Watch terminology
Your Bodylink®System has its own language that you will learn
as you become proficient in operating it. As you learn this
language, you will encounter some important words and phrases.
We promise; no one will make you take a vocabulary test!
But, reviewing key terminology will help you more quickly
understand how your Bodylink System operates. So, take a
minute to review some of the words that will appear throughout
this manual.
➤ Bodylink System: The Bodylink System allows you to track
and store real time data using a family of wireless devices in
conjunction with your Performance Watch.
➤ Performance Watch: The Performance Watch, (Watch) houses
the data center for the Bodylink System.
➤ Fitness Sensors: The Bodylink System includes two digital
sensors: the Heart Rate Sensor and the Speed + Distance
Sensor.
➤ Heart Rate Sensor: The Heart Rate Sensor (HR Sensor)
measures your heart rate. The Fitness Sensor User Guide
provides detailed information for setting up and using your
HR Sensor.
➤ Speed + Distance Sensor: The Speed + Distance Sensor
(GPS-3D Sensor) tracks speed, pace, distance traveled, altitude,
and more, using GPS based technology. The Fitness Sensor User
Guide provides detailed instructions for setting up and using
your GPS-3D Sensor. Note that sometimes the Watch will refer
to the GPS-3D Sensor as the S+D Sensor.
➤ GPS: The GPS-3D Sensor uses information gathered from
global positioning satellites (GPS) to calculate your speed,
distance, and elevation.
The chronograph
As you learn about your Watch, the word chronograph may cause
confusion. Remember this: a chronograph is a tool for measuring
time. You will notice a Chronograph Mode, but Vertical and Finish
Modes operate from the chronograph. Any time your Watch
functions as a timing tool, it operates using chronograph (or
timing) functionality.

Starting the Bodylink®System
When using the Performance Monitor, you can view real-time data
from a Heart Rate Sensor or Speed + Distance Sensor, or both, in
Time of Day, Chrono and Timer. The procedure to do this is the
same in all modes, though the data that you can view and their
position on the display in each mode will vary.
1. Make sure you’re wearing your Heart Rate Sensor or Speed +
Distance Sensor, or both, and that they are powered up and
functional.
2. Stand at least 6 feet (2 meters) away from any other users of
fitness monitor systems and from any source of radio interference
such as electrical equipment, power lines, etc.
NOTE: Though the Bodylink®system has a working range of
about 3 feet (1 meter) from the sensors to the watch, for the most
reliable operation, make sure that the watch is as close to the
sensors as possible when starting the system up.
3. Press and release the DISPLAY button. This tells the watch to
look for any Bodylink
minute. The antenna icon will appear on the watch display,
indicating that the Bodylink
®
sensors nearby; it will search for one
®
system is active.
NOTE: As a convenience, Chrono and Timer will automatically
search for Bodylink®sensors for fifteen seconds upon entering
the mode.
4. When the watch has successfully detected transmissions from the
sensors, the watch display will switch to a new format showing
some or all of the sensor data, depending on the mode. Time of
Day and Timer show the data in the lower line exclusively, while
Chrono allows up to three lines of performance data.
Viewing Performance Data
Press and release the DISPLAY button to select the data or
combination of data that you wish to view during your workout. For
your convenience, a “banner” showing the names of the information
and their position on the display is shown briefly before showing the
data itself.
Here are a few more things you should know to use the watch
effectively:
• While in the Chrono, press and release SET/FORMAT to swap
the positions of the information in the upper and middle display
lines. This allows you to view the data most important in the
larger middle display line.

