Pitch Sound Button Turns on or off the pitch sound. When the pitch sound is on, symbol appears on the LCD. Printer Button Turns on or off the printer function. [. . . ] · After printing out the conditions the LCD changes as in the drawing. · The word "READY" will be displayed on LCD panel. · After one minute has elapsed, the buzzer sounds and the pitch sound begins. Then start pedaling according to the pitch sound. Note: You can cancel the pitch sound by pressing button. If the symbol is on the LCD, the pitch the sound is ON, and if not pitch sound is OFF. Pressing the pitch sound button toggles ON/OFF. · The initial workload (pedal torque) is indicated in blinking dot in the graphic section of the LCD. One dot along the horizontal axis indicates 30 seconds, and one along the vertical axis 0. 5 kg·m. At every 30 seconds, the row of dots will increase by one towards the right of the graphic display, with the last row blinking. · At the 4th and 7th minutes the pedal torque will increase depending on your pulse rate at that time. The increased torque of 2nd and 3rd stages will be indicated in dots time after time in the graphic part.

These levels are relative evaluations that compare your maximum oxygen uptake (MOU), estimated by the aerobic power measurement program, with the values of other people of the same age and sex (Physical Fitness Level Test Table). · ErgociserTM EC-3700 stores the following physical fitness level test table, which can be selected by the selector switch on the back panel of the control unit. (See page 8) Physical Fitness Level Test Table by Maximum Oxygen Uptake (MOU) 5: Excellent 4: Good 3: Average 2: Fair 1: Poor (ml/kg min) 60 54 48 42 Test Protocol · In the "Aerobic power measurement" program of the EC-3700, the workload (pedal resistance: torque) for the subsequent stage is determined depending on your pulse rate at the previous stage. The workload (pedal resistance: torque) will be increased along one of the routes illustrated below, depending on your pulse rate TMduring the program. · The pulse rates specified below represent the protocol for a person of 20 years. [. . . ] · Do not wipe the main unit with organic solvents such as thinner, kerosine, gasoline and alcohol. When dirty, wipe the unit with a cloth soaked in a neutral detergent, then wipe well with a dry cloth. · Do not place the EC-3700 in direct sun light. Isn't the data card reversed? Didn't you insert the card too quickly?Didn't you specify two or more programs, or open unnecessary holes? [. . . ]
