Data Readouts
As you exercise, the treadmill keeps track of the following data:
BPM (Beats Per Minute) —
Your current heart rate. Heart rate will appear when a signal is
introduced. Use the hand grips for Contact Heart rate or wear a Polar® compatible heart rate chest
strap.
Calories —
The total accumulated calories burned during your workout. Your weight must be
correctly set before beginning your workout for this measurement to be most accurate.
Calories Per Hour —
Calculation of present workload’s energy exertion in Calories per Hour.
Distance —
The total accumulated distance, in miles or kilometers, during your workout.
Depending
on the defaults you’ve chosen this measurement will show in English or Metric
.
Metabolic Equivalent (MET) —
Relates to the user’s energy expenditure. A MET is a basic unit of
measurement that is used to compare relative work between individuals and activities. ‘One MET’ is
the amount of oxygen consumed at rest. For example, two MET would be twice that amount. If an
individual were working at four MET he/she would be consuming oxygen at a rate equal to four times
their resting consumption. MET can be used to compare walking on a grade with running or even to
cycling and other activities.
Pace —
At your current speed, how long it would take to cover a mile (or kilometer), displayed in
minutes:seconds.
Time —
The total time you’ve been working out or time remaining. Display time as
hours:minutes.
Watts —
Present workload energy exertion.
