Heart Rate % Profile
The console LCD screen will display your current heart rate anytime a pulse is detected. The Bar
Graph, located to the right of the LCD screen, will show your current heart rate % in relation to your
projected maximum heart rate, which is determined by your age that you entered during the
programming phase of any of the 10 programs. The significance of the bar graph colours are as
follows:
50-60% of maximum is Amber
65-80% of maximum is Amber and Green
85-90% or more is Amber, Green, and Red
Quick Start
This is the quickest way to start a workout. After the console powers up, you just press the
Start
key
to begin; this will initiate the Quick Start mode. In Quick Start, the Time will count up from zero, and
the workload may be adjusted manually by pressing the
Level Up/Down
keys. The dot matrix
display will have only the bottom row lit at first. As you increase the workload, more rows will light,
indicating a harder workout. The elliptical trainer will get harder to pedal as the rows increase.
There are 40 levels of resistance available for plenty of variety. The first 10 levels are very easy
workloads, and the changes between levels are set to a good progression for de-conditioned users.
Levels 6-10 are more challenging, but the increases in resistance from one level to the next remain
small. Levels 11-15 start getting tough as the levels jump more dramatically. Levels 30-40 are
extremely difficult and are good for short interval peaks and elite athletic training.
Basic Information
The Message Center will initially be displaying the Program name. When in scan mode during a
program, speed will be displayed for four seconds, then move on and display Watts (indication of
workload). If 100 watts is displayed, you are doing enough work to keep a 100-watt light bulb lit. The
data changes to Laps completed Segment time, Max level. Pressing the
Enter
key again will bring
you back to the beginning.
The
Stop
key actually has several functions. Pressing the
Stop
key once during a program will
pause the program for 5 minutes. If you need to get a drink, answer the phone or any of the many
things that could interrupt your workout, this is a great feature. To resume your workout during
Pause, just press the
Start
key. If the
Stop
key is pressed twice during a workout, the program will
end, and the console will display your Workout Summary (Total time, Avg. Speed, Avg. Watts, Avg.
HR, total Laps). If the
Stop
key is held down for 3 seconds or a third time during the program, the
console will perform a complete
Reset
. During data entry for a program, the
Stop
key performs a
previous screen or segment function. This allows you to go back to change programming data.
