and we can celebrate
' boro conditions. I see a lightening sky but the feel is cool to chilly [ went for the paper, expert testimony, there ]
but no undue circumstances etc arise
Exercise is done and so am I. Usually, mid afternoon [ give or take ] is workout time. However, I'm having lunch at the Noodle thus, early or late
and putting off the deed runs the risk of being postponed if some problem occurs
I've survived some glitches w/ the heart rate monitor. I swapped out batteries, cleaned the leads and swore. A lot of the later happened.
THEN I checked the ' sensor ' file. All was good. One click and a coloured line appeared ' connect to BluTooth '
Say what ? Yes, apparently, by accident or action, the BluTooth function can be switched ' off '.
To be fair. There are instructions [ hints ] about the significance of the dual LED lights - red and blue, on the actual chest strap.
BUT and big but at that is - you need to observe the sequence of the colour flashes, and note frequency of the flashing - this will tell you what the sensor is doing
Oh, Yeah ! I'm really into that
Further, I was thinking that the chest monitor was at fault b/c the flashing seemed to stop rather quickly. And to save battery, the LED lights self terminate at 30 seconds [ news to me, b/c I never watch the LED s while exercising ]
Long story for a roughly, happy ending. And while searching for answers, I discovered that the chest monitor is approx 4 years old from purchase date.
How long can I expect the contraption to last?Best guess is El finito in a year or two. Significantly, that would be stellar performance from a heart rate monitor.
Truthfully, the device is used approx 180 times a year. So ballpark calculation says 700 interactions.
OK. As reported here, the data that I get varies very little from day to day. And the ugly truth is that even pushing myself [ or so I think ] those values are consistent.
Disappointing and a testament to reality. Reality really does suck
