GPS and Other Satellite Systems

Using GPS and another satellite system together offers 

increased performance in challenging environments and faster 

position acquisition than using GPS only. However, using 

multiple systems can reduce battery life more quickly than using 

GPS only.
Your device can use these Global Navigation Satellite Systems 

(GNSS).

GPS

: A satellite constellation built by the United States.

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 

MENU

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.
