6 CALIBRATION & CORRECTION FACTOR
6.3 ACTIVATING CALIBRATION
Prerequisite: The device is in training mode.
You are wearing both the R3 transmitter and the running computer.
Press and hold the SET button until the setting mode
is open.
Press the SPEED (+) button repeatedly until the
function "Calibration" appears.
Press the SET button. The RC 1209 determines the
position of the R3 sensor (chest or hips) and starts
the calibration function. The RC 1209 guides you
through the calibration.
6.4 CALIBRATING
Calibration is carried out for two speeds:
Slow running or slow walking
k
Run here as slow as you would run in the slowest training.
Fast running or fast walking
k
Run here at the fastest pace that you would run in an endurance run
or a long tempo run (over 3000 m). It is recommended that the two
speeds differ by 30 %.
Tip: If you use the device only for running and with heart rate
measurement (chest position) and therefore never wear on the hip, you
need calibrate only for the sensor position "Chest" and for "Running".
