Using Garmin 210 just to track calories indoors?

Hi, everybody.

I own a Garmin Forerunner 210, with the heart rate strap. I was wondering if there was any way to use it as a HRM indoors, while I am just on elliptical or other machines.

Unfortunately I don't own the food pot.

Any ideas?

    Yes, turn it on, press page/menu, it will ask 'use indoors', scroll to yes, press 'ok' page/menu button and voila:)
  • Oh, that is simple! I had been wondering if it would still do the calories counting then. Thanks so much!

    Yep, that simple. I do it all the time when I'm just in the gym.
