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 modules 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.
Heart Rate Monitor How the Digital Heart Rate Monitor Works 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.
battery has been inserted correctly. Use a coin to open the battery compartment cover (back of transmitter). • 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.
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 status indicator light glows red immediately (continuously, not flashing), the batteries are exhausted to the point where GPS operation is not possible and the batteries must be replaced.
Wearing the S+D Sensor on your upper arm Wearing the S+D Sensor on your belt • Loosen adjustable armband and wrap the Sensor around your upper arm. • On the back of the case, lift and turn latch ring a quarter-turn counterclockwise. • Remove the back of the case. • Remove armband from back of S+D Sensor. • Insert clip into slot on mounting bracket (B). Orient clip horizontally or vertically as indicated. • Pull armband so that it fits snugly around your arm and fasten with the hook and loop closure.
Resolving S+D Sensor Errors and Error Messages S+D Sensor Battery Life and Replacement PROBLEM • The S+D Sensor cannot lock onto GPS satellites (Indicator light 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. The batteries in the S+D Sensor will last approximately 12 hours.
