1. GENERAL INFORMATION
The HAC4 P R O is a multi-functional device which unifies a 4 heart rate monitor, an altimeter, and a wireless cycling computer in one. That is why it is the ideal device for monitoring training. It has a 2-part display so that the functions shown on the upper display can be combined with those shown on the lower display. 4 Furthermore, the HAC4 P R O offers 3 pulse settings on the display so that the pulse can be shown with every other function. 4 The HAC4 P R O also has a storage function which offers the possibility to compare tours (evaluation is possible with any PC equipped with at least Windows 98, 2000, NT and XP with the accessory unit HACtronic). Persons who wear a cardiac pacemaker should contact their physician before using this device to measure their pulse!

2.3 Attaching the handlebar bracket and speed transmitter

The handlebar mounting can be installed on a stem. To do this the top section of the handlebar mounting must be removed from the bottom section. To make it easier to remove the top section carefully push the sides of the bottom section upwards slightly. Then turn both parts through 90 and assemble them again until the snap-on mounting engages.

2. OPERATION
Basically, the following applies: - Heart rate measurement is only possible when the breast belt is properly put on and the HAC4 P R O is not farther away from 4 the breast belt transmitter than 60 cm. - In order to be used as a cycling computer, the transmitter must 4 be properly attached and the HAC4 P R O must be properly attached to the handlebar bracket which holds the receiver for the wireless transmitter.

2.1 Inserting the batteries

When you purchase your HAC4 P R O the depending parts 4 need to be supplied with batteries. First insert the batteries type CR2032 in the HAC4 P R O, the handlebar bracket and in the 4 transmitter belt. Unscrew counter clockwise the screwed cap on 4 the reverse side of the HAC4 P R O/transmitter belt (and at top of handlebar bracket) with the aid of a coin. Insert the battery with plus pole facing up and close screw caps again. Open the battery cap of the speed transmitter also with the aid of a coin. Insert battery type 23A with plus pole facing up (to battery cap) and close cap again. Do not over twist battery caps!

Remove the backing foil from the underside of the handlebar mounting, place the handlebar mounting in the required position on the handlebar (or on the stem) and press it down slightly. Secure it with the O ring or with the cable ties Attach the transmitter by using the rubber shim and the cableties to the front side of the right fork or the back side of the left fork (the flat side of the transmitter must face towards the inside) no further than 60 cm away from the computer. Do not yet pull the cable-ties tight. Make sure that the transmitters battery cap is facing up and that the transmitter and computer are both attached to the same side of the bicycle. Attach the magnet to the spokes directly opposite to the transmitter, so that the magnet points directly to the elongated marking on the flat side of the transmitter. Be careful not to over wind the screw for attaching the magnet. Turn the transmitter so that the distance between the transmitter and the magnet is not more than 2 mm.

2.2 Putting on the breast belt

Hang the transmitter belt in the elastic breast belt and then put the breast belt around your (naked) upper torso. The transmitter Electrodes (plastic part with inscription) should be placed above the middle of your upper stomach region, slightly below the breast Transmitter and the inscription on the transmitter (when seen from the front) must be legible (pictured). Pull the belt tight so that it always is in contact with your body when moving and so that it can not slip. If the breast belt is not long enough, a longer breast belt can be acquired from your local bicycle dealer. If your skin is too cold or too dry, the electrical contact between the skin and the electrodes can be so minimal that an accurate measurement is not possible. It often helps to wet the electrodes and the skin where they are to be attached with your finger (do not wet the transmitter but only the rubber parts on the left and on the right). If this doesnt help, one should train until they start sweating. You will get the best contact by means of a special electrode-gel (available at your local pharmacy).

2.4 Attaching the cadence (optional)

Plug in the cadence cable on the respective place of the handlebar bracket. Wind the cable in a helical way round the frame in direction to the pedal (on the left side of the bike). Mount the sensor (on the end of the cable) on a suitable place opposite the crank (as near as possible) and fasten it with the cable ties. Mount the cadence magnet opposite the marking of the sensor (distance between cadence magnet and sensor max. 5 mm). If the cadence should be used, this function must be set 'on' in 4 the setting mode 1 of the HAC4 P R O (see chap. 4.1, function 'Cc').

