Monitoring Your Heart Rate During a Workout

This section explains what you need to do to monitor your heart rate while exercising. This section assumes that you have already configured your personal information settings.
Getting Ready
Before exercising, you need to attach the chest strap to your chest and synchronize the signal between the sensor bar and watch. Certain types of heart rate monitors can cause interference with the signal sent by the sensor bar to your watch. If you suspect that you are getting interference, move away from the other heart rate monitor.
To attach the chest strap to your chest
Moisten
2. Insert one of the tabs on either end of the strap into one of the holes in the sensor bar, from the inside of the sensor bar. Secure the tab in place so it lays down flat as shown in the illustration.
3. Wrap the chest strap around your chest so it is in direct contact with your skin, and secure the tab at the other end of the strap to the other hole of the sensor bar. Fasten the strap securely to ensure that it does not slip down while you are exercising.
4. Make sure that the sensor pads are located above your rib cage.
Take care that you do not fasten the chest strap too tightly.
1. Slightly moisten the two sensor pads (diamond pattern areas) on the inside surface of the sensor bar. This will provide better contact for the sensor pads.
Tab

About your heart rate
Your heart rate is a value that indicates the number of times your heart beats per minute. During a workout, your heart rate increases in order to supply large amounts of oxygen to your muscles. As your fitness level increases, the blood sent to your muscles becomes richer in oxygen, and so you will need to workout at a higher intensity in order to achieve the same training effect as you did previously. This is what is known as cardiovascular fitness”. As your cardiovascular system develops, your heart is able to move more blood with each pump, which means that it does not need to pump as often as it did before. This is why heart rate is a major factor when setting workout goals.

Synchronizing the Watch with the Sensor Bar
While you are wearing the chest strap, press the B button while the watch is in the Timekeeping Mode, Stopwatch Mode, or Timer Mode to start synchronization. After synchronization is complete, the watch will receive the signal from the sensor bar and display your heart rate.
The heart mark will flash on the display while your heart rate is being monitored.
In the Stopwatch Mode, the Heart Rate screen shows the workout intensity along with the heart rate.
In the Timer Mode, the heart rate is displayed while a timer operation is in progress. Heart rate is not displayed while the timer is reset to its starting time.
Pressing the B button while the watch is monitoring your heart rate will perform synchronization again.
Synchronization will be cancelled automatically if the watch is not able to receive any signal from the sensor bar for about 60 seconds.

Heart Rate Monitor Troubleshooting
If this happens:
No heart rate appears on the display, or displayed values are excessive or vary widely.
Heart rate measurement suddenly stops automatically.
Interference in the signal from the chest strap.
Check this:
Is the strap attached to your chest correctly?
Your heart rate cannot be detected correctly if the strap is not attached to your chest correctly.
See To attach the chest strap to your chest.
Are the sensor bar’s sensor pads (diamond pattern areas) wet?
Your heart rate cannot be detected if your skin is dry.
Warm up until you start sweating or moisten the sensor pads with water.
Are the sensor bar’s sensor pads dirty?
Dirty sensor pads interfere with stable heart rate pickup.
Clean the sensor pads as required. To clean the sensor pads, wipe them with a soft, dry cloth, or with a cloth that has been moistened in weak solution of water and a mild neutral detergent. Wring out all excess liquid from the cloth before wiping. Never use thinner, benzene, alcohol, or any other volatile agent to clean the sensor pads.
Is the sensor bar’s battery dead?
If so, contact your dealer or CASIO distributor to have the battery replaced.
Is there some source of electromagnetic waves (high-tension power lines, TV, cell phone, etc.) nearby?
Electromagnetic waves can make normal heart rate detection and communication impossible.
Possible sources of electromagnetic waves are: signal equipment, overhead railway cables, electric bus cables, streetcars, automobiles, motorcycles, computers, motorized fitness equipment, medical devices, electronic security gates, radios, railway crossings, TV transmitters, radar sites, etc.
Do you have heart trouble?
Normal readings are not possible if you have a heart abnormality that causes changes in the waveform of an electrocardiogram, or if you are suffering from arrhythmia.
Is the watch too far from the chest strap?
The maximum allowable distance between the strap and watch is about 90 cm (35.4 inches). Communication is not possible when they are too far apart.
Do you have a hairy chest?
Hair on the chest can interfere with heart beat detection.
Did more than one minute pass without the watch detecting any signal from the chest strap?
This will cause measurement to stop automatically. Restart the measurement operation.
Did the battery of the sensor bar or watch go dead during measurement?
The RECOV indicator will flash on the display when the watchs battery goes low. If the RECOV indicator appears frequently, have the watchs battery replaced.
If communication with the sensor bar is not possible and the RECOV indicator is not flashing on the display, it could mean that the sensor bar battery is dead or that the system is malfunctioning. Take the watch in to your dealer or CASIO distributor.
Important!
Data in the watch’s memory will be deleted when you have the battery replaced.
Is someone nearby using the same type of watch as this one?
Move away from the other watch.
If this happens:
The watch does not calculate energy consumption.
The energy consumption value is strange.
A heart mark appears when the stopwatch or timer is reset.
Check this:
Is your heart rate above 90 bpm?
The watch will not calculate energy consumption unless your heart rate is 90 bpm or higher.
Are your personal information settings correct?
The watch calculates energy consumption using your heart rate and personal information. Make sure your personal information settings are correct and up to date.
Did you press the stopwatch or timer following an operation during which you did not perform heart rate measurement?
Pressing the B button in order to reset the stopwatch or timer also starts a heart rate measurement operation. The heart mark will disappear from the display if you hold down the B button to reset to the stopwatch or timer.

Memory

The watch maintains workout records that contain a wealth of information about each workout. A workout record is created for your last workout that you timed in the Stopwatch Mode and stored automatically whenever you clear the stopwatch to all zeros. Note that memory is shared by lap/split time records and workout records. There is also a cumulative record that keeps track of long-term cumulative totals. The following will give you some idea about how much memory capacity is available.
If you use memory to store lap/split time records only (no workout records), you can store up to 200 records during a single workout.
If you use memory to store workout records only (Start Reset), you can store up to 42 records.
