Indoor Activities
The fēnix 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.
