4.1. PC Interface

With the PC Interface you can transfer and store the logs you have gathered with your Suunto X6/X6M to your PC. The logs can be either hiking logs stored in the Suunto X6/X6M logbook files, weather logs stored in the weather memory or chrono logs stored in the chrono memory. When the data has been transferred, you can organize, view and add related information to it easily with the Suunto Activity Manager software.

The PC Interface cable and Suunto Activity Manager are delivered in the same package with your Suunto X6/X6M. The installation instructions for the software can be found on the cover of the Suunto Activity Manager CD-ROM.

4.1.1. Transferring data

Make sure your computer has a free serial port and is not used by other processes. Start transferring the data by attaching the cable to the computer serial port and plugging the other end to your Suunto X6/X6M. You can also use USB port with serial/USB adapter.

The wristop goes automatically to the data transfer mode.
