    Hi!

    I have just tried to set this up to beep when pulse rate is out of
    limits. No matter what I do I can't make it beep. The pulse rate
    flashes as it is meant to, I turn the sound on by pressing the "light"
    key for a period and the symbol appears on the display. But no
    beeping...

    Of course I have already turned sound on.

    What am I doing wrong?

    Thanks
    Dave

    As fare as I can see nothing, sounds like a defect beeper to me.

    Regards

    I don't think so, unless both our watches have defective beepers, cause I
    have exactly the same question (and symptoms).

    I found the answer, and it sucks. You have to turn off bike mode to get it
    to beep. Sort of makes limits a useless feature on a bike if you have to
    look at the watch to see if you're under or over.

    Thanks for the response. As you say the cure sucks...

    Thanks again.

    Haven't tried this yet, but it should work.

    Create an exercise set for intervals based on heart rates. Set your upper
    and lower limits and an infinite number of repetitions.
