Combination timer 1+2:

The combination of timer 1+2 can be set optimally for interval training: Timer 1 = active phase, timer 2 = rest phase. When timer 1 elapses a single beep sounds, when timer 2 elapses a double beep sounds. For timer 1+2 you can set the number of repeats. In this case time 1+2 runs until all repeats have elapsed or the measurement is interrupted by ∫..

IMPORTANT: During timer operation the residence periods of the pulse frequency in the selected training ranges is recorded (compare 13.1) step 1 Preparing the recording

-Set the training ranges automatically chapter 7.1, or manually chapter 7.2

-Select training program limit 1, limit 2, limit 3, chapter 7.3

-In the TIMER SETTINGS setting menu select the desired timer

step 2 Beginning of the recording:

 

∫

Start the recording

4sec.

≈

Switch on/switch off the acoustic pulse signal

step 3 End/interruption of the recording:

AUTOMATIC depending on timer selection at the end of the respective timer or at the end of all selected repeats with the combination function timer 1+2

∫Manual interruption = stop recording step 4 Display of the values (even during recording):

≈Display data via the LIMIT LO HI pulse menu (display automatically shows the times for the three ranges in %)

-Time above the high limit

-Time between the limit values

-Time under the low limit

step 5 Deleting recorded data 4sec. ∫

Note: All bicycle altitude and pulse function can also be called up during timer operation via the ç √ ¥ ≈ buttons.

TIP: At the end of the training unit measure the recovery time or the recovery pulse to determine your training status, see chapter 7.4. Recovery time and recovery pulse.

14.3. TRAINING WITH THE COUNTDOWN TIMER:

The countdown timer is a programmable timer with reverse counting. This is particularly well-suited for use in time trials. At the end of the COUNTDOWN time there is a single beep.

IMPORTANT: During countdown operation the residence periods of the pulse frequency in the selected training ranges are recorded (compare 13.1)

step 1 Preparing the recording:

-Set the training ranges automatically chapter 7.1, or manually chapter 7.2

-Select training program limit 1, limit 2, limit 3, chapter 7.3

-In the setting menu TIMER SETTINGS select AND set the countdown timer, chapter 13.1 and following.
