2.4 SIGNAL COVERAGE
The MSN Direct service is delivered over a wireless network that is based on FM
radio broadcast signals. Your Suunto n3 indicates the strength of the broadcast signal
by displaying a signal strength icon. The icon appears in the upper-right corner of the
status bar on most channel screens. The status bar will appear on most channel
screens a few seconds after the last button press. Even at low signal strength, your
Suunto n3 should receive information. Signal strength can vary based on your
location. Sometimes topography (hills, valleys), building structures, or nearby
electronics can interfere with the broadcast signal that your Suunto n3 uses to receive
information.
The network sends two types of information to your Suunto n3—broadcast and
personal. Broadcast information—such as news stories and current temperatures—is
sent to every Suunto n3 with MSN Direct, but only the information that you want to
see is actually captured by your Suunto n3. Regardless of where you travel in North
America, as long as you are within an MSN Direct coverage area, you should receive
broadcast information.
Your personal information—such as your messages and calendar appointments—is
encrypted with a unique key to help maintain your privacy. You receive personal
information when you are within the range of your home coverage area. Your home
coverage area is the metropolitan area where you live.
