Pushing the Tracker's button will cycle the display to show you:
Steps
The steps displayed are the total since midnight, or since you started a recording (see
Recordings).
Walking and running steps are displayed as one combined total.
The steps recorded by your Tracker should be roughly 95-97% accurate.
Distance
Distance is calculated based on your walking steps times your walking stride length plus your
running steps times your running stride length.
Running steps are determined based on the frequency and intensity of your steps, so some fast
paced walks might be counted as running steps. This will only affect the distance calculation.
The default stride length is based on your gender and height and should be fairly accurate.
Generally speaking, it's better to use the defaults than to incorrectly calculate your stride length.
For better accuracy on distance calculations, calculate and enter your stride length in your
profile settings (see Calculating Stride).
The displayed distance can be toggled between miles and kilometers by changing your height in
your profile from feet and inches to centimeters.
The distance display can be disabled on Fitbit Ultra Trackers from the setup screen.
Calories
The Tracker records calories burned based on your activities throughout the day and your Basal
Metabolic Rate (see BMR).
When you manually log an activity on Fitbit.com, the calorie burn associated with it will be
added to your Tracker when you next sync.
The total displayed is how many calories you have burned since midnight, or since you started a
recording (see Recordings).
The calories display can be disabled on Fitbit Ultra from the setup screen.
