ANT+ Sensor Troubleshooting

Problem

Solution

I have a third-party

ANT+ sensor.

Make sure that it is compatible with the Forerunner

(

www.garmin.com/intosports

).

I cannot pair the foot

pod.

GPS needs to be disabled.

1. Go indoors.

2. While the Forerunner is trying to locate satellites, press

page.

3. Select

Yes.

The heart rate data is

inaccurate or erratic.

• Make sure that the heart rate monitor is snug against your body.

• Warm up for 5–10 minutes.

• Reapply moisture to the electrodes. Use water, saliva, or

electrode gel.

• Clean the electrodes. Dirt and sweat residue on the electrodes

can interfere with heart rate signals.

• Position the electrodes on your back instead of your chest.

• Wear a cotton shirt or wet your shirt if suitable for your activity.

Synthetic fabrics that rub or flap against the heart rate monitor

can create static electricity that interferes with heart rate

signals.

• Move away from sources of strong electromagnetic fields and

some 2.4 GHz wireless sensors, which can interfere with your

heart rate monitor. Sources of interference may include high-

voltage power lines, electric motors, microwave ovens, 2.4 GHz

cordless phones, and wireless LAN access points.
