MONARK NOVO CONTOL UNIT
Connect external device via RS232 and USB
We recommend that you set the treadmill power switch to “off ” when
connecting external devices to avoid the transmission of incorrect data.
Be careful when connecting different types of external devices to prevent
flash-over and subsequent injury. The user must be certain that the instru-
ment connector and the cable are designed for the intended purpose. Serious
injury to the user and / or device may result if inappropriate connections are
attempted.
Both RS232 port and USB-B port are located on Monark novo Control
Unit in the front of the treadmill, see fig: Front connections.
First connect to the Monark novo Control Unit and then to the external
device. Set the treadmill power switch to “on” and then start the external
device.
MONARK NOVO DISPLAY UNIT
MENU
In the display is a menu where you can change different settings. You
can find it by pressing the Menu icon. Then a menu is showed to the
right in the display where you can select the following:
Pulse settings
(Pulse settings)
General settings
(Settings)
Not activated
You can at any time during the training open the menu to e.g. search
for a chest belt.
PULSE SETTINGS
Here you can choose what heart rate standard you want the treadmill
to search for, Bluetooth SMART, ANT+ or both.
The person’s heart rate (“pulse”) can be measured by, for example, a
chest belt that detects your pulse from your heart and sends the pulse
to the treadmill with Bluetooth SMART or ANT+ technology.
Bluetooth SMART
When the treadmill and a Bluetooth SMART heart rate monitor have
been paired the heart rate monitor Bluetooth ID and the current heart
rate is displayed at “Pulse”. You can choose to actively lock the heart
rate monitor by pressing “Lock”. Then the treadmill is only searching
for that particular heart rate monitor. Press “Reset” if you want to
release the lock to only a specific heart rate monitor and lock with a
new or continue to search freely.
You can use several Bluetooth SMART heart rate monitors to the
treadmill, but you can only lock to one at a time.
The treadmill locks to the heart rate monitor that it finds first (within
10 m). If more heart rate monitors are used, we therefore recommended
to lock into a specific Bluetooth ID to ensure that the correct heart rate
appears.
ANT+
(ANT+ is always active)
ANT+ uses “proximity pairing” which means that you should be
close to the display for it to start listening to it. When the display and
the heart rate monitor is paired, you can be relatively far from the
bike with retained function. This process ensures that the display is
listening on the correct belt.
If you have connected to an ANT+ heart rate monitor it says
“connected” at “ANT+ status:” and the current heart rate is
displayed at “Pulse”.
NOTE!
It does not work to connect the
PC to the treadmill. Only ECG or
spirometry can be connected to
control the treadmill.
A medical electrical system
(ME-System) is created when
the treadmill is combined with
an external device. The respon-
sibility rests with the manufactu-
rer of this ME-System and not
with Monark Exercise.
