Timex W-188 Heart Rate Monitor User Manual


 
Data Hiding: You can choose to show or hide blank data from
each of the fitness sensors. For instance, if you use only the HR
Sensor for your workout and you choose to hide blank GPS-3D
Sensor data, you will not see any information related to speed
since speed data relies on the use of the GPS-3D Sensor.
UNIT SETTINGS
Auto Units (when to use): In the Unit settings you can set
speed, pace, altitude, and North reference to auto. Each unit
setting set to auto will follow the unit setting for distance.
Auto Units (when not to use): Do not use auto when you want
different units for speed, pace, or altitude.
Configure the following unit settings:
Distance: Set the Watch to display distance in terms of miles,
kilometers, or nautical miles.
For example, a runner typically choses kilometers for her unit
settings. However, when running a marathon, she changes her
distance unit to miles (a marathon is always 26.2 miles), but she
chooses the kilometers unit setting for pace. During the
marathon, the runner can view her distance in miles to match
the course markers of the race, but she can view her pace in the
more familiar kilometers for a greater understanding of how
quickly she is running.

Sync Timer & Chrono: This feature allows you to set the
timer and the chronograph to start and stop simultaneously so
you can record chronograph data when you use the timer.
You must turn the Sync Timer & Chrono setting off if you want
the timer to switch to the Chronograph, Finish, or Vertical
Mode at the end of a countdown in Timer Mode.
WATCH SETTINGS
Configure the following Watch settings:
Night Mode: When enabled, the INDIGLO night-light turns
on when you press any button. This feature disables itself after
eight hours.
Hourly Chime: When enabled, the Watch will chime at the top
of every hour.
Button Beep: When enabled, the Watch will emit a beep when
you press any button.
Mode Hiding: You can choose to show, hide, or disable the
following modes: Vertical, Finish, Lap Data, Summary, Timer,
Navigate, Waypoints, or Alarm. For example, if you hide
Navigate Mode, you will not see any information from this
mode unless you are using the GPS-3D Sensor. If you disable
Navigate Mode it will not show up at all until you enable it
again from Configure Mode.
