Operation of Monitor
When attaching the battery to your transmitter and depressing the on/off switch, the red light on the front
surface of the transmitter should light up indicating that the battery is good.
On/Off Switch
Located on the top of the Transmitter is the on/off switch. Prior to monitoring the client’s heart rate,
depress the switch to the ‘on’ position. The light will flash in time with the client’s heart rate.
Please note that if either of the two wires which run from the battery to the
Heart Rate Transmitter break, you will be responsible for their repair, as this is
not covered by the warranty. If it is hard to detach the battery, use a flat object
(such as a dull knife) to act like a wedge between the metal battery terminal
and the lar
g
e metal batter
y
connector.
When finished with the device, turn the on/off switch to the off position in orde
r
to preserve the life of the battery.
The rechargeable batteries need to be charged for a minimum of 12 hours
before use. The batteries are not charged when you first receive your system.
After charging them they will be good for up to 4 hours of testing in the Heart
Rate Monitor. If you are having difficulties capturing the client’s heart rate, try to
use a regular 9-volt battery. It is recommended you replace your rechargeable
batteries every year.
