Program Display
The Program Display shows information to the User and the grid display area shows the course profile for the program.
Each column in the profile shows one interval (workout segment). The higher the column, the higher the resistance level. The flashing column shows your current interval.
Intensity Display
The Intensity Display shows the level of work at that moment based on the current resistance level.
Heart Rate Zone Display
The Heart Rate Zone shows which zone the current heart rate value falls into for the current User. These Heart Rate Zones can be used as a workout guide for a certain target zone (anaerobic, aerobic, or fat burn).
Consult a physician before you start an exercise program. Stop exercising if you feel pain or tightness in your chest, become short of breath, or feel faint. Contact your doctor before you use the machine again. The heart rate displayed is an approximation and should be used for reference only.
Note: If no heart rate is detected, the display will be blank.
Goal Display
The Goal Display shows the currently selected type of goal (Distance, Time or Calories), the current value to achieve the goal, and the percent completed toward the goal.
User Display
The User Display shows which User Profile is currently selected.
Achievement Display
The Achievement Display activates when a workout goal is reached or a workout milestone is surpassed from past workouts. The Console display will congratulate and inform the User of their achievement, along with a celebratory sound.
The Lower Display shows the Workout Values and can be customized for each User (Consult the "Edit User Profile" section of this manual).
Speed
The Speed display field shows the machine speed in miles per hour (mph) or kilometers per hour (km/h).
Time
The TIME display field shows the total time count of the workout, the average Time for the User Profile, or the total operational time of the machine.
Note: If a Quick Start workout is performed for more than 99 minutes and 59 seconds (99:59), the units for Time will shift to hours and minutes ( 1 hour, 40 minutes ).
Distance
The Distance display shows the distance count (miles or km) in the workout.
Note: To change the measurement units to English Imperial or metric, refer to the "Console Setup Mode" section in this manual.
Level
The LEVEL display shows the current resistance level in the workout.
RPM
The RPM display field shows the pedal revolutions per minute (RPM).
Heart Rate (Pulse)
The Heart Rate display shows the beats per minute (BPM) from the heart rate monitor. When a heart rate signal is received by the Console, the icon will flash.
Consult a physician before you start an exercise program. Stop exercising if you feel pain or tightness in your chest, become short of breath, or feel faint. Contact your doctor before you use the machine again. The heart rate displayed is an approximation and should be used for reference only.
Calories
The Calories display field shows the estimated calories that you have burned during the exercise.
Contact Heart Rate Sensors
Contact Heart Rate (CHR) sensors send your heart rate signals to the Console. The CHR sensors are the stainless steel parts of the Handlebars. To use, put your hands comfortably around the sensors. Be sure that your hands touch both the top and the bottom of the sensors. Hold firm, but not too tight or loose. Both hands must make contact with the sensors for the Console to detect a pulse. After the Console detects four stable pulse signals, your initial pulse rate will be shown.
Once the Console has your initial heart rate, do not move or shift your hands for 10 to 15 seconds. The Console will now validate the heart rate. Many factors influence the ability of the sensors to detect your heart rate signal:
If your heart rate signal ever seems erratic after validation, wipe off your hands and the sensors and try again.
Heart Rate Calculations
Your maximum heart rate usually decreases from 220 Beats Per Minute (BPM) in childhood to approximately 160 BPM by age 60. This fall in heart rate is usually linear, decreasing by approximately one BPM for each year. There is no indication that training influences the decrease in maximum heart rate. Individuals of the same age could have different maximum heart rates. It is more accurate to find this value by completing a stress test than by using an age related formula.
Your at-rest heart rate is influenced by endurance training. The typical adult has an at rest heart rate of approximately 72 BPM, whereas highly trained runners may have readings of 40 BPM or lower.
The Heart Rate table is an estimate of what Heart Rate Zone (HRZ) is effective to burn fat and improve your cardiovascular system. Physical conditions vary, therefore your individual HRZ could be several beats higher or lower than what is shown.
The most efficient procedure to burn fat during exercise is to start at a slow pace and gradually increase your intensity until your heart rate reaches between 60 – 85% of your maximum heart rate. Continue at that pace, keeping your heart rate in that target zone for over 20 minutes. The longer you maintain your target heart rate, the more fat your body will burn.
The graph is a brief guideline, describing the generally suggested target heart rates based on age. As noted above, your optimal target rate may be higher or lower. Consult your physician for your individual target heart rate zone.
Note: As with all exercises and fitness regimens, always use your best judgment when you increase your exercise time or intensity.
Wear rubber-soled athletic shoes. You will need the appropriate clothes for exercise that allow you to move freely.
Consult a physician before you start an exercise program. Stop exercising if you feel pain or tightness in your chest, become short of breath, or feel faint. Contact your doctor before you use the machine again. Use the values calculated or measured by the machine's computer for reference purposes only. The heart rate displayed on the console is an approximation and should be used for reference only.
Correct seat placement encourages exercise efficiency and comfort, while reducing the risk of injury.
Step off the bike before you adjust the seat.
Foot pedals with straps provide secure footing to the exercise bike.
Be sure toes and knees point directly forward to ensure maximum Pedal efficiency. Pedal straps can be left in position for subsequent workouts.
