Training with M5 Armband Strap
A.
Training Functions
While optical heart rate monitor technology typically provides the best estimate of a user's heart rate,
there are inherent limitations with the technology that may cause some of the heart rate readings to be
inaccurate under certain circumstances, including the user's physical characteristics, fit of the device, and
type and intensity of activity. If you want to track heart rate during higher intensity activities and/or those
that include a lot of high speed movement (of the arm), our recommendation is to wear the M3 chest strap
for better accuracy. The M3 chest strap can be connected to the M5 armband if you wish to have your live
heart rate visible during training without being connected the Morpheus app on your phone.
Note: for additional details on how to connect the M3 to the M5, please see #3 & #4 below.
1.
From the
Train
screen press the side button to access the screen shown below. The first thing you
need to do is decide if you are using the M5 directly for heart rate training or if you are connecting an
ANT+ chest strap to the M5 instead.
2.
The selected option will be highlighted in white. If using the M5 for heart rate, ensure the M5 is
highlighted and then press the side button to confirm.
3.
To connect an ANT+ chest strap to the M5 press
ANT+ DEVICE
on the screen. You will then see the
FIND DEVICE
screen as it searches for nearby compatible ANT+ devices. Please ensure that your
device is powered on and/or you are wearing it at this time.
4.
When the M5 finds a compatible device, it will return an ID# highlighted in white on the screen. Press
the side button to confirm.
The
Train
interface can be accessed by tapping the
touchscreen until you arrive there. This is where you will go
anytime you want to use the M5 for training, either by itself
or connected to an ANT+ chest strap.
