Improving Foot Pod Calibration

Improving Foot Pod Calibration

Before you can calibrate your device, you must acquire GPS signals and pair your device with the foot pod (Pairing Your Wireless Sensors).

The foot pod is self-calibrating, but you can improve the accuracy of the speed and distance data with a few outdoor runs using GPS.

Stand outside for 5 minutes with a clear view of the sky.
Start a running activity.
Run on a track without stopping for 10 minutes.
Stop your activity, and save it.

Based on the recorded data, the foot pod calibration value changes, if necessary. You should not need to calibrate the foot pod again unless your running style changes.
