Yeah, I figured it out. New
strap works perfectly now. Here's the deal: You have to go to the "pair" function in the correct mode on the watch and tell it to....well, "pair" the proper device. When it says "turn on device" then you have about 15 seconds to short out the 2 connectors inside the transmitter
strap, insert the battery, and twist close the back. Wait, Wait, Wait for it... then the watch says "successfully paired".
WEll, thanks for the help.
Max.
