Cybex 800S Stepper Owner’s Manual
2. Press Advanced Options.
3. If there's an existing custom program on this 800S Stepper, it is
displayed; if there isn't, the workout graph is blank.
Now you choose the setting for the first segment of the program. Press the up arrow to
raise the setting or the down arrow to lower it. When the height is correct, press Enter to
move to the next segment. The display scrolls to the left as you move through the program.
4. Repeat this process for each segment of the program: use the arrow keys to set the
height, then press Enter to move to the next segment.
5. If the program has less than 60 segments, enter a segment with a level of 0 to end the
program.
If you make a mistake while defining the program, you can press Advanced Options
to move back to a previous segment and correct it.
6. When you're done, press Clear to save the program and leave Setup Mode.
Using a Custom Program
1. Get on the 800S Stepper.
2. Press the Advanced Options key. If you press a key somewhere else on the console, an
arrow will point toward the program keys, instructing you to select one.
Press Advanced Options until the top display reads "Custom." Press Enter.
3. The display will show the default workout length. You can change this using the up and
down arrow keys, or use the keypad to type the number of minutes you want to work out.
If you try to enter a time longer than the maximum for this 800S Stepper, it won't accept
your entry. Press Enter.
The 800S Stepper will take the workout length you enter and divide it by the number of
segments in your custom program to determine the length of each segment. For example,
if you have a program with 15 segments and enter a workout length of 30 minutes, each
segment is 2 minutes long.
4. Enter your weight. The 800S Stepper uses this to calculate how many calories you burn
during your workout, so be sure to allow for your clothing and shoes. In general, add
about five pounds to your base weight to get an accurate reading. Again, either type the
weight or use the arrow keys to raise or lower the value shown.
5. Press Start.
While you're stepping, the 800S Stepper operates just like it does during one of the preset
programs. The console shows statistics about your workout, and you can raise or lower the
overall level of the program, or pause during it, all as described in Chapter 3.
