ISOKINETIC MODE for tests with constant cadence that allow maximum power and full workout tests at different cadences. The cyclist determines the power output, the Ergo keeps the cadence constant. 
HYPERBOLIC MODE for step- and ramp tests and tests with constant power for a long time. The cyclist can choose his optimum cadence, the Ergo keeps the power constant. 
All measured data are shown online on the computer screen and after the test all data are saved. The evaluation of data can be done with the srmwin software. With a simple editor any kind of tests are programmable. Shortest interval of one step is 1 sec.
