Polar FT2 Heart Rate Monitor

The Polar FT2 heart rate monitor is a basic training computer for those who just want to monitor their heart rate while exercising or while performing other daily activities.

The extra large digits make for easy viewing. The "Automatic Age-Based Target Zone" is an added feature over the FT1 heart rate monitor.

It records your average and maximum heart rate and displays a summary of your latest workout.

Body measurement features

Automatic age-based target zone – bpm

• To help you train safely and effectively, the training computer automatically determines your heart rate target zone limits according to your age-based maximum heart rate (220 minus age). The limits are determined in beats per minute (bpm).

Average and maximum heart rate of training

Heart rate – bpm

• Heart rate is the measurement of the work your heart does. Heart rate is expressed as the number of beats per minute (bpm).

HR-based target zones with visual and audible alarm

• You can define your target zones for a training session based on heart rate to help define the right intensity. When you are out of the preset zones, the training computer will give a visual and audible alarm.

Manual target zone – bpm

• This feature enables you to manually enter the target zone that is suitable for your training. You can set the target zone for your training as beats per minute (bpm).

Polar OwnCode® (5kHz) – coded transmission

• Coded heart rate transmission automatically locks in a code to transmit your heart rate to the training computer. The training computer picks up your heart rate from your transmitter only. Coding prevents interference from other training computers.
