Data Displayed During Measurement Operations

Note the points below concerning the data displayed while a measurement operation is in progress.

  • Since speed and distance traveled are measured using the watch’s or your smartphone’s GPS function, location measurement error may result in measured value error.
  • Speed and distance are calculated at regular intervals, so there may be some lag before values are displayed.
  • Hyphens (-) are displayed in place of the speed and distance readings when the watch is unable to acquire location information (GPS).
