Triax CV10
Nike Triax CV10 - Successful HRM reset 7 November
2008
I had real problems too. Even after repeatedly
following the known reset steps everyone else is posting up. Here’s how I got
mine going, please forgive the mind bogglingly tedious detail…
First make sure you’re using new good quality
batteries. I used Maxell’s, bought in 10’s from Hong Kong on ebay – no problem.
Second, and this is the ESSENTIAL bit…move right away
from the computer and any other electromagnetic sources before carrying out the
known reset…
Third, follow the known reset steps below, adjusted to
what worked for me…
If you press all four buttons of your Nike HRM it
will reset. Next time you go to "RUN" mode, it will show "HRM
LINK" error. You will now need to "hard reset" the unit.
Nike made a late change to add a "hard
reset" to the chest strap. To re-link (re-initialise) the watch you'll
need to open the battery door on the chest strap, and use a paper clip (or the
equivalent) to push the small gold button in the battery area. There should be
a small sticker in the battery compartment that points to the reset button.
The re-initialisation steps for the Nike C10 and
CV10 digital HRM's is:
(1) reset the watch
(2) open the battery door on the chest strap
(3) move the watch to RUN mode
(4) press the reset button in the chest strap
battery area without removing the battery
Tip - I agree with the suggestion to use a pin or
needle and definitely do it with the battery in the hrm.
Tip – Thumb holds battery to stop it from pinging
out, other hand performs jiggle with pin until the link is made (it links
straightaway if you jiggle it just right!)
(5) replace chest strap battery cover…and smile!
