1 Purpose
The purpose of this document is to provide user instructions for the SDM3 Speed and
Distance Monitor.
2 Overview
The SDM3 represents a next-generation technology platform of small, low-power speed and
distance sensors. The sensor is designed to be worn clipped to the shoe laces. Real-time
running/walking information including distance, instantaneous speed, and cadence is sent
from the foot sensor to the wrist unit for real-time display. Powered by a coin cell battery, the
sensor communicates to the wrist unit via RF data transfer operating in the 2.4 GHz ISM
band and using Dynastream’s ANT+SPORT network. The SDM3 is designed to work with
Dynastream’s SMWx Sport Monitoring Watch family and is capable of working with any
ANT+SPORT based watch that is enabled for ‘SDM’ sensor device types.
3 User Instructions
3.1 Shoe Attachment
The SDM3 footpod must be attached securely to the laces of the running shoe using the
supplied clip, as shown below. The pod must remain firmly in place for optimum accuracy.
Tight lacing will reduce jiggling or bouncing of the pod, which can be detrimental to speed
and distance accuracy. To remove the pod from the shoe, press down firmly on the front
tips of the clip to disengage the clip from the recessions in the pod and remove pod from
clip.
1) Slip the pod clip under the laces of an untied shoe.
2) Tie shoe to secure clip in place.
3) Insert back of pod into the clip matching the recessions in the edge of the footpod with
the protrusions in the clip.
4) Press firmly on the front of the footpod until it “clicks” into place securing it firmly to the
laces.
3.2 Turning the Footpod On and Off
The SDM3 foot pod will turn itself on automatically once adequate motion is sensed
(equivalent of 3 - 4 strides), as indicated by three blinks of the red LED. If the LED remains
solid upon power up this is indicative that the pod is not transmitting data and may require
service. After running, the pod will automatically turn off after 30 minutes of inactivity,
indicated by two (2) blinks of the red LED.

3.3 Pairing the Footpod
Each SDM3 footpod has a unique digital ID that must be stored in the wristwatch to enable
the watch to connect to the footpod during activity. Therefore, the SDM3 footpod must be
“paired” with an ANT+SPORT enabled wrist watch in order to display performance data to
the user. This is only necessary when using your footpod for the first time, or if your watch
has been previously paired to a different footpod. If the footpod and watch have been
purchased together they should already be paired. If purchased separately, pairing is
required prior to initial use. Turn the footpod on to put it into pairing mode. The footpod can
now be paired with the watch. Consult your sports watch manual for further instructions on
pairing with the footpod.
3.4 Footpod Calibration
The accuracy of the SDM3 footpod is ≥95% out of the box for a majority of users. Some
users with certain stride characteristics, such as pronation and supination, may experience
lower accuracy but this will improve once a simple calibration procedure is performed. The
SDM3 footpod provides >98% accuracy for a majority of users when calibration has been
performed. Calibration must be performed over an accurately measured distance, such as a
400 meter track. The footpod should be calibrated over a minimum distance of 400 m.
Consult your sports watch manual for further instructions on calibrating the pod for improved
accuracy, and displaying real-time run data.
3.5 Battery Replacement
The SDM3 footpod uses one CR2032 lithium battery, which is estimated to last a minimum
200 hours (at 20
o
C). The footpod will automatically power off after thirty minutes of inactivity
to preserve battery life (as described above). When the battery is getting low, six (6) blinks
of the red LED are observed at power up instead of the normal three (3) blinks, indicating
that approximately (5) hours of active battery life remain.
The battery door is located on the back side of the pod and can be opened with most
medium to large sized coins. Insert the coin into the slot on the battery door. Applying firm
pressure, turn the coin counterclockwise to open and remove the battery door and old
battery. Insert the new battery with the positive end facing up, as shown below. Replace the
battery door and insert the coin into the slot. Applying firm pressure, turn the coin clockwise
to close and seal the battery door. The footpod should turn on when the new battery is
inserted. The pairing operation need NOT be repeated upon battery replacement.
