14. TRAINING CONTROL WITH THE PULSE FUNCTIONS
See chapter 13 for information on making the settings. For focused
training control it is necessary to keep the pulse in certain ranges
through speci
fi c stress, see chapter 7.2. The different training
programs are de fi ned by a low limit and high limit. The pulse range
between the two values is usually the target range for your training.
After determining the pulse ranges (automatically or manually) your
VDO computer records the residency period in the target range as
well as the times above and below the target range. For real-time
monitoring your VDO computer indicates when you leave the target
range via an acoustic signal, if you have set this function beforehand
(see chapter 13.1)
14.1. TRAINING WITH THE STOPWATCH
The stopwatch offers the easiest possibility for capturing pulse data.
When the stopwatch is running pulse data is recorded. Interruption/
continuation of the recording is possible at any time with
∫ .
step 1 Preparing the recording:
- Set the training ranges automatically chapter 7.1, or manually chapter
7.2
- Select training program limit 1, limit 2, limit 3, chapter 7.3
- In the TIMER SETTINGS setting menu select STOPWATCH, chapter
13.2.
step 2 Beginning of the recording:
∫ Start the recording
4sec. ≈ Switch on/switch off the acoustic pulse signal
step 3 End/interruption of the recording:
∫ Stop the recording
step 4 Display of the values (even during recording)
≈ Display data via the LIMIT LO HI pulse menu (display
automatically shows the times for the three ranges
in %)
- Time above the high limit
- Time between the limit values
- Time under the low limit
step 5 Deleting recorded data
4sec.
∫
TIP: At the end of the training unit measure the recovery time or the
recovery pulse to determine your training status. See 7.4. Recovery
time and recovery pulse
Note: All bicycle altitude and pulse function can also be called up during
timer operation via the ç
√ ¥ ≈ buttons.
14.2. TRAINING WITH TIMER 1 / TIMER 2 / TIMER 1+2
Independently of each other Timer 1 or timer 2 offer the possibility of
integrating intervals with manual control in the training.
Timer 1: Programmable timer with forward counting, auto-repeat
function, single beep after elapse of timer 1.
Timer 2: Programmable timer with forward counting. Auto-repeat
function, double beep after elapse of timer 2.
