Training and Operating Instructions
Load intensity
Load pulse: the optimal load intensity is achieved at 65–
75 % (comp. diagram) of the individual cardiovascular
performance. This value changes depending on the age.

Scope of load
Duration of a training unit and its frequency per week:
The optimum scope of load is given, when over a longer
period 65–75 % of the individual cardiovascular perfor-
mance is achieved.
Empirical rule:
Either 10 min / training unit for daily training
or approx. 30 min / training unit for 2 - 3 times / week
or approx. 60 min / training unit for 1 - 2 times / week
You should choose the Watts power such that you are
able to stand the muscle load over a longer period.
Higher powers (Watt) should be yielded in connection
with an increased pedaling frequency. A too low peda-
ling frequency of less than 60 rpm results in a pointedly
static load of the musculature and thus to early exhausti-
on.
The load for your further stamina training should basically
be increased over the scope of load, e.g. instead of 10
minutes your training is 20 minutes or instead of 2 times
a week 3 times a week.
Warm-up.
At the beginning of each ergometer training unit, you
should for 3-5 minutes pedal with a slowly increasing
load to warm and to get your heart/circulation and your
musculature moving.
Cool-down
The same importance has the so-called "cooling down".
After each training unit (after/without recovery) you
should continue pedaling against a slight resistance for
approx. 2-3 minutes.

Glossary

Recovery
Recovery pulse measurement at the end of training. From
start and end pulse of one minute the deviation and a
fitness grade are determined. For the same training, the
improvement of this grade is a measure for increase in
fitness.

Interface
9-pole SUB-D socket (RS232/serial) for data exchange
with a PC.
Reset
Deletion of display contents and restart of display.
Programs
Training possibilities requiring manual or program-deter-
mined performances or target pulses.
Dimension
Units for display of km/h or mph, kjoule or kcal, hours
(h) and power (Watts)
Power
Current value of the mechanical (braking) power in
Watts, which the ergometer converts into heat.

Age
Percent scale
Comparison display between current power and personal
maximum power (400W)
Energy
Calculates the energy turnover of the body with an effi-
ciency of 25 % to provide the mechanical power. The
remaining 75 % does the body convert to heat.
Control
The electronic equipment controls the power or the pulse
for manually entered or default values.
Pulse
Recording of the heartbeat per minute
MaxPulse(s)
Calculated value of 220 minus years of age

Manual or program-determined pulse value, which is to

With "HI" displayed, a target pulse is too high by 11
beats. With HI blinking, the maximum pulse is exceeded.
