Wireless Sensors

Your device can be used with wireless ANT+ or Bluetooth

sensors. For more information about compatibility and

purchasing optional sensors, go to buy.garmin.com.

Pairing Your Wireless Sensors

The first time you connect a wireless sensor to your device

using ANT+ or Bluetooth technology, you must pair the device

and sensor. After they are paired, the device connects to the

sensor automatically when you start an activity and the sensor is

active and within range.

If you are pairing a heart rate monitor, put on the heart rate

monitor (Putting On the Heart Rate Monitor, page 14, Putting

On the Heart Rate Monitor, page 13).

The heart rate monitor does not send or receive data until

you put it on.

Bring the device within 3 m (10 ft.) of the sensor.

NOTE: Stay 10 m (33 ft.) away from other wireless sensors

while pairing.

Hold .

Select Settings > Sensors & Accessories > Add New.

Select an option:

• Select Search All Sensors.

• Select your sensor type.

After the sensor is paired with your device, the sensor status

changes from Searching to Connected. Sensor data appears

in the data screen loop or a custom data field.

Foot Pod

Your device is compatible with the foot pod. You can use the

foot pod to record pace and distance instead of using GPS when

you are training indoors or when your GPS signal is weak. The

foot pod is on standby and ready to send data (like the heart

rate monitor).

After 30 minutes of inactivity, the foot pod powers off to

conserve the battery. When the battery is low, a message

appears on your device. Approximately five hours of battery life

remain.

Going for a Run Using a Foot Pod

Before you go for a run, you must pair the foot pod with your

Forerunner device (Pairing Your Wireless Sensors, page 29).

You can run indoors using a foot pod to record pace, distance,

and cadence. You can also run outdoors using a foot pod to

record cadence data with your GPS pace and distance.
