HEART RATE CONTROL PROGRAMS:
Program 9 to Program 12 are the Heart Rate Control Programs. In program 9, press the “Enter” key to
select TIME, DISTANCE and TARGET H.R. Users may set up a target heart rate at which they desire
o exercise over a selected period of time or over a certain distance. In Program 10 to Program 12, press
the “Enter” key to select TIME, DISTANCE and AGE. Then, press the
%
or
&
key to adjust the values.
Users may exercise over a selected period of time or over a certain distance with 60% Max Heart Rate
in Program10, 75% Max Heart Rate in Program 11, and 85% Max Heart Rate in Program 12. After
pressing the “START/STOP” key to begin exercising, please also switch on the heart rate detector, and
adjust it appropriately. In these programs, the computer will adjust the level of loading according to the
heart rate detected. For example, the level of loading may increase if the heart rate detected is lower
than the TARGET H.R. Also, the level of loading may decrease if the heart rate detected is higher than
the TARGET H.R. As a result, the user's heart rate will be adjusted close to the TARGET H.R. in the
range between TARGET H.R. 5 and TARGET H.R. +5.
User Setting Programs:
Program 13 to Program 16 are the user-setting programs. Users are free to edit the values in the order
of TIME, DISTANCE, AGE and the level of loading in 10 intervals. The values and profiles will be
stored in the memory after setup. After pressing the “START/STOP” key to begin exercising, please
also switch on the heart rate detector, and adjust it appropriately. Users may also change the ongoing
loading in each interval by pressing the
%
or
&
keys, which will not change the level of loading stored
in the memory. After the age is entered into the computer, it may suggest a target heart rate at which the
user should exercise. The suggested heart rate is 85% (220 age). Thus, if the heart rate detected is
equal to or greater than the TARGET H.R., the HEART RATE value will keep flashing.
Please note
that when the HEART RATE value is flashing, it constitutes a warning for the user to slow down
or lower the level of loading
.
Speed Independent Program:
Program 17 is a Speed Independent Program. Press the “ENTER” key to select the values of TIME,
DISTANCE, WATT and AGE. Then, press the
%
or
&
keys to adjust the values. After pressing the
“START/STOP” key to begin exercising, please also switch on the heart rate detector, at the
appropriate level. During the workout, the level of loading cannot be adjusted. In this program, the
computer will adjust the level of loading according to the value of the WATT selected. For example,
the level of loading may increase if the speed is too slow. Also, the level of loading may decrease if the
speed is too fast. As a result, the calculated value of WATT will be close to the WATT value selected by
the user. When the age is entered into the computer, it may suggest a target heart rate at which the user
should exercise. The suggested heart rate is 85% (220 age). Thus, if the heart rate detected is equal to
or greater than the TARGET H.R., the HEART RATE value will keep flashing.
Please note that when
the HEART RATE value flashes, it constitutes a warning for the user to slow down or lower the
level of loading
.
Pulse Recovery:
This function checks the condition of pulse recovery on a scale of 1.0 to 6.0, where 1.0 indicates the
best level of recovery, and 6.0 indicates the worst level of recovery. Between the two ends of the scale,
the rating increases or decreases by increments of 0.1. In order to obtain a correct reading, users must
test their pulse rate immediately following the workout, by pressing the “RECOVERY” key and then
stopping their exercise program. After the key is pressed, please also switch on the heart rate detector,
and adjust it appropriately. The test will last for 1 minute, and the test results will be displayed on the
screen.