2.5 Attaching the HAC4PRO 4 to the handlebar bracket

(the HAC4 P R O must be attached to the handlebar bracket in 4 order to be used as a bike computer) Remove the HAC4 P R O from the wristband through turning 4 counter-clockwise. Insert it in the handlebar bracket and turn it clockwise until it engages.

4. BASIC SETTINGS
The HAC4 P R O has two setting modes (these will be called 4 mode 1 and mode 2 in the following instructions). To switch to setting mode 1, press the UR-button for 4 seconds. To switch to setting mode 2, press the LR-button for 4 seconds. In order to quit a setting mode premature, press either the UR- or LR-button again for 4 seconds. The following applies to both setting modes: - Pressing the respective button (mode 1: UR; mode 2: LR) switches from one setting to the next setting. - The UL-button and the LL-button change the settings (the ULbutton increases, the LL-button decreases) and shifts or switches off. If UL- or LL-button are pressed longer than 1 second, the value changes faster.

4.1 setting mode 1

4 To check if the HAC4 P R O has been attached correctly, please turn the wheel a couple of times to see if the computer receives a signal. Last, but not least, pull the cable-ties of the speed transmitter tight and cut off what is too long. 4 To remove the HAC4 P R O from the handlebar bracket, turn it counter-clockwise.

Press the UR-button for 4 seconds: AH Altitude Home (Primary setting for altitude measurement) Set with the UL- or LL-button Standard value = ---- Setting range min. = -200m or ft x10; max.= 9000 m / 2952 ft x10
4 The HAC4 P R O is equipped with a barometric altitude measurement which automatically adjusts to changes in temperature, however it may show a variation due to changes in the air-pressure (e.g. during the night). In order to compensate these variations, you may set an altitude when starting (e.g. your home, if you always start out from there), which the HAC4 P R O uses when you start a new training round 4 (recording). This setting should be changed if you start from somewhere else (e.g. vacation). If the setting is not adjusted 4 (display ----), the HAC4 P R O uses the actual (displayed) altitude when you start a new recording.

3. USING THE BUTTONS

The HAC4 P R O display is divided into two parts: an upper part 4 and a lower part. One function is shown in each area, so that two functions can be read simultaneously. This way the possible functions on the displays can be combined as desired. The two upper buttons are for the functions in the upper display, the two lower buttons are for the functions in the two lower displays. The following applies: The right button calls up main functions, the left button calls up the accompanying sub-functions. The buttons are abbreviated as follows in the operating instructions: Upper Right button: UR-button Lower Right button: LR-button Upper Left button: UL-button (this button can be used to increase values = Plus-button) Lower Left button: LL-button (this button can be used to decrease values = Minus-button) Start/Stop-button: UL UR The functions stopwatch and countdown can be started/stopped by short pressing the start/stopbutton (while depending function is shown in the display). Short pressing means 1 second pressing, long pressing means 4 or 6 seconds pressing (as specified). Every button press raises a short signal tone.

PC PC-transmission mode Start with UL- and LL-button short simultaneously By pressing UL- and LL-button short simultaneously the transmission to the pc is started (for this you need the interface HACtronic an optional accessory ). During the transmission the lower display counts from 0 to 100%. PC-Interval Set memory interval Set with the UL- or LL-button Standard value = 20 sec. Setting range = 2, 5, 10 or 20 sec. Here the memory interval, in which the
HAC4 P R O stores data for the pc evaluation (2, 5, 10 or 20 4

Move the bike straight ahead by exactly one tire rotation (for a more precise measurement ensure tire pressures are correct and be seated on the bike) and mark the location on the floor. Now measure the distance exactly between the two markers on the floor to give you the wheel circumference (in mm)

If In is set on following display appears: W body weight Set with UL- or LL-button Standard value = 70 kg Setting range min. = 30 kg / 66 lbs, max.= 200 kg / 441 lbs The body weight is needed for the CICLOI nZone-calculation.

