Remarks On Telemetric Measurement; Telemetric Heart Rate Measurement - Batavus CR5 Manual Del Usuario

a) Using the handgrip heart rate sensors
b) Using an ear clip with cable
c) Using a chest strap (wireless, telemetric),
optional
The chest strap and receiver/adapter are available as
optional extras.
Do not use more than one measuring system at the
same time.
PULSE MEASUREMENt WItH HANDGRIP
SENSORS
Hand pulse is measured using the sensors located
on the handlebars. The sensors measure electric
impulses, which are formed when the person's
heart is beating. Measurement is started by
touching both handlebar sensors simultaneously.
To ensure reliable pulse measurement, skin must
be slightly moist and skin contact with the sensors
must be continuous. If skin is too dry or too wet,
the hand pulse measurement operation is less
reliable. Try to keep your upper body and palms
relaxed and still.
EAR PULSE MEASUREMENt
1. Fit the ear sensor wire plug into the connecting
point of the meter.
2. Attach the ear sensor to the earlobe.
If the sensor does not immediately start measuring
your pulse or if the earlobe is cold, rub the
earlobe with the fingers to speed up circulation.
Physiological differences between different people
may also cause disturbances in pulse measurement.
In these cases, try measuring on the inside
surface of the ear or on the tip of your finger. If
measuring disturbances appear while training,
test the functioning of the sensor while stationary.
Strong, unintentional swaying while training
may also disturb measurement. If pulse values
rise above 150 beats/min., earlobe measurement
may be affected by the speeding up of circulation.
Sometimes a strong light source, e.g. a fluorescent
tube, in the immediate vicinity of the user may
cause disturbances in pulse measurement. In this
case, test the functioning of the sensor by turning
the ear sensor the other way round on the earlobe.
Pulse reading can also be affected, if the battery
power of the meter is too low. Clean the ear sensor
after use with a damp cloth.

tELEMEtRIC HEARt RAtE MEASUREMENt

Your pulse can be measured wirelessly using the
Batavus Pro Check pulse transmitter and receiver.

NOTE! If you are fitted with a pacemaker, please
consult a physician before using a wireless heart
rate monitor.
If you want to measure your heart rate this way
during your workout, moisten the grooved
electrodes on the transmitter belt with water.
Fasten the transmitter just below the chest with the
elastic belt, firmly enough so that the electrodes
remain in contact with the skin while training, but
not so tight that normal breathing is prevented.
If you wear the transmitter and belt over a light
shirt, moisten the shirt slightly at the points where
the electrodes touch the shirt. The transmitter
automatically transmits the heart-rate reading to
the meter up to a distance of about 1 meter. The
heart-rate value is displayed in the meter. Follow
your heart rate during the training.

REMARKS ON tELEMEtRIC MEASUREMENt

If the electrode surfaces are not moist, the heart
rate reading will not appear on the display. If the
electrodes are dry, they must be moistened again.
Allow the electrodes to warm up properly to
ensure accurate heart-rate measurement. If there
are several telemetric heart rate measurement
equipments next to each other, the distance
between them should be at least 1,5 m. Similarly, if
there is only one receiver and several transmitters
in use, only one person with a transmitter should
be within transmission range. The transmitter is
switched to an active state only when it is being
used for measurement. Sweat and other moisture
can, however, keep the transmitter in an active state
and waste battery energy. Therefore it is important
to dry the electrodes carefully after use.
When selecting training attire, please note
that some fibers used in clothes (e.g. polyester,
polyamide) create static electricity, which may
prevent reliable heart rate measurement. Please
note that a mobile phone, television and other
electrical appliances form an electro-magnetic field
around them, which will cause problems in heart
rate measurement.
