Pairing Your ANT+ Sensors

Before you can pair, you must put on the heart rate monitor or install the sensor.

Pairing is the connecting of ANT+ wireless sensors, for example, connecting a heart rate monitor with your device.

  1. Bring the device within 3 m (10 ft.) of the sensor.

    NOTE: Stay 10 m (30 ft.) away from other ANT+ sensors while pairing.

  2. From the app drawer, select Setup > ANT Sensor.
  3. Select your sensor.
  4. Select Search for New.

    When the sensor is paired with your device, the sensor status changes from Searching to Connected.

Tips for Pairing ANT+ Accessories with Your Garmin Device

  • Verify that the ANT+ accessory is compatible with your Garmin device.
  • Before you pair the ANT+ accessory with your Garmin device, move 10 m (33 ft.) away from other ANT+ accessories.
  • Bring the Garmin device within range 3 m (10 ft.) of the ANT+ accessory.
  • After you pair the first time, your Garmin device automatically recognizes the ANT+ accessory each time it is activated. This process occurs automatically when you turn on the Garmin device and only takes a few seconds when the accessories are activated and functioning correctly.
  • When paired, your Garmin device receives data from only your accessory, and you can go near other accessories.
