Recently purchased a HAC4.
I've been using it for a couple of weeks now and find that on descents
, the hear rate readings either jump around wildly or just stay on
zero.
The problem also seems to occur when riding fast on the flats.
It is almost as if the receiving unit is unable to process the data
it is receiving quickly enough - from the wireless transmitter on
the fork and the heart rate monitor chest strap . I have moved the
fork-mounted transmitter as close to the rim as possible to shorten
the distance between bar-mounted receiving unit and the
trasmitter but this did not seem to improve things.
The speed readings are also flakey when riding > 25 mph. I do have
another magnet and a wired speedo on my front wheel (on the right
side - the HAC4 is mounted on the left) - i don't know if this could
be an issue.
When riding at moderate speeds , Heart Rate and speed data seemes
reliable.
I haven't yet tried changing batteries of cleaning contacts - odd that
it is only when going fast that this is an issue.
Any help appreciated
