Abstract: The invention concerns an arrangement and a method for configuring equipment for personal performance monitoring comprising at least one carrier item having a mounting zone for receiving a communication module, one or more sensors and/or actuators and a first processing unit functionally connected to said mounting zone and said sensors and/or actuators. The first processing unit is configured to process sensor signals from the sensors and/or actuators and to communicate with a communication module that is mounted on the mounting zone of the carrier item and having a second processing unit configured to further process said sensor/actuator signals and to communicate processed signals to a remote device over a wireless communication protocol. A remote device is adapted to provide a predefined code to configure the equipment to process sensor or actuator signals according to a use of said carrier item as identified by said predefined code.

Abstract: The present disclosure concerns determining physiological training effect of a physiological performance of a person by monitoring the performance using one or more performance-monitoring means in order to obtain performance data, and, according to one aspect of the invention, determining, using computing means capable of utilizing the performance data, a third training effect parameter describing a third physiological effect of the performance using a third determination method, the third physiological effect being a combination effect of the first and second physiological effects which are different from each other and are descriptive of different physiological effects of training, such as homeostatic disturbance and cumulative physiological load, respectively.

Abstract: A method for implementing a weather alarm in an outdoor computer includes defining atmospheric-pressure data repeatedly, defining altitude data repeatedly and essentially simultaneously with the atmospheric-pressure data, with the aid of a satellite positioning system, and converting both measured variables into the same measurement unit, either pressure or altitude. The difference between the converted variables is determined and is stored as a reference value, the difference between the converted variables is repeatedly monitored, and when the difference changes by more than a preset limit-value relative to the reference value, a weather alarm is given. Also an apparatus for performing the method.

Abstract: This publication discloses a method and apparatus for implementing a weather alarm in an outdoor computer (10-14). According to the method, atmospheric-pressure data (2) is defined repeatedly, altitude data (1) is defined repeatedly and essentially simultaneously with the atmospheric-pressure data (2), with the aid of a satellite positioning system, and both measured variables are converted into the same measurement unit, either pressure or altitude.
