The User Indicator Lights across the top of the Console quickly show the location of the User in relation to the pacer. The Pacer Icon (center of the
User Indicator Lights) is the placement of the pacer, the Indicator Light is the User. The time difference between the User and the pacer is shown by
which User Indicator Light is active (see the time scale below).
- -120 -60 -30 -15 -5 +5 +15 +30 +60 +120 +
(seconds)
Note: The values presented during the first workout are based on the default pace value of 12 minutes per mile.
When a workout is started, the Average Pacer will be active. To change the pacer during a workout, push the COMPARE button. The pacer will shift
to the Best Pacer, and the User Placement Window and appropriate User Indicator Light will adjust. If the COMPARE button is pushed again, the
feature is Off, and the User Placement Display and Indicator Light will be deactivated.
Note: When the distance goal for the program is changed, it is a shift in the training focus of the program. The compare display will use the default
values until a workout with the new distance goal is completed.
During a Pacer workout (1 Mile Pacer, 5k Pacer, 10k Pacer), the User inputs the time it will take for the pacer to complete the workout. The User
Placement Window does not have an off option during a Pacer workout. The Compare button shifts the pacer value from Input Pace, Average, or
Best.
Fitness Score Display
The Fitness Score is based on an estimate of the User’s VO2 Max and calorie burn over their last five workouts.
VO2 Max estimates are calculated using performance data (time, distance and average heart rate or an estimate
of average heart rate if that data is unavailable). VO2 Max is the maximal oxygen consumption of the aerobic
physical  tness of the individual, and is a determinant of the endurance capacity of the User during prolonged exercise. ( V = Volume, O2 = Oxygen,
and Max = maximum rate ).
For every workout completed that is longer than 10 minutes or a mile (1.6 km) in distance, the Console will apply those workout values toward your
Fitness Score. This value is displayed on the Fitness Score Display area of the Console.
Note: Using a Heart Rate Chest Strap provides the most accurate information to calculate the Fitness Score. A Fitness Score is provided when
a minimum of 10 minutes or 1 mile (1.6 km) of distance is done during a workout. If no heart rate is supplied, an approximation based on the User
Profile will be used to calculate the score.
The Fitness Score may change only slightly for a User that performs the same length of workout at a similar intensity level. However, if that same User
were to increase intensity over the same length of a workout, their score would increase. Since the score is based on VO2 Max (estimated), even a
small score increase shows a significant shift in the User’s fitness level.
Note: A User’s score may drop slightly if fatigue is present. With the proper combination of exercise and rest, a User’s Fitness Score will rise in a
similar way to their VO2 Max. This will also be reflected in their ability to perform longer or faster workouts. Fitness Scores should only be com-
pared to your previous scores and not to other User Profiles.
Pausing or Stopping
The Console will go into Pause Mode if the user pushes PAUSE/STOP during a workout.
1. Push the PAUSE/STOP button to pause your workout. The Console will display “ PAUSED “.
2. To continue your workout, push the START button.
To stop the workout, push the PAUSE/STOP button. The Console will go into Results / Cool Down mode.
