Test mode
Test mode provides several pre-defined tests. Eight tests can additionally be defined and stored by the user.
The first 11 tests represent standard ergometric tests. Furthermore, six training profiles, a walk protocol, profiles
VO2/10k, VO2/11k, VO2/12k, VO2/14k, profile Super Balke and test profiles 90-94 are available. They are
described in detail in the following chapters.
The UKK walk test (no. 1) is the only test where the running machine makes a calculation and an evaluation
(Fitness Index, but not for medical evaluation!). All other test profiles only control the load. There is no automatic
evaluation done by the running machine. The evaluation is to be done by host equipment (e.g. ECG,
ergospirometry, etc.) or external PC software.
N
Some test profiles (e.g. CONCONI test, Graded test, COOPER test, etc.) are endurance
tests (max. load and max. heart rate tests) and should only be performed after consulting a
medical doctor and under supervision of trained staff.
N
When using the treadmill for load tests, a medical doctor and a defibrillator must always be
within reach.
N
Proper warm-up and cool-down periods have to be considered.
N
Use a safety arch with chest belt system when making max. load and max. heart rate tests.
The following table shows the operating steps to run the treadmill via firmware or software h/p/cosmos para control
