Danger

• Explosion Hazard •

The device is not designed for use in areas where an explosion
hazard may occur.
Explosion hazards may result from the use of  ammable anes­thetics, skin cleansing agents or disinfectants.

Warning

• Patient Hazard, Equipment Damage •

Do not expose the optibike to direct sunlight to prevent system
components from reaching inadmissible high temperatures.

Do NOT use the optibike outdoors (medical device). Furthermore
the device has no additional protection against the ingress of
humidity. Humidity inside the device may cause equipment
malfunctions and increases the risk of an electric shock.

Additionally, the device should not be operated in the vicinity
of electric power plants, because they may impair equipment
functions.

The optibike ergometer may only be used in combination with
accessories approved by ergoline GmbH.

• Risk to Persons •

Before using the ergometer, the operator must ascertain that it is

used to connect the device to other pieces of equipment.

• Equipment Malfunction •

Cellular telephones may not be used in the immediate vicinity
of the ergometer, because they might interfere with the proper
functioning of the ergometer.
Electromagnetic interference most probably exists when the
watt reading is unstable. If the displayed value changes fre­quently even though the speed is above 30 RPM, this may be due
to electro magnetic interference.

Warning

• Shock Hazard •

When the ergometer is connected to other equipment or if a
medical system is created, it must be ensured that the added
leakage currents do not present a hazard.
In case of questions, please contact your ERGOLINE dealer or the

TRAINING MODES

INTRODUCTION

The optibike ergometer supports a number of di erent
training types.
Up to 10 di erent protocols can be con gured and saved
in the ergometer.
For a training session, you can call up one of the protocols
and start exercising.

Each protocol begins with a warmup phase. You can con­ gure the duration of the warmup phase and the load (e.g.,
3 minutes at 25 watts).

The next step is the exercise phase (see below) which is
followed by the "recovery phase". For both phases, the
duration and the load can be con gured.

A distinction is made between the di erent training modes
for the actual exercise phase:

Pulse-controlled training (mode: Pulse)

For this training mode, it is necessary to wear the supplied
chest strap.
The strap measures the pulse rate and sends it to the
optibike.

At the ergometer, you set your training pulse (please ask
your doctor, coach, or therapist) and the duration of the
exercise phase.

During the training session, the optibike permanently
checks your current pulse rate and compares it with the
set training pulse. If your pulse rate is below this value, the
load will be increased; if your pulse is too high, the ergom­eter will automatically reduce the load.

Training at a constant load (mode: Constant)

In this mode, you will exercise for a de ned period of time
and with a  xed load.
The optibike maintains the watt reading at the set value ­your pulse rate will be displayed, but the load will NOT be
adapted to this value.

Caution

Health Hazard

Before starting to exercise with the ergometer, please consult

with your doctor whether you are  t for an ergometer training

with optibike.

Discuss the training protocol best suitable for you with your

doctor and ask for advice concerning your training pulse and

maximum load (watts).

At the end of this manual, you will  nd form sheets where you

can note down the recommended training settings.

Take this sheet with you, when you go to your doctor’s o ce.

If you feel dizzy or sick during the training, stop exercising

immediately!

Inappropriate or excessive training may be dangerous for your

health!

Note

Health Hazard

• No training protocols are con gured in a new optibike.
Select the MANUAL mode when testing the ergometer for
the  rst time.

• The training protocols can be con gured under “Settings”
(see description on the following pages).

- 15 -

ergoline optibike

Interval training (mode: Interval)

For this mode, you can con gure two intervals with di er­ent durations and loads. The ergometer will then alternate
between these two settings (e.g., 1 minute at 80watts,
followed by 2 minutes at 30 watts, alternating for a total
of 20 minutes).

CONFIGURING A TRAINING PROTOCOL

The optibike ergometer can store a maximum of 10 di er­ent training protocols.

Upon delivery of a new optibike ergometer, no training
protocols are con gured.

Discuss your personal training data with your doctor,
coach, or physiotherapist.
At the end of this manual, you will  nd form sheets where
you can enter the training settings recommended for your
sessions.

Follow these steps to con gure your training protocol:

Switch on the ergometer.

The ON/OFF switch is situated on the rear of the unit.

PREPARING A TRAINING SESSION

ADJUSTING THE SADDLE HEIGHT

The saddle height of the optibike ergometer is set manually
with a clamping lever, which permits continuous adjust­ment.
With the pedal in the bottom position, the angle between
the axis formed by the upper body and the thigh should be
approximately 10°.

