WIRELESS CHESTBELT PULSE SENSOR

Your pulse rate can also be measured by a chestbelt type

wireless pulse sensor.

• In place of the earlobe pulse sensor, the EC-5000 can also receive your pulse

signal transmitted from a particular type of wireless chestbelt sensor. The

"Wireless Pulse Sensor Kit" (an optional item) is recommended for the cus-

tomers who may feel inconvenience in picking up the pulse rate from the

earlobe.

• When your pulse rate is monitored through the wireless chestbelt sensor, the

pulse symbol on the graph screen is converted to the one shown in the draw-

ing.

Attaching the chestbelt sensor

• The chestbelt sensor should be put around your chest with two elec-

trodes in contact with your body at the center.

• For further information, please refer to the Manual enclosed in the

"Wireless Heart Rate Sensor Kit" (an optional item).

Function of wireless chestbelt sensor

• The wireless chestbelt sensor is a simplified and compact electrocardiograph

as widely used in hospitals on the same principle. At hospitals, electrodes are

attached to several parts of the body, and a cardiogram is determined on the

basis of potential differences among those electrodes. The chestbelt sensor

picks up the heart rate more simply through potential difference between two

electrodes built-in there and in contact with the body.

• The pulse data are transmitted to the control unit by radio wave, thus elimi-

nating inconveniences of handling the sensor cable and offering concentrated

intense training.

• The "Wireless Heart Rate Sensor Kit" consists of a chestbelt sensor

unit (transmitter) and a receiving circuitry to be mounted inside of

the control unit.
