Chronograph Mode
The Chronograph (Chrono) mode allows you to record the elapsed
time and other information for an event, up to 100 hours. Up to
100 laps may be stored, with the following data for each lap:
• Lap number, lap time, and split time
• Average speed, average pace, and distance for each lap (if the
Speed + Distance Sensor is in use)
• Average heart rate (if the Heart Rate Sensor is in use)
You can press MODE to switch the watch display to any other

A Note About Laps and Splits
Throughout this section we will talk about “laps” and “splits.”
When describing time, “lap time” is the time for one segment (lap)
of an event. “Split time” is the total time since the start of the
event. We use the term “taking a split” and “taking a lap” inter-
changeably; they both refer to the action that causes the Chrono
to stop timing the current segment and start timing a new one.
This can be done manually (with the START/SPLIT button) or auto-
matically (when using the Speed + Distance sensor).
Chrono Operation
1. Press START/SPLIT to begin timing.
If you are not using any Bodylink sensors, the watch displays lap
time, split time, and lap number. If you are using a Heart-Rate
Sensor, Speed + Distance Sensor, or both, the watch displays
information from those devices, such as heart rate, pace, and
distance.
2. Press START/SPLIT while the Chrono is running to take a split.
This will store the current lap and split data and start a new lap.
