3. TIME CHANNEL
Your Suunto n6
HR
comes with five channels—Time, Weather, News, Stocks, and
Calendar—that are available for use even before you activate the MSN Direct
service. The Time channel is fully operational and ready to go. The Weather, News,
Stocks, and Calendar channels have limited capabilities until you activate and
personalize MSN Direct. The Weather channel will display daily high and low
temperatures for your local city, the News channel will receive national news stories,
the Stocks channel will display major stock indices information, and the Calendar
channel includes a month-view calendar.
Once you activate MSN Direct, you can receive messages from others, view your
personal appointments, and view an events calendar for the things that interest you,
such as sports schedules, financial events, and local cultural events. You can also
subscribe to and receive personalized information from a number of additional
channels, such as News, Weather, Stocks, and Sports.
This guide provides instructions for using the Time channel. For instructions on using
the other channels—including Messages and Calendar—go to the MSN Direct Web
site at www.msndirect.com and click the Help link.
NOTE: Before you activate MSN Direct, you can also see the Register channel on
your Suunto n6
HR
. This is a temporary channel that displays the information you need
to activate the service, including the MSN Direct Website address and your Suunto
n6
HR
ID. The instrument ID is a number that uniquely identifies your Suunto n6
HR
so
that you can receive personal messages and information. The Register channel
disappears when you activate MSN Direct.
