Heart Rate Controlled Training (HRC)
These programs are a heart-rate controlled exercise programs. Here the user pre-sets a desired target heart
rate. The cockpit continually compares this value with the current heart rate of the user. If the current heart rate
is lower than the desired target heart rate, the cockpit will automatically increase the braking resistance. If the
value is higher, the cockpit automatically reduces the braking resistance.
An important requirement for these programs is the permanent and accurate transmission of the heart rate
readings. Because of this, these programs can only be used together with a heart rate chest belt available as an
optional accessory from our online shop www.maxxus.com . Please also read the section “Heart Rate Measure-
ment” in this manual.
Step 1: Program Selection
After selecting the user profile and confirming the personal data, select the “HRC” program using the +/- keys
and confirm your selection by pressing the ENTER key.
Step 2: Select the target heart rate
The cockpit offers you a choice of 4 different HRC programs:
−
55% - Training with a target heart rate of 55% of the maximum heart rate
−
75% - Training with a target heart rate of 75% of the maximum heart rate
−
90% - Training with a target heart rate of 90% of the maximum heart rate
−
TAGR - Training with an individual target heart rate
Select the desired program using the +/- keys and confirm your selection by pressing the ENTER key.
Step 3: Specification of the target heart rate
If you have chosen one of the programs 55%, 75% or 90% in Step 2, then skip this step and proceed directly to
Step 4.
If you have chosen TAGR, the value flashes in the pulse window. Now enter the desired target heart rate using
the +/- keys and confirm your selection by pressing the ENTER key.
Step 4: Specification of the training target
You now have the option to specify a training target.
You can choose from:
−
Training time (TIME)
−
Training track (DISTANCE)
−
Calorie consumption (CALORIES)
−
Rowing strokes (STROKES)
Select the desired value by pressing the ENTER key up to four times to get to “Rowing Strokes” and specify the
training target by pressing the +/- keys.
Then confirm your entry by pressing the ENTER key.
Please note that it does not make sense to specify more than one training target.
Step 5: Training Start
Now press the START key and start exercising.
Training End:
Training will end automatically when the training target has been reached.
Note:
If your current heart rate is higher than the target heart rate