Messages
When using the Watch with the Fitness Sensors, the Watch may
display messages to communicate the status of either of the
Sensors in conjunction with the Watch. Messages include:
NO DATA FROM HRM (GPS) The Watch is not receiving data
from either the HR or GPS-3D Sensor. Ensure the Sensor is not
more than 3 feet (1 meter) away from the Watch, is operating, or
has not inadvertently locked on to someone else’s Sensor. The
Watch will attempt to establish a connection for one minute after
this message displays.
NOISY DATA FROM HRM (GPS) The Watch is experiencing
radio interference. Try to move away from any potential sources of
interference (for example, televisions, monitors, or motorized
devices). The Watch will attempt to establish a connection for
30 seconds after this message displays.
SEARCHING The GPS-3D Sensor is still trying to link to GPS
data. You cannot view speed, pace, distance, or positional
information until the Sensor locates GPS satellites.
WEAK GPS SIGNAL The GPS-3D Sensor lost its link with GPS
satellites. The GPS-3D Sensor operates more accurately in more
open areas (such as an area without a lot of tree or cloud cover)
and at quicker speeds.
FATAL GPS ERROR The GPS-3D Sensor has encountered a
severe internal error. Contact Timex Customer Service.

Preparing to use your Watch
Determining your heart rate
In addition to many other useful features, your Watch uses
technology that helps you track detailed information about your
heart rate. But, before you can track this information, you first
need to determine your maximum heart rate. You can use many
methods to estimate your maximum heart rate.
The booklet Heart Zones® Tools For Success included in your Watch
packaging provides excellent procedures and Timex® recommends
you use one of these methodologies. However, if you cannot use any
of the procedures described in Heart Zones Tools for Success, you
might consider using the widely used, though highly debated, agebased method. Begin with the number 220 and then subtract your
age. For instance, a 35 year old would begin with 220 and subtract
35 (the person’s age) which gives an estimated maximum heart rate
of 185.
Setting your Watch for first use
Once you determine your heart rate, set the following parameters
prior to using your Watch:
1. Set the time of day. For detailed information on Time of Day Mode,
including instructions for setting time of day, refer to page 20.
2. Enter your maximum heart rate. In Configure Mode, select
HRM SETTINGS and then MAX HR. Your maximum heart rate
setting determines your five preset heart rate target zones. For more
information refer to “Max heart rate” on page 58.
3. Select your desired heart rate display units. In Configure Mode,
select HRM SETTINGS and then HRM DISPLAY. Your Watch gives
you the option to view your heart rate in beats per minute (BPM) or
as a percentage of your maximum heart rate (PERCENT). For more
information refer to “Heart rate display” on page 58.
1716
4. Determine your target heart rate zone and alert. In Configure
Mode, select HRM
zone alert to keep your heart rate within a defined range to maximize
your performance and prevent either over exertion or under
utilization of your heart during exercise.For more information refer
to “TZ zone and alert” on page 57.
5. Choose the unit display for your Watch. In Configure Mode set
length, speed, pace and altitude units to your liking. Refer to “Unit
settings” on page 62 for further information.
6. Set the ascent rate update. This setting in the ALTITUDE
SETTINGS group calculates how quickly you change altitude during
you workout (also known as vertical speed). Set this feature shorter
for faster vertical activities such as skiing or longer for slower vertical
activities such as climbing. Refer to “Update ascent rate” on page 60
for detailed information.
SETTINGS and then TZ ALERT. Use the target
Though not necessary to adjust before your first workout, you may
want to review and configure the speed or pace target zones
(page 59), distance alert (page 59) or additional hands-free features
(page 60).

Time of Day Mode terminology
UTC: When you use the Watch in conjunction with the GPS-3D
Sensor, it will align with UTC (Universal Time, Coordinated
formerly known as GMT). This describes the local time zone in
relationship to the Greenwich Meridian. For example, New York
City is in the -5 UTC zone, since New York is five hours earlier than
Greenwich Meridian; Moscow is +3 UTC, since it is three hours
later than Greenwich Meridian.

