Symptoms Probable Cause / Corrective Action
Display does not light up No batteries in the meter•
No current in the outlet (if power adaptor is used). Check the fuses. •
Check cables and connections. •
If you use power adaptor: Is it the correct power adaptor? Check that the •
transformer information (voltage, current, polarity, AC / DC) in section
‘Facts’ complies with the transformer which is used.
No workload Check calibration.•
Check that brake belt is hooked in the spring.•
No heart rate Check that the battery is alright in the chest belt, moisten your thumbs and •
click on the electrodes, a low clicking sound will be heard at the battery cover,
alternatively that the heart rate is displayed in the computer software.
Make sure the belt fits correctly on the test person, see • Fig: Placement of chest
belt in section ‘Heart Rate’, and that the strap is sufficiently tightened. Mois-
ten the electrodes, in severe cases it may be necessary to use gel alternative,
one drop of dish washing liquid mixed in water. Pulse signal strength varies
from person to person. Try the belt with a person known to have a good pulse
wearing a chest belt.
Make sure there are no loose cables. Use another HR receiver (HR watch or •
test bike monitor) to check the chest belt.
Uneven heart rate Use an external unit, for example a HR watch, to check if it also indicates •
an irregular pulse. If this is the case, there is probably disturbance in the
room. The disturbance may be electronic fields from power cables, elevators,
lamps etc. or other electronic devices which are too close (e.g. cell phones).
Move the bike to a different location in the room or change rooms. If an
irregular HR remains it should be checked manually If the HR remains
irregular at work the person's health should be examined.
No rpm reading Check cable.•
Unable to calibrate force The potentiometer shaft is not attached to the pendulum shaft, tighten the •
screw.
The potentiometer is misadjusted.•

The pedals are not tight. Tighten them or change pedals. •
The crank is loose. Check, tighten. •
The base bearing is loose. Contact your dealer for service. •

Check that the carriage block is taken off and that nothing is against the •
crank, chain, or wheel except the brake belt.
