1. INTRODUCTION TO SUUNTO PC POD
Suunto PC Pod is a Peripheral Observation Device designed to receive heart rate (HR)
data wirelessly from your heart rate transmitter belt straight to your PC. This allows you or
your coach to monitor your performance, in real time, on the PC screen. Additionally, the
Suunto PC POD further enhances the functionality of other ANT-equipped wireless
devices.
Suunto PC Pod's wireless connection, with a range of 10 meters/33 feet, allows you to
send your training data from the HR belt to your PC digitally, using ANT transmission tech-
nology, which eliminates interference from other devices in the vicinity. This means that
even when using the PC Pod at the gym or other public place, you can be sure that the
information you receive is accurate and personal. Thanks to the individually identifiable
Suunto ANT heart rate belts, the PC Pod can be used to receive up to three peoples' heart
rates simultaneously.
Suunto PC Pod makes a new type of training control possible. For a variety of applications,
viewing and analyzing your training data in real time, without having to wait until you're fin-
ished, becomes a convenient and practical possibility. At home or at the gym, on an exer-
cise bike or rowing machine, for example, you can visually keep track of the effectiveness
of your session by following your progress on your PC screen.
2. ATTACHING SUUNTO PC POD
Suunto PC Pod is quick and easy to attach. Simply take off the cover, plug it into your PC's
USB port and you're ready to go.
