W184_NA_Rev.03.qxd 11/1/06 11:24 AM Page 1 Timex® Fitness Sensors Heart Rate Sensor Speed + Distance Sensor Watches are for more than keeping time. Digital technology gives your watch the ability to display your heart rate or measure your speed and distance traveled. These functions require the use of external sensors that transmit information wirelessly to your watch. This booklet provides instructions for properly setting up, operating and maintaining these devices. Look for the section that is appropriate for the type of device you have. Register your product at www.timex.com For information on using your watch, consult the watch instruction booklet. W184_NA_Rev.03.qxd 11/1/06 11:24 AM Page 2 Heart Rate Monitor 3. Start the Heart Rate Monitor: Refer to the user manual for your watch for detailed instructions on viewing heart rate data. How the Digital Heart Rate Monitor Works Warning The Heart Rate Monitor is a combination of a Heart Rate Sensor and a sport watch. The Heart Rate Sensor attaches to your chest and measures the electrical signals generated by the heart as it is beating. Using this information, it then calculates your heart rate and transmits it to your watch. You simply glance at the watch during exercise/training to make sure you are in the appropriate heart rate range to maintain or improve your fitness level. This is not a medical device and is not recommended for use by persons with serious heart conditions. You should always consult your physician before beginning or modifying an exercise program. Interference with the radio signal, poor contact between your skin and the chest strap, and other factors may prevent accurate transmission of heart rate data. How to Use the Digital Heart Rate Monitor Maintenance 1. Wet the Heart Rate Sensor pads with tap water. If necessary, use a heart rate monitor Electrode Gel for better contact. Good contact between the skin and the sensor pads is ESSENTIAL for proper operation of the Heart Rate Monitor. 2. Put on the chest strap. Fasten the strap snugly around your chest, just below Sensor Pads the breasts. Be sure the transmitter is centered on the chest and is right side up so the logo can be read by someone facing you. Rinse Heart Rate Sensor and strap in fresh water to avoid build up of materials that can interfere with the measurement of your heart rate. Transmitter Battery Life and Replacement Battery life of the transmitter should exceed two years, based upon using it an hour a day. Greater usage will shorten the battery life. Replace transmitter battery when any of the following occur: • The watch no longer receives heart rate information from the chest transmitter when properly worn on the chest. • Error messages (COMM ERR, SIGNAL LOST) appear with increased frequency on the display. W184_NA_Rev.03.qxd 11/1/06 11:24 AM Page 4 Battery Replacement Water Resistance NOTE: You’ll need to have a device (such as a watch) capable of displaying heart rate information to verify that the new battery has been inserted correctly. Use a coin to open the battery compartment cover (back of sensor). • Insert new battery (CR2032 or equivalent) with “+” facing you. • Push the reset button next to the battery. Use a toothpick or straightened paper clip. • Reinstall battery cover. • Perform quick test of the unit: 1. Move away from sources of electrical or radio interference. 2. Liberally moisten the Heart Rate Sensor pads and put the chest strap around your chest, securely against your skin. 3. Activate the heart rate monitor function on the watch. 4. Within a few seconds, the heart symbol on the watch display should begin flashing, indicating that the sensor is active. This confirms that the battery was installed correctly. NOTE: A heart rate value does not need to appear on the display during this test. IF FLASHING HEART DOES NOT APPEAR ON WATCH: • Press the reset switch in the battery compartment again and replace the battery cover. • Reinstall the battery, and repeat test procedure above. The Heart Rate Sensor withstands water pressure to 60 p.s.i. See chart at end of booklet for equivalents. WARNING: The Heart Rate Sensor will not display heart rate when operated under water. Speed + Distance Sensor How the Speed and Distance System Works The Speed + Distance (S+D) Sensor acquires signals from orbiting GPS (Global Positioning System) satellites to determine your position and changes in position anywhere on the globe. This information is transmitted wirelessly to your watch so that it can compute your speed, pace and distance traveled. For additional information on determining your speed and distance, see the instructions for your watch. About GPS Lock Times • On first use, the S+D Sensor can take up to 5 minutes or even longer to establish a link with the satellites. After that, the unit typically needs only one minute. • If you move hundreds of miles