Altimeter and Barometer Features
Altitude with graphical trend – available via polarpersonaltrainer.com
Altitude is measured with an atmospheric air pressure sensor. Altitude is shown as ascended and descended meters/feet
and uphill/downhill steepness in percentages and grades.
Altitude, ascent and descent – meters, degrees, percentage
Altitude is measured with an atmospheric air pressure sensor. Altitude is shown as ascended and descended meters/feet

Body measurement features
Automatic age-based target zone – bpm / %
To help you train safely and effectively, the training computer determines your heart rate target zone limits automatically
according to your age-based maximum heart rate (220 minus age). The limits are determined either in beats per minute
(bpm), as a percentage (%) of your maximum heart rate, or as a heart rate reserve (% HRR). See also Maximal oxygen
uptake (VO2max) and Manual target zone.
Average and maximum heart rate of each lap
Average, minimum and maximum heart rate of training
Heart rate – bpm / % / graphical trend
Heart rate is the measurement of the work your heart does. Heart rate can be expressed as the number of beats per
minute or as percentage of your maximum heart rate. Heart rate can also be expressed as a percentage of your heart
rate reserve, meaning the difference between your resting heart rate and maximum heart rate (HRR = HRmax - HRrest).
In Polar software or during strength training, heart rate can be displayed as a graphical trend.
HR-based target zones with visual and audible alarm
You can define your target zones for a training session based on heart rate to help define the right intensity.
When you are out of the preset zones, the training computer will give a visual and audible alarm.
HRmax (age-based)
The highest number of heart beats per minute (bpm) during maximum physical exertion. For a rough estimate of your
maximum heart rate, subtract your age from 220. HRmax is a useful tool for determining the intensity of training
as intensity zones can be defined using HRmax. Some Polar products define maximum heart rate during the Polar Fitness
Test, see also HRmax (Polar Fitness Test -based).
Manual target zone – bpm / %
This feature enables you to define the target zone as you want and is suitable for your training. You can set the
target zone for your training as beats per minute (bpm), as a percentage of your maximum heart rate, or as a percentage
of your heart rate reserve (HRR%).
Polar OwnCal® – calorie expenditure with altimeter calibration
Polar OwnCal calculates the number of kilocalories expended during training. This feature allows you to follow
the kilocalories expended during one training session and cumulative kilocalories expended during several training
sessions. Some Polar products also estimate the fat-burning percentage (fat% on display), that is, kilocalories
expended from fat during a workout which is expressed as a percentage of the total kilocalories burned.
Polar OwnCode® (2.4 GHz W.I.N.D.) – coded transmission
Coded heart rate transmission automatically locks in a code to transmit your heart rate to the training computer.
The training computer picks up your heart rate from your transmitter only. Coding significantly reduces interference
from other training computers. The 2.4 GHz W.I.N.D transmission is disturbance-free from other electronic devices.
Polar OwnZone® – personal heart rate zone
Polar OwnZone® determines your personal heart rate limits for a training session. Depending on the day and
time, your physical state may vary, for instance, if you are stressed or tired, or if you are not fully recovered
from your latest training session, Polar can determine that information from your heart rate and guide you to your
ideal training zone for that moment.
Training load – available via polarpersonaltrainer.com
This feature is available in Polar software. When you transfer training results from your training computer to
polarpersonaltrainer.com, you can follow your training load and recovery in the training diary. Continuous monitoring
of training load and recovery will help you recognize personal limits, avoid over- or undertraining, and adjust
training intensity and duration according to your daily and weekly targets
CS cadence sensor W.I.N.D. features
Bike settings – for three bicycles
You can define settings up to two to three bikes in your training computer. When you start training, you can select
the bike with the correct settings for that particular training session.
Cadence – current, average and maximum
Your cycling cadence stands for your pedaling rate in revolutions per minute (rpm). Cadence is the central factor
in improving cycling performance. A higher cadence reduces the force needed for each pedal stroke, and thus improves
overall performance. Running cadence measures how many times your either right or left foot hits the ground in
one minute. Running cadence is measured as steps per minute. With this feature you can sharpen your cadence and
make your ground contact time shorter. This will help you to find a balance between leg power and leg speed.
CS speed sensor W.I.N.D. features
Autostart/stop
By activating Autostart/autostop feature, the cycling computer starts and stops training recording automatically
when you start or stop pedaling.
Bike settings – for three bicycles
You can define settings up to two to three bikes in your training computer. When you start training, you can select
the bike with the correct settings for that particular training session.
Distance – training, lap, and total
Distance (km, mi) can be set and measured in several ways. Training distance tells you the distance traveled during
a training session. Trip distance tells you the distance from the latest trip reset. Lap distance tells you the
distance of one lap. Total distance is the distance accumulated since the last reset. Odometer tells you the cumulative
distance which you cannot reset.
Speed – current, average and maximum
Data transfer
Compatible with polarpersonaltrainer.com – opt. with Polar DataLink
Power Output Sensor W.I.N.D. features
Power – current, average and maximum
Recording features
Totals
Totals includes your training data starting from the last reset enabling you to follow your long-term training.
Training files (with summaries) – 14
Weekly history – available via polarpersonaltrainer.com
Weekly history gathers your weekly training data. By selecting a week, you can review your training data for the
week.
Training features
Automatic display scroll
Automatic display scroll enables you to alternate between displays automatically during training without a need
to remove hands from handle bars. Activating automatic display scroll improves riding safety and comfort.
Automatic lap recording
With this feature you can set your training computer to take laps based on preset distance, for example, every
1 km/mi.
Graphical target zone indicator
This feature points out graphically on the display the zone you are in during a training session helping you to
stay on the desired intensity zone.
Interval timers
Use timers, for example, as a training tool in interval training to tell you when to switch from a harder to a
lighter period and vice versa. The timers can be time- or distance- based.
Number of laps – 99
Reminders – calorie expenditure, distance or time based
You can set reminders to alarm you of different tasks or training sessions, for instance, reminding you to drink
during a training session.
ZonePointer
ZonePointer is a visible and moving symbol on the training computer display indicating whether you are inside the
pre-set target zone. This feature helps you to reach the desired intensity/pace/speed/cadence targets.
