Your Forerunner device can be used with the Varia Vision
device, Varia
smart bike lights, and rearview radar to improve
situational awareness. See the owner's manual for your Varia
device for more information.

pairing Varia devices (Updating the Software, page 29).
tempe
The tempe is an ANT+ wireless temperature sensor. You can
attach the sensor to a secure strap or loop where it is exposed
to ambient air, and therefore, provides a consistent source of
accurate temperature data. You must pair the tempe with your
device to display temperature data from the tempe.
