Pictures of the TIMEX GPS+HR modified for use with a saddled horse. Lead wires are attached to the transmitter strip contacts. Lead electrodes are placed under the saddle and girth. For full design details and the test reports go to www.vmaxept.com. I also use this kit for use with ANY standard human HRM strip style transmitter, we are using this setup on all the monitors we ride with. This mod also applies to the GARMIN 301/305 HRM Transmitter

1 timex-hr-gps-trans-elec The complete TIMEX Bodylink GPS+HR human system with test 1 electode adaptors and lead wires. These were too large
2 timex-trans-ele1 Shows the back of the TIMEX transmitter with the full cover electrode patch
3 timex-trans-ele2 Front view with electrode patch over the contacts. Dropped this method too large and cost too much
4 timex-trans-ele3 The final electode method as of 11/13/03. I think the use of the small dot snap on electrodes along with the waterproof tape of the exposed contact of the trans offers the best method
5 trans-cs-ele1 This is the standard human HRM strip transmitter with the electodes attached. This setup will work with ANY hrma HRM chest strap belt transmitter
