Complaint: Heart Rate inaccurate
Due to minor inaccuracies in signal and the way different programs calculate the
Heart Rate, there may be as much as 6BPM difference between the HR shown
on the display, on a third-party HR watch, and a manual counting of the HR. A
similar difference may be found between using the Contact HR grips and using a
Chest Strap.
Complaint: Heart Rate Program varies too much
Program is designed to maintain actual HR to within 5bpm of target HR . Note
that it is very difficult to create a program that will not overshoot the HR and to
determine how much and how quickly to vary the resistance in response to HR
changes.

• Press the “+” or “-“button until the LCD says “FIRMWARE VER.” The
version should automatically display in the large screen.

• Press the “BACK” button several times to exit.
• Software/Firmware is a translation issue between Chinese/English with
the Chinese programmer.
