About sensors 
Sensors are external devices which you can link to your watch to provide information about your 
activity. Two types of sensors can be used with your watch: 
 External Heart rate monitor - this measures your heart rate as you train. The external TomTom 
Heart Rate Monitor is included in some products and available as an accessory for others. 
 Cadence/Speed sensor - this measures your cadence and speed as you cycle. The TomTom 
Cadence Sensor is included in some products and...

5. Select Heart, then move right to turn it on. 
6. When you begin an activity, your watch connects to the monitor and you see a heart icon at the 
bottom of the screen. 
 
When your watch is trying to connect to the monitor, the heart flashes. 
The first time your watch tries to connect to your monitor, if it finds more than one monitor, your

monitors within range of your watch.

Tip: Make sure the different parts of the Cadence/Speed Sensor are lined up correctly on your 
bike. The spoke magnet should pass the main body of the chainstay sensor and the crankarm 
magnet should pass the tip of the sensor. 
 
Once you have adjusted the sensors to the right position, tighten the cable ties so they are held 
securely in place....

When you have connected to your sensor once, your watch always reconnects to your sensor. 
When the chainring icon has stopped flashing, your watch is ready to measure your speed and 
cadence. For proper GPS tracking, wait until the GPS icon has also stopped flashing before you 
start your cycle activity. 
While you train, you can choose to show your current cadence or change the display to see your 
cadence. 
You can also use a training program to train to a target cadence zone.
