When the Wristop Computer is in the Altimeter main mode, HRM main mode or any of the HRM sub modes and the transmitter is worn,

the Wristop Computer will automatically “search for” a heart rate signal. This procedure also initiates the heart rate measurement.

During the rst minute, measurements are taken every second, then for the next 4 minutes every 5 seconds. If no heart rate signal

has been received during the rst ve minutes, the “search for” a heart rate signal will end. After this process, the user can manually

activate the heart rate measurement by pressing the [+] button in the HRM main mode.
