Setting a Pacer
Setting a pace tempo provides motivation and helps you to maintain your
exercise intensity. To set a pacer, press the PACER key until the bar graph
highlights the desired step rate. The bar graph provides incremental markings
every 15 steps (15, 30, 45..., to 150). If you bypass the mark that you want to
set, continue to press the PACER key. It will cycle around to zero and you can
start over. Note that the pacer stops blinking when you maintain or exceed the
pacer’s step rate.
Using the Pulse Feature
With the Precor pulse feature, you can use the display to help maintain your
heart rate in its training zone. Diagram 24 on page 24 shows your target heart
rate or training zone. To receive the best possible cardiovascular fitness level,
you want to maintain your heart rate in your training zone while you workout .
You can use the pulse feature in one of two ways:
Diagram 21
Precor ear clip and Polar heart
rate options
•
Precor Ear Clip Option
. A pulse detector plugs into the electronic console.
Your pulse is detected once you attach the ear clip to your ear lobe.
•
Precor Heart Rate Option
. The receiver plugs into the electronic console.
When you wear the chest strap the console displays your heart rate.
To use the pulse feature, plug the pulse detector into the electronic console and
attach the ear clip to your ear lobe. See Diagram 21. Or, if you have a Precor/
Polar chest strap, put it on and plug the receiver into the electronic console.
Note: A
appears in the lower right corner of the display when you plug the
pulse detector in or attach the receiver and put on the Precor/Polar chest strap.
Follow the workout instructions on the following pages. Use the MODE key to
highlight SCAN mode or to select the PULSE display.
Important: Your heart rate will not appear if the pulse detector or chest strap
cannot transmit a heart beat. This can occur if you remove the ear clip (or chest
strap) or the ear clip (or chest strap) becomes dislodged. Occasionally, due to
medication, caffeine, or physiology of the heart (such as an irregular heart beat)
the receiver in the console cannot correctly detect a heart beat. Verify the
accuracy of the heart rate reading by taking your pulse one or twice during your
workout. For additional information, review the Owner’s Manual that accompa-
nied your Precor Heart Rate Option.
