Allow the electrodes warm up properly to ensure
accurate heart rate measurement. If there are several
telemetric heart rate measurement devices next to
each other, the distance between them should be at
least 1.5 m. Similarly, if there is only one receiver and
several transmitters in use, only one person with a
transmitter should be within transmission range. the
transmitter is switched to an active state only when
it is being used for measurement. sweat and other
moisture can, however, keep the transmitter in an
active state and waste battery energy. therefore it is
important to dry the electrodes carefully after use.
When selecting training attire, please note
that some fibers used in clothes (e.g. polyester,
polyamide) create static electricity, which may
prevent reliable heart rate measurement. Please
note that a mobile phone, television and other
electrical appliances form an electromagnetic field
around them, which will cause problems in heart
rate measurement.
HAND GRIP PULSE MEASUREMENT
(HGP-VERSION)
Pulse is measured by sensors in the handlebars.
Pulse is measured when the user of Control is
touching both sensors simultaneously. Reliable
pulse measurement requires that the skin is
constantly touching the sensors and that the skin is
slightly moist. Too dry or too moist skin weakens the
reliability of hand pulse measurement.
HEART RATE IN TRAINING
First find your maximum heart rate i.e. where the
rate doesn’t increase with added effort. If you don’t
know your maximum heart rate, please use the
following formula as a guide:
220 - AGE
The formula gives an average value, the maximum
varies from person to person. The maximum heart-
rate diminishes on average by one point per year. If
you belong to a risk group, ask a doctor to measure
your maximum heart rate for you.
We have defined three different heart-rate zones to
help you with targeted training.
BEGINNER
•
50-60 % of maximum heart-rate
Also suitable for weight-watchers, convalescents
and those who haven’t exercised for a long TIME .
Three sessions a week of at least a half-hour each
is recommended. Regular exercise considerably
improves beginners’ respiratory and circulatory
performance and you will quickly feel your
improvement.
TRAINER
•
60-70 % of maximum heart-rate
Perfect for improving and maintaining fitness. Even
reasonable effort develops the heart and lungs
effectively, training for a minimum of 30 minutes at
least three TIMEs a week. To improve your condition
still further, increase either frequency or effort, but
not both at the same time!
ACTIVE TRAINER
•
70-80 % of maximum heart-
rate
Exercise at this level suits only the fittest and
presupposes long-endurance workouts.
CONSOLE
BUTTONS
1. SELECTION DIAL
The selection dial functions in two ways:
A) Rotating the dial (+ / -). By rotating the dial
clockwise, you can scroll the menus to the right, and
increase values or resistance. By rotating the dial
counter-clockwise, you can scroll the menus to the
left, and decrease values or resistance.
B) Pressing the dial (ENTER). By pressing the dial, you
can accept the selection you made when rotating
the dial.
2. START/STOP
Starts, pauses, and stops training. During training,
pressing this button once activates the pause mode.
Pressing the button again starts the program again.
3. RESET
Single push: return to the program menu. Long
push: restarts the meter.
4. RECOVERY
Calculates your recovery heart rate index.
DISPLAY
Small window: Time (mm:ss), speed (km/h or ml/h),
RPM (revolutions per min), distance (km or ml),
energy consumption (kcal), heart rate (bpm) and
power (W) are displayed.
Big window: Starts to automatically scan between
the values of time – speed – RPM – distance –
energy – heart rate – power every 6 seconds.
Scanning can be stopped by pressing ENTER button.
By pressing ENTER again you can change the big
window to display information for the next value.
PROGRAMS
1. MANUAL PROGRAM
Set target time and/or distance and/or energy
consumption and/or upper heart rate limit by using
the SELECTION DIAL.
Start training by pressing START/STOP button.
If you have set target/targets, the target/targets start
to count down. Adjust resistance with SELECTION
DIAL.
