Heart Rate Monitoring and HeartLogic Intelligence
The Q47c and Q47ci ellipticals are equipped with state-of-the-art heart rate monitoring and control technologies
that help you make the most of your training efforts. Both models include on-demand heart rate monitoring—just
grasp the digital contact heart rate grip sensors on the stationary handlebars and your current heart rate is
displayed on the console.
For even greater control of your workout, the Q47ci is also equipped
with HeartLogic Intelligence, Octane Fitness’ sophisticated yet easy
to use heart rate control technology. This sophisticated solution
provides the most accurate and effective workout possible using
heart rate data captured by a wireless chest strap or the digital
contact heart rate grip sensors on the stationary handlebars.
The Q47ci features premium workouts designed to take full
advantage of the benefits of heart rate zone training: Fat Burn,
Cardio, Heart Rate Custom Interval, and 30:30. The console displays
time-in-zone, current heart rate, heart rate %, and target heart rate
so you know exactly where you are and where you should be.
Using a wireless
chest strap
(Q47ci)
The wireless chest strap transmits your heart rate to the electronics console at a
distance of up to three feet. You may use any Polar™-compatible (coded or non-coded)
transmitter. Adjust the length of the elastic strap and fasten the transmitter around
your torso, underneath your shirt. Place the strap just below your chest. Make sure
the logo is away from you and right side up. It may help to moisten the electrodes on
the back of the transmitter with a small amount of water for better contact with the
skin. The electrodes are the ribbed portion on the back side of the transmitter that
sits against your skin. Make sure the strap fits snugly but doesn’t restrict breathing.
The contact handgrips reading takes priority if both the wireless and contact heart
rate grips are in use.
Using the digital
contact heart
rate sensors
The digital contact heart rate sensors are located on the stationary handlebars of the
Q47c and Q47ci. The grips can be used to check your heart rate during your workout.
For the most accurate heart rate reading possible, grasp each contact heart rate grip
so that the contact sensor portion of the grip rests in the palm of your hand. Grip the
contact sensors firmly, and keep your hands steady and in place.
Heart rate
programs
(Q47ci)
The Q47ci provides three different heart rate controlled programs (Fat Burn, Cardio,
and Heart Rate Custom Interval) to offer you more variety to suit your personal needs.
The 30:30 program also uses heart rate data to provide an assessment of heart rate
recovery. We recommend that you try different programs to determine your favorite.
Refer to the Q47 Program Reference chart for more information.
