ENGLISH

Data from all compatible sensors is sent wirelessly to the training computer over the 2.4 GHz W.I.N.D. technology, proprietary to Polar. This eliminates interference during training.

*When using the training computer with s3+ stride sensor or CS speed sensor W.I.N.D., the training computer retrieves speed and distance data from the sensor and the GPS will only be used for location and route tracking.

Button Functions

The training computer has five buttons that have different functionalities depending on the situation of use.
