Inaccurate HR reading while using treadmill

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

While I am walking on a treadmill, my Blaze has highly inaccurate heartrate readings.  It can be as much as 80BPM more than what my chest strap HR monitor indicates. It also stops monitoring HR frequently, displaying no HR stats. At the end of the workout it shows that I spent 100% of my time in the PEAK HR zone.  Could this be the result of electronic interference form the treadmill display? Is this a common issue? I want to track my distance and steps but I also want an accurate record of my HR.  Is there a way to edit the HR information in an exercise record without having to manually enter each treadmill session?
