2. THE ALL-IN-ONE TRAINING SYSTEM

Training Computer Parts

With an integrated GPS unit, the Polar RC3 GPS training computer provides the

following data in all outdoor sports using Global Positioning System (GPS) technology:

• speed

• distance

• altitude

• ascent

• descent

• route information (at polarpersonaltrainer.com web service)

There are at least 24 active GPS satellites orbiting around the earth. The signals that

GPS satellites transmit to the earth indicate the location of the satellites. The training

computer receives the signals and determines your location by measuring the

distance between itself and the satellites.

The training computer combines the signals from at least four satellites to get a

reliable speed, distance and location reading. To calculate the altitude, the training

computer requires a minimum of six satellite signals.

Connect the training computer to your computer with a USB cable to charge the

battery and to transfer data between the training computer and the

polarpersonaltrainer.com web service.
