Pairing Your Wireless Sensors

Before you can pair, you must put on the heart rate monitor or install the sensor.
The first time you connect a wireless sensor to your device using ANT+ or Bluetooth technology, you must pair
the device and sensor. If the sensor has both ANT+ and Bluetooth technology, Garmin recommends that you
pair using ANT+ technology. After they are paired, the Edge bike computer connects to the sensor automatically
when you start an activity and the sensor is active and within range.
NOTE: If your device was packaged with a sensor, they are already paired.
1 Bring the device within 3 m (10 ft.) of the sensor.
NOTE: Stay 10 m (33 ft.) away from other riders' sensors while pairing.
2 Select
> Sensors > Add Sensor.
3 Select an option:
• Select a sensor type.
• Select Search All to search for all nearby sensors.
A list of available sensors appears.
4 Select one or more sensors to pair with your device.
5 Select Add.
When the sensor is paired with your device, the sensor status is Connected. You can customize a data field
to display sensor data.

Wireless Sensor Battery Life

After you go for a ride, battery life levels for the wireless sensors that were connected during the activity appear.
The list is sorted by battery level.
