Notes
Note 1
This information is only precise enough on watches with barometric altimeter as altitude information cannot be derived precisely from GPS.
For further details, please click here.
Note 2
The EPIX watch does not support the Garmin SDK 1.2.6 or higher. Thus it is not possible for an app to access the heart rate profiles. Therefore the
heart rate zones are derived from the maximum heart rate configured by the user.
Note 3
Temperature sensor support is only possible if your Garmin device has an internal temperature sensor or you have an ANT+ TEMPE sensor.
