In time view, the current time is displayed. If using the Me app, time will
be automatically set.
Steps
Runtastic Orbit tracks your steps whenever sleep mode is not acti-
vated. In step view, the steps taken on the current day are displayed.
The step count is automatically reset to zero at midnight, while the
collected data is saved on Orbit as long as there is enough memory
available, or until it is synced with your Runtastic Me app
(see „Storage and Data Sync“).
Calories Burned
Calories are burned all the time, even while sleeping and sitting! Your
overall Calories Burned includes your basal metabolic rate (BMR) and
the calories burned during daily activities.
The calculation starts at midnight and is based on individual values,
including: height, weight, gender and age that Runtastic Orbit retrieves
from your Runtastic Me app. Steps are analyzed on a minute-based
timeframe, with a higher step frequency leading to a higher amount of
calories burned. This is why 100 steps/minute are calculated differently
than 10 unique occurences of 10 steps/minute. Activities completed
with other Runtastic apps are also taken into account and data is
integrated in a way that always defers to the most accurate source.
Active Minutes
Runtastic Orbit shows the total number of active minutes from the
current day, starting at midnight.
Sleep Mode
Runtastic Orbit does not automatically detect when you are asleep.
When you go to sleep, wear your Runtastic Orbit and push the Navi-
gation button for 3 seconds until your Orbit vibrates and the sleep icon
is displayed. Runtastic Orbit is now in sleep mode and will measure
your sleep duration and cycles. Your sleep data will be shown in the
Runtastic Me app.
