2. At any point you can press the
STOP button and the letters INT will remain on the
display.
3. You will also see one of three numbers on the
screen: 05, 15 or 60. These represent 5, 15 and 60
seconds recording intervals. You may choose to
have your heart rate information recorded at any
of these intervals. The shorter the interval, the
more memory each workout will use, so the
interval you select will affect the training sessions
you can store in memory.
4. To select the interval you want, press the
SELECT
button to cycle through the three
possible choices.
When the desired interval appears, press
SET/START-STOP button to verify how much
memory is left. At this point, LFT, (representing
the tim left in memory) will cycle alternately with
FLE. (This shows the number of the next file you
will create when you begin recording. So, if the
number 8 appears, it means you have seven files
already in memory and will be recording into file 8
in your next session).
You can look at the time left and decide
whether or not you wish to remove any files at this
point to make room for recording your next
workout.
7. If you wish to remove a file or files, simply
press the SIGNAL
button for each file you
want to erase. The highest file number will always
be shown, and the Sport Tester’s computer will
remove the last file in line each time you press the
SIGNAL
button. So, if the number 8 is
displayed (representing the next file you’ll record
into), the first file you’ll remove by pressing the
SIGNAL
button is the previously recorded
file 7, then file 6, and so on.
you do not wish to erase any files at this
time, you can press the SET/START-STOP button
to return to the beginning of the Measure
selection or press STORE/RECALL to start
measuring your heart rate. Remember that
recording begins automatically when you activate
the stopwatch.
Note: For instructions on activating stop watch
and using measuring operations please refer to
page 25, Exercising with Polar Sport Tester.
RECALL
What the selection does: It allows you to view and
analyze (either manually or via a computer
interface) the data on:
l
heart rate target zones
l
starting time
l
sampling intervals
l
heart rates at each interval
l
intermediate times
l
finishing time
Why you might use this selection: To review your
heart rates recorded during exercise and to
analyze and compare them against previous
exercise periods, also stored in memory. The
Polar Sport Tester Heart Rate Monitor gives you
ample high-quality data, precisely measured and
recorded by state-of-the-art technology. Analyzing
this information can show you when you are
exercising most efficiently, and how you can
improve your workouts. Such information is
invaluable both to athletes training for
competition, and to athletes who want to learn
how to maximize the value of their time spent
exercising.
