Programming the Target Heart Rate Limits

The E600 allows you to program an ideal heart rate zone within
which your students can exercise. If a student goes above the
upper limit or below the lower limit, the student will be alerted
in two ways: the receiver will begin beeping and the heart rate
display will flash.
1. From Time of Day display, press the upper right button two
times. Your display will read,"OPTIONS".
2. Enter the Options mode by pressing the red button two times.
Your display will read, "Limits", with two rows of numbers
beneath it. These are the upper and lower limits of the zone.
3. Press the red button one time.
The upper limit will begin to flash.
4. Press the upper right button to increase the value of this
number or press the lower right button to decrease it.
5. Once you have reached the number you want, press the red
button once to lock it in. The lower number will now begin
to flash.
6. Press the upper right button to increase the value of this
number or press the lower right button to decrease it.
7. Once you have reached the number you want, press the red
button once to lock it in.
8. At this point you can either return to the Time of Day display
by holding down the blue button, or you can begin to set the
recovery calculation by pressing the upper right button. If this
is your choice, begin with step 3 of the section on programming
the recovery calculation, below.
Note: You can also deactivate the heart rate target zone.
To do this, press and hold the upper left button when you are
in the Limits display. The display will read, "OFF". The limits
are now deactivated. If OFF is flashing, lock it in by pressing the
red button. At this point, continue from step 8.
To reactivate the limits, enter the limits setting mode as
described in steps 1-2. Press and hold the upper right button
and the limits will appear.
