Operation Manual Ergometer
Structure of Programs Type er900

Pay attention to the execution of the program when programming. Determine the pa-
rameters for the various patient groups before you begin to program. Select alarm and
load parameters according to average strength characteristics of patient groups. Se-
lect parameter values such that most individuals in the group require no parameter
changes and those that may become necessary are minor. Reserve a program, prefer-
ably program 8, for special patients that require an individualized program. Here, you
can create experimental programs suited to the patient’s specific requirements. To make
such an experimental program, set all of the parameters for the selected program (e.g.
program 8) to minimum or maximum values, i.e. 0 or 999, so that all automatic control
functions are turned off. Then you can enter the actually desired values for this specific
ergometry just before starting the session.

F For special ergometrics, setup one program (e.g. program 8) as experi-
mental with all maximum or minimum parameter values.

You should write your program on one of the programming forms before entering the
program on the console of the ergometer. The programming form is an aid that helps
the operator maintain an overview of the various parameters. The program forms also
represent a permanent record of the programs that are available if the unit should mal-
function. You will find blank programming forms in the appendix to this manual.

F Write your programs on the program forms (as found in the appendix to
this manual) before entering them in the console of the ergometer. This
contributes to clarity and proper record keeping.