W tot total weight Set with UL- or LL-button Standard value = 75 kg Setting range min. = 30 kg / 66 lbs, max.= 200 kg / 441 lbs The total weight (body weight and material, e.g. equipment and bicycle) is necessary to calculate output required (the outputfunction is only displayed when used as a bike-computer) and calorie consumption. In on/oFF
CICLOI nZone-calculation on/off Select with UL- or LL-button

See also chap. 6.7 (CICLOI nZone). If In is set oFF next display shows HL 1 (upper limit for heart rate, see right page). For an exact calculation of the CICLOI nZone it is necessary to insert the personal data relative to sex, body weight, age and fitness level.

In order to calculate the CICLOI nZone position the chest belt correctly, take up a rest position (remain seated and relaxed) and start the CICLOI nZone calculation (press short UR-button, after setting the fitness level). 4 The HAC4 P R O heart rate monitor will then start to time 5 minutes. During this time, stay seated, relaxed and calm, as the HAC4 P R O will measure the minimum 4 heart rate reached during this period (heart rate at rest) and will store this value for the subsequent calculation. After the 5 minutes a signal tones. Now CICLOI nZone-calculation is ready. (To premature quit the CICLOI nZone-calculation press short UR-button). Now the lowest (measured) heart rate appears in the display. By again short pressing UR-button following display appears (back to setting mode):

HL 1 heart rate upper limit 1 Set with UL- or LL-button Standard value = 180 bpm (beats per minute) or the personal upper limit calculated with CicloInzone Setting range min. = 30 bpm; max. 240 bpm In order to better control your training, 2 different heart rate limits (lower and upper limits) can be set (or can be calculated with CICLOI nZone). In setting mode 2 you can choose which of these limits you want to use for your current training. To activate the acoustic heart rate alarm (when current heart is above or below the set limits) see chap. 5.3. These limits must also be set when using the heart rate time manager and the heart rate bargraph (see chap. 6. special functions) .

HL 1 heart rate lower limit 1 Set with UL- or LL-button Standard value = 120 bpm (beats per minute) or the personal upper limit calculated with CICLOI nZone Setting range min. = 30 bpm; max. 240 bpm HL 2 heart rate upper limit 2 Set with UL- or LL-button Standard value = 120 bpm (beats per minute) or the personal upper limit calculated with CICLOI nZone Setting range min. = 30 bpm; max. 240 bpm HL 2 heart rate lower limit 2 Set with UL- or LL-button Standard value = 100 bpm (beats per minute) or the personal upper limit calculated with CICLOI nZone Setting range min. = 30 bpm; max. 240 bpm Cd 1 Countdown 1 Set with UL- or LL-button Standard value = 10 minutes Setting range = 0 - 99.59 minutes

U4 Unit altimeter meter (m) / feet (ft x 10) Select with UL- or LL-button The unit of measure for the altitude can be set here (meter or feet).

UPL Upload Version Start with short simultaneous pressing of ULand LL-button Indicates the firmware-version of the HAC4 P R O. If there is a newer firmware 4 available for your HAC4 P R O (see 4 www.ciclosport.de), you can start the firmware upload at this point with short simultaneous pressing both left buttons (UL- and LL-button), that is only possible with the optional pc-interface and the program HACtronic. When the upload is finished correctly, normal mode appears in the display. Pd Power down-mode Switch on with short simultaneous pressing of UL- and LL-button Starts the power-saving mode (see chap. 5.3). To end the power-saving mode, press any button.

