2.2DISPLAY CONSOLE DESCRIPTIONS

AWORKOUT PROFILE window (9000HR only): This window displays shapes, made of columns of lights, that represent the incline and levels of intensity for a workout-in-progress. The height of the column furthest to the left is proportional to the current level of incline and intensity. During a FAT BURN* or CARDIO* workout, which requires the use the Lifepulse system sensors or the Polar heart rate chest strap, the WORKOUT PROFILE window displays a heart shape to request the user's heart rate signal. If the console does not detect a signal, the MESSAGE CENTER displays the prompt, "NEED HEART RATE - PLACE HANDS ON SENSORS OR USE TELEMETRY STRAP". If the console does not receive the signal within three minutes, the workout automatically is converted to a MANUAL program.

*These workouts are available on the 9000HR model only.

BMESSAGE CENTER (9000HR only): This window displays step-by-step instructions for set- ting up a workout. During a workout, it displays statistics about the progress of the workout:

Calories: the total number of calories burned since beginning the workout.

Time: the number of minutes elapsed since beginning the workout.

Distance: the total distance traveled.

Incline: the selected incline level of the workout.

Heart Rate: the detected heart rate if the user is grasping the Lifepulse system sensors or wearing the Polar heart rate chest strap.

Speed: the user's speed.

Calories per Hour: the rate of calories burned per hour.

Pace: the rate of minutes per mile or kilometer.

Watts: effort level in Watts. The Watt is a unit of power output or the expression of the mechanical rate of work.

Mets: effort level in Mets. The Met is an expression of the rate of work for the human body, or a metabolic equivalent; one Met is approximately equal to the metabolism of a person at rest.

Distance Climbed: a calculation of feet or meters based on the speed and incline.

BDATA DISPLAY (8500 only): During a workout, these three windows display statistics about the progress of the workout:

Time: the number of minutes elapsed since beginning the workout.

Distance: the total distance traveled.

Calories: the total number of calories burned since beginning the workout.

Incline: the selected incline level of the workout.

Speed: the user's speed.

Heart Rate: the detected heart rate if the user is wearing the Polar heart rate chest strap.

After a new workout has been underway for 12 seconds, the left DATA DISPLAY window flashes a default weight value of 150 pounds (68 kg), indicating that the computer is requesting the user’s weight to calculate the number of calories burned. Use the WEIGHT ARROW keys to enter the correct weight. If no weight is entered, the computer uses the default value to calculate calories burned.

Defined by the American College of Sports Medicine's "Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription" as equal to 220 minus an individual’s age.

* Target Heart Rate (THR) is a percentage of the theoretical maximum. For example, a 40-year-old user's THR for the FAT BURN workout is 117. This workout targets 65 percent of the maximum, so the equation would be (220-40)*.65=117.
