Altitude settings

Smoothing: Smoothing is useful if you feel that the displayed altitude value appears to be too erratic. Smoothing applies an averaging filter and may cause the displayed altitude value to respond more slowly to changes. You can turn altitude smoothing off or on.

Update ascent rate: Set the Watch to update the period at which the ascent rate is calculated. You can choose intervals of 30 seconds, or 1, 10, 30, or 60 minutes. Set this feature shorter for faster vertical activities such as skiing or longer for slower vertical activities such as climbing.

Hands-Free settings

Hands-free features automate chronograph features, freeing you to focus on your workout instead of operating your Watch. Even when enabled, you can still take manual splits without affecting the hands-free operation. Configure the following hands-free settings:

Auto split: This feature enables the chronograph to automatically take splits based on elapsed distance or time. For instance, you can configure the Watch to take a split every 10 minutes, or, if you set Auto Split to 1 MI, then the Watch will automatically take a split every mile.

Auto start: This feature enables the chronograph to start when you start moving. It may take a few seconds for the GPS-3D Sensor to detect movement, causing a slight delay in start time.

60

Auto stop: This feature enables the chronograph to stop when you stop moving. It may take a few seconds for the GPS-3D Sensor to detect that you have stopped moving, causing a slight delay in stop time.

Sync timer & chrono: This feature allows you to set the interval timer and the chronograph to start and stop simultaneously so you can record chronograph data when you use the interval timer. The completion of an interval in Interval Timer Mode will cause the Watch to take a split in the chronograph. Use this feature if you want a record of your performance for each interval in your workout. Each interval corresponds to one lap or segment in Lap Data Mode.

You must turn the sync timer & chrono setting off if you want the timer to switch to Chronograph Mode at the end of a countdown in Basic Timer Mode.

Watch settings

Configure the following Watch settings:

Night-Mode® feature: When enabled, the INDIGLO® night- light turns on when you press any button. This feature disables itself after eight hours.

Hourly chime: When enabled, the Watch will chime at the top of every hour.

Button beep: When enabled, the Watch will emit a beep when you press any button.
