of the computer changes slightly: the heart
rate replaces the date as shown in the

Polar T31 coded
transmitter
When worn properly, the Polar T31 coded
transmitter sends Galileo your heart rate
information. The transmission does not
require any pairing: when Galileo is turned
on it hooks onto the first Polar T31 signal
it receives. Check your heart rate, and if it
appears to be too high compared to normal,
please restart the T31 coded transmitter by
fitting it one more time. Polar T31 coded
transmitters use several unique codes to
minimize the possibility of crosstalk, but
two transmitters may have the same code,
which is understood as one signal by the
receiver. For best results, try to stay 2m/6ft
away from the nearest diver also using a
Polar T31 coded transmitter when turning
on Galileo just prior to the dive.
To don the T31 transmitter proceed as
follows:
- Attach one end of the transmitter to the
elastic strap.
- Adjust the transmitter's strap length to
fit snugly and comfortably. Secure the
strap around your chest, just below the
chest muscles, and buckle the strap to
the transmitter.
- When using a dry suit, lift the transmitter
off your chest and moisten the two
grooved areas on the back.
- Check that the electrode areas are firmly
against your skin and that the Polar logo
is in a central, upright position.
- Ensure that the transmitter is not
displaced when donning a wet suit or
a dry suit.
The Polar T31 Coded Transmitter features
a battery with a life of approximately
2500 hours. The transmitter is activated
by moisture, so leaving it on a wet towel