Switching time zones
The Watch can track two time zones (T1 and T2). Look at the
second zone by pressing START/SPLIT or, switch from T1 to T2
using these steps:
1. Press and hold START/SPLIT until HOLD FOR TIME 2 appears.
2. Continue to hold until the time switches and the Watch beeps.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 to switch back to T1. The message will read
HOLD FOR TIME 1.
Note that you must independently set the time of day for each
time zone.
Synchronizing the Watch with the GPS-3D Sensor
When you first activate the GPS-3D Sensor with your Watch, you
can expect one of the following scenarios:
➤ If you activate the GPS-3D Sensor before setting time of day, the
Watch will synchronize both T1 and T2 with UTC. You will need
to adjust the hour for both time zones to your local time.
➤ If you activate the GPS-3D Sensor after setting the time of day,
the Watch maintains the hour and date settings and
synchronizes minutes and seconds to UTC for each time zone.
➤ Note that you cannot adjust the seconds when you enable the
GPS features; they will always remain synchronized to UTC
time.
Viewing performance data in Time of Day Mode
When using the Fitness Sensors with your Watch, you can scroll
through performance data by pressing and releasing DISPLAY.
You may elect to continue viewing the day of the week instead by
pressing DISPLAY until the day of the week becomes visible.

Time of Day Mode tips & tricks
➤ You can return to Time of Day Mode from any other mode on the
Watch by pressing and holding MODE until the time of
day displays.
➤ The Watch does not automatically adjust for Daylight Savings
Time. When switching between Standard Time and Daylight
Savings Time, you must manually adjust the hour value.
➤ If the Watch does not detect either of the Fitness Sensors, the day
of the week will appear on the bottom line of the display.
➤ You can only reset the seconds value to zero if you use the Watch
in conjunction with the HR Sensor.
➤ You may adjust the minutes value ahead or behind the correct
time and the watch will remember your setting. This feature
helps people who like to set their watches a little ahead to keep
them on time.
Time of Day Mode example
Assume that you live in San Francisco and work with a client in
Singapore. Like all busy people, it is imperative you keep track of
time, so you set T1 to your local time. But it is also important to
have a quick reminder of your client’s time, so you set T2 to
Singapore time. With both time zones available, you can quickly
check your client’s time or even switch your monitor to display T2
when you travel to Singapore.

Finish Mode example
You are training for a 100 KM bicycle race. Last year you rode in
the same race and finished in 4 hours, 15 minutes. This year your
goal is to finish in less than 4 hours. You read in a training
magazine that, when training for a race, you should devote one
day a week to riding at a distance equal to your event, working
toward your goal time. To help keep you on pace, you set Finish
Mode to 100 KM for a distance and 4 hours for a time. You set the
Watch to alert you audibly when you go slower than your required
pace to help keep you on track as you ride.

Interval: Intervals relate your exercise to specific periods of time.
For instance, you can run for ten minutes, walk for two, run for
twenty minutes, and then walk for five – this would represent four
training intervals.
Reps: The number of times you choose to perform an interval
group. In the example above, if you choose to run the interval group
three times, you will go through your series of ten, two, twenty, and
five minute timings three times in sequence. This would represent 3
reps.
Warm-up: The period at the beginning of your workout that helps
prepare your body for a more intensive training session.
Cool Down: The period at the end of your work out that helps
your body to recover to a state of normal functioning.
Selecting an interval workout
You can use the Watch to set and store up to five workouts labeled
WKOUT 1 though WKOUT 5.
1. Press MODE until Interval Mode appears.

