9.0 ACQUIRING SATELLITE SIGNALS
For optimal performance while playing, ensure that the SW2 has a clear view of the
sky at all times. Avoid being around buildings, obstructions, heavy foliage, low areas
with adjacent obstructions, or reflective objects (such as metal/glass structures) while
using the SW2. While designed to be used and worn as a normal watch, orienting the
SW2 towards the sky provides the best reception and accuracy. The internal antenna
is located at the 6 o’clock position of the SW2. Allow the SW2 to have a few minutes
to acquire satellite signals before play.
10.0 ODOMETER MODE

• Calories: How many calories you have burned so far.
• Distance: How far you have gone since you started.
• Duration: How much time has elapsed since you
started.
In addition, your SW2 will log your GPS location every 5 seconds. This real-time log
can be saved to your SW2 at the end of your session. At any time, you can access
previous saves by selecting SAVES from the main menu. Your SW2 can hold up to
20 Saves at one time depending on the length of each session. If your SW2 is full, the
oldest Save will be removed automatically to make room. Saved Odometer sessions
will be uploaded to your SkyGolf 360 account when you sync. From SkyGolf 360, you
