With the ▲ ♥ keys you can select the desired protocol (in this example name1) to edit. Select
NEW to program a new exercise protocol and give the protocol a useful name maximal 10
characters with the▲ ♥ keys. The allowed characters for the name are: ’0∆..∆9∆,∆a∆..∆z∆,
and ∆ ∆. Move the cursor with the confirmation button ( ) OK to the 10
th
position and the
program screen will appear:
On top the protocol name is mentioned. The second line will give you information about the
status of the programmed momentary workload (P) and time (t). The third line is the actual
program line. The stage number with the type of stage is mentioned, followed by the
programmable parameters (workload in the above example) and time. Those parameters are
displayed as ♪ Power (dP) and ♪ time (dt). ♪ P is the change in power expressed in watts. ♪ t
is the change in time expressed in seconds. The underlined character is the item which can be
changed, in the example mentioned above: S. Pressing the ▲ ♥ keys give you the ability to
toggle between the possibilities for programming a stage in a protocol: S, T, L, H, P and
Recovery.
S= step
the workload can be adjusted + or º and the duration of this hyperbolic
stage can be determined; the load is independent of the RPM
T= torque fixed torque: the torque in Nm can be adjusted with certain duration
L= linear the workload is coupled with RPM with constant π as the adjustable
parameter for the desired duration; load P = π * N
2
[W] goes up with
square of cadence.
H= heart rate the workload is regulated as a function of the adjustable heart rate for a
certain duration in this heart rate controlled step.
P= proportional the workload is increased linear as a function of time (ramp protocol). It
will take the total duration time to reach the programmed workload;
R = Repeat repeat steps (until max. workload): you have to enter the workload step and
the duration of the step only once.
Recovery the recovery stage is the last stage of a protocol with a fixed workload and
an unlimited duration (only 1 recovery stage in 1 protocol)
After the confirmation of the workload during the recovery stage the menu PROGRAM BPM
will appear. Toggle with the ▲ ♥ keys for the measurement possibilities:
No BPM
no BPM module available, select this option when the BPM is not installed, or
no automatic blood pressure measurement during this protocol;
Repeat allows you to program a repeat time in minutes during the exercise stages:
