How to use the Polar IR Interface

Polar IR Interface is the most recommended way for communications with S-series HR monitors. It enables the most reliable communication with all Windows PC operating systems.

1. Connect the Polar IR Interface to the computer's serial or USB port.
2. Open Polar Precision Performance SW 3.0. Select Options - Preferences and open the Hardware tab. Then select the port to which the interface is connected on the IR Communication Port field. You can check a computer's ports using the System function on the Windows Control Panel.

1. When using the communication be sure that the monitor is in the CONNECT mode that can be selected by pressing the lower right button.
2. Keep the distance between the HR monitor and Polar IR Interface as short as possible (recommended maximum 15 cm).
3. Check that there is not too much sun light, because it might disturb the communication.
4. A bleak or glossy surface may cause interference to IR communication.
5. Check that there is not any other IR devices near.
6. Check that the low battery indicator on the monitor display is not shown.

Different Polar products use different methods for transferring information to a computer.

Infrared Connection
You can transfer exercises from Polar S610i, Polar S625X, Polar S710i, Polar S720i, Polar S725, Polar S725X and Polar S810i via an infrared connection. In addition, you can use Polar IR Interfaces or other manufacturers' IrDA supported IR interfaces. A computer's internal infrared port can also be used. With Polar S610, Polar S710 and Polar S810 data transmission is enabled through Polar IR Interfaces only.

Action data from Polar AXN500 and Polar AXN700 can be transferred using IrDA compatible infrared interfaces, for example, a computer's internal infrared port. Note that Polar IR Interfaces are not IrDA compatible.

UpLink
UpLink connection allows you to transfer different settings made with Polar Precision Performance analysis software to all Polar S-series and Polar AXN wrist units. Settings are transferred through the computer's speakers or headphones. You can also make and transfer settings to your wrist unit, as well as transfer logos from Polar web site, using Polar UpLink Tool.

SonicLink
SonicLink data transfer can be used with Polar S410, Polar S510 and Polar S520. Exercises are transferred through the computer's microphone. Note that you can transfer exercise data via SonicLink to Polar Precision Performance analysis software only from wrist units that record samples. For example, some Polar Fitness Heart Rate Monitors have the SonicLink feature, but they do not record samples.
