FAQs

How do I change the batteries?

Locate the battery compartment on the device. Carefully open it, typically by unscrewing a cover or releasing a latch. Replace the old battery with a new one of the specified type, ensuring correct polarity, and securely close the compartment.

What is the 1/100s accuracy for?

The 1/100s accuracy refers to the precision of the timing intervals the device can generate or measure, ensuring the tempo beep is delivered at exactly the intended micro-interval for precise pace control.

Can I use this for open water swimming?

The Tempo Trainer Pro is designed for pool use and is waterproof. However, synchronizing with a pace clock or stopwatch is difficult in open water, and visibility of the device may be limited. It is best suited for controlled environments like pools.

How do I synchronize it with a pace clock?

Consult the user manual for specific synchronization steps. Generally, you will set the device to the desired mode and start the synchronization process while a visible timer or pace clock is running, aligning the first beep with a known time mark.

Does it track my distance or stroke count?

No, the FINIS Tempo Trainer Pro is a pace coach. It provides an audible beep to help you maintain a set tempo, but it does not track metrics such as distance covered, number of strokes, or laps.

What are the three different modes?

The three modes typically allow for different interval settings or synchronization methods. Refer to the product manual for detailed explanations of each mode's function and how to best utilize them for your training.

Troubleshooting

No beep sound

Ensure the battery is correctly installed and charged. Check that the device is not in mute mode (if applicable) and the volume is audible. Verify the mode is set correctly.

Inaccurate tempo

Re-synchronize the device with your pace clock or stopwatch carefully. Ensure the target pace is correctly calculated and entered.

Device not turning on

Check the battery; replace it if it is old or depleted. Ensure the battery is inserted with the correct polarity.

Water damage

Ensure the battery compartment seal is intact and properly closed before water submersion. If water damage is suspected, remove the battery immediately and let the device dry completely before attempting to use it.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To set up, press and hold the mode button to cycle through the three modes.
