An ergoselect ergometer with a control terminal K supports
the following operating modes:
PC MODE
An external device (e.g. stand-alone electrocardio-
graph, PC-based ECG system) controls the ergometer -
no intervention at all is required at the ergometer.
ERGOMETRY
The ergometer runs an automatic exercise test - some
of the corresponding test protocols are user-confi gu-
rable and stored in the system (see chapter "Settings").
TRAINING
Ten diff erent training protocols with warm-up, exercise
and recovery phases can be custom-confi gured (see
chapter "Settings").
A POLAR receiver is integrated in the ergometer and
provides the relevant data for heart-rate controlled
training sessions.

•
If, during an exercise test, the speed drops below 30 RPM,
the load readout starts blinking on the display.

To reactivate the saddle height adjustment function, press
and the arrow keys will again be displayed.

TEST
Integrated test protocols (steep ramping test, PWC
tests) allow an assessment of the physical fi tness.
MANUAL
The ergometer is controlled manually, i.e., the user
performs all load changes via the keypad.
SETTINGS
Used to confi gure the ergometer.

READOUT
At the top of the control terminal, there is a speed readout
for the patient as well as three LEDs that inform the patient
of the speed: too slow, too fast or correct.
The ranges for the respective speed ratings depend on the
selected load (see "Technical Specifi cations").
