Configure the following heart rate settings:

ϖTZ1 and TZ2: For each of the two target zones, you may select from one of five preset heart rate zones based on a percentage of your maximum heart rate. You may also customize each limit to your own selected upper and lower limits. Since both TZI and TZ2 operate at the same time, you will track more useful data if you do not set the zone limits to overlap with each other.

For information on the importance of tracking heart rate information, refer to Heart Zones¨ Tools for Success.

ϖAudible Alert: You can set the alert to warn you with a beep when you go above, below, or either above or below your heart rate zone, or not to alert you at all.

ϖRecovery: You can set the recovery time to one minute, two minutes, or off. This helps you determine how quickly your heart rate returns to a lower heart rate value at the end of your activity. The quicker you return, the better your fitness level.

ϖMax Heart Rate: Enter your Maximum Heart Rate. This value is used to calculate five preset heart rate zones and serve as a reference for your heart rate expressed as a percentage of maximum.

NOTE: Prior to configuring your heart rate settings, refer to Heart Zones¨ Tools for Success for information on how to determine your maximum heart rate.

GPS-3D SENSOR SETTINGS

Smoothing: Smoothing is useful if you feel that the displayed speed or pace values appear to be too erratic. Smoothing applies an averaging filter and may cause the displayed speed or pace values to respond more slowly to changes.

Configure the following speed and distance settings:

ϖZone Type: Set the Watch to track your speed or your pace and to alert you if you move too slowly or too quickly (alert types include an audible alert that beeps or a silent alert that flashes).

Slowest pace

Fastest speed

Type

Fastest pace

Slowest speed

NOTE: You can set speed and pace limits independently. For instance, set pace limits to control pace for your run and set speed limits to values useful for cycling. Then simply switch between the settings for each activity.

ϖDistance Alert: Set the Watch to alert you for distance intervals. For example, you can set the Watch to alert you for every mile you travel. The distance alert will only function when the chronograph is running.
