Combo Heart Rate Strap
Bluetooth® Smart & 5 kHz Transmission

Your Combo Heart Rate Strap offers a comfortable
fit and wireless connectivity to receiving devices
like cardio equipment and smartphones.
The Bluetooth® Smart transmission technology
connects with smartphones and other Bluetooth
Smart Ready (Bluetooth 4.0) devices. Your heart
rate will be transmitted directly from the strap to
the phone when the Combo HR Strap is worn.
The Combo HR Strap also transmits heart rate
data using the standard 5 kHz signal that is
compatible with most cardio equipment. The
5 kHz heart rate signal is also transmitted when
the strap is worn.