1. Countdown 1 / Countdown 2 is a stop-watch which runs backwards (see chap. 5.2, countdown function). After starting, 4 the HAC4 P R O gives a short signal when CD 1 reaches 0. Then CD 2 starts automatically, when it reaches 0 it gives short signals for 20 sec. If only one countdown is necessary, the other must be set to 0. 2. These settings are necessary when using the heart rate time manager (see chap.6. special functions). Cd 2 Countdown 2 Set with UL- or LL-button Standard value = 10minutes Setting range = 0 - 99.59 minutes

Press LR-button 4 sec. A Setting and / or re-adjusting current altitude Set with UL- or LL-button Setting range = -200m to 9000m or 2952 ft x10 The current altitude can be adjusted, if e.g. due to variations in 4 the air-pressure, the current altitude shown in the HAC4 P R O is not correct. A change in the current altitude has no effect on other altitude functions (e.g. total meters). Only if the adjusted altitude is higher than the current max. altitude, the max. altitude will be changed to the new value. DST adjust daily distance Set with UL- or LL-button Standard value = 0 km Setting range min. = 0,00 km /m; max.= 999,99 km / 621,36 m (in the display the comma is shown as a colon) The daily kilometres can be adjusted here, e.g. as a starting point in case of tours according to a tour guidebook, if the tour was not entered at "0" km. This setting does not affect the function total kilometres. There only the really ridden kilometres are counted. JS oFF/on Ski mode on/off Select with UL- or LL-button 4 If the HAC4 P R O is used while skiing, the ski speed is only calculated and indicated if this function is set 'on'. HL heart rate limit 1 / 2 Select with UL- or LL-button Here you can choose, if the current training should be within the heart rate limit 1 or the heart rate limit 2. Note: the heart rate time manager (see 6. special functions) always starts (independent from this setting) with heart rate limit 1.

5. FUNCTIONS
Important: For the HAC4 P R O to calculate and indicate all values 4 (and store them for the pc evaluation), a recording must be started (see chap. 6.1). To start the recording press both left buttons (UL- and LLbutton) simultaneous for 4 sec. (the mountain symbol in the display ' ' starts blinking as a sign of a running recording). To stop the recording press again both left buttons simultaneous 4 sec. (mountain symbol stops blinking). All minimum, maximum and average values (displayed as MIN / MAX / AV), except average and maximum speed, and all daily values (DAY,) except daily travelling time and kilometres, are only calculated when the recording is started (see chap. 6.1). If the recording is not started at the beginning of the current training, the values of the sub-functions doesn't show the current values, they show the values of the last recording.
4 The HAC4 P R O is equipped with 2 modes: 'bike mode' (when you insert the HAC4 P R O on the handlebar bracket it 4 automatically switches to the bike-mode) and 'no-bike mode' (e.g. while running or skiing). By short pressing both right buttons 4 (UR- and LR-button), the HAC4 P R O switches to the bike mode for 5 minutes, even when it is not on the handlebar bracket. This way you can recall the bike values at any time. 4 Not all functions are available in all modes. If the HAC4 P R O is used without being on the handlebar bracket ('no-bike mode'), some functions are missing.

M Month Set with UL- or LL-button Setting range = 1 - 12 Set the current month.

d Day Set with UL- or LL-button Setting range = 1 - 31 (depending to the month) Set the current date of day.

5.3 General functions

Heart rate automatic If the HAC4PRO does not receive a signal from the transmitter belt within 5 minutes (e.g. transmitter belt or receiver are out of 4 range ), the heart rate receiver of the HAC4 P R O turns automatically off (symbol ' ' disappears in the display). The receiver turns on, when the function 'current heart rate' is chosen again in the display. Light/Light manager By pressing LL-button 4 sec. the light is switched on for 5 sec. By pressing LL-button 6 sec. the light manager is activated. I.e. in the next 8 hours light is switched on for 5 sec. automatically with every button press. To deactivate the light manager press again LL-button 6 sec. Note: Light requires a lot of battery power, so if you use it very often, battery life will be reduced.

