the alert type (AUDIBLE, VISUAL, or NO ALRT) in Configure
mode will still operate while you run the interval timer. The Watch
only ignores the limit settings.
Keep in mind that these settings affect the target zone alert
only.
The target zone alert settings used in the interval timer do not
affect the heart rate statistical data tracked and displayed in
Summary Mode.
Interval Mode tips & tricks
You can set the Watch to take a split when an interval ends by
using SYNC TIMER & CHRONO (see page 44). This will override
the Auto split function and allow you to have a record of your
performance for each interval.
Interval Mode example
For cross training purposes, you decide to add a one-hour spin
class to your workout routine one time per week. You decide to
use Interval Mode to help you track both time and heart rate for
your class. You set up WKOUT 1 as follows: WARM-UP for 5
minutes with NO TZ (indicating no heart rate goal), INTVL 1 for
5 minutes at Z4: 156 – 175 (in beats per minute), INTVL 2 for 1
minute in Z3: 136 – 156, INTVL 3 for 10 minutes in Z4 and
INTVL 4 for 2 minutes in Z3. You then set the # OF REPS to 3,
indicating you want to repeat INTVL 1 through INTVL 4 three
times. Finally, you set the COOL DOWN to 5 minutes with NO
TZ. This entire workout takes you approximately 60 minutes and
helps you track both time and endurance goals.
7. Press DONE (MODE) to save your workout and complete the
setting procedure.
For Interval Timer Mode, you can set the following values:
➤ Warm up (set target heart rate zone and time)
➤ Intervals 1 through 4 (set target heart rate zone and time)
➤ Number of Reps (does not include warm-up or cool down
intervals)
➤ Cool down (set target heart rate zone and time)

alert for each interval. You may also choose to use no target zone
alert. While you run the interval timer, the target zone alert
settings you select will override the heart rate target zone alert
you set in Configure Mode (see page 40). However, the setting for
