NOTE:

Press any key to turn on the Pilot II console.

• Never disassemble the console or transmitter as it can not be reassembled.
• The console is water resistant, not water proof. Do not deliberately place it in water.
• To clean the console, wipe it off with a clean rag sprayed with diluted household cleaner.

DESCRIPTION

The Pilot II assembly consists of a console, a magnet, and a transmitter. A sensor in the transmitter counts the number of times a magnet mounted in the right crank passes the sensor.

The transmitter will then send a coded ANT+ signal to the console containing the measured values.

The console has onboard receivers that pick up RPM signals from the transmitter and heart rate signals from a telemetry chest strap. The heart rate is then shown in the display window. The console will track cadence (RPMs), speed (MPH/KPH), time, distance, and caloric expenditure.

NOTE:

Excessive use of the back light [ ]will drain the console batteries prematurely.

Expected life of the console batteries is 6 months to 1 year.

• If the console battery power is low, then "BATT LOW" will be shown in the display window for 2 seconds after the display is turned on to inform you to change the console batteries.

Expected life of the transmitter batteries is 6 months to 1 year.

DISPALY WINDOW

CADENCE

Cadence is the measurement of how fast the crank is rotating in RPM's. The approximate speed of the bike can also be displayed (MPH/KPH) in this area.

TIME

Time is the length of time (min:sec) since you pressed the start button.

DISTANCE

Distance is calculated as if the user was riding a bike with tires the same size of the flywheel. Speed at 80 Pedal RPM 18MPH

KCAL

Kcal is the approximation of calories burned during your workout. The calories are estimated by measuring your instantaneous heart rate (HR) and factoring in your age, ambient HR, and weight.

HEART RATE

This is the measurement, by telemetry (chest strap), of your heart rate in beats per minute (BPM).

Note: You must wear a chest strap during your workout in order to see your heart rate. The Pilot II console will detect heart rate signals from most chest straps that emit an analog signal and all ANT+ digital chest transmitters.

WARNING

IF AT ANY TIME DURING YOUR WORKOUT YOU FEEL CHEST PAIN, EXPERIENCE SEVERE MUSCULAR DISCOMFORT, FEEL FAINT, OR ARE SHORT OF BREATH, STOP EXERCISING IMMEDIATELY. IF THE CONDITION PERSISTS, YOU SHOULD CONSULT YOUR MEDICAL DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY

The Pilot II also features heart zone training. After selecting your maximum and minimum heart rate limits, the console will show flashing up or down arrows over the heart icon to indicate that you need to adjust your intensity either up or down to stay within your selected heart rate zone. See pg. 15 for more info.

Any time you want to bypass entering your personal data and start using the meter, simply press any key to turn on the console. After you press the [START] key, the timer will start

CADENCE TRAINING

Definition of Cadence

How rapidly the cranks are rotated or the rhythm of the pedal stroke; often referred to as RPM (revolutions per minute).

Concepts using Cadence for training

You can choose the goal of your workout in relation to Resistance, Cadence, and Heart Rate. The intensity of your workout is affected by pedal speed change and the resistance applied. This is quantified as RPE - Relative Perceived Exertion)

Resistance Used	Cadence	Heart Rate	RPE	Feeling
Light	RPM 50-70	35%-50% MHR	1-2	Very easy
Light	RPM 70-90	50%-60% MHR	3-4	Easy
Light	RPM 90-100	60%-70% MHR	5	Steady; c o m
Light	RPM 100-135	70%-85% MHR	6+	Challenging
Moderate	RPM 50-70	55%-65% MHR	4-5	Somewhat h a r d
Moderate	RPM 70-90	65%-75% MHR	5-6	Challenging, s t e a d y
Moderate	RPM 90-100	75%-85% MHR	6-7	Hard!
Moderate	RPM 100+ 85%-100% MHR		7-10	Very hard; c h a s i n g
Heavy	RPM 50-60	70%-80% MHR	6-7	Hard; talking is hard
Heavy	RPM 60-70	80%-85% MHR	7-8	Very hard; pushing
Heavy	RPM 70-80	85%-90% MHR	8-9	Very Hard!!
Heavy	RPM 80+	90%-100% MHR	9-10	Maximal

Resistance Used	Speed Change	Effects on Heart Rate
Light	Lower RPM	HR remains relaxed
Light	Higher RPM	HR begins to rise
Moderate	Lower RPM	HR near to steady state
Moderate	Higher RPM	HR rises from steady state
Heavy	Lower RPM	HR rises - hard effort
Heavy	Higher RPM	HR rises very hard to maximal effort

Warm-Up

Warm up is of critical importance to the success of your cycling. The demands of your riding profile should be prepared in the warm-up to achieve maximal results. You must get your working muscles to a temperature of optimum performance where the circulatory system is delivering oxygen and nutrients efficiently to those muscles. Depending on the workout session goal, warm up can take from 15 minute to 20 minutes.
