Introduction
Thanks to the 3-axis digital motion sensor, the PE-DRO pedometer measures in all situations. This digital
pedometer is a highly accurate step counter for your personal step monitoring when walking or running. It
offers additional features that are free for you to use, but are not mandatory.
The main idea behind a pedometer is to make you aware of how many steps you make a day and to
motivate you into additional healthy movement behaviour.
Common speech in Asia says: “He who walks 1000 steps a day will live to be 100 years old”.
It is not quite that easy but you should try to add an
additional 3000 steps
every day to your daily routine,
for example with a deliberate and vigorous evening walk. You will find that the daily repetition will greatly
increase your health and actually be fun.
The pedometer could be a device to monitor your training. Another option is to include your pulse. For this
Irox offers you a selection of watches with pulse monitoring (
www.irox.com
), e.g. the Irox Phan X2.
The main features of the PE-DRO are listed here and their functions will be explained in detail on the
following pages:
