Improving Foot Pod Calibration

Before you can calibrate your device, you must acquire GPS 

signals and pair your device with the foot pod (

Pairing Your 

ANT+ Sensors

, page 9

).

The foot pod is self-calibrating, but you can improve the 

accuracy of the speed and distance data with a few outdoor runs 

using GPS.

1

Stand outside for 5 minutes with a clear view of the sky.

2

Start a running activity.

3

Run on a track without stopping for 10 minutes.

4

Stop your activity, and save it.
Based on the recorded data, the foot pod calibration value 

changes, if necessary. You should not need to calibrate the 

foot pod again unless your running style changes.

tempe

The tempe is an ANT+ wireless temperature sensor. You can 

attach the sensor to a secure strap or loop where it is exposed 

to ambient air, and therefore, provides a consistent source of 

accurate temperature data. You must pair the tempe with your 

device to display temperature data from the tempe.
