If you want to stop monitoring data from your Bodylink® sensors, hold the DISPLAY button down until the message HOLD TO SHUT OFF RCVR is displayed on the watch display. Continue holding the DISPLAY button for a few more seconds; the watch will beep indicating that the radio link between the watch and the sensors has been shut down.

TIP: If you are already viewing data from one sensor, for example, the Heart Rate Sensor, and you wish to also view data from the Speed + Distance Sensor, simply press and hold the DISPLAY button until the watch emits a short beep and the antenna icon begins flashing. The watch is now searching for a second Bodylink® sensor. When it detects this second device, the antenna icon will stop flashing and the display may change to a new format that includes the new information. Press and release the DISPLAY button (as detailed previously) to view various combinations of two sensor’s data.

When using the Watch with the Fitness Sensors, the Watch may display messages to communicate the status of either of the Sensors in conjunction with the Watch. Messages include:

NO DATA FROM HRM (GPS) The Watch is not receiving data from either the HR or GPS-3D Sensor. Ensure the Sensor is not more than 3 feet (1 meter) away from the Watch, is operating, or has not inadvertently locked on to someone else’s Sensor. The Watch will attempt to establish a connection for one minute after this message displays.

NOISY DATA FROM HRM (GPS) The Watch is experiencing radio interference. Try to move away from any potential sources of interference (for example, televisions, monitors, or motorized devices). The Watch will attempt to establish a connection for

30 seconds after this message displays.

SEARCHING The GPS-3D Sensor is still trying to link to GPS data. You cannot view speed, pace, distance, or positional information until the Sensor locates GPS satellites.

WEAK GPS SIGNAL The GPS-3D Sensor lost its link with GPS satellites. The GPS-3D Sensor operates more accurately in more open areas (such as an area without a lot of tree or cloud cover) and at quicker speeds.

FATAL GPS ERROR The GPS-3D Sensor has encountered a severe internal error. Contact Timex Customer Service.
