What is the weight used to calibrate the Monark bike?
The rubber plates are included in the calibrated weight of the 1 kg weight basket.
How do you calibrate an ergometer?
Calibrating the Calibrator Turn on the power switch and re-level the calibrator. Set the display selection switch to Watts or kg*m and adjust the reading to zero with the dial knob. Remove the weight. Now the set-up is ready for calibration of the ergometer.
How do you set up the Monark bike for an exercise test?
Connect external device via RS232 Make sure the power adaptor is connected to the bike Turn off the power switch on the bike. The RS232 port is located on Monark novo control unit behind the left side front cover. Connect the RS232 first to Monark novo control unit in the bike and then to the external device.
What is KP on Monark bike?
Kilopond (kp) are for Monark cycle ergometers (6 m/rev) at 50 rpm.
How do you calculate watts on a cycle ergometer?
If you have 2 kp of resistance and are pedalling with 60 RPM the work equals: W = 2 x 60 x 6 = 720 kpm/min (kilopond meter per minute). To calculate the power output, you will have to convert kpm/min to Newtons per minute (N/min) P = (720 kmp/min x 9.81) / 60 seconds = 118 W.
How is resistance measured on a Monark bike?
The Monark bikes use a friction-braked ergometer. The frictional force is generated by a belt sliding against a rotating fly-wheel, which is balanced and measured by a hanging weight. Repco – On Repco ergometers, vanes around a flywheel create air resistance.
How do you find the wattage on a Monark bike?
To calculate the power output, you will have to convert kpm/min to Newtons per minute (N/min) P = (720 kmp/min x 9.81) / 60 seconds = 118 W. This can easily be simplified and approximated as: Power output = Braking load x RPM P = 2 kp x 60 RPM = 120 W.
What is Native Instruments Monark?
MONARK is a virtual synth with a dynamic, analog heart – designed to be played one note at a time to truly savor its bold, fat tone. Every aspect of the complex interaction of complex analog circuits to the behavior of the filter when overloaded was meticulously studied and recreated using cutting-edge DSP technology.
What is a Monark ergometer?
