Improving Foot Pod Calibration
Before you can calibrate your device, you must acquire GPS signals and pair your device with the foot pod
(
Pairing Your Wireless Sensors, page 46
).
The foot pod is self-calibrating, but you can improve the accuracy of the speed and distance data with a few
outdoor runs using GPS.
1 Stand outside for 5 minutes with a clear view of the sky.
2 Start a running activity.
3 Run on a track without stopping for 10 minutes.
4 Stop your activity, and save it.
Based on the recorded data, the foot pod calibration value changes, if necessary. You should not need to
calibrate the foot pod again unless your running style changes.
Using an Optional Bike Speed or Cadence Sensor
You can use a compatible bike speed or cadence sensor to send data to your device.
• Pair the sensor with your device (
Pairing Your Wireless Sensors, page 46
).
• Set your wheel size (
Calibrating Your Speed Sensor, page 47
).
• Go for a ride (
).
Calibrating Your Speed Sensor
Before you can calibrate your speed sensor, you must pair your device with a compatible speed sensor (
Your Wireless Sensors, page 46
).
Manual calibration is optional and can improve accuracy.
1 Hold .
2 Select > Sensors > Speed/Cadence > Wheel Size.
3 Select an option:
• Select Auto to automatically calculate your wheel size and calibrate your speed sensor.
• Select Manual, and enter your wheel size to manually calibrate your speed sensor (
).
Club Sensors
Your device is compatible with Approach
®
CT10 golf club sensors. You can use paired club sensors to
automatically track your golf shots, including location, distance, and club type. See the owner's manual for your
club sensors for more information.
Situational Awareness
Your Venu 2 series device can be used with the Varia smart bike lights and rearview radar to improve
situational awareness. See the owner's manual for your Varia device for more information.
NOTE: You may need to update the Venu 2 series software before pairing Varia devices (
Using the Garmin Connect App, page 49
).
tempe
The tempe is an ANT+ wireless temperature sensor. You can attach the sensor to a secure strap or loop where
it is exposed to ambient air, and therefore, provides a consistent source of accurate temperature data. You
must pair the tempe with your device to display temperature data from the tempe.
