Using chestbelt heart rate sensor

Wireless chestbelt sensor picks up your heart rate

In place of the earlobe pulse sensor, the EC-1600 can also receive your pulse signal transmitted from a particular type of wireless chestbelt sensor. The "Wireless Pulse Sensor Kit" (an optional item) is recommended for the customers who may feel inconvenience in picking up the pulse rate from the earlobe.

Function of wireless chestbelt sensor

The wireless chestbelt sensor is a simplified and compact electrocar- diograph as widely used in hospitals on the same principle. At hospi- tals, electrodes are attached to several parts of the body, and a cardio- gram is determined on the basis of potential differences among those electrodes. The chestbelt sensor picks up the heart rate more simply through potential difference between two electrodes built-in there and in contact with the body.

The pulse data are transmitted to the control unit by radio wave, thus eliminating inconveniences of handling the sensor cable and offering concentrated intense training.

The "Wireless Heart Rate Sensor Kit" consists of a chestbelt sensor unit (transmitter) and a receiving circuitry to be mounted inside of the control unit.

Attaching the chestbelt sensor

The chestbelt sensor should be put around your chest with two elec- trodes in contact with your body at the center.

For further information, please refer to the Manual enclosed in the "Wireless Heart Rate Sensor Kit" (an optional item).

Chestbelt heart rate sensor adapted in

position

Direct contact to lower chest skin is ideal in use.
