Starting the Bodylink® System

When using the Performance Monitor, you can view real-time data

from a Heart Rate Sensor or Speed + Distance Sensor, or both, in

Time of Day, Chrono and Timer. The procedure to do this is the

same in all modes, though the data that you can view and their

position on the display in each mode will vary.

1. Make sure you’re wearing your Heart Rate Sensor or Speed +

Distance Sensor, or both, and that they are powered up and

functional.

2. Stand at least 6 feet (2 meters) away from any other users of

fitness monitor systems and from any source of radio interference

such as electrical equipment, power lines, etc.

3. Press and release the DISPLAY button. This tells the watch to

look for any Bodylink

®

sensors nearby; it will search for one

minute. The antenna icon will appear on the watch display,

indicating that the Bodylink

®

system is active.

16

NOTE: Though the Bodylink

®

system has a working range of

about 3 feet (1 meter) from the sensors to the watch, for the most

reliable operation, make sure that the watch is as close to the

sensors as possible when starting the system up.

4. When the watch has successfully detected transmissions from the

sensors, the watch display will switch to a new format showing

some or all of the sensor data, depending on the mode. Time of

Day and Timer show the data in the lower line exclusively, while

Chrono allows up to three lines of performance data.

Viewing Performance Data

Press and release the DISPLAY button to select the data or

combination of data that you wish to view during your workout. For

your convenience, a “banner” showing the names of the information

and their position on the display is shown briefly before showing the

data itself.

Here are a few more things you should know to use the watch

effectively:

• While in the Chrono, press and release SET/FORMAT to swap

the positions of the information in the upper and middle display

lines. This allows you to view the data most important in the

larger middle display line.

17

NOTE: As a convenience, Chrono and Timer will automatically

search for Bodylink

®

sensors for fifteen seconds upon entering

the mode.

589-095006_W188_NA_EN_589-095006_W188_NA_EN 3/11/11 8:39 AM Page 16

Watch messages

When using the Watch with the Fitness Sensors, the Watch may

display messages to communicate the status of the Sensor in

conjunction with the Watch. Messages include:

❖

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.

❖

NO DATA FROM HRM (GPS) The Watch is not receiving data

from the HR or the GPS-3D Sensor. Ensure that the Sensor is not

more than 3 feet (1 meter) away from the Watch, is operating, or

has not inadvertently locked onto 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.

❖

FATAL GPS ERROR The GPS-3D Sensor has encountered a

severe internal error. Contact Timex Customer Service.

19

• 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.

18

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.

Time of Day Mode

Time of Day Mode terminology

UTC: Universal Time, Coordinated (formerly known as GMT)

describes the local time zone in relationship to the Greenwich

Meridian. For example, New York City is in the -5 UTC zone, since

New York is five hours earlier than Greenwich Meridian; Moscow

is +3 UTC, since it is three hours later than Greenwich Meridian.

Time of Day Mode functions

Your Watch can act as an ordinary watch to display the time, date,

and day for two different time zones, using a 12- or 24-hour

format.

TO SYNCHRONIZE TIME OF DAY WITH FITNESS SENSORS

When you first activate the GPS-3D Sensor in conjunction with

your Watch, you can expect one of the following scenarios:

❖

If you activate the GPS-3D Sensor before setting the time of

day, the Watch will synchronize both T1 and T2 with UTC. You

will need to adjust the hour for both time zones to your local

time.

❖

If you activate the GPS-3D Sensor after setting the time of day,

the Watch maintains the hour and date settings and

synchronizes minutes and seconds to UTC for each time zone.

Chronograph Mode

Chronograph Mode terminology

Chronograph: The chronograph records time segments for the

duration of your activity.

Lap: Lap time records the time for one segment of your activity.

Split: Split time records the total elapsed time since the beginning

of your current activity.

Taking a split: When you take a split, the chronograph will

complete timing one lap and begin timing a new one.

Chronograph Mode functions

Chronograph Mode operates as the main workout data center for

your Watch. It can record elapsed time for up to 100 hours. It can

also register information for up to 100 laps, including data for

speed, pace, and distance (using the GPS-3D Sensor); and average

heart rate (using the HR Sensor).

NOTE: If the Watch does not detect either Fitness Sensor, the

day of the week shows on the bottom line of the display.

You can continue viewing the day of the week while using

the Fitness Sensors by hiding performance data (for data

hiding information, see “Watch settings” on page 67). If

you choose Day of Week, it will appear as though the

Watch does not receive any data.

