M 93

most accurate OwnCal is received by
entering your clinically measured (in
maximal treadmill or bicycle stress
test) VO

2max

 and HR

max

 into the wrist

receiver. Energy expenditure
measurement is most accurate in
continuous activities such as cycling
and running.

OwnINDEX

:

 

Result of Polar Fitness

Test and comparable score with
maximal oxygen uptake (VO

2max

 in

ml/kg/min).

P1-P6, exercise phases

: Indicates

pre-programmable exercise phases of
the profile exercise. Each phase
includes adjustable number of interval
periods and a recovery period.

Profil

: Indicates a preprogrammable

exercise profile with six optional
phases.

RecoHr, heart-rate-based
recovery

: You set the heart rate,

which will end your recovery
calculation. In the File mode you
will see the drop in your heart rate
and the recovery duration.

M 92

LAPS

: Indicates how many lap times

have been stored.

Lap Time, Lp

: Indicates the time

the lap took.

Lim High

: The higher heart rate

limit of the target zone.

Lim Low

: The lower heart rate limit

of the target zone.

Limits

: Heart rate limits for target

zones.

MAX

: Indicates the highest

heart rate.

MAX

 

%

:

 

Indicates what percentage

your current heart rate is of your
maximum heart rate.

Mem full

: Appears on the display

when the memory is full. You can
continue your exercise and taking
lap times but they won’t be
recorded into the file.

MIN

: Indicates minimum heart rate

of exercise in the File mode.

ms

: Millisecond

Online*

:

 

Online recording allows

you to transfer your heart rate to
computer in real time. Place the

wrist receiver within the reception
range, 8"/ 20 cm, of the interface
and within range of the transmitter,
3 feet/ 1 meter.

OPTIONS

: Indicates the Options

mode.

OwnCal

:

 

Calculates energy

expenditure during exercise in
kilocalories. 1 kilocalorie (kcal) =
1000 calories (cal). You can follow
how much energy you lose by
exercising in one exercise session or
in a day, week or even a year. The
OwnCal can be used as a dose
measure of exercise Ex. in nutrition
planning. OwnCal calorie calculation
starts when your heart rate reaches
90 bpm or is above 60 % of your
maximum heart rate, whichever is
smaller. These limits are set to count
only exercise calories. The higher the
heart rate, the faster the energy
expenditure. OwnCal is individually
calibrated by your preset weight,
maximal oxygen uptake (VO

2max

) and

maximum heart rate (HR

max

). The

RecoTime, time-based recovery

:

You set the recovery time in the
Options mode. In the File mode you
will see the drop in your heart rate
and the recovery duration.

Rlx, Relaxation rate

: Relaxation

rate is most useful when measuring
your heart rate at rest or during light
daily activities, such as office work.
After exercise, Ex., in the following
morning, the value can also indicate
the state of your physical recovery. A
resting heart rate significantly higher
or a relaxation rate smaller than
normal may be an indication of an
incomplete recovery. Mental stress
typically increases heart rate and
decreases relaxation rate. Relaxation
rate measurement is based on the
heart rate variability, which indicates
your autonomic nervous system's
state. The degree of heart rate
variability is highly individual and
tends to decrease over time.

RR

: R-R recording rate measures

heart beat intervals, i.e. the time

*An optional IR Interface is required.
