
and sensor. After they are paired, the watch connects to the sensor automatically when you start an activity and
the sensor is active and within range.
TIP: Some ANT+ sensors pair with your watch automatically when you start an activity with the sensor turned
on and near the watch.
1 Move at least 10 m (33 ft.) away from other wireless sensors.
2 If you are pairing a heart rate monitor, put on the heart rate monitor.
The heart rate monitor does not send or receive data until you put it on.
3 Hold .
4 Select > Sensors & Accessories > Add New.
5 Bring the watch within 3 m (10 ft.) of the sensor, and wait while the watch pairs with the sensor.
After the watch connects to the sensor, an icon appears at the top of the screen.
