is divided into 40 one-minute segments. The
same target heart rate setting is programmed for
all segments. (For a shorter workout, simply stop
the program before it ends.)
If pulse program 1 is
selected, the target
heart rate setting for the
first segment will be
shown in the flashing
Current Segment col-
umn of the matrix. The
target heart rate settings
for the
next several seg
-
ments will be shown in the columns to the right.
When only three seconds remain in the first seg-
ment of the program, both the Current Segment
column and the column to the right will flash and a
series of tones will sound.
