Placing the WearLink belt and transmitter | Polar CS600X specification

6.Placing the WearLink belt and transmitter

Place the WearLink belt as indicated, with the transmitter pocket on the left side of the horse. By doing so, you ensure the electrodes of the belt are in the right position.

Clip the transmitter to its contact points, as indi- cated.

Then close the pocket by using the velcro straps.

This pocket protects your transmitter from shocks and scratches and prevent it from falling off the belt.

The range of the WearLink transmitter is over 10m, therefore you can follow your horse’s heart rate when working with a leash.

Using contact gel on the electrodes of the WearLink belt is highly recommended. It ensures a better detection of the horse’s heart rate.

The hypo-allergenic and chloride-free electrode gels ensure a better conductivity. Non-thinning formula will not break down or irritate after lengthy contact.

Here is an example of con- ductive gel recommended by the biggest electrodes manu- facturers, to be used on multifunctional electrodes.

You are now ready to start. Starting from the time display, press OK twice.

The stopwatch starts, a heart symbol blinks and the horse’s heart rate is displayed in the bottom of the screen. From now on, the CS600X is recording your exercise.

Each display shows 3 rows of data and is named after the bottom row.

To check the data you are most interested in, change display by pressing UP or DOWN. (6 differ- ent displays are set by default but can be custom- ized – see user manual)

You can also zoom on a data to make it larger on the display.

Press and hold UP for 2 seconds to zoom in the data of the top row, or DOWN for 2 seconds to zoom in the data of the bottom row. Press and hold the same button for 2 seconds to zoom out.

To stop the exercise, press STOP twice. The CS600X returns to time display.

All the data has been recorded and can be re- trieved in the file. To access the file, press UP once from time display and then validate by pressing OK.
