STANDART WORKOUT SCREENS
For quick workouts that are initiated by pedalling from the IDLE SCREEN or workouts that are initiated by selecting a TIME GOAL, DISTANCE GOAL, ENERGY GOAL or PULSE GOAL the following screen shall be provided during the workout
CONNECTVITY MODE
GENERAL
This console is capable of connecting to BLE heart rate straps. In addition, the console shall be able to connect to smartphone or tablet apps via BLE. The console shall also be able to connect to both a heart rate strap (BLE) and simultaneously connect to a smartphone app.
CONNECTING TO A SMARTPHONE OR TABLET APP VIA BLUETOOTH (FTMS)
During the connection process, constant pedalling is necessary, otherwise the display switches off after 240 seconds and the connection is interrupted. While the console is advertising a user may connect to a compatible App (e.g. Kinomap, Zwift) via their smartphone or tablet. When the console successfully pairs with a smartphone or tablet App, the BT advertising will end, the console will display BLE words and the words shall stay on. During the workout the console transmits the user’s workout data to the connected App
After powering on or resetting, the console will first display 1, then display the 4-digit Bluetooth number, and then enter the standby interface. During power on or reset, the console shall automatically generate a randomized 4-digit code. The advertised label will be “Kettler ####” where the #### is the randomized, 4-digit identifier. This same randomized 4-digit identifier shall be displayed in the DISTANCE window for 2 seconds.
CONNECTING TO A BLE HR STRAP
Once the connection to the BLE HR strap has been made, the detected heart rate value shall be displayed in the pulse window and the heart icon shall blink at the same rate as the detected heart rate. Once a connection has been made to a BT HR strap the console shall also be able to connect a smartphone app simultaneously. The behavior described above applies. Note that a connection must be made to a heart rate strap prior to establishing a connection to a smartphone if you want to connect to both simultaneously
CONNECTION RESET
If you are having an issue connecting with any device, you can try to reset the console. Resetting the console also resets the state of the connections to peripheral devices. To wake the console back up, begin pedaling. If you are pedaling during the reset, the console will blank out and then turn back on but the connection states will have been cleared. Note that it may be necessary to close and reopen any smartphone or tablet app that you would like to connect to in order to ensure that the app’s connection state has also been reset
INSTRUCTIONS OF DISPLAY
- Turn on the power, the screen will display the full screen for 1 second, then display the Bluetooth broadcast number for 1 second, and then enter the standby state
- In standby mode, if you pedal directly without setting the target exercise parameters, you will enter the sports mode. The screen will display each training parameter. Time, distance, and calorie data will be accumulated. Different icons will be displayed at the top of the screen at different exercise speeds
During exercise, in SCAN state, SPEED and RPM switch every 5 seconds. Press the MODE key to switch the display and turn on or off the SCAN function. Process: SCAN → (RPM or SPEED) → (SPEED or RPM) → SCAN
- Exercise parameter settings
In standby mode, press the MODE key, and the value of the parameter to be set will flash. At this time, press the UP or DOWN key to set it. After the setting is completed, you can pedal to start exercise or press MODE to confirm and enter the setting of the next target exercise parameter. TIME, DISTANCE, CAL, and PULSE can be set in sequence
When a parameter is set and movement is started, the movement parameter will count down. When the set motion parameter counts down to 0, the parameter will flash and the buzzer will prompt. If a target heart rate is set and the current heart rate reaches or exceeds the set target heart rate value, the current heart rate value will flash as a reminder. - Bluetooth function
This console has a built-in Bluetooth module and can be connected to Kinomap APP. Open the Kinomap app, fi nd and connect the sports equipment. When the console and APP are connected, the console will beep once, and the screen will turn off other data and only display Ble for prompts. When exercising, the exercise data will be displayed on the mobile device. When the Bluetooth connection is disconnected, the meter will reset again
Bluetooth heart rate
This console supports Bluetooth heart rate function. Wear the Bluetooth heart rate device correctly. When the console establishes a connection with the Bluetooth heart rate device, the exercise heart rate data will be transmitted to the meter and displayed on the console.
