N MESSAGE CENTER: This window displays step-by-step instructions for setting up a workout. During a
workout, it displays statistics about the progress of the workout:
?
Level: the programmed intensity level. It is displayed continuously unless the heart rate is being measured,
in which case, Heart Rate is displayed.
?
Heart Rate: the detected heart rate if the user is wearing the chest strap or grasping the Lifepulse sensors.
If the heart rate is not being measured during a workout, then Level is displayed instead.
?
Distance: the total distance traveled.
?
RPM (Revolutions Per Minute): the pedaling speed or rate.
?
Calories: the number of calories burned since the beginning of the workout, alternates with Time.
?
Time: the time elapsed since the beginning of the workout; alternates with Calories.
If programmed to do so, the MESSAGE CENTER briefly displays any or all of these three values each time
the intensity level changes during the workout:
?
Calories per Hour: the rate of calories burned per hour.
?
Watts: effort level in Watts. The Watt is a unit of power output or the expression of the mechanical rate of
work.
?
METs: effort level in METs. The MET is an expression of the rate of work for the human body at rest, or a
metabolic equivalent; one MET is approximately equal to the metabolism of a person at rest.
See Chapter 5, titled Internal Settings for information about enabling the MESSAGE CENTER to display these
additional settings.
