HeartLogic Intelligence (xR6e/xR6ce)
The xR6e and xR6ce are equipped with HeartLogic Intelligence—Octane’s
own heart rate control technology. HeartLogic Intelligence is a sophisticated
yet easy to use technology that brings you the most accurate and effective
workout possible. It all begins with the wireless chest strap and, on the
xR6ce, the digital contact heart rate grip sensors. There are four different
heart rate programs—Fat Burn, Cardio, Heart Rate Interval, and Heart
Rate Custom Interval —to keep your workouts fun and interesting. The
Now-Zone
™
button lets you instantly lock into your current heart rate no
matter what program you’re in—all at the push of a button. To top it all
off, the console displays your time-in-zone, current heart rate, heart rate
%, and target heart rate so you know exactly where you are and where
you should be.
Using your wireless
chest strap
The wireless chest strap transmits your heart rate to the electronics console at a
distance of up to three feet. Adjust the length of the elastic strap and fasten it to the
transmitter around your torso, underneath your shirt. Place the strap just below your
chest. Make sure the Octane Fitness logo is away from you and right side up. It may
help to moisten the electrodes on the back of the transmitter with a small amount
of water for better contact with the skin. (The electrodes are the ribbed portion on
the back side of the transmitter that sits against your skin.) Make sure the strap fits
snugly but doesn’t restrict breathing.
Using the contact
heart rate sensors
(xR6ce only)
The digital contact heart rate sensors are located on the stationary handlebars of
the xR6ce. These sensors provide an easy and accurate way to track your heart rate
for a great workout. For the most accurate heart rate reading possible, wrap your
hands around each contact heart rate grip so that the palm of your hand and your
fingers make contact with the metal sensors on the top and bottom of each grip.
Grasp firmly, and keep your hands steady and in place.
Heart rate controlled
programs
The xR6e and xR6ce provide four different heart rate controlled programs to offer
you more variety to suit your personal needs. We recommend that you try different
programs to determine your favorite. For an explanation of the heart rate controlled
programs, go to page 12.
Now-Zone
Now-Zone is a great feature that instantly puts you into a heart rate controlled
workout using your current heart rate as the target. Press the button a second time
to exit the heart rate controlled workout and enter the Manual program. Now-Zone
can be activated while in any program at any time as long as you are wearing your
wireless transmitter or grasping the contact heart rate sensors. (If you are not
wearing a transmitter or grasping the sensors, the matrix display reads “NO HR”
and your elliptical will switch to the Manual program.)