Time of Day Mode example

Assume that you live in San Francisco and work with a client in

Singapore. Like all busy people, it is imperative you keep track

of time, so you set T1 to your local time. But it is also important

to have a quick reminder of your client's time, so you set T2 to

Singapore time. With both time zones available, you can quickly

check your client's time or even switch your monitor to display

T2 when you travel to Singapore.

Vertical Mode

Vertical Mode terminology

Ascent rate: How quickly you climb or descend.

Vertical speed: Another term for ascent rate.

Vertical Mode functions

Vertical Mode operates as a viewing mode in conjunction with the

GPS-3D Sensor with a focus on displaying altitudinal data. In

particular, Vertical Mode tailors the Watch to view data related to

vertical activities (for example, climbing or skiing).

NOTE: If you do not use the GPS-3D Sensor, Vertical Mode

operates identically to Chronograph Mode, displaying only

time and lap information.

❖

Elevation: Difference between your current altitude and the

altitude when you started the chronograph (requires GPS-3D

Sensor).

Chronograph Mode example

Assume that you run regularly, and you want to gain information

about your current workout routine so that you can set fitness

goals for yourself. You use Chronograph Mode to record lap time

for each of the three stages of your workout. When you finish

your workout, use the lap information to determine distance and

pace, both per lap and as a total of all three laps. If you ran uphill

for part of your workout, you can also determine your elevation

to learn how far you climbed. With your current fitness level in

❖

Distance: Distance traveled since the GPS-3D Sensor was

started (requires GPS-3D Sensor).

❖

Altitude: Current height above sea level (requires GPS-3D

Sensor).

❖

Elevation: Difference between your current altitude and the

altitude when you started the chronograph (requires GPS-3D

Sensor).

Vertical Mode example

You are heli-skiing in Banff on a run estimated at 2,700 vertical

feet (214 vertical meters). Curious about the accuracy of the

estimate as well as how long it will take you to make your run,

you start your GPS-3D Sensor, navigate to Vertical Mode and

press START as you take off down the mountain. At the end of

your run, you press STOP and then DISPLAY until you see

Ascent Rate and Elevation (expressed in a negative number since

you traveled downhill). Use this information to see how fast you

skiied and compare the Watch’s expressed elevation to your

guide’s estimate.

Finish Mode

Finish Mode functions

Finish Mode allows you to predict how much time it will take you

to finish a specified distance based on current GPS-3D Sensor

data. To help you stay on pace for your predicted finish, you can

also set the Watch to alert you if you are moving either too quickly

or too slowly for your desired pace.

NOTE: If you do not use the GPS-3D Sensor, Finish Mode

operates identically to Chronograph Mode, displaying only

time and lap information.

You must reset the chronograph to zero prior to operating

Finish Mode or it will not operate properly.

❖

Pre-set or custom distance [(for custom set the distance (up to

999.99) and the unit (NM, KM, or MI)]

❖

Target time

❖

Alert option (an audible alert will cause the Watch to both beep

and flash the predicted finish time and a silent alert will only

flash the predicted finish time)

TO VIEW PERFORMANCE DATA IN FINISH MODE

When using Fitness Sensors with your Watch, scroll through

performance data by pressing and releasing DISPLAY.

Performance data viewing options for Finish Mode include:

❖

Finish Time: The predicted finish time based on your current

speed and distance. The finish time will flash if you move

slower or quicker than your predicted finish time. If you stop

moving, the Watch replaces the finish time with STOPPED.

(requires GPS-3D Sensor)

❖

Pace: Current velocity, expressed in minutes per selected

distance unit, such as miles or kilometers (requires GPS-3D

Sensor).

Navigate Mode

Navigate Mode terminology

Waypoints: A point between the beginning and ending point on a

route. Waypoints serve as landmarks during an activity that you

can use to help you find your way from your ending point back to

your beginning point.

Heading: The direction you are traveling in relation to North.

The Watch includes a numeric heading display in Navigate Mode.

NOTE: In Configure Mode, you can set your Watch to read True

North (the geographic North Pole where all longitude lines

meet) or Magnetic North (North in alignment with the

earth's magnetic field). See “Unit settings” on page 68

for more information.

Finish Mode example

You are training for a 100 KM bicycle race. Last year you rode in

the same race and finished in 4 hours, 15 minutes. This year your

goal is to finish in less than 4 hours. You read in a training

magazine that when training for a race, you should devote one

day a week to riding at a distance equal to your event working

toward your goal time. To help keep you on pace, you set Finish

Mode to 100 KM for a distance and 4 hours for a time. You set

the Watch to alert you audibly when you go slower than your

pace to help keep you on track as you ride.
