H. Watt Independent Program:
Program 17 is a Watt Independent Program. Press the “ENTER” set the TIME,
COUNT, WATT, and AGE. Press the “START/STOP” key to begin exercise, and
place your hands on the contact heart rate sensors. During exercise, the level of
resistance is not adjustable. In this program, the display computer will adjust the
level of resistance according to the preset WATT value. The level of resistance
may increase if speed is too slow in order to maintain the watts. Also, the level
of resistance will automatically decrease if the speed is too fast. As a result, the
calculated WATTs will remain close to the WATTS preset. The suggested heart
rate is 85% (220 – age). So, if the heart rate detected equals to or greater than
the TARGET H.R., the value of HEART RATE will keep flashing. Please note
that the flashing heart icon is a warning for users to slow down or decrease
the resistance .
I. Pulse Recovery:
To check your heart rate during recovery this program scales your progress from
1.0 to 6.0. 1.0 is “the best” and 6.0 is “the worst”, increments are 0.1. In order
to rate your recovery correctly, perform this test right after your workout is finished,
by pressing the “PULSE” key. After the key is pressed, place your hands on the
contact heart rate sensors. The test will last for 1 minute and the result will show
in the display.
