Heartlogic.intelligence - Octane Fitness Q45 Operation Manual

H e a r t l o g i c
The Q45e and Q45ce are equipped with HeartLogic–the latest in heart rate control technology. HeartLogic
Intelligence is a sophisticated yet easy to use technology that brings you the most accurate and effective workout
possible. It all begins with the wireless chest strap and, on the Q45ce, the digital contact heart rate grip sensors.
There are five different heart rate programs—Fat Burn, Cardio, Heart Rate Interval, Heart Rate Hill and Heart Rate
Speed Interval—to keep your workouts fun and interesting. The Now-Zone
your current heart rate no matter what program you're in - all at the push of a button. To top it all off, the monitor
displays your time-in-zone, current heart rate, heart rate %, and target heart rate so you know exactly where you
are and where you should be.

The wireless chest
transmits your heart rate to the
electronics console at a distance
of up to three feet. Adjust the length
of the elastic strap and fasten it to the
transmitter around your torso, underneath
your shirt. Place the strap just below your
chest. Make sure the Octane Fitness
logo is away from you and right side up.
It may help to moisten the electrodes on
the back of the transmitter with a small
amount of water for better contact with the skin. The electrodes are the ribbed
portion on the back side of the transmitter that sits against your skin. Make sure
the strap fits snugly but doesn't restrict breathing.
The digital contact heart rate sensors are located on the stationary handlebars of
the Q45ce. These sensors provide an easy and accurate way to track your heart
rate for a great workout. For the most accurate heart rate reading possible, grasp
each contact heart rate grip sensor so the contact sensor portion of the grip rests
in the palm of your hand. Grip the contact sensors firmly, and keep your hands
steady and in place.
The Q45e and Q45ce provide five different heart rate-controlled programs
(P6-P10) to offer you more variety to suit your personal needs. We recommend
that you try different programs to determine your favorite. For an explanation of
all programs, go to page 16.
Now-Zone is a great feature that instantly puts you into a heart rate-controlled
program using your current heart rate as the target. Press the button a second
time to exit the heart rate-controlled program and enter a manual program.
Now-Zone can be activated while in any program at any time as long as you are
wearing your wireless transmitter or grasping the contact heart rate sensors.
