Operation
Maintaining the Transmitter Belt
Clean the chest belt regularly with mild soap and water, then dry thoroughly.
Residual sweat and moisture keeps the transmitter active and will drain the battery
in the transmitter. Do not use abrasives or chemicals such as steel wool or alcohol
for cleaning, as they can damage the electrodes permanently. Replacement belts
can be purchased from an Authorized Nautilus Fitness Retailer or at
www.nautilus.com.
Heart Rate Priority
Telemetry (e.g., Polar
®
) HR signal detection is available. The default priority of HR
input is EITHER INPUT.
Locked/Non-Locked HR Signal Options
The EITHER INPUT option means that the HR source signal is not fixed during the
workout session. If the LOCKED INPUTS option is selected then the HR source
signal is locked on the first detected signal during the workout. To set a HR signal
input, or to turn off the HR option all together, perform the following steps:
1. On the console keypad, press [Level: UP], [3], [ENTER]. At this point the screen
will display CUSTOMIZE. Use the [Level: UP] key until HR INPUTS appears,
then press [ENTER] to select th option.
2. There are 6 options to handle HR input signals. Press the [Level: UP] and
[Level: DOWN] keys to scroll through the options until you find the option that
you want. Press the [ENTER] key to select that option.
LOCKED INPUTS
Once the console has detected a valid input signal it will
lock the signal for the duration of the workout session.
EITHER INPUT
Allows either telemetry or contact HR (not available on the
St
epM
ill
®
SM916) signals to be detected. Does not lock out
a particular input signal for the entire workout. This option
will detect either input signal during a workout session,
but only one at a time, and only until the other signal
terminates.
TELEMETRY ONLY
Locks out contact HR signals and will only detect telemetry
signals.
HAND ONLY
Locks out telemetry signals and will only detect contact HR
signals (not applicable on the St
epM
ill
®
SM916).
