HEART RATE MONITORING
HEART RATE INPUT
The 7000 PT console uses telemetry (e.g., Polar
®
) heart rate signal detection.
Ensure that your console is set up for telemetry signal detection only. There is a
short “lock out” period at the beginning of each workout session during which
the console first detects a signal and then validates the signal type.
• Telemetry heart rate - after the initial belt signal is detected, the
console will enter a validation phase in which four good heart
beat signals within four seconds are required before
locking on telemetry heart rate signals for the duration of the
workout session. During the validation phase the console will not
recognize contact heart rate signals.
Locked/Non-locked Option
When the “not locked” option is selected the heart rate source signal is not fixed
during the exercise (if the signal is lost either input will be valid). If the “locked”
option is selected then the heart rate source signal is locked on the first detected
signal during the workout. To set a heart rate signal input, or to turn off the heart
rate option all together, perform the following steps:
1. On the console keypad, press [LEVEL: ∧], [3], [2]. At this point the
screen will display “HR INPUTS.” Press [ENTER] to select this
option.
2. There are 4 options to handle heart rate input signals. Only 2 of
those options are appropriate for the 7000 PT; "Both HR Off", and
"Telemetry Only." Press the [SELECT] key to scroll past the other
options until you find either "Both HR Off" or "Telemetry Only."
Press the [ENTER] key to select the desired option.
