When you start setting exercise preferences, you first select whether you
want to pre-programm an exercise profile or a BasicSet or exercise with the
BasicUse option.
BasicUse (E0)
BasicUse is a simple mode for exercising. You do not have to do any settings
before exercising with this Exercise mode. There are no heart rate limits in
use in this mode. While exercising, you can see the following optional values
on the display:
• current heart rate or average heart rate of the exercise
• stopwatch
• time of day
Exercise settings
For getting the most of your relaxation rate measure your baseline
relaxation rate:
• in that situation which best represents the time you will be using the
relaxation rate.
• always in the same way (e.g., laying down), place and time.
Update the baseline value once a month or whenever you want to refer to
your value in different situations.
To continue your settings, press the stop button or to return to the Time of
day display, press and hold the stop button.
• split and lap times
• relaxation rate
Additionally, you can follow calories of your exercise session and percentage
of your maximum heart rate, if you have set all the user information and
turned the OwnCal calculator on.
Exercise profile (E1-E7)
Exercise profile will guide you through the exercise with up to six pre-
programmable phases. You can name the exercise profiles, e.g. , by the
exercise type. Profiles can be used for versatile exercises where different
phases are successive, e.g., in interval training.
During exercise, you can see the same optional values as in the BasicUse
mode. Heart rate limits and up to 30 interval and recovery periods can be set
for each phase.
BasicSet (E8)
BasicSet is a pre-programmable exercise set, but simpler than an exercise
profile. There are no phases available although three timers and a recovery
period help you split up the exercise session. The three adjustable heart rate
limits allow you to monitor your workouts, securing the correct intensity.
During exercise, you can see the same optional values as in the BasicUse
mode.
