Select GPS.

Select an option:

• Select Off to disable GPS for the activity.

• Select GPS + GLONASS (Russian satellite system) for

more accurate position information in situations with poor

sky visibility.

system) for more accurate position information in

situations with poor sky visibility.

• Select UltraTrac to record track points and sensor data

less frequently (UltraTrac, page 31).

NOTE: Using GPS and another satellite together can reduce

battery life more quickly than using GPS only (GPS and

Other Satellite Systems, page 31).

GPS and Other Satellite Systems

The GPS + GLONASS or GPS + GALILEO options offer

increased performance in challenging environments and faster

position acquisition than using GPS only. However, using GPS

and another satellite system together can reduce battery life

more quickly than using GPS only.

UltraTrac

The UltraTrac feature is a GPS setting that records track points

and sensor data less frequently. Enabling the UltraTrac feature

increases battery life but decreases the quality of recorded

activities. You should use the UltraTrac feature for activities that

demand longer battery life and for which frequent sensor data

updates are less important.

Power Save Timeout Settings

The timeout settings affect how long your device stays in

training mode, for example, when you are waiting for a race to

start. Hold MENU, select Activities & Apps, select an activity,

and select the activity settings. Select Power Save Timeout to

adjust the timeout settings for the activity.

Normal: Sets the device to enter low-power watch mode after 5

minutes of inactivity.

Extended: Sets the device to enter low-power watch mode after

25 minutes of inactivity. The extended mode can result in

shorter battery life between charges.
