Use the softkeys on the right and left (↑↓) to position the
bar cursor on ERGOMETRY and conrm the selection with
SELECT.
The stored test protocols available for selection will be
displayed. There are ve xed protocols (protocols 1 to 5,
see Appendix) , whereas protocols 6 to 15 are user‑pro‑
grammable.
The protocol menu provides an overview of the test
phases:
e.g.: 50 W / 2 min / 25 W
means: initial (basic) load 50 watts
stage time 2 minutes
load increment 25 watts
Use the softkeys on the right and left (↑↓) to position the
bar cursor on one of the protocols and conrm the selec‑
tion with SELECT.
The exercise test is started with the "Start" key, a blood
pressure measurement at rest may precede the test (see
"Settings").
When the basic load appears on the display (after approx.
15 seconds or upon termination of the blood pressure
measurement) and the patient's RPM indicator blinks, the
patient should start pedalling.
The internal protocol will now control the entire exercise
test ‑ the display always indicates the current values.
With the +5 W and ‑5 W keys, the current load can be
changed at any time (in increments of +/‑1 W up to
+/‑25 W, as congured).
