Educating Your Stride Sensor

About the Stride Sensor

This device contains a stride sensor that uses a stride algorithm to learn your pace from your actual speed and your
body's vibration frequency. This allows the device to calculate distance and laps with high precision, as well as measure
your pitch and stride even in locations that cannot receive signals from GPS satellites such as in a tunnel, and so on.

Educating the Stride Sensor

When using the device for the first time, run under the following conditions so that the stride sensor can learn your
stride.
Location/Time
Run or walk in the following locations that allow GPS positioning.
❏ When outside with no obstructions overhead: Approximately 10 mins.
❏ When surrounded by tall buildings: approximately 30 mins.
Measure
Measure using the chronograph function.

Note:
❏ You do not need to make these preparations from the second time. However, note that information on your stride is
initialized if the device is initialized. If this occurs, you need to educate the stride sensor again.
❏ When you mainly use the device for walking, from the Measure set. menu, set Activity Type to Walk.

❏ The device's stride sensor is used for running and walking. This does not support bike mode. In bike mode, "-" is
displayed for the stride and pitch on the measurement display.
❏ Large measurement errors may occur if your stride differs significantly from this learning session.
