In this program, the large LED dot matrix window displays your heart rate during
exercise.The middle row represents your target heart rate (THR) and the other rows
equal +/-2 heart beats. If you are working out beneath your THR, the LEDs below
the middle row will illuminate.If you are over, the LEDs above the middle row will
illuminate.Your current heart rate is represented by the flashing column and the
window will refresh every 5 seconds.
Notes: There is a 4-minute warm-up built into this program at level 1 resistance.
After 4 minutes the resistance will automatically adjust to bring your heart rate within
5 beats of the target number you selected at the beginning of the program. If there is
no heart rate detected, the unit will not change resistance levels up or down. If your
heart rate is 25 beats over your target zone the program will shut down.
