NOTE: Using GPS and another satellite
together can reduce battery life more
quickly than using GPS only (
GPS and
Other Satellite Systems,
page 31
).
GPS and Other Satellite Systems
The default satellite system setting is Normal
(GPS Only). The GPS + GLONASS or GPS +
GALILEO
options offer increased performance in
challenging environments and faster position
acquisition. Using GPS and another satellite
together can reduce battery life more quickly
than using GPS only.
UltraTrac
The UltraTrac feature is a GPS setting that
records track points and sensor data less
frequently. Enabling the UltraTrac feature
increases battery life but decreases the quality
of recorded activities. You should use the
UltraTrac feature for activities that demand
longer battery life and for which frequent sensor
data updates are less important.
Power Save Timeout Settings
The timeout settings affect how long your device
stays in training mode, for example, when you are
waiting
for a race to start. Hold UP, select Settings >
Activities & Apps, select an activity, and select the
activity settings. Select Power Save Timeout to adjust
the timeout settings for the activity.
Normal: Sets the device to enter low-power watch
mode after 5 minutes of inactivity.
Extended: Sets the device to enter low-power watch
mode after 25 minutes of inactivity. The
extended mode can result in shorter battery life
between charges.
