with _ _ representing the number of seconds
for the Play period. Use the Step Buttons to set
the Play period from 10 to 90 seconds. Press the
Save Button. The display will now show b_ _. Use
the Step Buttons to choose how long you want
your Break period to be - from 10 to 50 seconds.
Then press the Save Button again. The display will
become blank, and the Cycle LED will go off. Your
Cycle settings have now been saved into memory
and are preserved when turning power off.
To begin Cycle play, press the Cycle Button
briefly and the Cycle LED will light up and begin
flashing (display will be blank). Cycle function can
be played while in either Memory Mode or Normal
Mode. Whatever Exercise is showing on the Con-
trol Panel will be played during the Play period.
Press Start to begin playing your Exercise with
Cycle activated. 5 seconds before the end of the
Break period, the motors will start spinning to
signal you to get ready for the next Play period.
The Cycle LED flashes during both the Play and
Break periods of the cycle. To exit the Cycle
function, briefly push the Cycle Button and the Cycle LED will go off.
Calibration
All robots differ to some degree as all motors can vary from the manufacturer, but even more so as
they age. In addition, the wheels will wear differently depending upon use. Calibration harmonizes the
mechanics (the Head and Base) with the electronics (the Control Panel). This is especially important if
the Control Panel or Head are replaced.
To check Calibration, first hold both Ball 1 and Ball 7 Buttons down at the same time (alternatively,
you can also power off/on the robot). This will revert all settings to Basic Ball settings. Only Ball 1 LED
should be lit. Press Start and observe where the balls are landing. If necessary, rotate the head left
or right to make balls land close to the centerline. If balls are not landing along the centerline about
46–69 cm (18–27 inches) from the endline (a little past the mid-point from table net to endline), the
ball’s flight path bends to the left or right because of sidespin, the robot adds topspin or backspin to
the balls, or balls travel very low or quite high over the net, then please calibrate the robot as follows:
1.
Activate Calibration by holding down both Trajectory Buttons (3 & 4) at the same time. CA will show
on the display to indicate Calibration has been activated.
2.
If the speed is too weak, use the right Speed Button (12); or if too strong, use the left Speed Button
(11).
3.
If the throwing height is too low, increase the height by using the upper Trajectory Button (3); or if
too high, decrease the height by using the lower Trajectory Button (4).
