Optional Accessories

1.Polar s3/s3+ stride sensorTM W.I.N.D.: transmits the running speed/pace and distance measurements to the training computer. Also measures running cadence and stride length.

2.Polar G3/G5 GPS sensorTM W.I.N.D.: provides speed, distance and location data, as well as track information, in all outdoor sports using Global Positioning System (GPS) technology. You can transfer your track data to the Polar ProTrainer 5 software to view in Google Earth or to convert into a GPX file. For more information, see software help.

3.Polar Cycling Speed SensorTM W.I.N.D.: measures speed and distance when cycling.

4.Polar Cadence Sensor TM W.I.N.D.: measures cadence, i.e. crank revolutions per minute when cycling.

When using the Polar G3/G5 GPS sensor with a Polar s3/s3+ stride sensor or Polar cycling speed sensor, the GPS will only be used for location and route tracking. However, when the s3/s3+ stride sensor or cycling speed sensor is not in range (e.g. the type of sport changes during training), the training computer automatically retrieves speed and distance data from the GPS sensor. This way the speed and distance measurement is secured throughout your training session. To start using the s3/s3+ stride sensor or the cycling speed sensor again, long press LIGHT and select Seek sensor.
