General instructions
System signals
Activation of the device
If you activate the device, a signal is emitted during the
segment test.
Presetting
A short signal is emitted, if you reach a presetting like
time, distance and KJoule/kcal.
Exceeding of maximum pulse
If the set maximum pulse is exceeded by one pulse beat,
two short signals are emitted for the time of exceedance.
Recovery
Calculation of the fitness mark (F):
mark (F) = 6.0 –
(
10 x (P1–P2)
)
2
P1
P1 stress pulse P2 = recovery pulse
F1.0 = very good F6.0 = insufficient
Calculation of average value
The calculations of the average values refer to training
units in the past until a reset or the sleep mode.
Instructions for pulse measurement
The pulse measurement starts as soon as the heart in the
display blinks in time with your pulse beat.
With ear clip
The pulse sensor works with infrared light and measures
the variations in translucence in your skin, which are pro-
duced by your pulse beat. Rub your ear ten times strongly
to activate the blood circulation before attaching the pulse
sensor to your earlobe.
Avoid disturbing pulses.
• Attach the ear clip properly to your earlobe and look
for the best point for the measurement (heart symbol
blinks without interruption).
• Do not train directly under strong incidence of light,
e.g. neon light, halogen light, spotlight, sun light.
• Completely eliminate any shocks or bounces of the ear
sensor and the cable. Always attach the cable with a
clip at your clothing or, even better, at your headband.
With breast clip
Please observe the corresponding instructions.
With hand pulse
An extra-low voltage caused by the contractions of your
heart is registered by the hand sensors and evaluated by
the electronics assembly of the device.
• Always grab the contact faces with both hands.
•Avoid jerky grasping.
• Hold your hands calmly and avoid contractions and
rubbing on the contact faces.
Only one way of pulse measurement is possible: either
with ear clip or with hand pulse or with breast belt. If no
Comment:
ear clip or plug recipient is located in the pulse plug, hand
pulse measurement is activated. If you insert an ear clip or a
plug recipient in the pulse plug, hand pulse measurement is
automatically deactivated. It is not necessary to disconnect the
plug of the hand pulse measurement.
Failures with the training computer
Press the “SET” key for a longer period of time (reset).
Brake level display
The brake setting is divided into levels 1-10. If this division is
deranged or lost, you can reset it in the following way:
• Insert batteries and press the “SET” key until the segment tes
is completed.
•Turn hand wheel back to the minimum setting and press the
“SET” key when “LO” 0%, BRAKE 0 is displayed.
•Turn hand wheel forward to the maximum setting and press
the “SET” key when “HI” 100%, BRAKE 10 is displayed.
Process completed.
Training Instructions
Sports medicine and training science use cycle ergome-
try, among other things, for the examination of the func-
tional capability of heart, circulation and respiratory
system.
You can find out whether or not you have achieved the
desired effect from your training after several weeks
using the following method:
1. You manage a particular endurance performance with
less heart / circulation performance than previously
2. You sustain a particular endurance performance with
the same heart / circulation performance over a lon-
ger period.
3. You recover more quickly than previously after a par-
ticular heart / circulation performance.
Guide values for the endurance training
Maximum pulse: maximum strain means the reaching of
the individual maximum pulse. The maximum achievable
heart rate is dependant on age.
Here, the following empirical formula applies: the maxi-
mum heart rate per minute corresponds to 220 heart
beats minus age in years.
Example: age 50 years -> 220 – 50 = 170 pulse /
min.
