Downloading Data from S610, S625x, S710, S720, S725 & S810 Heart Rate Monitors
There are two methods of downloading from the Polar S series devices. The first method, two-way downloading, is similar to that used by the Polar PPP software and V3.0 of iSMARTtrain. The second method, read-only downloading, is available for users who cannot get the two-way downloading to work correctly. Both methods are detailed below.
Two-Way Downloading
To import data from the S-series of Heart Rate Monitors, place the watch into 'Connect' mode by pressing the 'Down Arrow' button.
Place the watch in front of the Polar Interface unit, and select 'Download Polar Data' from the 'Add' menu. Select the port to which the interface unit is connected, the click 'OK'. A dialog box will be displayed, showing the progress of the transfer.
Once the transfer has finished, all the sessions on the watch will be shown. To add sessions, click the checkbox next to the session, and click the 'Sync' button. The sessions are then added to the log file.
Read-Only Downloading
An alternative method for downloading is described below:
Select 'Download Polar Data' from the 'Add' menu.
Select the type of monitor you have and the port the adaptor is connected to.
In the 'Comms Mode' popup, select 'Read-Only'.
Put the HRM into 'Connect' mode, then press the red 'lap' button, and use the right-hand buttons to scroll to the session you want to download. To download all the sessions on the watch, select 'ALL'.
Place the HRM in front of the interface.
Click the 'Read' button in the dialog box, and press the red button on the HRM. You should see the download progressing on the screen.
Once the download has finished, the dialog box will close and the details of the session will be showing in the panel - click 'Sync' button and the session will be added to your training diary.