Summary Mode.
Viewing performance data in Interval Timer Mode
When using the Fitness Sensors with your Watch, you can scroll
through performance data for each lap of your workout by pressing
and releasing DISPLAY. For Interval Timer Mode, viewing options
include:
➤ Heart Rate: Current heart rate expressed as either percent of
your maximum heart rate (PERCENT) or beats per minute
(BPM)
➤ Speed: Current velocity
➤ Pace: Current velocity, expressed in minutes per selected
distance unit, such as miles or kilometers
➤ Distance: Distance traveled since you began operating the
interval timer
➤ Altitude: Current height above sea level
Interval Mode tips & tricks
You can set the Watch to take a split when an interval ends by using
SYNC TIMER & CHRONO (see page 61). This will override the
auto split function and allow you to have a record of your
performance for each interval.
Interval Mode example
For cross training purposes, you decide to add a one-hour spin
class to your workout routine one time per week. You decide to
use Interval Mode to help you track both time and heart rate for
your class. You set up WKOUT 1 as follows: WARM-UP for 5
minutes with NO TZ (indicating no heart rate goal), INTVL 1 for
5 minutes at Z4: 156 – 175 (in beats per minute), INTVL 2 for 1
minute in Z3: 136 – 156, INTVL 3 for 10 minutes in Z4 and
INTVL 4 for 2 minutes in Z3. You then set the # OF REPS to 3,
indicating you want to repeat INTVL 1 through INTVL 4 three
times. Finally, you set the COOL DOWN to 5 minutes with NO
TZ. This entire workout takes you approximately 60 minutes and
helps you track both time and endurance goals.

Viewing performance data in Summary Mode
If you do not use your Fitness Sensors, the only information you
can view in Summary Mode is the total time for your activity while
the chronograph was running. Total time is equivalent to split time
in Chronograph Mode.
When using the Fitness Sensors with your Watch, you can view
performance data for the following five data groups:
Heart Rate
➤ Average Heart Rate: Your average heart rate calculated over
the period the chronograph was running.
➤ Peak Heart Rate: The highest recorded heart rate during your
activity.
➤ Minimum Heart Rate: The lowest recorded heart rate during
your activity.
➤ Time in Zones: Taking into account your total workout time,
the Watch displays how much time you spent in each of the
heart rate zones during your activity, including all five preset
zones, all three custom zones, and below Zone 1 (sometimes
referred to as “Zone 0”) (refer to “HRM settings” on page 57 for
information on setting up this feature).
➤ Average Heart Rate in Zones: The average heart rate in each
of the heart rate zones, including all five preset zones, all three
custom zones, and below Zone 1.
➤ Recovery: Your heart rate change over a selected period
of time recorded at the end of your activity (refer to “Recovery”
on page 58 for information on setting up this feature).
Speed
➤ Average Speed: Your average speed calculated by dividing
distance by time.
➤ Maximum Speed: Your quickest speed.
➤ Average Pace: Your average speed expressed as minutes per
distance unit traveled.
➤ Best Pace: Your fastest time traveled per minute.
While Average Speed and Average Pace are the same value
expressed two different ways, Best Pace and Maximum Speed are
not. Best Pace is determined by analyzing all the pace values of
your activity; Maximum Speed is the fastest speed calculated by
the GPS-3D Sensor during your activity. While closely related,
these two values are not equivalent and may not agree.
Distance
➤ Event Distance: Your accumulated distance traveled during the
activity while the chronograph was running.
➤ Odometer: Your accumulated distance traveled since you last
manually reset the odometer. Since the odometer does not
operate in conjunction with the chronograph, you can use this
feature to track accumulated distance over several workouts.
4746
Time
➤ Event Time: The total time for your activity while the
chronograph was running. Event time is equivalent to split time
in the chronograph modes.
GPS
➤ GPS Battery Level: The current voltage level for the GPS-3D
Sensor displayed in bar graph format. You must be receiving
data from the GPS-3D Sensor to view this information. When
the graph displays only one segment and you see the battery
icon on the Watch display, you should change the battery.
Summary Mode tips & tricks
➤ Once you restart the chronograph from zero for your next
activity, you erase summary data from your previous activity.
➤ If you are wearing the HR Sensor, you can initiate a recovery
calculation while in Summary Mode by pressing and holding
START/SPLIT while viewing your recovery data.
➤ If you want to view information for each segment of your activity
refer to Lap Data Mode in the previous section.
Summary Mode example
Recently, you have decided to focus on your heart rate during your
workouts. In Configure Mode, set your maximum heart rate at
195 BPM. When you finish any of your workouts (whether
running, biking, swimming, or any other type of activity), you can
refer to Summary Mode to review your heart rate information.
This information includes your average, peak, and minimum
heart rates as well as average heart rate and time spent in each of
the heart rate zones. Using this feature will help indicate the
levels at which you worked your heart throughout your workout
and serve as an indicator of whether or not you need to adjust the
intensity of your workout.

