3.2 Fitness Equipment States
It is important for the FIT1/e to know the state of the fitness equipment. The fitness equipment state
determines when the FIT1/e will search for devices and allows the FIT1/e to send control messages
(start/stop) to a paired watch. These functions are handled by the FIT1/e in order to:
1) Simplify the implementation for fitness equipment manufacturers.
2) Provide a consistent end-user experience across different fitness equipment implementations.
3) Provide optimal power management
FE State Descriptions FIT1e Activities
ASLEEP (OFF) – This state applies any time
that the FIT1e is turned off or in a power
saving sleep mode.
FIT1e is in low power mode.
READY – When the FIT1e is turned on or
activated, it will start in READY state,
waiting for a user to initiate a workout
session.
FIT1e is searching for heart rate monitors and
watches to pair to. Because some FE, like
treadmills, may be in READY state for indefinite
periods of time, the FIT1e pairing search does not
time out.
IN USE – This state corresponds to an active
session on the FE. The chronometer begins
running.
The FIT1e continues searching for heart rate
monitors or watches for 30 seconds after the FE
state switches to IN USE. If none are found, the
FIT1e goes to a power saving mode.
If the FIT1e is paired to a heart rate monitor, it
receives heart rate data and passes it to the FE.
If the FIT1e is paired to a watch, it:
1) sends a message to the watch to start its
chronometer
