Ascent Rate Update: This setting in the ALTITUDE SETTINGS
group determines how often the Watch calculates your ascent rate
(vertical speed). Set this feature shorter for faster vertical
activities such as skiing or longer for slower vertical activities such
as climbing. Refer to page 55 for detailed setting information.
Though not necessary to adjust before your first workout, you may
want to review and configure the speed or pace target zones (page 54),
distance alert (page 54) or additional hands-free features (page 55).
Additional GPS functionality in existing modes
GPS messages
When using the Watch with the GPS-3D Sensor, 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 GPS The Watch is not receiving data from 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
