The chronograph

➤Speed + Distance Sensor: The Speed + Distance Sensor (GPS-3D Sensor) tracks speed, pace, distance traveled, altitude, and more, using GPS based technology. The Fitness Sensor User Guide provides detailed instructions for setting up and using your GPS-3D Sensor. Note that sometimes the Watch will refer to the GPS-3D Sensor as the S+D Sensor.

➤GPS: The GPS-3D Sensor uses information gathered from global positioning satellites (GPS) to calculate your speed, distance, and elevation.

The chronograph

As you learn about your Watch, the word chronograph may cause confusion. Remember this: a chronograph is a tool for measuring time. You will notice a Chronograph Mode, but Vertical and Finish Modes operate from the chronograph. Any time your Watch functions as a timing tool, it operates using chronograph (or timing) functionality.