Timer & Chrono (see “Hands-free settings” on page 60).
Basic Timer Mode example
As part of your overall health plan, you decide to take a 30-minute
walk during your lunch hour two times a week. To help keep
track of time so you do not return late from your lunch hour, you
set the timer to 15 minutes and then set it to repeat one time.
After 15 minutes the Watch beeps telling you to begin walking
back to your office. Since you set the timer to repeat, the Watch
begins timing another 15 minute session helping you track how
much time you have to return to your office.
Alarm Mode
You can use your Watch as an alarm clock for up to five separate
alarms. When you set an alarm, the alarm clock icon appears
in Time of Day Mode. You can set an alarm to ring at the

HRM settings
Prior to configuring your heart rate settings, refer to Heart Zones®
Tools for Success for information on the importance of tracking
your heart rate and how to determine your maximum heart rate.
Then, configure the following heart rate settings:
➤ TZ zone and alert: You may select from one of five preset heart
rate zones (labeled Z1 to Z5) or three custom heart rate zones
(labeled C1 to C3). You may also choose whether or not to have
the Watch alert you if your heart rate goes outside of your target
zone. Options for alerts include NO ALRT, AUDIBLE, or SILENT.
NO ALRT turns off the alert completely, SILENT warns you with
a visual indication (an up or down arrow on the Watch display) if
you go above or below your target heart rate zone, and AUDIBLE
combines a warning melody with the visual alert. You will hear an
ascending melody if you go above your zone and a descending
melody if you go below your zone.
➤ Custom zones: You may set the upper and lower target zone
number or percentage (depending on how you choose to show
your heart rate) for up to three custom heart rate zones, labeled
CUSTOM 1, CUSTOM 2, and CUSTOM 3.
5756
➤ Recovery: This feature helps you determine how quickly your
heart rate returns to a lower heart rate value at the end of your
activity; the quicker you return, the better your fitness level. You
can set the Watch to calculate a recovery heart rate when you
stop the chronograph for one minute, two minutes, or off.
Selecting OFF will prevent the Watch from automatically
calculating a recovery heart rate when you stop the chronograph.
You may still manually calculate your recovery rate in Summary
Mode, set to one minute, if you select OFF in Configure Mode.
➤ Max heart rate: Enter your Maximum Heart Rate. The Watch
uses this value to calculate the five preset heart rate zones and
serves as a reference for displaying your heart rate as a percent of
your maximum heart rate (PERCENT).
➤ Heart rate display: You can set the Watch to display your
heart rate as either a percentage of your maximum heart rate
(PERCENT) or in beats per minute (BPM). The setting you
choose will determine how your heart rate displays in all other
Watch settings.
S+D settings
➤ Zone type: Similar in concept to a heart rate target zone alert,
you can set the Watch to track your speed or your pace and to
alert you if you move too slowly or too quickly (alert types include
an audible alert that beeps or a silent alert that flashes). You can
set speed and pace limits independently. For instance, set pace
limits to control pace for your run and set speed limits to values
useful for cycling. Then simply switch between the settings for
each activity.
➤ Distance alert: Set the Watch to alert you for distance intervals.
For example, you can set the Watch to alert you for every mile
you travel. The distance alert will only function when you run the
chronograph. If you would like the Watch to take a split based on
distance traveled, refer to the Hands-Free Settings on page 60.
Smoothing: Smoothing is useful if you feel that the displayed
speed or pace values appear to be too erratic. Smoothing applies an
averaging filter and may cause the displayed speed or pace values to
respond more slowly to changes.
➤ Speed smoothing: Turn speed smoothing off or on.
➤ Pace smoothing: Turn pace smoothing off or on.
5958
Altitude settings
➤ Smoothing: Smoothing is useful if you feel that the displayed
altitude value appears to be too erratic. Smoothing applies an
