GARMIN Edge 705

Small GPS receiver, designed as personal training assistant and bike computer with high-sensitive SiRFstar III antenna, large, easy to read color display, integrated base map, heart rate monitor, speed and cadence sensor, barometrical altimeter plus USB interface. The Edge 705 has 485 MB of built-in memory to store optional maps with even more detailed information, such as local roads, restaurants and points of interest. In addition, it has a slot for a standard µSD memory card.

As a personal training assistant, the GARMIN Edge 705 records the travelled path (track), the elevation profile, your heart rate, distance, time, computes the calories burned and helps to achieve your personal workout goals. The device is very easy to use, supports multiple languages and has an extremely sensitive antenna. It is the perfect partner for any biking activities. Beside the GPS receiver, the Edge 705 has a barometrical altimeter. The built-in USB interface supports data exchange with a PC

This device is especially well suited to provide information about your outdoor activities (track, speed, maximum speed, distance, elevation profile, time a.s.o.). Use the function "mark waypoint" to get the coordinates of the current location. The device also shows the current location on the map and in relation to user defined waypoints or routes.

Der Edge 705 is available in two different versions:

GPS device with heart rate monitor
GPS device with heart rate monitor and speed and cadence sensor

If you get version 1, you can always order the missing sensor later as an option.

Differences between Edge 205, 305, 605 and 705:

Features:

Best suited to be fixed on a bike, robust, very handy
Easy to read color display with background illumination (176x220 pixels)
Multilingual user interface in Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Italian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Slovakian, Slovenian, Spanish and Swedish
Integrated 12 channel GPS receiver with very sensitive built-in SiRFstar III antenna
Powered by built-in, rechargeable battery (lasts about 15 h), battery charger included
Integrated base map
485 MB of built-in memory to store even more detailed maps with local roads, points of interest etc. You may transfer these maps from a PC to the GPS
Slot for standard micro SD memory card ("TransFlash"). Memory cards are available as an option.
Chest belt with heart rate monitor. The chest belt uses a wireless, digitally coded signal, which means, once a heart beat sensor and the GPS have established a connection, the GPS will never receive a conflicting signal from another sensor. So you can exercise in close proximity to other sensors without fear of interference.
Speed and cadence sensor: Measures the number of revolutions of the back wheel and the crank arm with magnets and a wireless sensor. Like the heart rate monitor, this sensor uses a digitally coded signal. Once paired with the Edge 705, the GPS will never receive a conflicting signal from another sensor. So you can exercise in close proximity to other sensors without fear of interference.
Barometrical altimeter for precise elevation recording¹, accuracy ±3 m (10 feet), resolution ±30 cm (1 foot)
Powered by built-in, rechargeable battery (lasts about 12 h), battery charger included
Short time to first fix (TTFF²: approx. 15 seconds after a warm start, meaning there are valid coordinates of the satellites available, or approx. 45 seconds after a cold start, meaning there are no valid coordinates of the satellites available)
Firmware stored in Flash-Memory, can be updated by the user
Operating temperatures -15 .. 50°C (5° .. 120°F)
USB interface (connection cable included)
Dimensions: 51x109x25 mm (2x4.3x1 inches)
Weight: 105 g (3.7 ounces)
Water resistant up to approx. 3 feet (1 meter) for about 30 minutes (IPX7)

¹) Even though a GPS provides accurate elevation information, the value slightly varies continuously. A barometrical altimeter is therefore more accurate, especially when summarizing elevation changes.
²) TTFF: Time To First Fix, time until the first information about the current position is acquired.

Information about your training:

Personal profile: Stores personal information such as gender, weight and date of birth (in order to calculate the calories burned)
Bike profile: Stores the weight of three different bikes.
Stop watch with split times (laps). Records split times either manually by pressing the "lap" key or automatically based on a user defined distance or position.
Auto pause: Stops the watch automatically if the current speed drops below a user defined value, e.g. when waiting at a red light or during a short break.
Speed alert: Goes off when the current speed exceeds a user defined upper limit or when the current speed drops below a user defined lower limit.
Distance alert: Goes off after you have travelled a user defined distance. The alert can be set to go off only once or repetitive.
Time alert Goes off after a user defined time period. The alert can be set to go off only once or repetitive.
Heart rate alert: Goes off when the current heart rate exceeds a user defined upper limit or when the current heart rate drops below a user defined lower limit. Requires an Edge 705 with a heart rate monitor.
Cadence alert: Goes off when the current cadence exceeds a user defined upper limit or when the current cadence drops below a user defined lower limit. Requires an Edge 705 with a speed and cadence sensor.
Virtual Partner: This unique feature helps you to achieve certain goals for your workout. Choose one of the following combinations:
1. Distance & Time: Set the distance for your workout and the time you intend to achieve. Forerunner computes the speed required.
2. Time & Speed: Set the time and the speed for your workout.
3. Distance & Speed: Set the distance and the speed for your workout.
The virtual partner will keep exactly the speed required to achieve the goal you have set. The Edge 705 will constantly measure your current speed and compares it to the virtual partner's speed. It will ask you to speed up or slow down as needed and it shows on the display whether you are ahead or behind your virtual partner.
History: The Edge 705 keeps track of your workouts. It stores the date, time, number of laps, duration, distance, average speed, calories burned, average and maximum heart rate on a daily basis. It also provides weekly overviews and running totals for the duration, distance and calories burned.
Navigation: Indicates your current location on the map and in relation to user defined waypoints or routes. You can create routes with these waypoints. The GPS will guide you from one waypoint to the next indicating current direction and distance. You can save 50 routes.
Back to start: This feature helps you to travel all the way back to the starting point of your trip.
Stores up to 100 waypoints with name (up to 8 characters) and icon (choice of more than 30 symbols).
Stores up to 13'000 trackpoints of the most recent travelled path (tracking) and 1'000 laps.
Supports metric and U.S. units.
