SETTING ABSOLUTE HEART RATE (AHR) F. The last heart rate programming screen is Absolute Heart Rate (AHR). This number will usually be used if you are under the care of a physician for cardiac rehabilitation. The first programming screen for AHR shows three dashes “ ---------“ indicating that the AHR function is inactive. To skip the AHR programming sequence, simply press and hold the key for 2 seconds. G. If you wish to program the AHR function, simply press the key until the number you want appears on the screen, then set the number. Programming the AHR function will disable the Health Zone functions of the XC200. The Absolute Heart Rate Feature is designed for persons under the care of a cardiologist or in cardiac rehabilitation therapy. It allows you to set a single heart rate number that is not to be exceeded during exercise. Once you have programmed an Absolute Heart Rate number into the unit, exceeding that number will cause the display to flash and the audible beeper tone to sound until you have reduced your heart rate.

This alarm is automatic, and cannot be turned off. If you are below your Health (fat burning) Zone, the alarm will sound with a single beep. If you are above your Health (fat burning) Zone, the alarm will sound a double beep. The alarm will sound approximately every 6 seconds. CLEARING THE TIME IN HEALTH ZONE SCREEN To clear the Time in Health Zone Screen, simply press and hold the key for 2 seconds when the watch is in the Time in Health Zone Screen. Because the XC200’s Time In Health Zone screen will keep track of up to 9 hours and 59 minutes of time, you can easily track the time that you spend in your Health Zone for up to a week or more, if you wish. SETTING AND OPERATING HEALTH ZONE INDICATOR (XC200 ONLY) At the bottom of the Heart Rate and Time in Health Zone screens is the Health Zone Indicator. The Health Zone Indicator consists of a left and right arrow, and 4 small oval icons. Once you have programmed the XC200, the Health Zone Indicator will light up as soon as the watch begins receiving a pulse. If you are below 50% of your Maximum Heart Rate (MHR), the left arrow will light up, telling you that you need to increase the intensity of your exercise. Once you are above 50% of your MHR and in your Health Zone, the left arrow will go out and the first oval will light up. The 4 ovals represent 50-55%, 56-60%, 61-65% and 66-70% of your MHR respectively, and light up sequentially as you increase the intensity of your effort. This makes it easy to tell where you are in your Health (fat burning) Zone. If you exceed 70% of your MHR, the four ovals and the right arrow will light up, telling you that you need to reduce your exercise intensity to return to the Health (fat burning) Zone. <50% MHR >70% MHR 50-55% MHR 56-60% MHR 66-70% MHR 61-65% MHR 13Toll Free LifeSource Health Line 1-888-726-9966 Toll Free LifeSource Health Line 1-888-726-9966 REPLACING THE TRANSMITTER BATTERY BATTERY SIZE CR2032 3-volt Lithium cell.