ADJUSTING THE HANDLEBAR

Set the handlebar to a position where it is comfortable to
reach when you sit upright.
To do so, open clamping lever and set the handlebar to a
suitable angle.
Then tighten the clamping lever.

10°

CORRECT SITTING POSITION

Note

• Tighten the clamping levers only as much as necessary,
NOT with maximum force.

• Lubricate the clamping lever threads occasionally using a
suitable lubricant (e.g. OKS470).

- 20 -

APPLYING THE CHEST STRAP

For optimal cardiovascular training, the heart rate must be
monitored during the session.

For this reason, the optibike ergometer is supplied with a
digital chest strap, which measures your pulse rate and
continually sends it to the optibike.

• Attach the elastic strap to one end of the transmitter.

• Adjust the length of the strap so that it  ts snugly
around your chest, but is not too tight. Attach the
strap to your chest (for men: directly below the pec­torals, for women: below the breasts) and close the
strap.

• Having applied the strap, lift the transmitter a little o
your skin and moisten the two contact areas (ribbed)
on the back of the transmitter and the skin below.
The moistened electrodes should have full contact
with the skin (with the transmitter logo on the out­side).

CORRECT APPLICATION OF THE CHEST STRAP

ATTACHING THE ELASTIC STRAP TO THE TRANSMITTER

Note

If the chest strap is properly applied but the heart rate is not

shown on the ergometer, check the battery and make sure the

serial number of the strap has been correctly entered (see the

“Maintenance” chapter in this manual).

Note

The optibike ergometer is only compatible with the supplied

ergoline digital radio chest belt!

TRAINING WITH CHIP CARD

As an alternative to the training programs stored in the
optibike, it is possible to load training protocols from the
chip card.
A PC software program called "ergoline opticare basic" is
used to write training programs to the chip card.

Upon completion of the training session, the optibike saves
the entire procedure (incl. load and heart rate waveforms)
to the chip card - the data can be reviewed and analyzed
at the PC later on.

STARTING THE CHIP CARD TRAINING SESSION

Insert the training card with the stored protocol into the
chip card reader (on the right side of the control terminal)

- the golden chip on the training card must point down-
ward.

Select the "Training" mode and con rm with [START].

The optibike switches to the chip card mode and reads the

This setting is only used for the "Pulse" training protocols,
i.e., for heart-rate controlled protocols.

Here you determine the rate at which the load is adapted
in response to a change of your pulse rate.

gradual:

The load changes very slowly.
Choose this setting if your heart rate rises very quickly in
response to a load increase.

normal (default):

The load changes at a moderate rate.

steep:

The load changes very quickly.
Choose this setting if your heart rate rises very slowly in
response to a load increase.

With this setting you determine the interval after which
the exercise time determined in the training protocol will
start (default: 3 minutes)

Upon completion of the warmup phase, the exercise phase
will begin, either

• after the set training pulse has been reached
or

• after the maximum load has been reached
or

• after the set period for "Duration: load +" has elapsed.

d = 1.2 √P

d = 1.2 √P for 80 MHz to 800 MHz

d = 2.3 √P for 800 MHz to 2.5 GHz

where P is the rated output power rating of the
transmitter in watts (W) according to the trans­mitter manufacturer and d is the recommended
separation distance in meters (m).

Field strengths from  xed RF transmitters, as deter­mined by an electromagnetic site survey (a), should
be less than the compliance level in each frequency
range (b).

Interference may occur in the vicinity of equipment
marked with the following symbol

NOTE 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is a ected by absorption and re ection from structures,

objects, and people.

(a) Field strengths from  xed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radio, AM and FM radio

broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to  xed RF transmit­ters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured  eld strength in the location in which the optibike ergometer is used
exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the optibike ergometer should be observed to verify normal operation.
If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the optibike ergometer.

(b) Over the frequency range from 150 kHz to 80 MHz,  eld strengths should be less than 3 V/m.

RECOMMENDED SEPARATION DISTANCES BETWEEN PORTABLE AND

MOBILE RF COMMUNICATIONS EQUIPMENT AND THE OPTIBIKE ERGOMETER

The optibike ergometer is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the
user of the optibike ergometer can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF
communications equipment (transmitters) and the optibike ergometer as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the com­munications equipment.
