Indoor Activities
The D2 device can be used for training indoors, such as running
on an indoor track or using a stationary bike. GPS is turned off
for indoor activities.
When running or walking with GPS turned off, speed, distance,
and cadence are calculated using the accelerometer in the
device. The accelerometer is self-calibrating. The accuracy of
the speed, distance, and cadence data improves after a few
outdoor runs or walks using GPS.
TIP: Holding the handrails of the treadmill reduces accuracy.
You can use an optional foot pod to record pace, distance, and
cadence.
When cycling with GPS turned off, speed and distance are not
available unless you have an optional sensor that sends speed
and distance data to the device (such as a speed or cadence
sensor).
Calibrating the Treadmill Distance
To record more accurate distances for your treadmill runs, you
can calibrate the treadmill distance after you run at least 1.5 km
(1 mi.) on a treadmill. If you use different treadmills, you can
manually calibrate the treadmill distance on each treadmill or
after each run.

device ( Creating a Custom Activity , page 4 ).
Viewing Your Ski Runs

snowboarding run using the auto run feature. This feature is
turned on by default for downhill skiing and snowboarding. It
automatically records new ski runs based on your movement.
