HRM-Pro Running Pace and Distance The HRM-Pro series accessory calculates your running pace and distance based on your user profile and the motion measured by the sensor on every stride. The heart rate monitor provides running pace and distance when GPS is not available, such as during treadmill running. You can view your running pace and distance on your compatible Venu Sq 2 watch when connected using ANT+ technology. You can also view it on compatible third-party training apps when connected using Bluetooth technology. The pace and distance accuracy improves with calibration. Automatic calibration: The default setting for your watch is Auto Calibrate. The HRM-Pro series accessory calibrates each time you run outside with it connected to your compatible Venu Sq 2 watch. NOTE: Automatic calibration does not work for indoor, trail, or ultra run activity profiles (Tips for Recording Running Pace and Distance, page 41). Manual calibration: You can select Calibrate & Save after a treadmill run with your connected HRM-Pro series accessory (Calibrating the Treadmill Distance, page 5). Tips for Recording Running Pace and Distance • Update your Venu Sq 2 watch software (Product Updates, page 55). • Complete several outdoor runs with GPS and your connected HRM-Pro series accessory. It's important that your outdoor range of paces matches your range of paces on the treadmill. • If your run includes sand or deep snow, go to the sensor settings, and turn off Auto Calibrate. • If you previously connected a compatible foot pod using ANT+ technology, set the foot pod status to Off, or remove it from the list of connected sensors. • Complete a treadmill run with manual calibration (Calibrating the Treadmill Distance, page 5). • If automatic and manual calibrations don't seem accurate, go to the sensor settings, and select HRM Pace & Distance > Reset Calibration Data.
