No: Altitude calibration canceled is displayed.
Calibrate the altitude to ensure it remains accurate. Set the reference altitude whenever a
reliable reference, such as a peak or a topographic map, is available or when at sea level.
Calibrating the Altitude Automatically
Select Settings > Features > Altitude > AutoCalib > On / Off
By using the altitude Automatic Calibration option, you can adjust the starting elevation to be
set always the same in the beginning of the exercise. Calibrate the elevation manually and
turn the Automatic Calibration (AutoCalib) on. From now on, this elevation will be always
used as the base elevation in the beginning or the exercise, when automatic altitude calibration
is in use. Also, if the Automatic Calibration is turned on and you calibrate the Training
System manually, this new value will be used as a new starting elevation for the Automatic
Calibration option.
If the elevation or air pressure changes significantly, you are prompted to confirm the change.
If you change the elevation,Altitude calibrated to xx m/ft indicates that calibration has
succeeded.If Altitude calibration failed is displayed, re-calibrate the altitude.
You can also set the elevation for the Automatic Calibration also by using the Polar Equine
software. For more information see software help.
Select this option if you train in the same environment. This way, altitude values are always
correct. If the sport profile of the exercise includes automatic calibration ,altitude
measurement always begins at this elevation regardless of the general elevation settings.
RecordingRate
Select Settings > Features > Rec.rate > 1 / 5 / 15 / 60 sec
The Training System can store your heart rate, speed, cadence, power and altitude in 1, 5, 15
or 60 second intervals. A longer interval gives you more recording time, while a shorter
interval allows you to record more heart and other data. This enables accurate data analysis
using the Polar Equine software.
A shorter recording rate consumes the memory of the Training System more rapidly. The
remaining recording time is displayed on the lower row when setting the rate. Default
recording rate is 5 seconds.
When less than 30 minutes of maximum recording time is left, the recording rate changes
automatically to longer recording time (1s > 5s > 15s > 60s). This will maximize recoding
time to record exercise data. When the session ends, the current recording rate will be used in
the next training session.
The following table shows the maximum recording times for each recording rate. The
maximum recording time can be shorter, if you record a large number of short exercises.
