Preliminary The FIT1 is a RF-only module, which operates on the 2.4 GHz license-free band and is capable of bidirectional communication. The FIT1e includes the FIT1 functionality but also incorporates an electromagnetic (EM) receiver coil that is capable of receiving 5 kHz inductive pulses from legacy HRM transmitters. The intention is for either module to be pre-certified as intentional transmitters, providing customers with ease of integration and reduced time to market.
Preliminary 3.2 Fitness Equipment States It is important for the FIT1/e to know the state of the fitness equipment. The fitness equipment state determines when the FIT1/e will search for devices and allows the FIT1/e to send control messages (start/stop) to a paired watch. These functions are handled by the FIT1/e in order to: 1) Simplify the implementation for fitness equipment manufacturers. 2) Provide a consistent end-user experience across different fitness equipment implementations.
Preliminary 2) receives watch files, and 3) begins broadcasting FE data to the watch FINISHED – This state applies when the user stops a workout session, either to pause or to finish. The FIT1e remains paired. If there is a watch paired, the FIT1e sends a message to stop the watch’s chronometer. 4 FIT1/E INTERFACE 4.1 Electrical Interface 0.050” (1.
Preliminary 4. For large consoles (width greater than about 1.5’ or 45 cm), the FIT1/e should be located in the middle third of the console, not to the right or left sides. This requirement helps to ensure that the FIT1/e pairs with the user on the equipment and not a neighbor or passer-by. Please see Figure 2 for details. For the FIT1e to achieve optimal EM range, place the FIT1e as close to the user as possible within the console. 5.
Preliminary Figure 3 - FIT1e Keepouts and Major Components 4.3 FIT1/e Orientation inside Fitness Equipment Console The module orientation is an important factor to mounting the FIT1/e. Acceptable orientations differ between FIT1 and FIT1e, as a result of EM functionality. As there are many factors that affect radiation patterns the best results can be achieved by experimenting with the orientations on an individual device basis.
Preliminary To comply with FCC regulations, it is required that fitness equipment containing the FIT1/e display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label must use wording similar to the following: “Contains FCC ID: O6RFIT1” (note: First Character is the letter O, not the # 0) This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and may cause harmful interference to radio communications if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions.
