Question polar cs200: anyone having problem with speed display cutting out?

Used my cs200 for the first time on the road today. It displayed speed for most of the ride, but intermittently displayed "0.0" (and I was moving, not fast, but I was moving). Polar instructions suggest electromagnetic interference but I didn't see anything that would cause that. Any insights/suggestions?

Is the magnet close enough to the sensor?

Thanks

Operator- thanks, I looked and adjusted it, maybe it will help. While doing that, I noticed that the magnet from a prior computer was nearby, so I removed it. Maybe the sensor was picking up two signals? Thanks for your help. salv2112