The Console will enter Power-Up / Idle Mode if it is plugged into a power source, any button is pushed, or if it receives a signal from the RPM sensor as a result of pedaling the machine.
If the Console does not receive any input in approximately 5 minutes, it will automatically shut off. The LCD display is off while in Sleep Mode.
Note: The Console does not have an On/Off switch.
During the first power-up, the Console should be setup with the date, time and your preferred measurement units.
The Quick Start ( Manual ) program lets you start a workout without entering any information.
During a Manual Workout, each column represents a 2 minute time period. The active column will advance across the screen every 2 minutes. If the workout lasts for more than 30 minutes, the active column is fixed on the farthest column on the right and pushes the previous columns off the display.
The Console lets you store and use 2 User profiles. The User profiles automatically record the workout results for each workout, and allow the workout data to be reviewed.
The User profile stores the following data:
Every workout is saved to a User Profile. Be sure to select the proper User Profile before starting a workout. The last User that completed a workout will be the default user.
User Profiles are assigned the default values until they are customized by editing. Be sure to edit the User Profile for more accurate calorie and heart rate information.
From the Power-Up Mode screen, push the Increase ( ) or Decrease (
) buttons to select one of the User Profiles. The Console will display the name of the User Profile and the User Profile Icon.
Push the Resistance Level Increase ( ) or Decrease (
) buttons to change the resistance level at any time in a workout program. To rapidly change the resistance level, push the desired Resistance Level Quick Button. The Console will adjust to the selected resistance level of the quick button.
These programs automate different resistance and workout levels. The Profile Programs are organized into Categories (Fun Rides, Mountains, and Challenges).
Note: Once a User views all the Categories, they will be expanded to display the Programs within each of the Categories.
The Console lets you select the Profile Program and type of Goal for your workout (Distance, Time or Calories), and set the Goal value.
The Fitness Test measures the improvements of your physical fitness level. The test compares your power output (in Watts) to your heart rate. As your fitness level improves, your power output will increase at a given heart rate.
Note: The Console must be able to read the heart rate information from the Contact Heart Rate (CHR) sensors to work correctly.
You can start the Fitness Test from the FEEDBACK category. The Fitness Test program first prompts you to select your fitness level—Beginner ( "BEG" ) or Advanced ( "ADV" ). The Console will use the Age and Weight values for the selected User Profile to calculate the Fitness Score.
Start to workout and hold the Heart Rate Sensors. When the test starts, the intensity of the workout slowly increases. This means you will work harder, and as a result, your heart rate increases. The intensity continues to increase automatically until your heart rate reaches the "Test Zone". This zone is individually computed to be near 75 percent of the maximum heart rate of your User Profile. When you reach the Test Zone, the machine holds the intensity steady for 3 minutes. This lets you reach a stable condition (where your heart rate becomes steady). At the end of the 3 minutes, the Console measures your heart rate and the power output. These numbers, along with information about your age and weight, are computed to produce a "Fitness Score".
Note: Fitness Test scores should only be compared to your previous scores and not to other User Profiles.
Compare your Fitness Scores to see your improvement.
The Heart Rate Control (HRC) programs let you set a heart rate goal for your workout. The program monitors your heart rate in beats per minute (BPM) from the Contact Heart Rate (CHR) sensors on the machine, and adjusts the workout to keep your heart rate in the selected zone.
Note: The console must be able to read the heart rate information from the CHR sensors for the HRC program to work correctly.
The Target Heart Rate programs use your age and other User information to set the Heart Rate Zone values for your workout. The console display then gives prompts for you to set up your workout:
Consult a physician before you start an exercise program. Stop exercising if you feel pain or tightness in your chest, become short of breath, or feel faint. Contact your doctor before you use the machine again. Use the values calculated or measured by the machine's computer for reference purposes only. The heart rate displayed on the console is an approximation and should be used for reference only.
The Console allows a different Workout Program to be started from an active workout.
The previous workout values are saved to the User Profile.
The Console will go into Pause Mode if the user stops pedaling and pushes PAUSE/END during a workout, or there is no RPM signal for 5 seconds (user not pedaling). The Console will cycle through a series of messages that change every 4 seconds:
During a paused workout, you can use the Increase/Decrease buttons to move through the result channels manually.
To stop the workout, push the PAUSE/END button. The Console will go into Results / Cool Down mode.
After a workout the GOAL display shows 03:00 and then starts to count down. During this Cool Down period, the Console shows the Workout Results. All workouts except Quick Start have a 3-minute Cool Down period.
The LCD display shows the Current Workout values in three channels:
Push the Left( ) or Right(
) buttons to move through the result channels manually.
During the Cool Down period, the Resistance Level will adjust to a third of the average Level of the workout. The Cool Down resistance level can be adjusted with the Resistance Increase and Decrease buttons, but the Console will not display the value.
You can push PAUSE/END to stop the Results / Cool Down period and go back to Power-Up Mode. If there is no RPM or HR signal, the Console automatically goes into Sleep Mode.
The statistics from every workout are recorded to a User Profile.
The Schwinn Dual Track Console shows the Goal Track workout Statistics on the Lower Display in three channels:
To view the GOAL TRACK statistics of a User Profile:
The BMI Measurement is a useful tool that shows the relationship between weight and height that is associated with body fat and health risk. The table below gives a general rating for the BMI score:
