4Bring the device within 3 m (10 ft.) of the heart rate monitor.
After you put on the heart rate monitor, it is active and sending
data.
TIP: If the heart rate data is erratic or does not appear, see the
troubleshooting tips (Tips for Erratic Heart Rate Data,
page 6).
Setting Your Heart Rate Zones
The device uses your user profile information from the initial
setup to determine your heart rate zones. You can manually
adjust the heart rate zones according to your fitness goals
(Fitness Goals, page 7). For the most accurate calorie data
during your activity, set your maximum heart rate, resting heart
rate, and heart rate zones.
1From the home screen, select > Training Zones > Heart
Rate Zones.
2Enter your maximum and resting heart rate values.
The zone values update automatically, but you can also edit
each value manually.
3Select Based On:.
4Select an option:
• Select BPM to view and edit the zones in beats per
minute.
• Select % Max. to view and edit the zones as a percentage
of your maximum heart rate.
• Select % HRR to view and edit the zones as a percentage
of your resting heart rate.
About Heart Rate Zones
Many athletes use heart rate zones to measure and increase
their cardiovascular strength and improve their level of fitness. A
heart rate zone is a set range of heartbeats per minute. The five
commonly accepted heart rate zones are numbered from 1 to 5
according to increasing intensity. Generally, heart rate zones are
calculated based on percentages of your maximum heart rate.
Tips for Erratic Heart Rate Data
If the heart rate data is erratic or does not appear, you can try
these tips.
• Reapply water to the electrodes and contact patches (if
applicable).
• Tighten the strap on your chest.
• Warm up for 5 to 10 minutes.
6 ANT+ Sensors

• Follow the care instructions (Caring for the Heart Rate
Monitor, page 16).
• Wear a cotton shirt or thoroughly wet both sides of the strap.
Synthetic fabrics that rub or flap against the heart rate
monitor can create static electricity that interferes with heart
rate signals.
• Move away from sources that can interfere with your heart
rate monitor.
Sources of interference may include strong electromagnetic
fields, some 2.4 GHz wireless sensors, high-voltage power
lines, electric motors, ovens, microwave ovens, 2.4 GHz
cordless phones, and wireless LAN access points.
Fitness Goals
Knowing your heart rate zones can help you measure and
improve your fitness by understanding and applying these
principles.
• Your heart rate is a good measure of exercise intensity.
• Training in certain heart rate zones can help you improve
cardiovascular capacity and strength.
• Knowing your heart rate zones can prevent you from
overtraining and can decrease your risk of injury.
If you know your maximum heart rate, you can use the table
(Heart Rate Zone Calculations, page 19) to determine the best
heart rate zone for your fitness objectives.
If you do not know your maximum heart rate, use one of the
calculators available on the Internet. Some gyms and health
centers can provide a test that measures maximum heart rate.
The default maximum heart rate is 220 minus your age.

stretches across the crank arm.
2On the non-drive side, place and hold the flat side of the
cadence sensor on the inside of the crank arm.
3Pull the bands Á around the crank arm, and attach them to
the hooks  on the sensor.
4Rotate the crank arm to check for clearance.
The sensor and bands should not contact any part of your
bike or shoe.
NOTE: The LED flashes green for five seconds to indicate
activity after two revolutions.
5Take a 15 minute test ride and inspect the sensor and bands
to ensure there is no evidence of damage.
About the Speed and Cadence Sensors
Cadence data from the cadence sensor is always recorded. If no
speed and cadence sensors are paired with the device, GPS
data is used to calculate the speed and distance.
Cadence is your rate of pedaling or “spinning” measured by the
number of revolutions of the crank arm per minute (rpm).
Data Averaging for Cadence or Power
The non-zero data-averaging setting is available if you are
training with an optional cadence sensor or power meter. The
default setting excludes zero values that occur when you are not
pedaling.
You can change the value of this setting (Data Recording
Settings, page 15).
Pairing Your ANT+ Sensors
Before you can pair, you must put on the heart rate monitor or
install the sensor.
Pairing is the connecting of ANT+ wireless sensors, for example,
connecting a heart rate monitor with your Garmin device.
1Bring the device within 3 m (10 ft.) of the sensor.
NOTE: Stay 10 m (33 ft.) away from other riders' ANT+
sensors while pairing.

Vector measures the force you apply a few hundred times every
second. Vector also measures your cadence or rotational
pedaling speed. By measuring the force, the direction of force,
the rotation of the crank arm, and time, Vector can determine
power (watts). Because Vector independently measures left and
right leg power, it reports your left-right power balance.
NOTE: The Vector S system does not provide left-right power
balance.
Cycling Dynamics
Cycling dynamics metrics measure how you apply power
throughout the pedal stroke, and where you apply power on the
pedal, allowing you to understand your particular way of riding.
Understanding how and where you produce power allows you to
train more efficiently and evaluate your bike fit.
Using Cycling Dynamics
Before you can use cycling dynamics, you must pair the Vector
power meter with your device (Pairing Your ANT+ Sensors,
page 7).
NOTE: Recording cycling dynamics uses additional device
memory.
