Heart rate

The PS-500 reads and records your heart rate from the changes in light

reflected through the blood vessels in your wrist.

Calories

PULSENSE calculates the actual burned calories based upon the body motion

and the heart rate information, which is related very closely to the calories

burned, enabling more detailed calorie calculation. When heart rate

measurement is disabled, the PS-500 will calculate calories based on body

motion only.

Steps

Records the number of steps and calculates the distance using the

accelerometer to measure your body movement. This function enables you to

consciously track your general activity, so you can make small changes to

become more active.

Distance

The distance is calculated approximately from the step count and your height.

Note:

Irregular arm movements may effect the reading on the steps and distance counters.

The heart rate zone display

PULSENSE monitors your heart rate across 5 zones, as detailed below. This is displayed on LEDs on the device,

you can also set a vibration alert. See 'How to Use' section for details.
