Heart Rate Monitoring Devices

Pulse Hand Grips (Standard)

The 1190Sr is heart rate controlled and comes standard with stainless steel pulse hand- grips. To activate, gently grasp both handgrips to obtain a heart rate reading.

(Note: It is recommended to wear a chest strap for Heart Rate control programs, as it is more accurate. If you wear a chest strap and use hand grips at the same time for heart rate monitoring purposes, the console will take the measurement from the chest strap.)

If you are not getting a consistent reading while using the hand pulse option, we rec- ommend the following suggestions:

Make sure that the palms of the hands are touching the contact area of each hand pulse grip.

Maintain an even pressure on the grips.

Do not hold the hand pulse grips too tightly.

Chest Strap (Standard)

The 1190Sr is equipped with a built-in receiver and a chest strap for your heart rate monitoring. To get an accurate reading using these devices, you will need to be within three feet of the console, and a minimum of four feet from others using a heart rate monitoring device.

(Note: The transmitter may fluctuate erratically if you are too close to other heart rate monitoring equipment or if there are other electronics near by, such as TV, cell phone, etc...)

The receiver of the wireless ECG system is built into the console. While using heart rate control programs, the computer monitors the exact measurement of and con- trol over the activity of the heart. Heart rate is displayed while the computer con- tinually compares heart rate to the preprogrammed personal data. The computer adjusts the pedal resistance level to maintain heart rate at the optimum setting.

How to Wear Your Sensor/ Transmitter

1.Moisten the conductive electrode strips located next to the buckles with water.

2.Buckle one end of the chest strap onto the transmitter.

3.Adjust the band length so that the fit is snug against your skin.
