POLAR GLOSSARY
Coded heart rate transmission: Polar T61™ transmitter automatically locks in a code to transmit your heart rate to your wrist receiver. In coded transmission the receiver accepts heart rate from your transmitter only. Coding significantly reduces crosstalk caused by other users of heart rate monitors. However, it does not necessarily reduce all environmental interference.
Electrodes: The grooved areas of the transmitter, against the skin. Pick up the heart’s electrical impulses.
Heart rate: The number of heart beats per minute (bpm)
Heart rate variability: Fluctuations of interbeat intervals.
Heart rate variability of a healthy subject is in general large in resting conditions and during light exercise. Heart rate variability gradually disappears when exercise becomes more intense and heart rate increases.
Target zone, TZ: The area between the upper and lower target zone limits. Can be defined automatically by Polar heart rate monitor or manually by yourself.
