Polar Advantage InterfaceTM and Polar Performance SoftwareTM
Advantage Interface The ultimate system (with the Vantage NVTM HRM) for transferring real time and stored heart rate information to PC for storage and further analysis.
The Polar Advantage Interface™ unit is a communication device that connects to a personal computer. It can download recorded heart rate and timing data from a Polar Heart Rate Monitor by simply placing the wrist receiver on the interface unit and launching the transfer of data from a PC. Communication between the interface unit and the wrist receiver is achieved wirelessly. The Polar Advantage Interface™ unit is the most advanced system being capable to transfer real time heart rate data to PC and to program the Polar Vantage NV™ wrist receiver.
Polar Advantage Interface™ unit is easily plugged into a standard serial port, and the Polar Precision Performance Software takes care of the rest.
Polar Precision PerformanceTMSoftware
This software facilitates the easy transfer and record keeping of Heart Rate data captured by a Polar Heart Rate Monitor, in a user friendly Windows environment. It is also capable to programme the time and training settings of one or several Polar Vantage NV™ wrist receivers. The application offers the normal analysis, comparison and tracking of training progress for a number of individuals in several teams, by integrating a graphical analyses tool with an easy to use, flexible training log, sports diary and planner.
The analysis tools are designed keeping in mind very demanding users. The unique R-to-R recording feature of Polar Vantage NV™ is elaborated with flexible and powerful editing and advanced analysis. R-to-R recording is also the key to a new overtraining test developed at the Research Institute for Olympic Sports in Jyväskylä, Finland. It allows even daily follow-up of always so important recovery in field conditions. The software has not only a set of tests built-in, but allows users to create test protocols according to their preferences.
The software has a host of reporting functions to view training progress and results in many different forms, including export/import functions to and from other Windows applications.
