Quick Start Steps

Quick Start StepsQuick Start Steps

Quick Start Steps

Follow these basic instructions to begin using your speed distance monitor (footpod), heart rate monitor, and bike

speed/cadence monitor and discover the functionality of your SMW1 Sports Monitoring Watch.

SDM2 Speed Distance Monitor

POWER ON

• Press and hold the button for 2 seconds to power on the footpod. The red light flashes to indicate the pod is

powered on.

POWER OFF

• Press and hold the button for 2 seconds to power off the pod. If left on, the pod will automatically turn off 30

minutes after foot motion has stopped.

SECURE FIT

• The SDM2 Speed Distance Monitor (footpod) must be attached securely to the shoe.

• The footpod must stay in place on the shoe during running for optimum accuracy. Tight lacing will reduce

jiggling or bouncing of the pod, which can be detrimental to speed and distance results.

Preliminary document not for redistribution. Company confidential. Product features and specifications may vary.

HRM1 Heart Rate Monitor

POWER ON

• The HRM1 will turn on automatically and remain on while it is worn around the chest.

POWER OFF

• The HRM1 will turn off automatically 5 minutes after being removed from the chest.

SECURE FIT

• Proper placement of the HRM1 Heart Rate Monitor is important for optimum capture of heart rate pulses.

• Wear the HRM1 directly on your skin and wet both sensors on the back with water or biogel.

• The HRM1 should fit snugly enough to remain in place during your exercise session.

• Wipe down the HRM1 with a wet cloth before and after use. Do not immerse in water.

Preliminary document not for redistribution. Company confidential. Product features and specifications may vary.

BKM Bike Speed and/or Cadence Monitors

The BKM Bike Monitors mount easily onto the rear triangle of a bike frame.

• The BKM monitors turn on automatically and remain on as long as they detect magnet events (5-minute

timeout).

• Securely attach both speed and cadence monitors and ensure the magnet pickups pass within 5 mm of the

trigger areas. Sliding motion and misalignment will affect accuracy.

Preliminary document not for redistribution. Company confidential. Product features and specifications may vary.

SWM1 Wristwatch Quick Start

Turn on the footpod, heart rate monitor, and/or bike monitor and bring the device[s] within range of the watch

(<2 meters).

The watch will search and connect to all ‘paired’ devices when placed into SPORT mode.

• If your products came packaged together (watch, footpod, heart rate monitor, bike monitor), pairing will

have already been performed and you do not need to perform additional steps.

• To pair devices to the watch (i.e., to add a new device or to re-pair a heart rate monitor after battery

replacement), refer to page 21, Device Pairing.

Enable or disable the zone alarm. If enabled, you will receive an audible beep when above or below zones.

Enable the RUN, HRM, bike speed, and/or bike cadence zones for run speed/pace, heart rate, bike

speed/pace, and/or bike cadence readings, respectively. Adjust the HI and LO values to set a desired target

training zone.

Zone audible alerts and arrows [][] will be activated under the following conditions:

Device Pairing

Each sports device (footpod, heart rate monitor) has a unique digital ID that must be stored in the wristwatch to

enable the watch to connect to the appropriate device during activity. Each device must be ‘paired’ with the watch.

• Prior to pairing, the footpod and heart rate monitor must first be turned on, see page 5, Quick Start Steps.

• To place the wristwatch into the pairing mode, enter the SPORT mode Adjust menu and execute “PUSH PAIR”,

as detailed on page 13, SPORT Mode Adjustment Settings.

• Pairing will complete within 15 seconds. A message “Paired Pod” or “Paired Heart” indicates success.

• *** Ensure that only the device to be paired is within 10 meters of the watch. This will prevent unintentional

pairing with wrong devices.

• *** Only one device ID per device type (footpod, heart rate monitor) can be stored in the watch at a time. If a

device is found during a pair procedure, the previously stored device is overwritten. If no device of a particular

type is found during a pair procedure, then the stored ID remains intact.

INITIAL SYSTEM SETUP

• If your sports system was shipped as a complete set (wristwatch, footpod, and heart rate monitor) then pairing

before use is not necessary; pairing is done at the factory. Devices will therefore be found automatically

within 10 seconds when they are turned on and the watch is placed into SPORT mode.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

• The pair operation must be repeated following heart rate monitor battery replacement, since the heart rate

monitor regenerates its unique ID upon battery replacement.

• The pair operation does NOT need to be repeated following wristwatch or footpod battery replacement.

NEW DEVICES

• To pair a newly purchased footpod or heart rate monitor into an existing watch system, perform a pairing

operation in isolation with the new device. The previously paired device will be overwritten.

Preliminary document not for redistribution. Company confidential. Product features and specifications may vary.

Footpod Calibration

The accuracy of the speed distance monitor (footpod) is 97% out of the box for a majority of users. Some users with

certain stride characteristics, such as pronation and supination, will not obtain 97% accuracy until a simple

calibration procedure is performed. Calibration can be done either manually or using the auto-calibration feature.

Manual Calibration

Manual CalibrationManual Calibration

Manual Calibration

• Manual calibration involves the adjustment of a multiplication factor that is then applied to all future speed

and distance measurements.

• The nominal value of the manual calibration factor is 1.000.

• The nominal value can be adjusted upwards or downwards if the athlete has a known reference distance to

calculate the calibration factor appropriately.

• The manual calibration factor will be automatically adjusted following an auto-calibration process, and can be

recorded for future reference (for example to track calibration values for multiple users).

Auto

AutoAuto

Auto-

-Calibration

CalibrationCalibration

Calibration

• Perform auto-calibration by running a known ‘truth’ distance, such as a 400-meter track. For best results,

choose a truth distance between 400 and 1000 meters

• After running, adjust the measured distance to the ‘actual’ distance that you ran.

• Auto-calibration will automatically calculate and apply the required calibration factor for you.

• *** When calibrating, place the footpod on the same foot that you will typically use for all runs.

• *** Perform the run at your typical running pace. Note that the footpod will still give accurate data at other

speeds.
