1. INTRODUCTION TO SUUNTO SMART BELT
The Suunto Smart Belt is a sophisticated heart rate recorder and wireless transmitter. Self-
contained and easy to use, it transmits data to a Suunto Team POD, Suunto PC POD or
Suunto t-series heart rate monitor. It also records data on an integrated memory chip for
downloading and analyzing at a later time. Designed for athletic, educational and wellness
environments, the Suunto Smart Belt can be successfully used by athletes, fitness enthusi-
asts and physical education participants with minimal instruction or fuss.
As a recorder, the Suunto Smart Belt gives users the freedom to train when, where and how
they want. Ideal for swimming, running, cycling or walking, the Suunto Smart Belt can record
more than a hundred hours of training sessions without losing a beat. After downloading the
data, an athlete, trainer or researcher can analyze and log it with Suunto PC software and
receive detailed information based on heart rate variation.
As a transmitter, the Suunto Smart Belt is ideal for team sports in which watches and jewelry
are banned or impractical. Operating on a secure, 2.4 GHz frequency, the Suunto Smart Belt
transmits real-time heart rate information to a coach, trainer or researcher for immediate
analysis during workout. What’s more, if a break in transmission occurs, the complete train-
ing session can be retrieved from the unit’s internal memory.
Self-contained, easy to operate and virtually maintenance-free, the Suunto Smart Belt is the
ideal heart rate monitor for teams, trainers.