Average performance (only in bike mode) Sub-function of function 'Current performance'. Indicates the average performance in Watt of the current tour. Range: 0 - 9980 W (in steps of 20 W)

11

Clock alarm (see setting mode 2, chap. 4.2) The time for the clock alarm can be set in setting mode 2. When this time has been reached, a signal tones 20 sec. (to premature turn off the signal press any button). The clock alarm is switched on/off in setting mode 2, function 'CA'. Heart rate graphics (Bargraph) The HAC4PRO has a coloured graphic in the middle of the display (7 blue boxes and 2 red boxes). If the current heart rate reaches the set lower heart rate limit, the first (left) blue box turns black. Depending on the intensity of the current heart rate, all blue boxes turn black from left to right. If the current heart rate is above the set upper heart rate limit, the two red boxes will also turn black, to show that your heart rate is out of the limit. This graphic helps you to control your heart rate, even when upper or lower display show other functions. Heart rate alarm The heart rate alarm is activated/deactivated by pressing UL-button for 4 sec. Display shows the symbol , if activated. Activated heart rate alarm: a signal tones if the current heart rate is above or below the set heart rate limits. Battery warning signal 4 If the battery power of the HAC4 P R O is lower than 2,8 V, display shows bat low every 5 sec. Battery should then be changed.

6. SPECIAL FUNCTIONS
6.1 Information memory function (recording)
Important: For the HAC4PRO to calculate and indicate all values (and store them for the pc evaluation), a recording must be started (see below). The HAC 4 P R O can store information from max. 120 hours training (when memory interval is set to 20 sec.). For this a recording must be started (by pressing UL- and LL-button simultaneous for 4 sec.). During this recording all important information such as heart rate, altitude, temperature, cadence, time, speed, output and travelled distance are stored in short intervals (every 2, 5, 10 or 20 sec., interval chosen in setting mode 1). This information can be transmitted to a PC (with the optional available interface HAC tronic and its programs). On the PC you can show these data e.g. on graphics, make an evaluation, print statistics and so on. The memory is a ring buffer, i.e. if it is full, it starts from the beginning: the first stored tour is overwritten, then the second and so on. When a recording is started, the symbol ' ' starts blinking in the lower display and blinks until the recording is stopped manually by pressing again UL- and LL-button simultaneous for 4 sec. (or stops automatically, see below). When a recording is started, all minimum, maximum, average and daily values are set to 0 and current altitude changes to the value set by 'AH' (altitude home, see setting mode 1; if AH is not set, current altitude remains unchanged). The tours stored in the memory can't be deleted, they can only be overwritten by new tours. Note: All minimum, maximum and average values (displayed as MIN / MAX / AV), except average and maximum speed, and all daily values (DAY,) except daily travelling time and kilometres, are only calculated when the recording is started. If the recording is not started at the beginning of the current training, the display doesn't indicate the current values it indicates the values of the last (recorded) training. In order to save memory space and battery, the recording stops automatically after a certain period (e.g. 24 hours when memory interval is set to 20 sec.).

Power-saving mode (Power down mode, see setting mode 1, chap. 4.1) 4 The HAC4 P R O can be switched into power-saving mode, i.e. the display will go blank, however it retains all stored data (apart from time and date). This mode is appropriate e.g. when 4 changing the battery, or when the HAC4 P R O is not used for a longer period. 4 To switch the HAC4 P R O into the power saving mode, choose function Pd in setting mode 1. Then press UL- and LL-button short simultaneous. To leave the power saving mode, press any button.

6.2 Heart rate/ time manager (HTM)

The HTM is turned on/off in the setting mode 2 (see chap. 4.2 ). To start/stop the HTM press short start/stop-button when display shows countdown function (in the lower display). In order to use the HTM the following values must be entered in the setting mode: Upper and lower heart rate limit 1 Upper and lower heart rate limit 2 Countdown 1 Countdown 2 The HTM allows an interval training in 2 consecutive time intervals (Countdown 1 and 2) and with 2 different heart rate limits (heart rate limit 1 and 2). Example: Set values: Lower heart rate limit 1 = 120 Upper heart rate limit 1 = 160 Countdown 1 = 30 min. Lower heart rate limit 2 = 80 Upper heart rate limit 2 = 120 Countdown 2 = 5 min.
12

By starting the countdown 1 you can train for 30 min. within the heart rate limit 1. After these 30 min. a short signal tones and countdown 2 is starting (with heart rate limit 2). Now you can recuperate within the time of countdown 2 and then train again with countdown 1 and so on. When one countdown is finished, a short signal tones and the next countdown starts automatically. The countdowns are starting consecutively, until this function is stopped by short pressing the start/stop-button. The countdowns are only counting, when the current heart rate is within the depending heart rate limit. If the current heart rate is above or below this limit, the countdown pauses automatically until the current heart rate is again within the set limit.