averaging filter and may cause the displayed altitude value to
respond more slowly to changes. You can turn altitude smoothing
off or on.
➤ Update ascent rate: Set the Watch to update the period at
which the ascent rate is calculated. You can choose intervals of 30
seconds, or 1, 10, 30, or 60 minutes. Set this feature shorter for
faster vertical activities such as skiing or longer for slower
vertical activities such as climbing.
Hands-Free settings
Hands-free features automate chronograph features, freeing you to
focus on your workout instead of operating your Watch. Even when
enabled, you can still take manual splits without affecting the
hands-free operation. Configure the following hands-free settings:
➤ Auto split: This feature enables the chronograph to
automatically take splits based on elapsed distance or time. For
instance, you can configure the Watch to take a split every 10
minutes, or, if you set Auto Split to 1 MI, then the Watch will
automatically take a split every mile.
➤ Auto start: This feature enables the chronograph to start when
you start moving. It may take a few seconds for the GPS-3D
Sensor to detect movement, causing a slight delay in start time.
➤ Auto stop: This feature enables the chronograph to stop when
you stop moving. It may take a few seconds for the GPS-3D
Sensor to detect that you have stopped moving, causing a slight
delay in stop time.
➤ Sync timer & chrono: This feature allows you to set the
interval timer and the chronograph to start and stop
simultaneously so you can record chronograph data when you use
the interval timer. The completion of an interval in Interval
Timer Mode will cause the Watch to take a split in the
chronograph. Use this feature if you want a record of your
performance for each interval in your workout. Each interval
corresponds to one lap or segment in Lap Data Mode.
You must turn the sync timer & chrono setting off if you want the
timer to switch to Chronograph Mode at the end of a countdown
in Basic Timer Mode.
Watch settings
Configure the following Watch settings:
➤ Night-Mode® feature: When enabled, the INDIGLO® night-
light turns on when you press any button. This feature disables
itself after eight hours.
➤ Hourly chime: When enabled, the Watch will chime at the top of
every hour.
➤ Button beep: When enabled, the Watch will emit a beep when
you press any button.
6160
➤ Mode hiding: You can choose to show or disable the following
modes: Interval, Lap Data, Summary, Timer, or Alarm. For
example, if you disable Lap Data Mode it will not show up at all
until you enable it again from Configure Mode. You can also
choose to show, hide, or disable Vertical Mode or Finish Mode.
➤ Data hiding: You can choose to show or hide blank data from
the Fitness Sensors. For instance, if you do not use the HR
Sensor for your workout and you choose to hide blank HR Sensor
data, you will not see any information related to heart rate since
this data relies on the use of the HR Sensor.
Unit settings
Configure the following unit settings:
➤ Distance: Set the Watch to display distance in terms of miles,
kilometers (KM), or nautical miles (NM).
➤ Speed: Set the Watch to display speed in terms of miles per hour
(MPH), kilometers per hour (KPH), nautical miles (NM), or auto.
➤ Pace: Set the Watch to display pace in terms of miles (MPH),
kilometers (KPH), nautical miles (NM), or auto.
➤ Altitude: Set the Watch to display altitude in terms of feet,
meters, or auto.
In unit settings you can set speed, pace, and altitude to any unit
independently or to the default auto setting. When set to auto, each
setting automatically follows the distance unit setting. This allows
you to quickly change units for all your data displays without
having to adjust every setting every time, yet allows flexibility for
certain situations.
For example, a runner typically chooses kilometers for her unit
settings. However, when running a marathon, she changes her
distance unit to miles (a marathon is always 26.2 miles), but she
chooses the kilometers unit setting for pace. During the
marathon, the runner can view her distance in miles to match
the course markers of the race, but she can view her pace in the
more familiar minutes per kilometers for a greater
understanding of how quickly she is running.
