Ergometer
Type er900L
The meaning of the various training parameters:
max. Heartfreq. = This is the pulse-steady-state limit for heart rate that is to be used
in this training. When this limit is reached, the ergometer will
take over complete load control to ensure that the patient’s heart
rate remains stable at this level (by lowering and raising the load
automatically).
max. Systole = Alarm parameter, when reached will cause program termination
max. Diastole = Alarm parameter, when reached will cause program termination
Start Load = Load value with which the system begins stressing the patient.
The time interval for the initial load is specified by the interval
for the first load increment.
max. Load = Maximum load value that is not to be exceeded
Interv. BPM = Interval at which blood pressure readings are to be made.
PWC = heart rate value at which a PWC value is to be determined
(see ANNEX D.1)
TRAININGIND. = see ANNEX D.2
LOAD STEP = Twelve load steps may be individually programmed. An entry
made into any one of these load steps will cause the same
value to be entered into all subsequent load steps.
Interv. LOAD = Time interval of the load, that is elapsed time for the respective
load step.
LOAD CHANGE = amount of load change with respect to the previous load step
Example: Initial load = 025W
Load change 1 = 015W +
------------
LOAD step 1 = 040 W
!
When running pulse-steady-state training, the significance of the load in-
crements and load changes is limited to the preliminary training prior to
reaching the desired maximum heart rate (Pulse-Steady-State limit). Load
control is dependent upon heart rate response after this limit is reached.
Pulse-Steady-State training may only be carried out when the heart rate is
continuously provided to the system.
