*Understanding Splits: Your workout results will be displayed and stored in
two ways: as a final result for the total distance or time, and as a set of points
along the way called splits. The splits show how your pace varied through
the workout. If you select a workout from Standard List, Custom List, or
Favorites, the duration of the split will be set for you. If you set up a New
Workout you have the opportunity to set the split duration. The PM divides your
New Workout into five segments, or splits, unless you alter the split duration
during set up. Interval workouts are not formatted to utilize splits.
To edit Custom List you must have a LogCard inserted. From Main Menu
select
More Options > LogCard > LogCard Utilities > Edit Custom List. This
enables you to copy workouts from Favorites on your LogCard to the Custom
List on the monitor.
