Pulse sensors / Cardio sensor chest band
The
pulse sensor (ear clip)
included in the package is an important accessory to
the
ergo_bike
.
You should not start any training session without it, or without the
Cardio
sensor chest band
available as an option ! The
pulse sensors built into the handle
can
be used to control or monitor the heart rate over short periods of time.

Special accessory
You will find a precise description of the display
and the meaning of the corresponding display
symbols on page 6 (
Displaying pulse status
).
available from:
The wireless
Cardio sensor chest band
(see the figure to the right), available as an
optional accessory
(order number 90 91 015),
permits
more precise measurements
.
( See page T 1 )
All
ergo_bike
ergometers are equipped with a
built-in
, not visible from the outside,
Cardio pulse receiver
.
This allows receiving of the pulse rate transmitted by any standard chest band, of the coded and non-
coded type. You only need a
cardio sensor chest band
(see page T1) to achieve wireless heart rate
measurement.
Warning: using two chest bands simultaneously in the same room, either of the coded or non-
coded type, to achieve wireless heart rate measurement can lead to the display of a wrong pulse
rate on the dashboard of the
ergo_bike
.

Pulse measurement over the hand surface
The sensors built in the handle are used to control and monitor the pulse rate over short periods of time. To
achieve a correct measure you should lay your hands relaxed and loose (not tight) on the electrodes. The
electrical resistance of the skin varies as a consequence of blood pressure variations due to heart pulses.
These variations are measured by the electrodes and displayed as heart rate on the dashboard.
The ear clip pulse sensor illuminates the ear lobe to measure
the pulse rate. Every heart pulse modulates the light passing through the lobe, and can thus be detected
by an infrared sensor and displayed as heart pulse rate.

1.
Attach the pulse sensor
(ear clip)
to
the ear lobe so that the two contact surfaces
sit entirely on the skin. The
heart symbol in
display window 1 starts blinking
to
indicate that the ear clip is properly attached
and functional!
You should rub the ear lobe energetically
with your fingers to stimulate blood circulation.
Warning!
Strong light sources, like sunlight, halogen
projectors or neon lamps, and also ear piercing
or ear rings, and the intake of beta-blocker
could affect the measurements!
Pulse sensor (ear clip)
Advice:
If measuring the pulse rate over the hand electrodes gives no results, we recommend using
either the ear clip method or the Cardio sensor chest band. The variations of the electrical
resistance of the skin are so small for some persons that they cannot be used to acquire any
usable results.
