Pulse systems
Every piece of equipment of the cardio line includes the original Polar Pulse System, which receives signals from
a breast belt by the exerciser (the breast belt is not included in the delivery of the equipment). The wireless
transmission to the electric display is coded. The Polar
©
technology is based on a magnetic field, which transfers
the signals. This magnetic field can be interfered by several sources. The most common reason is the use of
breast belts that are not 100% compatible with the Polar
©
-System and commonly have a longer range. Cell
phones, speakers, TVs, power lines, fluorescent tubes, and motors with high power can also interfere with the
Polar
©
Pulse System.
The measuring of the pulse frequency is ECG precise. Only when using coded breast belts, like T31C, the heart
rate gets transferred coded. When using an uncoded breast belt, like T31, the transfer is uncoded.
Hand pulse (optional – solely for units of the fitness line)
As an option, all units of the cardio line (fitness), excluding the body, can be equipped with a Polar
©
hand pulse
system combined with a coded wireless signal transmitter. With this technology, two advanced measuring
systems work together. The hand pulse measurement has priority over the wireless signal. When all 4 sensors are
touched, a hand symbol becomes displayed on the monitor. Approximately 10 seconds later, the digital
frequency display appears.
Please note, that cold dry hands, but also hands with lotion influence the measurement negatively. Because of
those reasons the hand pulse only works for about 95% of the users. In general, the hand pulse is not advisable
for tests and pulse controlled training. Machines with medical certification cannot be offered with this feature.
Ear-pulse (optional)
The ear-pulse-system with the optical measuring at the earlobe is available as an
option. If an ear-pulse cable is connected it has priority over Polar
©
pulse
measurement,
which
will
get
disconnected.
Attention:
Rub
earlobe
thoroughly before applying the ear sensor. To check proper operation of the sensor,
switch to the pulse display for surveillance. Therefore press the Scan-button three
times while exercising. The indication for the pulse signals has to be high and at regular intervals.
Multi-colour-backlight
All ergometers are equipped with a multicolour backlight for the LCD-Display. The electricity gets provided by
the brake. The brightness depends on the current load. Lighting is not possible with really low load because the
required power can´t get provided safely. The backlight of the ergometer turns on after some seconds in use.
Due to the backlight it´s easier to read the display, even if lighting conditions are bad.
Safety advice according to DIN EN ISO 20957
Warning! Systems for the heart rate surveillance can be
faulty. Excessive workouts can lead to serious physical
damage or death. Abort the workout immediately when
dizziness or nausea occurs.
