does the heart rate strap communicate with the watch with ant+?

The strap sends your pulse to the watch the watch is the display for the strap. As far as how it communicates i don't know. I don't know if that answered your question?

No. You have to place the index and middle fingers on the sensors that are next to the watch display. In a few seconds it will show the value of your heartbeat and the percentage relative to the maximum for your age.

The watch itself won't be able to figure that. That would be up to the app that you have paired with it. If your app figures this information, is compatible with the watch, and offers a screen to display it, then it will. I know if you use the Wahoo Fitness app and a heart rate strap it will figure that information and display it for you.

Hi. This watch works with Ant connection between watch and the heartrate monitor. Ant devises uses a frequency that doesn't work under water.

The watch comes with a sensor and chest strap to monitor your heart rate, but you can choose to not wear the sensor and use it as a watch only if you wish. Cory is right; although the heart rate is accurately recorded, the calories burned is not. Don't rely on it for that.

Yes. You can use any ANT+ sensor with it at any time, however you should use the HRM-RUN sensor for full features and functionality.

Ant+ model...?!!! It is just a simple heart rate monitor. I have no idea what a Vivofit is, what it does, or would it work with this heart rate monitor. Maybe the manufacturer can shed some light on the subject. Happy Trails.

No. Only Wahoo's BlueHR heart rate monitor will work with this watch. TomTom does not support ANT+ accessories, only Bluetooth. Fortunately, there are a lot of options appearing on the market these days as the industry moves towards Bluetooth.

I cannot answer specifically. But I ordered this and it did not work with my Timex watch. I would contact Timex. I have the Ironman Triathlon 200 Lap w/Digital Heart Rate Monitor. It seemed as if it should work but I couldn't get them to sync. I know it doesn't answer, but I would say check with Timex to be sure.

If your phone supports Ant+, it should work. I know the Garmin Ant+ heart rate monitors work with my phone. And the apps I've found are free. Only specific phones support Ant+. Mine is a Samsung Galaxy S4. With my phone and others that support Ant+, you don't need any accessory for the support. It's built in. You can also get an Ant+ dongle. Garmin makes one for Iphones, but you can also get one for some Android phones that don't have built-in Ant+ support. Here's a reference that talks about phones and dongles that provide Ant+ support: http://www.thisisant.com/consumer/ant-101/ant-in-phones If your phone supports Ant+, it should work.

No, the chest strap has an attached monitor that detects your heart beat/rate.

I currently use a Polar H7 Bluetooth heart rate monitor when I cycle and seem to get very accurate readings on both. And that's running both the Wahoo Fitness app and a Digifit app at the same time. I'm not sure if there are any bad effects when using this with a ANT+ monitor though, as I've never tried an ANT+ hr monitor.

You can use any "Ant" band from any brand. Like Garmin for example. It's compatible with your watch.

This watch has the ANTs wireless system which enables you to use and external footpod and Heart Rate monitor. You would need to purchase the timex HR sensor.

Dear Michael: Thank you for your question. I personally have only experience with the heart rate monitor that came with the TomTom watch. I suggest you connect with www.tomtom.com and ask them directly. Technical support by TomTom is outstanding.

This model does not include the heart rate monitor and strap. They do have a model that does, but this model is only the watch.

I have read that it is now compatible with with Garmin Connect app if you have the latest Fenix firmware. But I don't have the watch so can't confirm.