from the location where you last used the S+D Sensor or if you leave the S+D Sensor powered up indoors for long periods of time before going outdoors, the search may take longer than expected. W184_NA_Rev.03.qxd 11/1/06 11:24 AM Page 6 • For shortest GPS lock times, try to minimize movement while the indicator light is flashing red. Operating the S+D Sensor For best results, the Sensor needs a clear view of the sky. • Press and hold the S+D SENSOR ON/OFF button to turn on the receiver. You should be outdoors in an open area. If the button light glows red immediately (continuously, not flashing), the battery is exhausted to the point where GPS operation is not possible and the battery must be replaced. The ON/OFF button on the S+D Sensor will initially flash red while the S+D Sensor calculates its position relative to the GPS satellites. The text “SEARCHING” may appear on the watch display if using a compatible Timex® watch. • The ON/OFF button will flash green when the S+D Sensor has successfully acquired signals from the satellites. Speed and distance information is now being transmitted to the watch (or other device). • To turn off the S+D Sensor, press and hold the S+D SENSOR ON/OFF button for one second. The button will glow red while you are holding the button and then go out, indicating that the S+D Sensor has shut down. • The S+D Sensor will shut itself off automatically if any of the following events occur: — The battery becomes exhausted. — No motion is detected for 15 consecutive minutes. — No GPS signals are detected for 15 consecutive minutes. S+D Sensor ON/OFF Removable Arm Band Battery Hatch Wearing the Speed and Distance S+D Sensor For best results, strap the S+D Sensor to your upper arm. You may also clip it to your waist. Wear your watch so it is always within 1 meter (about 3 feet) of the S+D Sensor. Be sure the sensor is right side up so the GPS logo can be read by someone facing you. W184_NA_Rev.03.qxd 11/1/06 11:24 AM Page 8 Any clothing worn over the S+D Sensor must be dry and free of metal. Wearing the S+D Sensor on your upper arm • Please make sure that the belt clip is removed. To remove the belt clip, grasp clip and gently pop off. (Fig. 1) To replace clip line up tab on clip with slot on sensor and gently pop clipon to unit. • Pull armband through the adjustable end so that it fits snugly around your arm. Fig. 3 Wearing the S+D Sensor on your belt Fig. 1 • If attached, remove armband by sliding out plastic attachment. • Insert belt clip by lining up tab on belt clip with slot on Sensor and pop into place. • If the armband is not attached, slide plastic attachment with elastic strap into the slot of the S+D Sensor as shown. (Fig. 2) • Slide the elastic strap through the open end of the attachment, and fix it in place with the hook and loop closure. • Slip the sensor and strap over your hand and onto your upper arm. Watch must be worn on same arm. (Fig. 3) • Wear sensor on same side of body as watch. Fig. 2 W184_NA_Rev.03.qxd 11/1/06 11:24 AM Page 10 Resolving S+D Sensor Errors and Error Messages PROBLEM • The S+D Sensor cannot lock onto GPS satellites (ON/OFF button never changes to flashing green). • The GPS S+D Sensor loses signals from the satellites during use. The watch may display a message that the GPS signal is weak. SOLUTION • Move to a more open outdoor area. • Move away from metal objects. • Replace the battery in the S+D Sensor. NOTE: The system can maintain accuracy for short periods when GPS signals are lost. PROBLEM • Watch displays FATAL GPS ERROR message. SOLUTION • The S+D Sensor is damaged; contact Timex Customer Service. S+D Sensor Battery Life and Replacement The battery in the S+D Sensor will last approximately 12 hours. The S+D Sensor itself does not indicate the condition of its battery, except if the battery is completely exhausted (as noted in the section “Operating the S+D Sensor”). Instead, this information 10 is broadcast to your watch along with your performance data. Refer to the user manual for your watch for the procedure to check the S+D Sensor’s battery level. Replace battery • Flip out the half-circle handle on the battery hatch (located on the side of the S&D Sensor case) and turn it counter-clockwise to unscrew. • Remove the battery hatch. • Remove old battery and insert one (1) new AA battery. Observe the +/- markings inside the battery compartment to ensure the new battery is properly aligned. • Replace the battery hatch and tighten the cap by turning clockwise. Do not over-tighten. Maintenance Rinse the S+D Sensor and its strap in fresh water periodically to avoid buildup of materials that can interfere with the measurement of your speed and distance. 11 W184_NA_Rev.03.qxd 11/1/06 11:24 AM Page 12 All Sensors INTERNATIONAL WARRANTY Water-Resistance (U.S. LIMITED WARRANTY) The level of water-resistance (if any) is marked on the case.
