If you start training, an automatic display change
SCAN
(symbol
2 in the display) will take place in a 5-second cycle. With the
Set
button you can switch it off. With the
+/–
button you then can skip
one display range forward or backward. If you activated the stro-
ke frequency preset mark (12) in the display, there will be a beep
in accordance with the stroke cycle, in order to assist you to main-
tain the stroke frequency.
If you press the
+/–
buttons together, you switch off the acoustic
stroke frequency signal and the mark (12) will no longer be dis-
played. This is also possible with a training interruption.
To be noted
If a preset value (except the pulse limit and stroke frequency) is re-
ached, it will immediately be accepted in the large display (9).
If you interrupt rowing, the electronic system will recognise an in-
terruption of training. The automatic display change will stop, the
SCAN
symbol disappears,
P
will be displayed and the current ran-
ge remains standing still in the large display. If you do not conti-
nue training within 4 minutes, the display will change to
room
temperature
(Fig. 1). In this case, the
distance
is added to the to-
tal kilometres covered. All
other
values
will not be stored
.
To be noted
With the
+/–
button you can skip one display range forward or
backward.
With the
Set
button you get back into the input mode. In this case,
all previous training data and preset values are deleted.
Start training again. The
values will count on
.
The training computer is equipped with a recovery pulse function
that enables you to measure your recovery pulse at the end of
your training. At the end of your training press the recovery pulse
button. The computer will count down for 60 seconds and mea-
sure your pulse (Fig. 13). Afterwards, a fitness value with (
F
) is
displayed (Fig. 14) the calculation of which is explained in 9.0
General. If pulse measuring is interrupted, (
P
) and an error mes-
sage (
E
) is displayed instead of a value (Fig. 15). If you press
the recovery button, the current training display will appear
again.

To be noted
If no pulse value is displayed, no recovery pulse function will be
performed.
Calculation of total kilometres covered
1 rowing stroke results in a distance of 5 m.
Kilojoule calculation
From the view of sports physicians there is the following energy
consumption during rowing: 1 hour of rowing with a stroke fre-
quency of 40 strokes per minute will consume 2930 kJ.
1 kilometre results in 244 Kilojoule.
The calculation is based on a medium strain level and is only
changed by means of a variation of the stroke frequency.
Fitness value calculation
The computer calculates and assesses the difference between
strain pulse and recovery pulse and your resulting "fitness value"
on the basis of the following formula:
Value (
F
) = 6 –
(
10 x ( P1 – P2 )
)
2
P1
P1 = Strain pulse
P2 = Recovery pulse
Value 1 = very good
Value 6 = unsatisfactory
The comparison of strain and recovery pulse is a simple and fast
possibility to control your physical fitness. The fitness value is a va-
lue of orientation with regard to your recoverability after physical
strain. Before you press the recovery pulse button and have the
computer calculate your fitness value you should have trained in
your strain range for a longer period of time, this means for at
least 10 minutes. With a regular cardiovascular training you will
notice that your "fitness value" will improve.
Information on pulse measuring
Pulse measuring starts when the heart in the display flashes ac-
cording to the beat of your pulse.
With ear-clip
The pulse sensor operates with infra-red light and measures the
changes in the light permeability of your skin which are caused
by your pulse beat. Before you fasten the ear-clip to your ear lob
please rub it strongly 10 times, in order to increase blood circu-
lation.
Avoid interfering impulses.
• Fasten the ear-clip carefully at your ear lob and try to find the
most favourable point for sensoring (heart symbol flashes with-
out interruption).
