5.4 Actions prior to start-up.
Connect the interface with the Tablet by Bluetooth or with the cable or with a cable
to one of the COM ports of the computer.
Note: The interface derives its energy from a battery pack or if connected to the
COM port, no batteries are needed. The RP3 software assigns the voltage on some of
the COM port contacts at the appropriate value for the interface.
User identification.
Introduce a new user to the system by filling out the first time you run the software.
The weight, gender, boat and sprocket data are used to calculate a weight- and
gender- corrected time and boat speed. These times are close to the real times made
in the chosen type of boat under ideal conditions with technique in the boat near to
perfect.
For RP3 and RP3S you choose by sprocket the big sprocket, because there is no
option for the small sprocket.
For RP2 and old models RP3 the small sprocket of the rowing simulator is the left
one, the big sprocket is the right one, nearest to the fan.
Type of training.
The type of training to be performed by the oarsman can be chosen by giving a
certain amount of work to do or by indicating certain intensity. The amount of work
can be expressed in terms of STROKES, ENERGY, DISTANCE or TIME. The chosen
parameter then is counted down from the limitation value down to zero. At the end
of the session the results are presented in DISTANCE, TIME, total ENERGY
dissipated, and POWER (average over the total session in Watts).
If the option INTERVALS is chosen, the number of intervals, and the units in which
the intervals are going to be counted down, the required POWER during the
interval, POWER during the rest period, as well as an incremental value per interval
can be selected. Note: Always choose the number of intervals one higher than the
number to be rowed.
Further you can find a more detailed subscription of the software in the manual
under HELP.
The WORK SCREEN.
The work screen presents a visual display of the performance of the oarsman or
oarswoman in comparison to selected target values, and therefore is a very valuable
tool for improving technique and for synchronizing crews during the wintertime or
at great distances.
