Key
Features of Polar CS300 heart rate monitor
- Polar
OwnCal - calorie expenditure
- Polar
OwnZone - automatic calculation of training zone intensity
with audible and visual alarms - The Polar CS300 allows you to let
the heart rate monitor set your training zone for you. This is generally
about 65-85% of Max HR. The training zone is determined by the watch
following a 5 minute walking / jogging test. You may choose to accept
this zone or use your own manually prescribed one for your own personally
set heart rate training zone (BPM or %MaxHR)
- Multiple
Heart Rate Training Zones with audible and visual alarm - The Polar
CS300 allows the user to autoset 4 x heart rate zones, hard (80-90%
max HR), moderate (70-80%), light (60-70%) and basic (65-85%). Plus,
the user has the ability to add their own MANUAL zone (x 1)
- Polar
Cadence providing accurate pedal revs per minute. This is an optional
extra on the CS300. Also features a CADENCE ALARM so the user
can set a required cadence threshold, i.e 80 - 95 rpm with audible
alarm when over or under max / min cadence.
- Cycling
Intensity - a calculation that gives a kcal/h rate.
- Polar

pressing to toggle through these displays quickly and easily)
- Speed
: Distance, Speed and heart rate
- Cadence
: Current speed, average speed, alternating, Cadence and heart rate
- Duration
: Total expended calories, session duration and heart rate
- Time
: Estimated time of arrival (based on cycling speed), time of day
and heart rate
- Zone
Pointer : In Zone pointer and time spent in training zone, lower
/ upper limit values and heart rate
- Energy
Output / Calorie Consumption : (only when in cycling mode).
This tells the user how quickly they are burning calories. Also
displays average heart rate, energy output (cal/km) and calorie
consumption (cal/h) plus heart rate.
- Timers
: Timer 1 or Timer 2 displayed, plus time left and heart rate.
- Graphical
Comparison : (only when in cycling mode). In this mode there
are 3 bars on the display, each bar made of about 12 segments. These
segments are used to represent current heart rate versus max HR,
Speed (1 block = 3mph / 5kmh to a max of 50kmh or 30mph) and Cadence
(1 block = 30 rpm to a max of 150 rpm)
