Conducting an FTP Test

Before you can conduct a test to determine your functional

threshold power (FTP), you must pair a chest heart rate monitor

and a power meter with your device (Pairing Your Wireless

Sensors, page 35), and you must get your VO2 max. estimate

(Getting Your VO2 Max. Estimate for Cycling, page 17).

NOTE: The FTP test is a challenging workout that takes about

30 minutes to complete. Choose a practical and mostly flat route

that allows you to ride at a steadily increasing effort, similar to a

time trial.

From the watch face, select .

Select a cycling activity.

Hold MENU.

Select Training > FTP Guided Test.

Follow the on-screen instructions.

After you begin your ride, the device displays each step

duration, the target, and current power data. A message

appears when the test is complete.

After you complete the guided test, complete the cool down,

stop the timer, and save the activity.

Your FTP appears as a value measured in watts per

kilogram, your power output in watts, and a position on the

color gauge.

Select an option:

• Select Accept to save the new FTP.

• Select Decline to keep your current FTP.

Pulse Oximeter

The D2 Delta PX device has a wrist-based pulse oximeter to

gauge the saturation of oxygen in your blood (SpO2). Knowing

your oxygen saturation can help you determine how your body is

adjusting to high altitudes. As your altitude increases, the level

of oxygen in your blood can decrease. When you view the pulse

oximeter widget while you are not moving, your device analyzes

your oxygen saturation and your elevation. The elevation profile

helps indicate how your pulse oximeter readings are changing,

relative to your to elevation. During a flight, the device

automatically takes pulse oximeter readings more frequently, so

you can monitor your SpO2 percentage (Viewing Your SpO2

Readings in Flight, page 2).

On the device, your pulse oximeter reading appears as an

oxygen saturation percentage and color on the graph. On your

Garmin Connect account, you can view additional details about

your pulse oximeter readings, including trends over multiple

days.

The oxygen saturation percentage scale.

A graph of your average oxygen saturation readings for the last 24

hours.

Your most recent oxygen saturation reading.

The elevation scale.

A graph of your elevation readings for the last 24 hours.

Viewing the Pulse Oximeter Widget

The widget displays your most recent blood oxygen saturation

percentage, a graph of your hourly average readings for the last

24 hours, and a graph of your elevation for the last 24 hours.

NOTE: The first time you view the pulse oximeter widget, the

device must acquire satellite signals to determine your elevation.

You should go outside, and wait while the device locates

satellites.

While you are sitting or inactive, select UP or DOWN to view

the pulse oximeter widget.

Remain stationary for up to 30 seconds.

NOTE: If you are too active for the watch to determine your

oxygen saturation, a message appears instead of a

percentage. You can check your oxygen saturation again

after several minutes of inactivity.

Select to view a graph of your pulse oximeter readings

for the last seven days.

Turning On All-Day Acclimation Mode

From the pulse oximeter widget, select > DOWN > OK.

The device automatically analyzes your oxygen saturation

throughout the day, when you are not moving.

NOTE: Turning on all-day acclimation mode decreases

battery life.

Turning On Manual Acclimation Mode

From the pulse oximeter widget, hold MENU.

Select Options > Acclimation > Manual.

The device analyzes your oxygen saturation when you view

the pulse oximeter widget.

Tips for Erratic Pulse Oximeter Data

If the pulse oximeter data is erratic or does not appear, you can

try these tips.

• Remain motionless while the device reads your blood oxygen

saturation.

• Wear the device above your wrist bone. The device should

be snug but comfortable.

• Hold the arm wearing the device at heart level while the

device reads your blood oxygen saturation.

• Use a silicone band.

• Clean and dry your arm before putting on the device.

• Avoid wearing sunscreen, lotion, and insect repellent under

the device.

• Avoid scratching the optical sensor on the back of the device.

• Rinse the device with fresh water after each workout.

Knowing your heart rate zones can help you measure and

improve your fitness by understanding and applying these

principles.

• Your heart rate is a good measure of exercise intensity.
