enough. Check that the electrodes are wet. In hard cases it is necessary
to use a contact gel or a mixture of water with a few drops of washing-
up liquid. The level for HR signal can vary from person to person. Put
chestbelt on another known person who has a good pulse rendering.
Uneven heart rate.
Use an external unit for example a HR watch to check if it also indicates
irregular pulse. If this is the case, there is probably disturbance in the room.
Magnetic fields from high voltage cables, elevators, fluorescent tube etc.
can cause the disturbance. Other electronic equipment could be placed too
close. Move the bike to a different location in the room or change rooms. If
an irregular HR remains it should be checked manually If the HR remains
irregular at work the person's health should be examined.
