Polar Precision Software - Data Editing

[Kendall]

Is there an easy way to edit Polar Data downloaded from your HRM using Polar Precision Software. I'm
using the latest software and its editing is very cumbersome and funky. What I'd like to do is
export the data table into Word or Excel for editing, then go back and import it into the Polar
Precision Software. I haven't figured out how to import the edited data. I am using an Xtrainer Plus
and the altitude cuts out know and then. Any guidance or experience would be appreciated.

You can open de .hrm file in Notepad and look for the -999 (I suppose) values in the altitude
column. Correct these values and save the file under the same name. Just open the edited .hrm file
in the Polar software. BTW did you tried the use a piece of aluminium foil between the X-trainer
Plus end the altitudesensor (bad design) to avoid altitude cuts?

Thanks I'll try that. No I didn't use the foil. It is a bad design and it get worse with age. The
sensor uses these expensive batteries too fast too. Kendall
