Possibilities for Pulse Measurement
The pulse measurement starts as soon as the heart in the display
blinks in time with your pulse beat.
With ear clip
The pulse sensor works with infrared light and measures the
variations in translucence in your skin, which are produced by
your pulse beat. Rub your ear ten times strongly to activate the
blood circulation before attaching the pulse sensor to your ear-
lobe. Avoid disturbing pulses.
• Attach the ear clip properly to your earlobe and look for the
best point for the measurement (heart symbol blinks without
interruption).
• Do not train directly under strong incidence of light, e.g.
neon light, halogen light, spotlight, sun light.
• Completely eliminate any shocks or bounces of the ear sen-
sor and the cable. Always attach the cable with a clip at
your clothing or, even better, at your headband.
With chest strap
If a chest strap should be used optionally, the connection
between the chest strap and the training computer must be
established by using a plug-in receiver. Chest strap and plug-in
receiver can be ordered subsequently.
With hand pulse
An extra-low voltage caused by the contractions of your heart is
registered by the hand sensors and evaluated by the electronics
assembly of the device.
• Always grab the contact faces with both hands.
• Avoid jerky grasping.
• Hold your hands calmly and avoid contractions and rubbing
on the contact faces.
Note:
Pulse measurement can be accomplished: by ear clip, by hand
pulse, or by chest strap. If there is no ear clip or plug-in receiver
in the pulse jack, hand pulse measurement is activated. If there
is an ear clip or plug-in receiver in the pulse jack, the hand
pulse measurement is automatically deactivated. There is no
need to pull out the connector of the hand pulse sensors.
