one hour of use per day). The transmitter strap (PS-2524) is designed to fit medium to extra-extra large. An accessory
transmitter strap (PS-2519) available separately from PASCO fits small to extra small.
Wearing the Transmitter Strap
The electrode areas that are on the reverse side of the transmitter strap detect the
signals from the cardiac muscle.
1. Wet the electrode areas under running water and make sure that they are well
moistened.
2. Attach the transmitter to the connector snaps on the transmitter strap.
3. Adjust the strap length to fit snugly and comfortably around your chest just
below the chest muscles.
Transmitter Strap Options
•
Option One - Under a Shirt: Follow steps 1, 2, and 3 above. Put the strap
around your chest and connect the strap hook to the loop in the other end of
the strap. Make sure that the wet electrode areas are firmly against your skin
and that the transmitter is in a central location and the Polar logo on the
transmitter is upright (see Option One).
•
Option Two - Over a Shirt: To use the transmitter over the top of a T-shirt or
tank top, follow steps 1, 2, and 3 above. Put the strap around your chest on
top of the shirt and connect the strap hook to the loop. Then, wet the shirt
beneath the electrode areas of the strap so that the shirt and the skin beneath
the shirt are well moistened.
•
Option Three - Hold in Both Hands: Wet the electrode areas and connect the
transmitter to the strap, but hold the strap with both hands so that the palm
area of each hand touches the wet electrode areas. [NOTE: With this option,
the data quality may vary.]
