7 00 SERIES OWNER’S MANUAL

Heart Rate Monitoring

The 700 Series units offer a number of options for monitoring your

heart rate while you exercise. In addition to hand pulse grips, the

700 Series units also have a built in receiver that can read the signal

from Polar compatible heart rate monitors. To make this function

even easier for you to utilize, a chest strap that will monitor your

heart rate and transmit it to the console is included with each unit.

Pulse Hand Grips (Standard)

Each 700 Series unit comes standard with stainless steel pulse hand

grips. To activate, gently grasp both hand grips to obtain a heart

rate reading. For best results when using the hand grips we recom-

mend the following suggestions:

• Make sure that the palms of the hands are touching the contact

area of each hand pulse grip.

• Maintain an even pressure on the grips.

• Do not hold the hand pulse grips too tightly.

(Note: If you choose to wear a chest strap for monitoring purposes,

please note the console will take the measurement of the chest strap,

as it is more accurate.)

Chest Strap (Standard)

The 700 Series console includes a built-in receiver which will work

with most manufacturers’ chest straps. To get an accurate reading

using these devices, you will need to be within three feet of the

console, and a minimum of four feet from others using a heart rate

monitoring device.

(Note: The transmitter may fluctuate erratically if you are too close

to other heart rate monitoring equipment.)

The QUICK START mode allows you to start working out with the

There are three parts to the Heart Rate System on the Diamondback

700 Series equipment:

1. Sensor / Transmitter

2. Chest Band / Strap

3. The Receiver

The sensor component needs to be in contact with a smooth, steady

section of the user’s skin. The chest band or strap is necessary to

keep the sensor contact in place during exercise. The receiver of

the wireless ECG system is built into the console unit of the Dia-

mondback 700 Series equipment. Scroll through to the PULSE dis-

play option to have your heart rate shown in the display window.

How to Wear Your Sensor/ Transmitter

1. Buckle one end of the chest strap onto the transmitter.

2. Adjust the band length so that the fit is snug, but not too tight.

3. Buckle the other end of the chest strap onto the transmitter.

4. Center the transmitter on your chest below the pectoral muscle

(breasts).

5. Pull unit away from chest by stretching the belt and moisten the

conductive electrode strips located next to the buckles. If you

wish to wear the band over a shirt, moisten the shirt under the

area of the electrode strip.

Note: The transmitter is on automatically when being worn. It is off

when it is not connected to your body. However, as moisture may

activate the transmitter, thoroughly dry the transmitter to prolong

battery life.
