3. ACTIVITY DIARY

Activity Diary

Polar Active saves your daily activity in the activity diary. There is room for 21 days in the diary. When the memory becomes full, the activity monitor overwrites the oldest day.

If the teacher has set an activity measurement period that lasts more than 21 days to your monitor, you get a message Diary memory full in x days when the activity diary is getting full.

To save your activity data for a longer period of time, download it to polargofit.com web service. For further information, see Polar Activity System Guide.

Enter the diary from the time view by pressing the UP and then the GREEN button.
