Data Readouts

As the user exercises, the unit keeps track of and displays the following data:
BPM (Beats Per Minute) – User’s current heart rate. Heart rate will appear when a signal is

introduced.

Calories – The total accumulated calories burned during workout.
Calories Per Hour – Calculation of present workload’s energy exertion in Calories per Hour.
Distance – The total accumulated distance during workout. Depending on the defaults chosen, this

measurement will show in English (miles) or Metric (kilometers). The unit uses a xed 24”
(61 cm) stroke, giving a travel distance of 48” (122 cm) per revolution. Distance = Strides

per Minute x 24” (61 cm) x Time.

SPM (Strides per Minute) – The average number of strides per minute at current speed.
METs (Metabolic Equivalent) – Displayed only if no BPM signal is present. A MET is the metabolic

equivalent of the energy expended by the human body at rest.
Anything over one MET is considered exertion. METs are calculated

by the display and updated every 1 – 1.2 seconds. METs = Cal/Hr X

2.2 / User Weight (in lbs.)

WATTS – The absolute meter-kilogram-second unit of power equal to the work done at the rate of
one joule per second, equivalent to 1/746 horsepower.

Heart Rate Indicator

Contact Heart Rate – Lightly hold hand grips on the handlebar ensuring that hands are clean and
contact both the front and back sensors of each grip. A heart rate will display in typically 30 seconds
or less.

Factors that interfere with heart rate signal:

• hand lotions

• oils or body powder

• excessive dirt

• excessive movement

• body composition

• hydration

• too loose grip

• too tight grip

• resting or leaning on grips

Wireless Heart Rate – To use this feature, a Polar® compatible heart rate transmitter belt (not
included) must be worn.

Once the actual heart rate is determined, the LED to the right of the Data Readouts is blinking to the
displayed BPM and the Heart LED lights up. The color of the light represents a scale of low to high
target heart rate.

Blue 0 – 69 BPM

Green 70 – 93 BPM

Yellow 94 – 119 BPM (Fat Burn Zone)

Blood Orange 120 – 169 (Cardio Zone)

Magenta 170 and higher

Damaged Parts

Materials damaged in shipment should not be returned for credit. Shipping damages are the

responsibility of the carrier (UPS, Federal Express, trucking companies, etc.)

Apparent Damage

Upon receipt of your shipment, check all items carefully. Any damage seen with a visual check must

claims.

Concealed Damage

Damage not seen with a visual check upon receipt of a shipment but notices later must be reported
to the carrier as soon as possible. Upon discovery of the damage, a written or phone request to
the carrier asking them to perform an inspection of the materials must be made within ten days of
the delivery date. Keep all shipping containers and packing materials as they will be needed in the
inspection process. The carrier will provide you with an inspection report and the necessary forms for

ling a concealed damage claim. Concealed damage claim is the carrier’s responsibility.

Appendix - Program Overviews

P1: Weight Loss 1

The Weight Loss 1 program is a ve-minute core program designed for low to medium intensity

training that the user can sustain for an extended period of time. It builds from a low intensity baseline

to include short bursts of higher resistance while the elevation increases by fty percent for two-

minutes. The constant variety provides for periods of higher expenditure and training effect without
the introduction of undue fatigue allowing the user to perform for longer periods of time.

P2: Weight Loss 2

The Weight Loss 2 program is a ve-minute core program that begins at a low intensity level and

incrementally increases both resistance and elevation until peaking after three-minutes and remains
at that level for one-minute before ramping back down to the initial level. The repetitive program is
designed to encourage a transition in training intensity to encourage the development of aerobic and
anaerobic energy systems.

P3: Weight Loss 3

The Weight Loss 3 program is a three-minute thirty-second core program designed to give the user
an intense workout. Users will experience moderate resistance and elevation at the beginning to

simulate the start of a climb and will crest at peak elevation gain and difcult resistance after two-

minutes. The resistance then returns to the preliminary level and the core program repeats itself for
the next hill.

P4: Cardio 1

The Cardio 1 program is a four-minute core program designed for medium intensity workouts. Users
will experience intervals of moderate resistance and elevation at the beginning to simulate the start of
a climb and greater resistance and steeper elevation after two-minutes. The resistance then returns to
the preliminary level and the core program repeats itself for the next interval.

P5: Cardio 2

The Cardio 2 program is a two-minute core program utilizing a 1:1 work to rest ratio. It is designed to
improve both aerobic and anaerobic capabilities as users will face a high level of resistance for one
minute followed by a one-minute recuperation period before performing the work interval again. The
elevation remains constant throughout the program.

P6: Cardio 3

The Cardio 3 program is designed to maintain a high total demand with two-minutes with high
resistance and low elevation and two minutes at medium resistance with higher elevation for a
total four-minute core program. The prolonged exertion period takes advantage of the long term
energy stores and total aerobic capability when associated with speeds that require a high sustained
cardiovascular demand.

P9: Heartrate Control

The Heartrate Control (HRC) program will attempt to bring the user to their target heartrate in 3-5
minutes, then keep them there for the duration of the body of the program. A Cool Down is built in to

the end of the program. HRC is run in Constant Power and thus denes watts.

The user selects a target heartrate, which defaults to 75% of max (max is 220-age). Limits should be
set to not allow a Target HR (THR) less than 60% of max or more than 95% of max.

The protocol starts in Stage II, with the entry point based on Target HR.

• 80 – 120 BPM = Step 6

• 121-127 BPM = Step 8

• 128-134 BPM = Step 10

• 135-up BPM = Step 12

A running pulse-to-pulse BPM value is continuously measured.
Every 15 seconds the user’s pulse rate is sampled and a prediction function is evaluated (decision.)

This is subtracted from the target heartrate to form an error value which is scaled and added to the
current load value. There is a maximum rate of change of 15 steps per decision.

The workload equates to the speed and incline load of the 750T Treadmill HRC Program. A chart of

Step and Watts has been created. It has four dened stages:

• Stage 1 ramps the load from Step 1 to Step 5.

• Stage 2 ramps the load from Step 6 through Step 18.

• Stage 3 ramps the load from Step 19 through Step 39.

• Stage 4 ramps the load from Step 40 through Step 100.

The user has full control over incline throughout the program, with incline having no bearing on
the program at all. The user has limited control over the load in that the user’s selections are not
permanent. At the next decision, a new load can be chosen by the software as described above to

override any user modications.

If the user presses the LEVEL key, they can modify their Target Heartrate real-time. Utilize the Target
Heartrate Setup selection screen and exit back to the program in progress, making the change to
their target heartrate real-time.

Lost Signal

If a signal is lost for two consecutive decisions (roughly 30 seconds), the display will beep four times,
show ‘HR SIGNAL LOST’, show dashes in the BPM window and show the heart solid white. During
this HR signal lost period, the load will remain steady.

If after two further decisions (roughly an additional 30 seconds) the heartrate signal has not been
reestablished, continue to show ‘HR SIGNAL LOST’ on the Text area. The program will reduce the
workload by 10 steps per minute until minimum workload or Step 1. After one minute at minimum
workload, go to Exiting Active Mode.

Cybex Arc Trainer 625A/625AT Owner’s Manual

Cool Down
By default, Cool Down occurs at session time minus two minutes or if the user presses the Cool

Down button. Cool Down goes to 75% of existing step, then drops by 1 step every 15 seconds for the

remainder of Cool Down.
