Is there a way to disconnect an external HRM mid-activity?

I've got a Polar chest strap that keeps cutting out while I'm in the middle of a run. 

Obviously I need to fix or replace the strap, but this has happened before with a low battery. Is there a way to change back to wrist monitoring if I'm in the middle of an exercise?

I tried disabling the strap itself, and put the battery part in my pocket, but then the watch just complained that I had no heart rate. 

I clicked around a bit, but ultimately had to exit the workout and start a new one, which is less than ideal. 

  • Hello,

    While in activity you just press and hold "UP" button (middle on the left side) for menu to appear then go to "Settings & Accessories", select your HR sensor and press "START-STOP" button on "Status" position – you will see Status: Off..
