NOTE! You must wear a Polar T41 heart rate belt when
you use PSC! A blinking square in the Heart Rate
display indicates that heart rate measurement is in
operation.
NOTE! Attach the holder of the safety key carefully to
your shirt whenever you are using PSC. Adjust the
length of the safety key wire so that it will be detached
from the meter, if you move too far back.
NOTE! If you are exercising with PSC, there must not
be another heart rate transmitter near the treadmill
(minimum distance 2 m); the simultaneous signals of
two transmitters endanger user safety by interfering with
the PSC.
PSC SETTINGS
PSC settings should be done with the treadmill at a
complete stop.
1. Start the use of PSC by setting the speed zone limits.
Press the PSC key.
2. Depending on the previous settings, either PSC ON
or PSC OFF will be displayed. Use the arrow keys to
change the setting to PSC ON and press ENTER.
3. PRESS ENTER TO CALIBRATE PSC OR START
TO EXIT will be displayed. Position yourself in the
middle of the track. The acceleration zone begins
approximately 10 cm ahead of the measurement point,
while the deceleration zone begins approximately 20
cm behind the measurement point. Press ENTER and
the text PLEASE WAIT 8 will be displayed. The meter
will now measure your distance on the basis of the heart
rate signal. Measurement takes 8 seconds, and after that
CALIBRATION READY PRESS START is displayed.
4. If the meter cannot receive the heart rate signal
or there are problems in measuring the distance, the
meter will return to the CALIBRATE display. In case
of such an error, the text CHECK TRANSMITTER
is displayed. You should then make sure that you have
properly followed the instructions on the use of the
heart rate belt.
If the speed zone limits are suitable for you, the next
time you start exercising you can start PSC just by
selecting PSC ON and pressing ENTER, and then
select the desired training mode. If you want to change
the speed zone limits, repeat steps 1-4 and move
to a more suitable position on the track before the
measurement.
TRAINING WITH PSC
1. Select Manual exercise, Rolling Hills profile, a
condition test or the standard heart rate exercise with
automatic elevation adjustment. In these exercises you
can adjust the track speed with PSC. The PSC signal
light indicates that the feature is in operation. T80 /
T85 is equipped with three PSC signal lights that show
in which speed zone you are currently running (Rabbit
= speed increases, - = constant speed, Turtle = speed
decreases).
2. Start the selected exercise by pressing the START
key, and adjust track speed by moving forward or back
on the track. Please note that the speed adjustment
keys (Turtle/Rabbit) are also in operation during a PSC
exercise. NOTE! If you have not tried the PSC feature
before, we recommend you start at slow speed.
MEMORY FUNCTION
The Memory function requires the use of a user code:
the exercise is saved under the selected user code. You
can save 5 exercises under each user code.
SAVING YOUR OWN PROFILE
1. You can save preset profiles once the exercise is
completed, but do not press STOP! (If you want to save
your Manual or HRC workouts, finish the exercise by
pressing STOP once.) Save your exercise by pressing
MEM.
2. The display prompts for a memory slot (SAVE AS
OWN 1-5). Select the desired memory slot with the
arrow keys and press ENTER to confirm your selection:
your workout is now saved to the desired slot.
3. If there are no empty memory slots, replace a previous
profile with a new one. The display then prompts you
to confirm (REPLACE OWN 1-5). Press ENTER to
confirm your selection: your workout is now saved to
the desired slot.
4. SAVED AS OWN 1-5 is displayed to confirm your
save. After 10 seconds, the meter will automatically
switch to its initial state.
NOTE! A total of 30 speed or elevation changes can
be saved in each profile. To save a profile, you need to
exercise for 10 minutes or more.
USING YOUR OWN PROFILE
1. Select your user code.
2. Press MEM.
3. Press SELECT until the signal light indicates the
desired own profile (-1-5 MEMORY). Press ENTER
to confirm your selection. Select RERUN (to use
the profile without adjustments) or RACE (to use
the profile as a basis for the Race function) with the
SELECT key.
4. Press ENTER to confirm your selection.
5. Press START to begin the profile.
RACE FUNCTION
To race against a previously saved speed/elevation profile
exercise, select RACE in the Own Profile menu. The
goal is to complete the profile as fast as possible.
1. Press START. The exercise begins and the belt starts
moving.
2. Adjust the speed according to your fitness level either
manually or using the PSC function.
3. The meter display shows information on profile
progress and any changes ahead, and also shows
how your performance compares to the previously
saved session: when you fall behind your previously
saved session, the display will read “YOU ARE x.xx
BEHIND”. When you are ahead of your previously
saved session, the display will read “YOU ARE x.xx
AHEAD”.
4. Once the profile has been completed, the treadmill
will automatically stop. You can save your workout in
the meter’s memory (see Memory Function).
