How to record and save a heart rate session on your Garmin:

In order to record heart rate sessions and send them to CorSync, you must use the

Garmin watch to start the timer, workout, stop the timer to save the session, then sync

the Garmin watch with your phone.

1. Record a timer workout on your Garmin watch. These steps may vary for different

models of Garmin watch, refer to the watch manual on how to record a timer

workout. You must start/stop/save the timer in order to record a workout.

2. Important: Sync the watch with the Garmin Connect app on your smart phone.

Make sure the phone and watch are within ten feet of each other.

Open the Garmin Connect app on your phone and the Garmin watch

should sync as soon as the app is opened. You will see the sync icon

spinning at the top of the app while the sync is in progress. If it does not sync,

make sure that Bluetooth is turned on in your phone’s settings. Your data will

transfer from Garmin to Nuvita CorSync in a few minutes.
