Training and Operating Instructions

1. Training Without Defaults

- Press one button

STOP is displayed and TIME flashes for the input of a training time and a pulse value is displayed when the pulse signal is detected via the ear clip, hand pulse or plug-in receiver.

and / or

- Pedalling

The training time and following displays are shown as counting upwards.

The display change is active and is shown using SCAN.

The display areas change every 6 seconds.

2. Training With Defaults

Default values can be input under time, distance and energy. These values count downwards at the start of training. If zero is reached, the display flashes and a signal tone is output.

Upward counting is then started again with the default value.

Under pulse, a value can be input, which flashes when it is exceeded.

- Press one button

Display: "TIME" default

Display: Readiness for training with time default

• Pedalling starts the training

Default values are displayed as counting downwards.

SCAN display change is active

Comment:

• Pressing "MODE" stops and starts the display change.
• When defaults are reached for time, distance and Kjoule/Kcal
  (0-values), brief signal tones are output and the bottom display areas flash. From now, the values count upwards again.
• If the input pulse value is exceeded, the bottom pulse display flashes as a warning.

Interruption or End to Training

If there are fewer than 15 cadences/min, the electronics detects that training has been interrupted. STOP SCAN is shown in the display and the training data is displayed in rotation.

→ RPM or SPEED → TIME → DISTANCE → Kjoule/Kcal → PULSE → ODO → etc.

- Pressing "MODE" stops and starts the display change.

The training data is displayed for 4 minutes. If you do not press any buttons or train in this time, the electronics switches to standby mode and displays the time.

An interruption to training is detected with a delay of a few seconds.

Resuming Training

If you continue the training within 4 minutes, the last values continue counting or count downwards.

RECOVERY Recovery pulse stage

The RECOVERY function can be used after each exercise program.

The RECOVERY button is used to initiate recovery pulse measurement at the end of exercising. Initial and final pulse during one minute are used to calculate deviation and a fitness score. In case of equal exercising, improvement of such score is a measurement for increase of fitness.

When reaching the target values, end exercising and press the RECOVERY button; then, leave your hands at the hand pulse sensors. In case of previous pulse measurement, the display shows 00:60 for time, and the PULSE display shows the current pulse value (flashing). The countdown starts at 00:60. Leave your hands at the hand pulse sensors until the countdown reaches >0<. The display will show on its right a value between F1 and F6. F1 is the best status; F6 is the worst status. The function can be ended by pressing again RECOVERY.

If no pulse is measured in the beginning or at the end of the reverse counting, the error message "Err" is displayed.

Training and Operating Instructions

General instructions

System signals

Activation of the device

If you activate the device, a signal is emitted during the segment test.

Presetting

A short signal is emitted, if you reach a presetting like time, distance and KJoule/kcal.

Exceeding of maximum pulse

If the set maximum pulse is exceeded by one pulse beat, two short signals are emitted for the time of exceedance.

Recovery

Calculation of the fitness mark (F):

$$ \operatorname{mark} (\mathbf {F}) = 6. 0 - \left(\frac {1 0 \times (P 1 - P 2)}{P 1}\right) ^ {2} $$

P1 stress pulse P2 = recovery pulse

F1.0 = very good F6.0 = insufficient

Calculation of average value

The calculations of the average values refer to training units in the past until a reset or the sleep mode.

Instructions 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 earlobe.

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 sensor and the cable. Always attach the cable with a clip at your clothing or, even better, at your headband.

With breast clip

Please observe the corresponding instructions.

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.

Comment:

Only one way of pulse measurement is possible: either with ear clip or with hand pulse or with breast belt. If no ear clip or plug recipient is located in the pulse plug, hand pulse measurement is activated. If you insert an ear clip or a plug recipient in the pulse plug, hand pulse measurement is automatically deactivated. It is not necessary to disconnect the plug of the hand pulse measurement.

Failures with the training computer

Press the "SET" key for a longer period of time (reset).

Change of batteries

If the display is only slightly illuminated, the batteries must be changed. The values and default settings of the previous training session will get lost. The time setting must be entered again.

Training Instructions

Sports medicine and training science use cycle ergometry, among other things, for the examination of the functional capability of heart, circulation and respiratory system.

You can find out whether or not you have achieved the desired effect from your training after several weeks using the following method:

1. You manage a particular endurance performance with less heart / circulation performance than previously
2. You sustain a particular endurance performance with the same heart / circulation performance over a longer period.
3. You recover more quickly than previously after a particular heart / circulation performance.

Guide values for the endurance training

Maximum pulse: maximum strain means the reaching of the individual maximum pulse. The maximum achievable heart rate is dependant on age.

Here, the following empirical formula applies: the maximum heart rate per minute corresponds to 220 heart beats minus age in years.

Example: age 50 years -> 220 - 50 = 170 pulse / min.

Load Intensity

Load pulse: the optimum intensity of load is reached at 65–75% (see also diagram) of the maximum pulse. This value changes depending on age.

Extent Of Load

Duration of a training unit and its frequency per week:

The optimum extent of load is attained, if 65–75% of the individual heart / circulation performance is achieved over a longer period.

Empirical Formula:

Training frequency Duration of training

daily 10 minutes

2–3 times a week 20–30 minutes

1–2 times a week 30–60 minutes

Beginners should not begin with training units of 30-60 minutes. The beginner's training can be planned as follows in the first 4 weeks:

4 minutes of training

It is recommended that you perform approx. 5 minutes of exercises before and after every training unit, in order to warm up and cool down. There should be a training-free day between each two consecutive training units, if you prefer training sessions of 20-30 minutes 3 times a week later on in your training. Otherwise, there is no reason why you should not train daily.
