Exercise Heart Rate Sensor

PS-2129A

*012-12232*

Equipment Introduction

The Exercise Heart Rate Sensor uses a transmitter mounted on

a transmitter strap and a receiver inside the sensor to measure

heart rates from 40 to 240 beats per minute. The sensor can

measure the heart rate during exercise without a sensor cable

getting in the way because the transmitter and the receiver

communicate wirelessly.

The transmitter snaps onto the transmitter strap and the strap

wraps around your chest with the transmitter positioned over

the cardiac muscle. The transmitter sends the electrical signals

from your heart to the Exercise Heart Rate Sensor. The Exer-

cise Heart Rate Sensor averages the heart rate in five second

intervals. A small red light-emitting diode (LED) on the sen-

sor blinks when a heart beat is detected.

The transmitter comes with a replaceable type CR 2505 bat-

tery that has an estimated life of two years (assuming one hour

of use per day). The transmitter strap (PS-2524) is designed to

fit medium to extra-extra large. An accessory transmitter strap

(PS-2519) available separately from PASCO fits small to extra

small.
