PART 2 - Using the Vasa Ergometer
STROKE MODE SUB-DISPLAYS (average watts, ave. force, max force)
Note: In all of the stroke mode sub-displays, the top three fields always display the same information. Only the
bottom left and right fields will change as you press the “Display” button.
STROKE MODE > AVERAGE WATTS
(Figure I)
In the average watts display, the fields are as follows:
Top: ELAPSED TIME since start of workout
Second: STROKE RATE in strokes per minute
Third: STROKE POWER (watts) for the last stroke
Bottom Right: AVERAGE WATTS for right side
Bottom Left: AVERAGE WATTS for left side
STROKE MODE > AVERAGE FORCE
(Figure J)
In the average force display, the fields are as follows:
Top: ELAPSED TIME since start of workout
Second: STROKE RATE in strokes per minute
Third: STROKE POWER (watts) for the last stroke
Bottom Right: AVERAGE FORCE
1
for right side
Bottom Left: AVERAGE FORCE

1
AVERAGE FORCE: measures the force applied during the
power portion of each stroke. The force is displayed in units
of Newtons: (1 LB = 4.45 Newtons; 1 Newton = 0.225 LBs).
STROKE MODE > MAX FORCE
(Figure K)
In the max force display, the fields are as follows:
Top: ELAPSED TIME since start of workout
Second: STROKE RATE in strokes per minute
Third: STROKE POWER (watts) for the last stroke
Bottom Right: MAX FORCE
2
for right side
Bottom Left: MAX FORCE

2
MAX FORCE: measures the maximum force applied at any
instant during each stroke. The force is displayed in units of
Newtons: (1 LB = 4.45 Newtons; 1 Newton = 0.225 LBs).
