Technologies
-
Ant+
Wireless technology enabling the automatic transfer of data to the computer when it is within range of the watch.
-
TracBack
The route is recorded and displayed as a dotted line on the screen. Simply activate the TrackBack function to reverse the route back to the starting point.
-
Fréquence cardiaque
Permanently display your beats per minute to help you improve your physical condition.
-
Mesure Physiologique
- Stress Score: Determine if an increase in fatigue is occurring or imminent. To get the most out of this feature, measure at roughly the same time and under relatively similar conditions.
- Performance Conditions: Measure a real-time assessment of your pace variability and heart rate. A score of +10 means you are ready to take on your challenge and can expect to run under good conditions.
- Lactate Threshold: Eliminate empirical evaluations and precisely determine the speed at which you should actually run using your lactate threshold. Determine exactly when you start to fatigue quickly (for well-trained runners, this threshold occurs at about 90% of their maximum heart rate).
-
Power Glass
Glass that allows for solar recharging.
-
Body Battery
Optimize your body's energy reserves by using heart rate variability, stress, sleep, and other data to assess your fitness level or when you should rest.
-

-
Mode furtif
The "Stealth" button available in the "Command" menu allows you to switch the watch to a mode similar to "Airplane Mode" (on phones). By activating this function, you: - Prevent the storage and sharing of GPS location. This allows a user to go for a run (accumulating distance and other performance metrics) in a high-risk area (a secret military base) without the risk of revealing this location if the device is physically captured OR if the recorded activities are shared. - Disable all wireless communications (BLE/Wifi), in accordance with military regulations. This allows a user to easily deactivate all communication systems to and from the device.
-
Jumpmaster
The Jumpmaster function is designed for experienced parachutists, particularly for military personnel. The Jumpmaster function is designed for experienced parachutists, particularly for military personnel. It adheres to military guidelines for calculating the high altitude release point (HARP). The device automatically detects when you have jumped from the aircraft to begin navigation towards the desired impact point (DIP) using the altimeter and electronic compass.
-
Suppression / Arrêt d?urgence - Kill Switch
Allows you to instantly erase all data stored on the device. Press and hold the Light / Back button for 5 seconds: - "Secure" deletion (data recovery impossible) of all files added to the device. This includes all activity files (.fit) with GPS positions, waypoints, etc. - All user settings are reset to factory settings, including any personal information that may have been recorded.
-
Âge physique
This function uses actual age, resting heart rate, and other factors to estimate whether your body is younger or older than you.
