COMPUTER OPERATION
PROGRAM 8 – HEART RATE CONTROL
If P8 is selected, the TIME LED window shows the factory
setting value of “60:00” and is blinking. Press the SPEED
UP/DOWN buttons to adjust the workout time. Every
adjustable section equals 3 minutes. Press the
STOP/ENTER button to save the setting then the TARGET
HEART RATE displays in the PULSE LED window and is
blinking. The factory TARGET HEART RATE setting is
based on 85% of the maximum user heart rate. The
maximum user heart rate is calculated using the
formula: 220 minus the user age. As an example, for age
35 the maximum user heart rate should be 185 and 85%
of the maximum user heart rate will be 157. Press the
SPEED UP/DOWN buttons to adjust the TARGET HEART
RATE according to your own physical condition or your
doctor’s instruction then press the STOP/ENTER buttons to
save the setting.
Press the START button to start the three minute WARM UP program. Speed starts from 2.0 mph /3.2 km/h and the
INCLINE LEVEL starts from level 0. Keep your hand on the hand pulse grips all the time during this workout in order to
monitor your pulse correctly. During the program, if the heart rate monitor fails to sense the user’s pulse you will see “P”
blinking in the PULSE LED window. If the heart rate monitor senses the pulse properly the PULSE DOT LED blinks and the
correct pulse readout shows on the PULSE LED window. The computer will sense the user’s pulse every 30 seconds.
During the warm up program you can press the STOP/ENTER button to pause or stop the program or press the START
button to re-start the program. Other buttons will not react during this warm up process.
During the warm up program, if the heart rate monitor fails to sense the user’s pulse (the PULSE LED will display a blinking
“P”) the computer will not change the speed. If the heart rate monitor senses the user’s pulse properly but the actual user’s
pulse does not reach 65% of the max. heart rate (( 220-age) x 65%) then the speed will increase by 0.5 mph /0.8 km/h every
30 seconds. If the actual pulse reaches 65% of the max. heart rate the speed will remain unchanged. If the actual pulse
remains at 65% of the max. heart rate for more than one minute the speed will be maintained until the warm up program is
finished.
If the actual user’s pulse fails to reach 65% of the max. heart rate within the first 3 minutes of the warm up program, the
computer will continue a second 3 minute warm up program. All workout information continues to count up and the timer
counts down from 3:00. During the second 3 minute warm up the computer will change the incline level instead of the speed.
If the heart rate monitor fails to sense the user’s pulse (the PULSE LED will display a blinking “P”) the computer will not
change the incline level. If heart rate monitor senses the user’s pulse properly but the actual user’s pulse does not reach
65% of the max. heart rate (( 220-age) x 65%) then the incline level will be increased by 1 level every 30 seconds. If the
actual pulse reaches 65% of the max. heart rate the incline level will remain unchanged. If the actual pulse remains at 65%
of the max. heart rate for more than one minute the speed will be maintained until the warm up program is finished.
If the actual user’s pulse fails to reach 65% of the max. heart rate within the second 3 minute warm up, the computer will
continue a third 3 minute warm up program. All workout information continues to count up and the timer counts down from
3:00. During the third 3 minute warm up both speed and incline remain unchanged regardless the actual pulse. If the time
counts down to 0 and 65% of the max. heart rate still cannot be achieved then the TIME LED will show “FAIL” and the
program will stop and return to POWER ON status.
After the warm up program is completed, if the actual pulse reaches 65% of the max. heart rate, the computer will enter the
HEART RATE CONTROL program. TIME counts down from the previous setting. Distance and Calories continue to count
up from the warm up program. During the HEART RATE CONTROL program the heart rate monitor will sense the actual
user’s pulse every 30 seconds. If the actual user’s pulse does not reach 85% of the max. heart rate then the incline level will
be increased by 1 level every 30 seconds. If the actual user’s pulse reaches 85% of the max. heart rate then the treadmill
performance will be remain unchanged. If the actual user’s pulse is greater than 85% of the max. heart rate, the incline level
will be reduced by 1 level. Speed will remain unchanged until the incline level increases up to 15% or down to 0%. If the
incline level is up to 15% and 85% of the max. heart rate still cannot be reached then the speed will be increased by 0.5 mph
/0.8 km/h every 30 seconds. If the incline level decreases down to 0% and the actual user’s pulse is still greater than 85% of
the max. heart rate then the speed will be decreased by 0.5 mph /0.8 km/h every 30 seconds.
If the actual user’s pulse remains above 85% of the max. heart rate for more than 3 minutes the HEART RATE CONTROL
program will shut down and enter a one minute COOL DOWN program.
