ANT+ Sensors ANT+ Sensor Troubleshooting Problem The ANT+ sensor will not pair with my device. Solution • Stay 10 m away from other ANT+ sensors while pairing. • Bring the device within range (3 m) of the heart rate monitor while pairing. • If the problem persists, replace the battery. I have a third-party ANT+ sensor. The heart rate data is inaccurate or erratic. Make sure that it is compatible with the Edge (www.garmin.com/intosports). • Make sure that the heart rate monitor is snug against your body. • Reapply moisture to the electrodes. Use water, saliva, or electrode gel. • Clean the electrodes. Dirt and sweat residue on the electrodes can interfere with heart rate signals. • Position the electrodes on your back instead of your chest. • Wear a cotton shirt or wet your shirt if suitable for your activity. 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 of strong electromagnetic fields and some 2.4 GHz wireless sensors, which can interfere with your heart rate monitor. Sources of interference may include highvoltage power lines, electric motors, microwave ovens, 2.4 GHz cordless phones, and wireless LAN access points. 18 Edge 800 Owner's Manual

ANT+ Sensor Troubleshooting
Problem
Solution
The ANT+ sensor
will not pair with my
device.
•
Stay 10 m away from other ANT+ sensors while pairing.
•
Bring the device within range (3 m) of the heart rate monitor
while pairing.
•
If the problem persists, replace the battery.
I have a third-party
ANT+ sensor.
Make sure that it is compatible with the Edge
(
www.garmin.com/intosports
).
The heart rate data is
inaccurate or erratic.
•
Make sure that the heart rate monitor is snug against your body.
•
Reapply moisture to the electrodes. Use water, saliva, or
electrode gel.
•
Clean the electrodes. Dirt and sweat residue on the electrodes
can interfere with heart rate signals.
•
Position the electrodes on your back instead of your chest.
•
Wear a cotton shirt or wet your shirt if suitable for your activity.
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 of strong electromagnetic fields and
some 2.4 GHz wireless sensors, which can interfere with your
heart rate monitor. Sources of interference may include high-
voltage power lines, electric motors, microwave ovens, 2.4 GHz
cordless phones, and wireless LAN access points.
