Applies to: Atmos Home Treadmill, Cross-Trainer, Upright Bike, and Recumbent Bike — SE4 Console
Your SE4 console connects to an Apple Watch using Apple GymKit. Once connected, your heart rate shows on the touchscreen and your workout saves to your watch and to the Fitness app on your iPhone. This article shows where the contactless pad is, how to pair using the Workout app, and how to fix a connection that will not complete.
Read the steps below, or watch the short video.
Connecting
- Wake the console if the screen is dark — press STOP on a treadmill, or start pedaling on a cross-trainer or bike — and give it up to 90 seconds.
- Open the Workout app on your Apple Watch.
- Hold your watch against the contactless pad on the console — it is marked with the contactless symbol.
- Wait for “Connecting Your Device” to appear on the console, then “Apple Watch Connected”. Confirm on your watch if it asks you to.
- Set up and start your workout as you normally would.
| Connect before you start your workout. It takes a few seconds and needs the watch held steady against the pad. |
What you get
- Your heart rate on the console — it appears in the stats along the top of the screen, and it is what makes a Heart Rate Goal workout possible without a chest strap.
- Your workout on your watch — saved to the watch and synced to the Fitness app on your iPhone with the rest of your activity.
- One set of numbers — your equipment and the watch share data, so your figures are not two different numbers.
A Samsung Galaxy Watch connects using the same pad.
Troubleshooting
- Nothing happens when I hold my watch to the pad. The Workout app has to be open on the watch first. Hold the watch flat against the pad rather than near it, and keep it there for a few seconds.
- The console never says connected. Make sure the console is fully awake and showing the home screen. A console still starting up from ErP Mode cannot pair.
- My workout did not save to my watch. The connection has to be made before you start, and the workout has to be ended on the console. Walking away without stopping the workout may mean nothing is sent.
- I also wear a chest strap. Use one or the other. If you would rather use the strap, connect it under Settings and leave the watch out of it.
