available as an accessory.
Your camera tries to connect to external sensors when recording starts and/or when you look at a

is dropped.
Note: Your camera stores a .GPX and a .KML file for each recorded video. These files make it
easy for you to access sensor data directly using a computer. See Using KML and GPX file data -
Camera.
The heart rate monitor
To use the external TomTom Heart Rate Monitor with your camera, do the following:
1. Attach the monitor to the strap.
2. Attach the strap around your chest, so the monitor sits just above the base of your chest bone.
Make sure the monitor is the right way up so that the word 'TomTom' is the right way up for
someone standing in front of you.