6.5 Heart rate limit/time memory

The following functions are possible by using the set heart rate limits: - Define two different heart rate limits and choose one of them for your current training. - Display your current heart rate within these limits on a heart rate graphics (see 5.3). - The heart rate limit/time memory shows the training time within, above and below the set limits (see 5.2). - If the heart rate alarm is activated, a signal tone warns when the current heart rate is above or below the set heart rate limits ( see 5.3).

6.3 Recuperating heart rate

This function can help you to define your own physical fitness. The recuperating heart rate is measured 3 minutes after this function is started. The more your heart rate recuperates (= the lower it is), the better is your physically fitness. This measurement can only be used, when a recording is started (see chap. 6.1). Example: Current heart rate has reached 170 e.g. after a long ascent. By short and simultaneous pressing UL- and LL-button this function is started. A short signal tones at the start. To get an exact measurement, stay calm and relaxed for the next 3 minutes. After these 3 minutes, the signal tones again and the measurement is complete. Now the measured recuperating heart rate can be indicated in the sub-function of function 'current heart rate' in the upper display (see chap. 5.1). There the upper display indicates the heart rate at start time and the lower display indicates the recuperating heart rate (measured 3 minutes after the start). This measurement can be done as often as desired (and can also be shown graphically on the PCevaluation).

6.6 Setting markings

With the HAC4 P R O it is possible to set markings during a 4 recording (distance of min. 2 minutes between two markings when memory interval is set to 20 sec.) These markings are helpful when using the pc-evaluation (with the interface HACtronic). With this you can mark special points during the training, e.g. when having a break, reaching the top of a mountain and so on. Markings are set in the same way as recuperating heart rate measuring is started by pressing UL- and LL-button short and simultaneously.

6.7 CICLOInZone-Philosophy and use

CICLOI nZone is a solution for the very best personalisation of your training routine. It is possible to calculate the optimum training threshold with the CICLOI nZone function on the basis of your personal data and your pulse rate when at rest. CICLOI nZone is the ideal solution for personalised cardio training applied to any sport, from jogging and cross-country running to road and indoor cycling. Improve your fitness? Lose weight? Train whilst always taking your health into consideration? Everyone will find the correct aim to follow in their training. But how do you train to achieve those aims in the most efficient possible manner? How do you find the right intensity of effort during the training? CICLOI nZone is the optimum training ZONE for effort, resistance and weight loss.

6.4 Time / distance comparison

This function allows you to compare training rounds over the same course. The display shows if you are actually faster or slower than the training round you are comparing. Using this function: - First choose the tour (see 5.2) you would like to compare. - The course must be identical to the comparison course. - Start the comparison at the beginning of the tour by pressing the UL- and LL-button simultaneously for 4 seconds (coincidentally the recording is started). - The displays shows the time difference in comparison to the chosen tour. If it is a negative value, you are riding slower as on the chosen tour. - When the course is finished, the HAC4PRO stops automatically and indicates the total difference in time. To cancel the comparison premature, press again UL- and LL-button simultaneous for 4 sec. (coincidentally the recording is stopped). - In order to compare tours, these tour must be previously ridden (and stored). The information from any course can be stored and compared. Note: A chosen tour stays chosen until the comparison function shows '----' again (even when in between other functions are shown on the display).

What does CICLOI nZone do? It calculates the optimum training zone for effort, resistance and weight loss. The values vary from person to person and they offer a valid training support - always staying between 70% and 85% of the maximum heart rate. (+/- 5% of tolerance, taking into consideration the actual heart rate when at rest and the level of training). The question of burning fat is seen in the correct light with
CICLOI nZone on the basis of the personal data collected.
