Product Reviews for Garmin FR60 Fitness Watch with Heart Rate and Foot Pod Bundle

Question: What type of workouts can I do with my FR60?

Answer:
Interval workouts are the only workouts that created and used on a FR60. These workouts must be created on the device itself.

No type of workout created on Garmin Connect or Training Center is capable of being downloaded to the FR60
_

Question: How do I perform a master reset on my FR60?

Answer:
To master reset the FR60 and clear all user data, press and hold MODE + LIGHT + UP buttons for 4 seconds.

On power up, the setup wizard automatically launches. The first screen will ask to set your language. If no buttons are subsequently pressed, the FR60 returns to SHIP mode (blank screen to conserve the battery). To start up the watch from SHIP mode, press MODE.

*Note: Pressing MODE and ENTER resets the FR60 without clearing user data.


Question: Why is my footpod not transferring data to my FR60?

Answer:
The FR 60 will only display data from the footpod when it is in Running mode. If the device is in General mode, it will not function properly with the footpod.
_
Question: What does Fitness Equipment Compatible mean according to my fitness device? Answer:
Several fitness equipment manufacturers* have integrated an ANT+ module in their equipment (treadmill, row machine, elliptical trainer, stationary bike).

This ANT+ module sends training session data from the machine back to the device. The data can then be uploaded to Garmin Connect for analysis. Certain data can be seen on the device depending on what mode is selected. When the FR60 or Forerunner 310XT is in RUN mode it will display treadmill information, and when it is in BIKE mode it will display indoor bike information. All other fitness equipment is mapped to GENERAL mode and will display the appropriate data fields for that mode.

Product Registration Registration
Register your product in just a few easy steps. Sign in to your Garmin account to begin the registration process.

The FR60 is a very powerful non GPS watch that comes in 3 different packages. Heart Rate only (MSRP $99.99), Heart Rate with USB ANT+ stick (MSRP $129.99) and Heart Rate with USB ANT+ stick and Speed and Distance (MSRP $199.99).

All models can have accessories added at a later date, so if you buy a model without Speed and Distance capabilities for example, you can add this option later. The features on all models are the same, but not all are beneficial without the proper accessory (You will not have much use of the Distance field if you do not have a foot pod for Speed and Distance). There are up to 6 customizable screens with 1 to 3 fields per screen. You have over 20 fields to choose from. With All Garmin models, you can update the watches firmware free which will give you updated features and fixes (You would need the USB ANT+ stick to accomplish this). With the USB ANT+ stick you also will be able to get all of your data onto your computer for more in depth analyzing with either Training Center on the computer or Garmin Connect on the web. These programs are free with the purchase of your Garmin.

Some things you can setup with the FR60:
-Intervals and workouts (based on time and/or distance)
-Alerts (based on Time, Distance, Calories, Heart Rate, Pace or Cadence)
-Virtual Partner (Used to pace you through a run or race. The screen example below shows how far ahead the user is based on their pace setting..)

Typically when people think about Garmin, they think GPS only. When people think about Heart Rate monitors, they typically do not think Garmin, but the FR60 is comparable to most Heart Rate monitors out there. There are not many comparable competitor models that have wireless transferring of data to the computer, new firmware updates and Garmin Connect (This will have its own issue dedicated to it). I am not here to say anything negative about the competition, but I do want to compare the FR60 with the Polar RS300/RS300SD (formerly known as RS200) to show some of the benefits of going with Garmin. What is different between these 2 watches? The FR60 bundle (HR, ANT+ stick and Foot pod) retails for $50 less than the RS300SD. The FR60’s foot pod is approximately ¼ the size of the RS300SD’s foot pod. If you want to download your data from the RS200 to your computer, you would need to spend an extra $55 on their Flowlink accessory, where the FR60 bundle comes with the ANT+ stick included in the package. You can do firmware updates with the FR60 when there are new features or fixes and have use of the Training Center or Garmin Connect.

The Garmin SDM4 foot pod is not a pedometer (Nike+ kit uses a pedometer), but an accelerometer. An accelerometer knows where it is in 3 dimensional space making it at least 95% accurate right out of the box. When calibrated, most people find it to be as accurate as the GPS models. Not only can the foot pod accurately give you your distance and pace, but it also gives your cadence (steps per minute). The foot pod comes with a clip to attach to your shoelaces and will also fit in Nike+ and Adidas miCoach shoes.

If you bike, you can buy the optional bike speed/cadence sensor for the FR60 as well (MSRP $60)

There are 3 different men’s and 3 different women’s colors of the FR60.

Heart Rate only comes in black only (MSRP $99.99):
Heart Rate and USB ANT+ stick(for wireless transfer from the watch to the computer) comes only in the red (Men) and lavender (Women) colors below (MSRP $129.99):

The FR60 Bundle (Heart Rate, ANT+ and Foot Pod) comes in black (like above in the Heart Rate only) or the Special Edition colors below (MSRP $199.99):

A benefit of special edition SKU is that these come with the premium soft heart rate strap at the same MSRP.

The FR60 bundle gives the customer many of the same features available with Garmin’s GPS models. The major difference is the FR60 does not have any of the mapping features (courses, back to start, way points…).
