CalibratingtheCompass
NOTICE
Calibrate the electronic compass outdoors. To improve heading 
accuracy, do not stand near objects that influence magnetic  fields, such as vehicles, buildings, and overhead power lines.
Your device was already calibrated at the factory, and the device uses automatic calibration by default. If you experience 
irregular compass behavior, for example, after moving long 
distances or after extreme temperature changes, you can 
manually calibrate the compass.

using GPS.

changes, if necessary. You should not need to calibrate the 
foot pod again unless your running style changes....

StressScore
Stress score is the result of a three-minute test performed while 
standing still, where the quatix 3 device analyzes heart rate 
variability to determine your overall stress. Training, sleep,  nutrition, and general life stress all impact how a runner 
performs. The stress score range is from 1 to 100, where 1 is a  very low stress state and 100 is a very high stress state. 
Knowing your stress score can help you decide if your body is 
ready for a tough training run or yoga....
