Pairing Your Wireless Sensors

The first time you connect a wireless sensor to your device using ANT‍+^® or Bluetooth^® technology, you must pair the device and sensor. After they are paired, the Edge^® bike computer connects to the sensor automatically when you start an activity and the sensor is active and within range. For more information about connection types, go to www.garmin.com/hrm_connection_types.

NOTE: If your device was packaged with a sensor, they are already paired.

Put on the heart rate monitor, install the sensor, or press the button to wake up the sensor.

NOTE: See your wireless sensor owner's manual for pairing information.
Bring the device within 3 m (10 ft.) of the sensor.

NOTE: Stay 10 m (33 ft.) away from other riders' sensors while pairing.
Select > Sensors > Add Sensor.
Select an option:
- Select a sensor type.
- Select Search All to search for all nearby sensors.
A list of available sensors appears.
Select one or more sensors to pair with your device.
Select Add.

When the sensor is paired with your device, the sensor status is Connected. You can customize a data field to display sensor data.
