11. APPENDIX 11.1. TECHNICAL NOTES ON CARDIO RECEIVERS Technogym utilizes Polar technology for measuring the heart rate frequency of the person training on the machine. The Polar system consists of: • a transmitter, worn by the person training on the machine, which uses 2 electrodes to detect the electrical activity of the heart and transmits the measured heart rate by sending an electromagnetic signal at a frequency of 5 KHz.
STEP 600 XTPRO: Service & Maintenance Manual - rev. 1.1 There are 3 types of problems which can typically occur on the heart rate signal: • interference caused by disturbances from sources of electromagnetic noise.

Electromagnetic interference can take different forms: on the one hand, the receiver may detect and hence generate spurious transients or periodic noise pulse, or on the other hand the receiver may become saturated.
STEP 600 XTPRO: Service & Maintenance Manual - rev. 1.1 Sensitivity is reduced by soldering a resistor in parallel with the coil. Normally, the receiver already has a 15 KOhm resistor mounted in parallel with the coil, however it is advisable to check for its presence.
