SETTING AND OPERATING
PROGRAMMING THE XC100 & XC200
The programming of all functions of the XC100 and XC200 are accomplished in the same way.
The unit’s simple, one-button design makes programming easy with these three simple steps:
STEP 1: Enter a programming sequence by pressing and holding the key for 2 seconds. Once the screen changes
and you enter a sequence, release the key.
STEP 2: Adjust the display on the screen by pressing and releasing the key. The segment of the display being
adjusted will flash.
STEP 3: Once you have adjusted the display on the screen, set your choice by again pressing and holding the
key for 2-seconds. The screen will then advance to the next programming variable, or exit the programming
sequence.
SETTING THE CLOCK
1. From the Time of Day screen, enter the programming sequence by pressing and holding the key for 2 seconds.
2. Choose 12 or 24-hour format by pressing and releasing the key. Set and advance the display by pressing and
holding the key for 2 seconds.
3. Set hours, minutes (10’s) and minutes (1’s), and exit the clock programming sequence in the same manner.
SETTING AND OPERATING
SETTING THE HEALTH ZONE (XC200 ONLY)
The HEALTH ZONE functions are set from the Heart Rate screen. Your HEALTH ZONE is calculated using your
Maximum Heart Rate (MHR). The XC200 will estimate your MHR using your age and gender, or you can
set an actual MHR if you know it. Enter the HEALTH ZONE programming sequence by pressing and hold-
ing the key for 2 seconds.
A. Following the directions for programming listed on page10, begin by programming your age into the unit.
The unit will display “AGE” on the screen for a few seconds, and then advance to the number 10 with the
first (10’s) digit flashing. First program the 10’s digits of your age, followed by the 1’s.
B. Next choose either Male “M” or Female “F” and enter your choice.
C. The next screen will show your Maximum Heart Rate “MHR” for a few seconds, followed by the number that
the XC200 has estimated for your MHR.
D. If you wish to accept your estimated MHR, press and hold the key for 2 seconds.
E. If you know your actual MHR (from a stress test or other means), you can adjust the MHR setting to the
number that you desire, by 5’s. The XC200 will allow you to choose an actual MHR by cycling through a
range of ± 30 beats of your estimated MHR.
SETTING ABSOLUTE HEART RATE (AHR)
F. The last heart rate programming screen is Absolute Heart Rate (AHR). This number will usually be used if you
are under the care of a physician for cardiac rehabilitation. The first programming screen for AHR shows three
dashes “ --- --- --- “ indicating that the AHR function is inactive. To skip the AHR programming sequence,
simply press and hold the key for 2 seconds.
G. If you wish to program the AHR function, simply press the key until the number you want appears on the
screen, then set the number. Programming the AHR function will disable the Health Zone functions of the
XC200.
The Absolute Heart Rate Feature is designed for persons under the care of a cardiologist or in cardiac rehabilitation
therapy. It allows you to set a single heart rate number that is not to be exceeded during exercise. Once you have
programmed an Absolute Heart Rate number into the unit, exceeding that number will cause the display to flash and
the audible beeper tone to sound until you have reduced your heart rate.
