TARGET HEART RATE PROGRAM
Diamondback’s Target Heart Rate program can also described as a heart rate control program. Heart rate control programs automatically increase and decrease the load during the workout to stay within four (4) BPM (Beats‐per‐ minute) of the selected target.
For example, if the heart rate target is 132 BPM, and the user’s pulse begins to fall, the 500Er computer will slowly increase the load. Eventually, the amount of work being performed by the user will increase and so will the heart rate. Conversely, if the user’s heart rate climbs above the target zone, the load will be reduced, ultimately decreasing the user’s heart rate.
The advantages of heart rate control programs are the simplicity and accuracy by which the ideal cardio‐vascular training zone is maintained thereby offering a very efficient workout.
For the Target Heart Rate programs to operate, the computer must receive a heart rate signal from the touch heart rate sensors. If no signal is detected, the Pulse field will display ”‐ ‐ ‐“ and the heart symbol will not be lit.
