RPM (AVG RPM) and low battery indicator. Cadence in RPM is the
speed of the pedal crank. The average rpm (AVG RPM) indicates the
average speed in RPMs since the start of the exercise.

2. The Middle display (HEART RATE) shows heart rate, session average
and % of maximum heart rate (MHR). The heart rate is presented in beats
per minute. Average (AVG) indicates the average heart rate since the
start of the exercise. The % of MHR display indicates exercise intensity
using the heart rate maximum formula 220-age to determine maximal
heart rate, and then current heart rate as a percentage of the maximum.

3. The bottom display (TRAINING) shows time, exercise session time, and

distance (the equivalent distance that would have been covered when
cycling on the road). To change which data is being shown press the

Frequently Asked Questions:

What are the Personal Data Settings for use at HOME and in a CLUB?

HOME setting should be followed using the procedures indicated starting

on page 23. Imputing you AGE, AHR and WT will give you the most accu­rate estimate of caloric expenditure on the bike.

CLUB•

•

setting could either be done buy entering your own personal data as
indicated in the instructions on page 23 or by using the DEFAULT settings
within the bikes computer.

NOTE: Using the computers default setting may not accurately represent your
own caloric expenditure.

What is Ambient Heart Rate (AHR)?

Ambient Heart Rate (AHR) is your normal heart rate duri

ng the day when you
are going about your day-to-day activities, but not exercising. You can calculate
your AHR while you are sitting and reading a book, watching TV, working on the
computer, etc. Take your Ambient Heart Rate for 3 days to determine your
average AHR.

How does Ambient Heart Rate (AHR) differ from Resting Heart Rate
(RHR)?

Resting Heart Rate (RHR) is your heart rate when you are in a complete state
of rest. It is usually taken in the morning after awaking and before arising from
bed. Whereas Ambient Heart Rate (AHR) is your normal heart rate during the
day as you are going about your

normal day-to-day activities. AHR for the gen­eral population is generally in the 70’s. World class athletes AHRs are in the
40’s and 50’s.

What are the Group Cycle Computers Default Settings?

When the rider does

not enter their own personal data for calculation of caloric
expenditure, the computer will use its preprogrammed Default settings.
The three Default setting are: Age (AGE): 30, Ambient Heart Rate (AHR): 70
bpm, Weight (WT) Kg/lb): 70 kg (154 lbs).

What if I Do Not want other riders to know my Personal Data Settings?

Inputting your personal data is the most accurate method for calculating an esti­mate of caloric expenditure. This information will NOT be stored and the Group
Cycle Computer will revert back to the Default setting when it turns off, 5 min­utes after the riding session or when left alone for 5 minutes.

In the Heart Rate

display, what does the %MHR mean and what is that

number?

The Group Cycle Computer will automatically determine your predicted Maximal
Heart Rate (MHR) when you input your personal data during the setup. The %
of MHR display indicates exercise intensity using the formula 220-age to repre­sent 100%, and then current heart rate as a percentage of the maximum.

Installation & Instructions

The computer is not picking up my heart rate

 Make sure that the heart rate strap is fitted snuggly at the bottom of your

ribcage and that the sensors are slightl y moi s te ned .

 The battery in the strap might be low, try another strap.
 Try using the MODE Key (Bottom Left) for automatic pairing with the com-

puter. For Analog straps the displayed code will be 4-digits and displayed
as 0000. For ANT+ chest straps the code will be alphanumeric.

 Check your distance from the computer during syncing to make sure your

12” (30cm) or closer.

 Cycle through the personal data screens twice and attempt to pair again.

Which heart rate straps work with the Group Cycle Com puter?

 Any ANT+ compatible HR strap will work, pairing to an ANT+ strap will

prevent any heart rate “crosstalk”.

 Any analogue 5.3 KHz heart rate strap such as Polar

®

HR will work.

I am picking up another riders heart rate

If bikes and riders are close together while wearing analog heart rate straps, it
is possible to have heart rate “crosstalk” where the signal from another rider is
shown on an adjacent console. Using ANT + heart rate straps will prevent this
problem. You can also try moving the bikes further apart.

What factors affect the battery life of the computer?

Excessive use of the back light will diminish battery life.

The computer timer is not working or is not running.

Press the Play/Pause/Up key (Upper Right), the timer may be in PAUSE mode.

The computer is not scanning between the Distance, Time and KCALs.

To use the SCAN feature, press the MODE key (bottom left) 3 times until
(SCAN) appears in the TRAINING display. This will automaticall y change be­tween the 3 data measures in intervals of 3 seconds.

What batteries does the Computer and Flywheel Transmitter take?

The computer console requires three AAA batteries. The flywheel transmitter
requires one CR2032 lithium coin cell battery.
