HEART
RATE
WINDOW
The Pulse (Heart Rate) window will display your current heart rate in beats per minute during the
workout. You must use both left and right stainless-steel sensors to pick up your pulse. Pulse values
are displayed anytime the computer is receiving a Grip Pulse signal. You may use the Grip Pulse
feature while in Heart Rate Control. The STEPPER will also pick up wireless heart rate transmitters
that are Polar compatible, including coded transmissions.
TO
TURN
STEPPER
OFF
The display will automatically turn off (go to sleep) after 30 minutes of inactivity. This function is
called sleep mode. In sleep mode, the stepper will power down most everything except for a
minimum of circuitry for detecting button presses and the safety button, so it will start up again if
these are activated. There is only a tiny amount of current used in sleep mode (about the same as
your TV when it is turned off), and it is perfectly fine to leave the main power switch on in sleep
mode. Of course, you may also remove the safety button or turn off the main power switch to power
down the stepper.
PROGRAMMABLE
FEATURES
Each of the programs can be customized with your personal information and changed to suit your
needs. Some of the information asked for is necessary to ensure the readouts are correct. You will
be asked for your Age and Weight. Your Age is also necessary during the Heart Rate control
program to ensure the correct settings are in the program for your Age. Otherwise, the work settings
could be too high or low for you, entering your Weight aides in calculating a correct Calorie reading.
Although we cannot provide an exact calorie count, we do want to be as close as possible.
CALORIE NOTE: Calorie readings on every piece of exercise equipment, whether it is in a gym or
at home, are not accurate and tend to vary widely. They are meant only as a guide to monitor your
progress from workout to workout. The only way to measure your calorie burn accurately is in a
clinical setting connected to a host of machines. This is because every person is different and burns
calories at a different rate. Some good news is that you will continue to burn calories at an
accelerated rate for at least an hour after you have finished exercising!
ENTERING
A
PROGRAM
&
CHANGING
SETTINGS
When you enter a program (by pressing the Program button to choose a program, then the Enter
key to select it), you have the option of entering your own personal settings. If you want to work out
without entering new settings, then just press the Start button. This will bypass the programming of
data and take you directly to the start of your workout. If you want to change the personal settings,
then just follow the instructions in the Dot Matrix Message Center. If you start a program without
changing the settings, the default – or pre-saved – settings will be used.
