4. Polar Cadence Sensor
TM
W.I.N.D.: measures cadence, i.e. crank revolutions per minute when
cycling.
When using the Polar G3 GPS sensor with a Polar s3 stride sensor or Polar cycling speed sensor, the GPS
will only be used for location and route tracking. However, when the s3 stride sensor or cycling speed
sensor is not in range (e.g. the type of sport changes during training), the training computer automatically
retrieves speed and distance data from the GPS sensor. This way the speed and distance measurement is
secured throughout your training session. To start using the s3 stride sensor or the cycling speed sensor
again, long press LIGHT and select Seek sensor.
