4.2 Pulse-rate zones
Using the +/- buttons, you can select 2 zones. The age input serves for
calculating these zones. This is shown in the PULSE display (5).
1. Fat consumption [Fa 65%] (Fig. 13)
Formula: (220 - age) x 0,65
2. Fitness zone [Fi 75%] (Fig. 14)
Formula: (220 - age) x 0,75
Fig. 13
Pulse zone: fat combustion with 65 %
Function
When the pulse zone is entered and the maximum pulse set, pulse-zone moni-
toring is activated. If the number of strokes is 11 less than the set exercising
pulse, the letters "LO" appear. When the set pulse is exceeded by 11
strokes, the symbol "HI" appears. The "LO" monitoring is activated when
the set pulse rate is reached for the first time during rowing. If the number
of strokes declines to zero, the "LO" function is again activated when the
set pulse rate is reached. "HI" monitoring is always active.
The figure which is shown with the % symbol is the relation of the current
pulse rate to the maximum pulse rate.
4.3 Pulse-rate monitoring (independent of age)
This can be set from 40 - 180 using the +/- buttons.
Fig. 15
No entry "OFF"
Function
The "HI" and "LO" display is described in 4.2.
The percentage pulse display is not available.
4.4 Concluding input
After entering the last setting, press the Set button. All the set figures
(apart from pulse-rate and frequency) are now displayed (fig. 17).
If you switch the pulse-rate monitoring off, the OFF display is shown and
all pulse-rate monitoring functions are deactivated and the general
display shows "Time" (fig. 18)
Fig. 17
No entry "OFF" (See fig. 15)
Function
Start rowing. All the settings (apart from pulse limit) count downwards. When
zero is reached, they flash for a few seconds and then start counting from
the set value upwards.
If your pulse rate rises above the specified limit, the HI symbole flashes as
a warning.

5.0 Display during exercising
When you start your exercising session, the automatic display change
SCAN starts at five-second intervals (symbol b in the display). You can switch
it off with the Set button. Using the +/- button, you can switch forward to
the next display section or back to the last one. If you have set the stroke
frequency (e) in the display, it bleeps at the set rhythm to help you to
maintain the right frequency.
6.0 Display before and after exercising and
during interruptions
The electronics are able to detect interruptions in rowing. The automatic display
change stops. The symbol SCAN disappears. Under Frequency (4) and Pulse
Rate (5) the average figure is indicated with the average symbol (f).
If you resume exercising within 4 minutes, the display changes to Room
Temperature (fig. 1). The distance is added to the total number of kilometres.
All other figures are not stored.
Note
Press the +/- button to move to the next or the previous display section.
Press the Set button to return to the Input mode. All previous exercising data
are deleted. Settings are not deleted.
7.0 Display on resumption of training
When you resume exercising, the figures continue to count.
8.0 Measurement of recovery pulse
The training computer features a recovery-pulse function. This allows you to
measure your pulse rate during the recovery period following exercising. When
you finish exercising, press the recovery-pulse button. The current pulse
figure is accepted under Time (1) (fig. 19). The computer then measures your
pulse rate for 59 seconds counting downwards (fig. 19). Following this, the
current pulse rate is accepted under Strokes (2). Under Kilojoules (3), the dif-
ference in the pulse figures during the downward count appears and a fitness
mark (F) is displayed (fig. 20). The calculation process is explained in section
9.0 General Notes. If the pulse measurement is interrupted, the letter (P) appears
instead of a figure. To return to the current training display, press the Recover
button. The current pulse is always displayed under Pulse (5).
