1. Name and distance of the activated route
The name of the selected route is displayed.
2. Time measurement
During the first meters movie and time run automatically. If
you do not ride the entire route the data of the passed in-
termediate measurement points are displayed in the result
window, while no end time is shown.
Touch OK after reaching the finish. This automatically displays
the result list, so that you can directly compare your own data
with your previous results or those of others.
3. Selected gears
The length of the lines relates to the smaller/larger sprockets:
3 front and 10 rear sprockets. The active gears are marked in
red. Good to know: The red lines the furthest to the left are the
easiest gears.
4. Speed
Your current bicycle speed in kilometers per hour.
5. Gradient/slope in percent
The real resistance that you feel is displayed in percent. In ac-
cordance with the gradient the resistance gets greater or less.
On a downward slope you feel no resistance. However, you
must continue cycling to move the film.
6. Covered distance
Distance from the start.
7. Distance still to be covered
Distance to the finishing line. The intermediate measurement
points are not displayed. Find this information on the rear of
the DVD cover.
8. Resistance
This level has been selected in the input window; displays your
selected level of difficulty for the route.
9. Personal data
These values have been entered in the input window
.
10. Heartbeat and calorie consumption
Praxtour is set for automatic reception of heartbeat and calo-
rie signals. Each sensor transmitter on 5 MHz is suitable to be
displayed in the information bar.
The Polar T31C chest band is available in our web shop.
Your current heartbeat is displayed in white. For comparison
the maximum heartbeat (from the input window) is displayed
in red. Below the calorie consumption per minute is displayed.
11. Wattage and RPM
These values help you training systematically.
Please note: Only in the REAL resistance the wattage can be
measured accurately. In levels SPORT, MEDIUM and LIGHT the
resistance does not correspond to reality. For this reason the
wattage measuring is not realistic.
12. Progress bar
At a single glance you can see how far you have progressed.

Start - SingleRiding
After selecting a route and filling in the personal details cor-
rectly follows the selection between SINGLERIDING, TIME-
RIDING and MULTIRIDING. TimeRiding and MultiRiding are
covered further down in this user manual. Ensure that SING-
LERIDING is activated (= green) and touch NEXT to start.
The following warning is displayed:
PLEASE NOTE: Do not immediately select a difficult resistan-
ce if you are not certain or not well trained. This device is no
child’s play; it gets close to the reality! Develop your perfor-
mance slowly. Return to the personal data input window and
change the data accordingly.
CANCEL: Return to the start window.
OK: The starting position of the route is displayed:
When pedaling the film moves ahead according to reality. If
you pedal slowly in a low gear the film moves slowly. You pedal
harder if you select a high gear and this moves the film more
rapidly. You can see the current gear of the Praxtour in the
information bar at the bottom of the screen. With your gear
shifters you change your gears, just like on a modern racing
bike. Your selected gear and the number of revolutions of your
pedals determine the speed with which you cover the route.
Pause
If you ride slower than 4 km/h the program goes into PAUSE
mode. When you stop pedaling to pause, a pause window is
displayed, in which you have to select between:
• NEXT: Carry on cycling (you do not have to touch the button,
just starting to pedal again is sufficient). If the film is inter-
rupted or stops just carry on pedaling to make it move
forward;
• STOP: Navigate to the result list;
• EXIT: Stop program, turn off Praxtour.
The program stops the ride automatically if the route is not
continued within 30 minutes.
Finish
Touch OK after reaching the FINISH to display the RESULT
window.
Result
The result window can be accessed if you are not cycling. A
result list of the most recent and ten fastest rides is displayed.
Every route has its own result list. It is only accessible for the
selected route or selected part thereof.
• Erase: The own selected result is deleted.
• Erase all: All own results are deleted.
• Save USB: Connect your USB stick to the console,
touch “Save USB” and save the data to (E:\).
• Load USB: Connect your USB stick to the console,
touch “Load USB” and obtains the data from (E:\).
The entered names stay saved in the memory after cycling.
When cycling again you only need to touch your name. Your
personal details are automatically displayed, together with
your last selected difficulty level. These data can be adjusted
at any time.
Exit
Touch RETURN to exit the program. Turn off the entire system
by touching SHUT DOWN.
You can also turn off the system by
pressing down the POWER button on the console front panel.
During longer periods of non-use set the main switch at the
rear of the PowerConsole to (O).
