HAND-GRIP (PULSE)
INSTRUCTIONS/USE
On this model the pulse rate is
measured by placing both hands on
the sensors (R), located on the
handlebar, as shown in Fig 3. When
both hands are placed on the sensors
the heart symbol on the right-hand
side of the screen, marked PULSE,
will begin to flash and after a few
seconds a heart rate reading will be
displayed. If both hands are not
placed correctly as shown in Fig 3
then the pulse function will not work.
If a “0” appears on the screen or the
heart symbol does not fl ash then
make sure that both hands are placed
on the sensors and that the
connectors (41-41a) and (42-42a) are
connected at the back of the
electronic unit.
TELEMETRIC PULSE RATE
(Optional)
.
The monitor is equipped to receive
signals from a telemetric pulse
measurement system.
The system comprises of a receiver
and a transmitter (T) (chest band) Fig
4.
This telemetric pulse rate system
takes precedence over the Hand-
grip pulse rate system when both
are used together.
(See telemetric pulse rate instruction
book).
TEST MEASUREMENTS:
FITNESS
This electronic device is equipped
with a recovery test function. This
offers you the advantage of being
able to measure how long it takes
your heart rate to recover after having
fi nished the exercise. After fi nishing
the exercise leave your hands on the
pulse sensors (R) and press the
“Fitness Test” button and this will
start a one minute countdown. Only
the Time and Pulse rate function
read-outs will remain displayed. The
electronic device will measure your
pulse rate during this minute. The
heart rate recovery time will be
displayed on the Heart rate line. If, at
any time during this minute, you
decide to abandon this test then
press the “Test” button and this will
take you back to the main screen.
When the minute is up, the electronic
device will work out the difference
and your fi tness rating will be
displayed up on the screen: “F1, F2,...,
F5, F16; where F1 is the best (fi tness
“Excellent”) and F6 the worst (fi tness
“Very Poor”). Pressing the TEST
button will take you back to the main
screen, where the functions will be in
the same mode as when the TEST
began.
The comparison between the worked
heart rate and the recovery heart rate
provides a fast, simple method of
gauging how fit you are. Your fitness
rating is a guideline that shows you
how fast your heart recovers after
physical exertion. If you exercise
