your performance over different parts of an activity (for 

example, every 1 mile or 5 kilometers).

stop moving or when you drop below a specified speed. This 

feature is helpful if your activity includes stop lights or other

Alerts

You can set alerts for each activity, which can help you to train

activities. Some alerts require optional accessories, such as a 

heart rate monitor or cadence sensor. There are three types of 

alerts: event alerts, range alerts, and recurring alerts.

Event alert

: An event alert notifies you once. The event is a 

specific value. For example, you can set the device to alert 

you when you burn a specified number of calories.

Range alert

: A range alert notifies you each time the device is 

above or below a specified range of values. For example, you 

can set the device to alert you when your heart rate is below 

60 beats per minute (bpm) and over 210 bpm.

Recurring alert

: A recurring alert notifies you each time the 

device records a specified value or interval. For example, you 

can set the device to alert you every 30 minutes.
